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.

@FeltCarrot

Do we really have to see a grown man in a rainbow unicorn onesie?
Hi light of the episode IMO. The onesie out-acted all of them.
FeltCarrot · 21/10/2020 20:12

I suppose the onesie was marginally better than the grey trackie bottoms he usually wears. 😂

JamieLeeCurtains · 21/10/2020 20:26

Archdeacon-in-Waiting Billy and Todd really should just feck off, possibly with Bishop Brennan, and get a room. A big room. Far, far away.

Roussette · 21/10/2020 20:34

Oh I do find this annoying, Billy, Todd and whatshisname

Dear god when is this Leanne and Oliver story going to finish. It is tedious. I feel horrible saying that, but it is

FeltCarrot · 21/10/2020 20:35

Why are they all wandering in and out of each other’s houses? Manchester has been under local restrictions for months! 😷

Smallsteps88 · 21/10/2020 20:38

As if it wasn’t already, this is getting far far too like the CG case. The media involved now?

JamieLeeCurtains · 21/10/2020 20:40

Oh god, here we go. The journalist storyline with Oliver.

Perilously close to CG and AE. Can't be doing with it.

PoloNeckKnickers · 21/10/2020 20:46

Who was wearing the unicorn onesie? It sounds like the most exciting thing that's happened in Corrie since Phelan carked it.

Smallsteps88 · 21/10/2020 20:47

Paul was Grin

PoloNeckKnickers · 21/10/2020 20:56

Thank God it wasn't Steve.

Smallsteps88 · 21/10/2020 21:00
Grin

Or Tim

woodhill · 21/10/2020 21:31

Paul reminds me of the Gruffalo, so sick of Billy bag and Gemma looks dreadful

A gruffalo? What's a gruffalo? Grin
JamieLeeCurtains · 21/10/2020 21:50

I think it's very weird that the Corrie director(s) made Gemma look like that. Their point?

Smallsteps88 · 21/10/2020 22:00

Her make up was particularly bad tonight. But I know that’s because the actress was probably doing it herself. Was so awful though. I didn’t get the outfit. It’s the rovers in lockdown. Not a rave! Confused

eggandonion · 21/10/2020 22:09

Our sky box decided it needed complicated reset done, and I have missed the unicorn onesie. I'm going to have to watch it tomorrow, it sounds amazing. Are there no writers or producers around, its bonkers.

SoPanny · 22/10/2020 07:08

Has nobody mentioned Dev’s bomber jacket?

It looked like he was dressing up.

lollipoprainbow · 22/10/2020 07:36

The Todd gulping was off the scale tonight ! Leanne was a nightmare as usual, Gemma looked ridiculous how can they give her a job when they barely have any customers! Eileen is back to her weak acting again.

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 22/10/2020 07:50

Corrie was like a stupid sitcom last night. That onesie 🙄 what is Paul, Billy's cuddly toy?
Billy is definitely gonna shag Todd unfortunately for Paul.
There was absolutely nothing interesting in the whole two episodes last night, but I've got to say I thought little Sam was quite cute!

Roussette · 22/10/2020 08:28

Haha yes Dev did look like he was dressing up!

And it is like a bad sitcom. Does anyone know if Emmerdale and 'Stenders are just as bad because of Covid?

Where have all the good scriptwriters gone? When the hell are they going to do the Yasmeen Geoff storyline?

I presume it is so disjointed because they've got the cast coming in, in shifts. This week is Billy, Todd, Eileen etc.
Aliya Yasmeen Geoff are Christmas

MsMiaWallace · 22/10/2020 08:45

Gemma looks like she's had a boob job!!

The best bit of acting last night was probably Natasha telling Gail she's 'tapped'.
Personally I'd have told her to F off but good on Natasha.

thenightsky · 22/10/2020 11:18

I'm amazed Dev is still in it to be honest. His acting is off the scale dreadful. I cringe for him.

TheFormerPorpentinaScamander · 22/10/2020 11:22

Was Dev's acting always that bad? I used to really like him, when Sunita was still alive. I don't remember him being awful then.

Roussette · 22/10/2020 12:41

Gemma's outfit was ridiculous. They probably have 2 customers a day. One for a takeaway hotpot and one for a bottle of wine.
She looked like she was off for a night on the lash!

Yes, Dev's acting has always been pretty suspect!

frewer · 22/10/2020 14:54

I have watched Coronation Street Corrie since episode 1, the only times I missed it was before the invention of video recorders.

Last night at 8.45pm I admitted defeat, I can stand no more!

I love reading this thread, but rarely post, so I'm hoping to get certain bits of information from you lovely lot, such as what happens to Geoff, and when, if ever, the acting/storylines improve.

Thanks to you all for laughs along the way. Wine Cheers!
