NEW Corrie thread - will Leanne ‘lawyer up’? Will Geoff get what’s coming? Will the Baileys learn to act? *NO SPOILERS PLEASE*

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

Old thread full, so here we go again.

Going back to the last point on the old thread, I agree that they’re writing well for Tracy now. She’s still got her hard side, but they’ve made her caring in a straight talking way, rather than just a full-on bitch.

Oh wow!

That is fantastic. I am so delighted to hear that Geoff is turning this storyline into something so positive.
This is when Corrie does excellent stuff and it helps others.

Roussette it's a beautiful moving song, written and performed by Ian.
The video is directed by his wife, Loveday. It's really very good

I'll go and hunt it out!

That is so powerful. Especially the statistics at the end.

Well done him.

That brought a tear to my eye.

The child actor (I'm assuming) has the surname Bartholomew too.

The song and the video are brilliant. And it's so good that it focuses on violence against women without a nod to the "what about men" brigade.

Statistics at the end of that video:

In the UK over 1.6 million women and children experience domestic abuse every year

The police receive more than 100 calls an hour relating to incidents of domestic violence.

On average, one woman is killed every four days by a current or former partner.

During the first two weeks of lockdown, this more than doubled.

That is very moving. My God those statistics are horrifying.

Aren't they just? They never get better.

Somehow he is nastier than Phelan, because he's in a home, and in a head. It must be a difficult role.

But how great he's done something with that storyline that matters.

What fresh horror is going to confront us tonight, home from a socially distanced drink to tune in!

I see Jason's scar has completely healed.

Todd gulped again. That's his repertoire.

Gangster man looks like Sean Ryder’s skinny brother.

Major sound effects with the gulp this time too. Rewound it and made myself feel quite ill

Think he’s from Chumbawumba. He gets knocked down but he gets up again.

What the four and a half is going on

I've been drinking so this makes no sense

Male model with a man bun has it shaved off by Shona?!

Craigy!

Just a stupid storyline- someone from Chelsea seems to have appeared in Corrie wanting a haircut. You need a drink to watch this!

This is hilarious.

honeyroar good job I'm pissed have taken a thimble full of wine

@Honeyroar

Think he’s from Chumbawumba. He gets knocked down but he gets up again.

Brilliant!

He reminds me of someone but I can’t think who.

Amazing that Craigy is not only a policeman but a detective too!

They're not looking very hard for Todd, are they? No sooner are they out the door than he's halfway down the stairs. They must be able to hear him gulping behind them as the door closes.
