This isn’t very interesting is it?

Agreed! All very dull!!

One of the worst episodes ever. I have watched since 1961.

@UhtredRagnarson

Jenny throwing the crisps!!! why is she angry at the woman?? The woman didn’t lie to her!

She was rude and snobby about being up north and in the pub and didn't say please or thank you.

1961! That's commitment! Have to agree - felt like everything was treading water the whole episode. I can't get on board with a storyline based around Gail considering a cleaning business. Snore.

Ooh I’ve missed that! I’m sure that’s not all that’s bothering Jenny though

Wrong thread but Katherine Kelly looks so different in Innocent if anyone else is watching.

What on earth is asha thinking 🙈

1961. Wowzers!

I think that Gail/Gayle? looks like one of those Tressy dolls from the 60/70's. You pressed a button in her back and her hair just grew and grew. I've said it before, she's got too much hair for her face or not enough face for her hair! . Also, why oh why is every bloody surface in every bloody house so CLUTTERED! Have a look, you couldn't put a fag paper between all the ornaments on display! Ahhhhh, rant over, I feel better now.

Ooh I had one of those dolls. It broke after one go/grow when the hair was short and I literally scalped it trying to pull the hair back out!

she's got too much hair for her face or not enough face for her hair!

I have always thought this about our Gail. Ever since she joined the street her hair has been too big for her face. Great hair though! shame about the voice and some of the storylines she has been given.

Gail is a blinker. Great acting means a lot of blinking. No one else notice?

@Roussette

Oh heck Sean is back!

Who mentioned it on here?!

Yes, what was that weird random short scene with some woman we don't know?

The woman Sean was with was Carol, who was one of his friends who was also homeless when he was on the streets. She looked after him from what I remember.

I had high hopes with this possible storyline to get Gail back to being the competent business woman she was of yesteryear, then I remembered Corrie scriptwriters hate 50 plus women so no doubt it would be all silly scenarios and keystone cops shenanigans.

@Roussette

On Sophie and Rosie... I do remember an episode with mostly them in, that was classic comedy gold. It might've been to do with Tim's window cleaning, can't remember quite what. Rosie used to spend a lot of time on SM and taking selfies didn't she? It was one of the funniest episodes I've seen on Corrie.

I love Rosie! I wish they would bring her back, she was a right madam in her younger teenage years but then she became this really unintentionally funny character as she grew up, loved the scene where she was doing aerobics in her crop top, Tim’s face!

@WhatWouldPhyllisCraneDo

What is Audrey prattling on about. Her mother told her about London in the 60s. Surely she was an actual adult in the 60s

I thought it was meant to be her mother had heard of all kinds of stories of debauchery in Soho, and 20 year-old Audrey found it exciting and went to see for herself. But yes, as someone else had pointed out, Audrey had had two children by the time she was 20 - I think her innocence was gone!

I don’t think they’re going down the alcoholism route with her - I think ‘Audrey gets pissed and rambles on a bit’ was just tonight’s trip to comedy corner.

The Audrey scenes were an embarrassment. Clearly I should concentrate more, but why did Sharon ask Dev to share the bottle of wine?

HF is on maternity leave so she may yet return!

I think Sharon overheard Adi saying that he plays online games with Si as she was skulking in the ship when she heard him say that and did that pantomime face she has been doing a lot.

So I presume she is going to sit in Dev's garden with the wine and go to the loo, and log on to the PS and get Si's details.
(Please note, this theory is very sketchy)

I'm bored with this Will Mellor character shouting into a phone in clink and would he really be so urgent about it when he's stuck in there. And Sharon needs to move on.

She was skulking in the shop. Not the ship

That is 100% her plan Roussette. I thought all of last nights scenes seemed very staged, and very amateur somehow, almost like a live episode. And that lad Ben Sam can act, he managed to look fascinated by everything Audrey said, even though it would be incomprehensible to him. I love Audrey, great to see her back even if it was all nonsense.

I bet Sharon will guess Aadi’s PlayStation password first try as well it’s a load of nonsense.

Call me daft, but how does getting on the PS help her find Simon? It doesn't appear like she'd be versed in ISPs and all of that. Does she want to play a game on it and draw out of him where he is?!

Sam was stunned. He had never heard anything like that before.
Sharon is surely going to speak to one person too many.

Yep. She’s going to play fortnight or whatever and pretend to be Aadi and lure Simon into responding to a message.
