Welcome all to an exciting new thread! 🥳

Why does Nina talk in that odd way! I'd like to see her without the weird lipstick and the flouncy dress and apron for once !!

I was actually thinking the other night during the scene outside the café how pretty she looked. There was just something about the light; you kind of got a glimpse of how she’d look without the make-up.

Anyone else think it would be a good time to bring Kirsty back? Fiz isn’t Ruby’s mother or even her legal stepmother; Kirsty could make a lot of trouble if she found out Ruby’s father was no longer in residence.

Talking of ‘the gurls’, when Sharon referenced the original incarnation last night and said ‘They must be in high school by now’, did anyone think a line was missing? Wasn’t that Rita’s cue to say ‘Rosie’s 30 now’ and for Sharon to gasp and say, ‘NO! Where do the years go, eh?’ or similar.

Fiz and Ty don’t have kids together do they? Just one apiece? So Alina would really only have to play stepmum to one if they split up. And she’s lucky it’s Rubeh and not Orpe.

One night of passion in Knutsford and Alina will be pregnant. That's how it rolls on Corrie. Of course Fizz might Also be pregnant.
That's a shame about Knutsford not being full of boutique hotels and fabulous restaurants though.
What is Sharon up to? I want Terry, Curly, Rosie and Sophie to reappear in a time slip episode.

Is Fuzz becoming Elsie Tanner, with her flaming red hair? We need a new battle axe. I think she's dead right about Alina,wee home wrecker. She needs a slap. My daughter is 24, Alina is apparently 23...my daughter hates her. And her dimples. Lucas and Daisy could be a great couple.

Tyrone is the home wrecker and age has nothing to do with it.

Yes and also when Gary was talking to she who can’t be named on FaceTime he was talking about being just out of prison and will get round to see jake and the nameless woman went off on a rant about “her”. It was like a whole load of dialogue had been cut out and badly edited together. It took me a minute to work out who “her” was. I’m guessing it was faye.

I find it amusing that there's all this facetiming now. they'll be doing a whole episode with screens soon!

They can do anything they like as far as I'm concerned, as long as they don't bring out the vile dressing gowns again

Didn't Sally's sister do lots of internet shopping too?
No, alina flaunted her youthful beauty at Tyrone in a small towel, when she was living there for a reason I forget . She should have worn a sensible dressing gown. Flashing her dimples, poor Tyrone was powerless to resist.
Its time Cerberus returned.

The only thing more annoying than Aggie in the flesh is seeing her on FaceTime with Ed’s booming voice informing her of the latest family drama no one gives a shit about.

Also, are Grace and Glory still in hospital? I can see how Glory would be, but wouldn’t they have sent Grave home long since? Maybe I missed it with all the ‘excitement’ of finding out who Michael’s dad was.

Alina was the one who made a play for Tyrone knowing that fizz had been nothing but kind to her. Otherwise he’d probably have bumbled on with a crush and got over it eventually. Not just the teeny towel but didn’t she tell him she had feelings for him first?

Yes, and pretended she knew her back axle from her carburettor to impress him.

Tracie Bennett’s voice sounded weirdly deep. She’s definitely had new teeth too

I think she's borrowed Claudia's teeth by the sound of it.

Yes!
A very odd voice indeed.

I remember when Leanne got new teeth. It was years ago. Her previous teeth were much more natural. Honestly her old teeth bear no resemblance to her new teeth.

No, alina flaunted her youthful beauty at Tyrone in a small towel, when she was living there for a reason I forget . She should have worn a sensible dressing gown.

In that case Tim and Gary need to watch themselves they’ll be overdone with lust after last nights episode!

It's Tyrone at fault FFS.

Alina seems to be [written as] one of those people that are in it for the flirt and the chase but then loses interest. She was definitely flirting with Lucas and he asked her to lunch.

Speaking of Lucas, are we blaming lockdown for the bouffant white quiff?

It’s the only acceptable excuse!

I think Alina likes the fun flirty part but will be off like a shot when things get serious, when Tyrone said he loved her she didn’t look thrilled and who can blame her they barely know each other and he comes with baggage. Tyrone is making a fool out of himself, I hope she ditches him and Fizz doesn’t take him back. I think the storyline is good though, I think it’s a common thing to happen in relationships when you are busy and have dc to run around after, it’s easy to neglect your relationship.

I also thought the comment Sharon made about Rosie and Sophie being in high school was weird, really strange!

No Sean this week thank goodness.

Back at the start of the Ty/Alina thing, wasn't there a scene where Alina was talking to someone about relationships/love and she said something alone the lines of 'there is only one man I love, but he's unavailable' followed by a wistful gaze into the middle distance and a sigh. Clearly she was in love with Ty then.

I think Lucas is the long lost cousin of Bistro Robert so I do. They both have hair.

I can’t engage with Lucas because he’s already been in two soaps. He just feels like rent-a-not bad looking bloke.

Not bad looking? Yikes, I know I have strange taste but to me, he is not good looking!

Think of the competition for best looking single man though. There's Lucas and Daniel. I'm not sure what Lucas is doing there though.

There is not one good looking man in Corrie AFAIC.
Except maybe Roy, bless 'im.

Steve was back in the day.

Steve has aged very very badly!
