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.

I thought it was Geoff at first, it's just the sort of devious shite he would do, and i am sure that Faye got a message while talking to Craig in the Bistro. The only reason i think it's Craig now is because he and Faye can't possibly just get together and have a nice relationship, because it's Corrie, so i think this whole online boyfriend thing is going to somehow blow them apart.

Gary seems to have forgotten that Faye is his sister and Faye seems to have forgotten that she has a mother. People seem to wander in and out of houses and forget about bubbles and all that jazz.
A budget hotel would be a good idea, people could work in it and it could have a Happy Eater type place if they all wanted tea in somewhere that wasn't roys. (Is the Costa still there?) It would be a more realistic place to work than the factory, there must be a piece of land never seen before to be developed. And assorted dodgy businessmen could turn up to stay in it and have affairs. Debbie could run it.

Wasn't Faye about ten or eleven when Anna adopted her? Guess Gary has never really been that close to her, wasn't he married to Izzy not long after?

He used to be her big brother though. She must have been a bit younger, because she was there a while before she was pregnant. Gary has forgotten izzy and Jake and the other baby with Phelans daughter.

They definitely used to portray Gary and Faye as bother and sister. However, I think the character of Faye got sidelined when the actress was off taking her GCSEs and never quite recovered. I actually went on the Corrie set tour last year and, when they went through who lived where, the guide said ‘We think Faye lives with Tim and Sally, but we’re not sure’. That shows you how valued she was...

‘Bother and sister’? Not sure if that was a typo or a Freudian slip!

Nothing to do with this tread ,but it really pisses me of when someone takes an overdose . They take a handful of tables from a bottle .... when was the last time you got tables in a bottle ?

Haha just seen that Liz is in I’m a celeb!

We are taking vitamin D just now, in foil bubble things. We have antihistamines, paracetamol, iburofin in the cupoard all in foil bubble things,
I think antibiotics come in bottle, but involve a visit to the GP and a near death experience to get hold of. (I find the dentist dishes them out, and the vet).
I was reading somewhere that paracetamol as a suicide agent is increasing among young people, which is very sad.

The only time I've seen tablets in a bottle in the last eleventy million years is working in a hospital. But they are kept under lock and key, only the qualified nurse has the key and they are signed in and out.
Even antibiotics come in a blister pack now.

Blister pack, that's what I was trying to say!
Is Liz gone for good from Corrie, I can't imagine her having a new head...I like Liz and her outfits.

Who has taken an overdose?

Hasn't Liz gone to the (Welsh) jungle?

Hasn't Liz gone to the (Welsh) jungle?

Yes, I've seen her on a publicity photo today.
