Classic Corrie 5 - Deirdre’s out on bail, Leanne’s annoying Gail and Hayley was born male

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

New thread... really hope the title doesn’t offend anyone! I actually really admire how sensitively the story was handled!

Anyway... Corrie in 1998.

Havnt been watching it for long. Is Les just leannes dad? Isn’t she the oldest?

Yeah on first watch I thought Toyah was Janice and Les's but you can tell on second watch she’s clearly Janice's

Saying that Les was just nasty. I didn’t like Janice first time round thought she was just shouty. She should have binned Les for good years ago

How did that work they got married had Leanne then she had an affair or something with Toyah?

Janice isn't Leanne's biological mum. I think Les had Leanne and Janice had Toyah before they got together.

Ah ok didn’t know that!

Leanne is Stella's daughter, she was cindy in east enders I think.

That's right, although it'll be quite a while before she comes into the Street.

He is just a really vile character. I think Georgia Taylor's acting skills came on in leaps and bounds in a really short time. She portrays the sense of rejection so well.

Toyah obviously doesn't know that in 20+ years times she'll be with Imran!

I wonder will he stay with Toyah?

Where did Sally go for that bottle of wine? 🤔

Did I miss the episodes where Sally worked out what they going do after all these work parties/bonking sessions result in no actual knicker sales? He’s not going want her to move in no way!

He’s so convincing isn’t he. Pretending that he’d be happy to live with the the gurlz (lovely as they are, Sally should be suspicious).

I do wonder why he’s targeted Sally though - there are far richer women in and around Manchester. It doesn’t seem that realistic.

Great acting from everyone.

And it’s very good to see Anne back. She’s got a troublesome air about her!

Classic Corrie is fast becoming the high light of my day! Love seeing how things play out. Though I lol at Ken’s acting ability of scrunching up eyes and shouting WHAT hasn’t changed in last 30years.

And Toyah bomb scares and thumping people at school!! I would never have guessed given what she is now.

She is probably the richest women apart from maybe Rita ,that is the bubble of coronation Street 🤣
Sally's annoying me and I'm actually feeling a little bit sorry for Kev ,just a little bit mind😂

Just watched Toyah heading to London (and followed by Les and Janice )

Janice said Walthamstow
Toyah said Leytonstone to the bloke who gave her a lift
But the house she ended up in was E4 ( Chingford) so has she wandered into the wring house .....?

It looks like it as that’s wrong bloke but she not seen him since she was 2! Quite dramatic

This is beyond creepy for Corrie. She’s 16 so threats of rape perfectly fine!

That was certainly not like corrie, and the lady with the dog was unconcerned. Its beginning to be the opposite of cosy.

Yes creepy but I think it shows what a good actress Georgia Taylor is .

I think on corrie acting ability depends on the story. If it is ridiculous, the actors don't care.

I searched up and watched "The Flypaper" on YouTube ( Tales of the Unexpected ) it's along a similar line
One of the classics

Where have a seem the actor that played Neil Flynn before ?

Where have a seem the actor that played Neil Flynn before

I just searched IMDb he looks familiar . (Tim Dantay)

He's been in flipping everything

I searched him too ,but it all seems like bit parts I feel like I know him from a major part ,shameless maybe?

Alan Partridge. He played the head builder.
He was very funny!
He was also in Making Out, if you remember that show?
