Coronation Street: AKA Ray and Debbie’s Hotel Babylon Luxury Knocking Shop. NO SPOILERS!

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

New ’un.

Whose turn on the storyline merry-go-round will it be this week?

Adam is like some sort of creepy preying animal just pouncing on any woman who passes him by. It’s gross!

I think Steve is becoming to look more like Jack Duckworth - it's that square face and heavy set.

I liked Adams hair last night though.

Billy's shocked face and eye bulging horror at his boyfriend's antics was like something out of a bad comedy from late

night on BBC Three.
Great idea to have Graham Lineham writing a few episodes. Maybe he could just cull some of the most annoying characters.

Why was Adam there? He doesn’t work in the factory?

Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that Paul is going to end up sleeping with Todd?

Is Adam trying to make Sarah jealous? Does the factory still make things?

Did Adam and Sarah get married? I find it so difficult to keep up with the current state of all the relationships.

I got the impression that Adam now hates Sara-Lou as he felt she chose Gary over him when she refused to grass Gary up over the dead blokes watch (or something).

For me, Adam and Sara seemed a good match to start with, when they were skipping off to hotels for secret sex etc. He was so much better a partner for her than gormless Gary.

Adam and Sarah looked right together, apart from the fact that the didn't seem to live together. Love and hate are very close emotions on Coronation Street...They only hate each other because they care....

I was thinking exactly the same thing!

I stupidly had high hopes for Sarah and Adam. I still do!

She'll be pregnant by Christmas.

Oh - here you all are.

I know this is a few days late and it was only a plot device for Michael to see Grace again, but when he said he was going for the job interview because the other place ‘had a design department’ - wasn’t the whole point of the new Underworld that they were doing small, bespoke orders? Isn’t that why they hired Nina to do her Victorian Gothic drawings?

There's got to be a pregnancy coming up in Corrie soon.
Sarah/Gary/Adam love triangle who's the daddy?

Are Maria and Gary still married? My memory is shot.

I haven't watched properly for ages. I'm sorry to see the Oliver storyline and Leanne's sour face are still ongoing. Has she ever mentioned Les or Janice getting in touch? How have they explained Liz not sticking around?

I think there will be a plot twist and Todd & the vicar's boyfriend with the weird nose will end up together.

They never came across as a convincing couple to me, I think because the writers got them together, married them off so quickly and then they never even set up home, just lived in Gail/David’s box room! Half the time I forgot they were even married and I used to wonder why Adam was sat in the Platt’s living room......

@eggandonion

I liked the health and safety lad who was one of Roy's foster kids. Maybe he could return and sort the sink hole, and be a love interest for emma, Faye or alina.

That would be great, he was an interesting quirky character.

@Deadringer

I am glad they are doing the MLM storyline, but am not looking forward to Shaun's whining, arm folding, eye rolling and flouncing when it all goes pear shaped. Agree that the bistro scenes were apalling, and Tracey was fantastic, Deirdre would be proud.

Can I ask what MLM actually is please? Feel like a bit of an idiot as everyone else seems to know hahaha. Can I also just point out how quickly both Leanne and Paul sobered up? Within what seemed like could have been an hour they both seemed to be over it 😂

MLM means Multi Level Marketing, they might call it Direct Marketing. It's a pyramid scheme where you have some tat to sell for a teeny profit and if you can get someone else to sign up, you get a percentage of their sale too.

It's the likes of FM Fragrances, Arbonne etc and they're usually all over Facebook.

They probably sobered up because they only had a thimbleful each! I hate people acting drink on TV, it always looks stupid. Just get actually drunk and be done with it.

Todd & the vicar's boyfriend with the weird nose will end up together

Thank you for mentioning that. I thought it was just me, because I do have a tendency to notice odd things.
Is it false?
Looks like it

I dont know why I found this so funny but i did 😂😂

I just went and looked at the wedding on youtube to remind myself. And the Registrar says 'and may you have many happy years together'.
She got the words wrong, should've been 'and may you have many happy minutes together' because that's about how long it lasted!

I think most viewers forgot they were married so are probably totally confused with it all, I know I am!

I think Sarah and Adam’s marriage has been sidelined as a storyline because the rest of the Platts are busy elsewhere. David and Shona are getting the family’s main storyline; Nick is heavily involved in the Oliver storyline; Gail was absent until recently, so wasn’t there as a shoulder to cry on... Sarah just faded into the background. It doesn’t help that she has no other obvious confidante on the street - Maria would have been the obvious person in the past, but of course she can’t be now.

Has she ever mentioned Les or Janice getting in touch?

Or Cindy Beale Stella? Who made such a fuss about reconnecting with her daughter before buggering off a few years later, never to be heard of again?
