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.

You’d think he’d try and disguise his voice when doing a robbery!!

Oh dear god could this BE any worse?

@Roussette

Bit violent tonight?! Jonny bashed on the head by whatshisname. Armed raid at Ray's...

what's going on

I'm not bothered, but Craig's bound to be shot and Jonny will stagger in and Gary will save the day and buy a sinkhole and Faye will marry Craig and Jenny will book a spa day and Detective Haircut will reappear.

I think you've nailed it there!

Dr Howarth clearly wants to clock Leanne one.

I hope Craig is ok, Shona didn't seem too badly hurt and now look at her.

Yes but Ken got pushed down the stairs and is fine now. Michelle walked away from a stabbing. Your odds are generally good in Corrie!

Yes to Gail’s constant whispering and yes to armed robber not bothering to disguise his voice.

@Honeyroar

You’d think he’d try and disguise his voice when doing a robbery!!

And would involve more than 2 players!

@JamieLeeCurtains

I'm fairly confident that high stakes poker games don't get underway while Roy is still closing up his caff.

And would involve more than 2 players! (Oops, chose wrong post to quote before)

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I’m weeks behind in Canada so just seeing new head Todd and ... is it just me or does he sound not-Mancunian at times? Not Lloyd levels of Liverpudlian, but a bit west of Wetherfield?

The actor is Welsh, I've seen him in a couple of Welsh language shows. I was looking forward to seeing him when I heard he'd been cast as Todd because he was one of my favourites in a show called Caerdydd. Now I'm wondering if I was too busy reading the subtitles to notice how bad his acting was! gulp

Summer is getting a new head. Billy will be back on the drugs at this rate...

Has Ray lost weight? He's looking quite trim lately whereas when he first appeared I remember him as being on the chunky side.

Are we thinking that Billy & Todd are gonna get together again?

It would freak me out if all the people around me had new heads. Stuff of nightmares.

Beth is looking well

@eggandonion Doctors is still on and so much better than Corrie. You should watch it on rte to catch up/see if you like it it’s nearly a year behind bbc

I need to accidentally discover it, and get dh hooked!

What has happened to Corrie? It’s plumbing new depths of ridiculousness now - the whole Craig police officer thing is ridiculous - he wanders around the street he lives on his own in his uniform - is he the Lone Ranger? The sinkhole thing - ridiculous. Shona and Gemma - boring annoying ridiculousness. The quads - invisible and a stupid storyline. Johnny the pub landlord with MS turning gangster - fucking ridiculous. The whole Oliver thing - distasteful to the extreme. At this rate of fast forwarding I may as well stop watching soon and just read this thread....

@Deadringer

Beth is looking well

I thought that. When she mentioned Craig buying new boxers because he was sweet on someone a part of me shrivelled up inside.

Beth looks botoxed to the hilt has a very pillowy face !

Thank you! I thought Beth was new-face Beth as she looked all plumped up. Glad it's not just me. I thought she'd put on a shedload of weight or something.
This is reminding me of Ivy Tilsley and her lips. Think she was sacked for that as she was unrecognisable.

Unrecognisable is not an issue any more. I'm scared Jason will have a new head because I like his proper head.
I wish the pandemic would end and Corrie would go back to normal.

Saw Jason (Ryan Thomas) in an ad the other day for shaving products. For a moment I though he was back in Trim Up North!
