Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS! Grief is driving Abi crazy, Nina’s memories are hazy and no one gets the point of Daisy

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

New thread - and many thanks to the people who tagged me asking me to start it. It genuinely meant a lot that you wanted me to start the new thread

I did like the fact that for once someone had a lock on their phone

Well that was disappointing.
I was expecting Abbi to go full Villanelle there. Instead, hours after her son's funeral, she's scoring drugs to catch out Cory - whatever it was, she was ripped off, paid about £30 for a lemsip by the looks of it, they must have knocked him out for all of ten minutes - then hanging around outside with her phone, whilst her sidekick trawled through a phone. Tedious.
Sarah is incredibly pretty, but last night looked like she'd raided Audrey's wardrobe. And Carla, ex druggie/alkie - getting a kick from grabbing a few boxes of knickers back - whatever floats your boat love.

Peter still clinging onto the winter coat over a jacket look. And the beard. At least he's now cracking open new jigsaws, instead of bottles.

Disappointing episode.

Tonight, I predict Nina will save the day.

Can anyone remember when (if?) Johnny signed over the rovers to Jenny before he got sent to prison?
I’m sure I remember Carla telling Jenny that he’d got Adam to sort that.
So he doesn’t own the pub with Jenny any more? Wiki still has them as joint owners though, did Jenny get him to change his decision?

It's only on for half an hour and at 9pm again after the stupid masked thing.

Sarah used to be so pretty but why on earth would she put on that vile edge to edge salmon coloured jacket? And the hair, yes I agree.

Why is Jonny just turning up again. He's supposed to have gone yet there he is skulking about the back room.

And Daisy pulling faces is getting on My Nerves.

"the stupid masked thing"
Understatement of the year.

I don't like Corrie on for just half an hour at 9 p.m. I like watching something for longer at that time - just as I'm getting into it, it's over.

Johnny is a hypocrite.

I’m tired by 9pm 😴

I came on to say I was too preoccupied by Sarah's forehead to notice anything that went on last night!

Sarah seemed to have aged a few years overnight! Even DH noticed.

On a Corrie fashion front I really did not like Sarah’s suit, it totally swamped her small frame and she really does not suit having no fringe, the scraped back hair did her no favours.

All of this! That suit was awful!

Yes, she used to look so fresh and young but is channelling Rita at the moment.

And honestly honestly... she's in a backstreet knicker factory, would they honestly dress in 60s boardroom style? Why wouldn't she wear jeans and a nice blouse or something.

Sarah and Maria both look very tired and older recently. I guess due to having to do their own make up.

Isn't that funny IntredR I have thought that. Maria used to be a stunner but she looks a bit wrecky at the moment, and she has gone for the Carla fuzzy felt eyebrows too... they were very weird last night.

Maria's starting to remind me of Miley Cyrus !

I thought the same about Sarah's hair and suit.
And yes, I was sat thinking for god sake Asha, why don't you leave with his phone. It was so obvious he was gonna wake up

If I'd shelled out thirty quid to knock someone out, I'd be wanting my money back that he dozed off for just five minutes.

Then woke up totally compis mentis.

Yes Sarah usually looks beautiful but i agree that the suit swamped her and made her look very thin. I thought they were going to tie Corey up and torture him or something so that was disappointing.

I think I read somewhere (or saw while flicking through Instagram!) that the actress who plays Sarah has been through a tough time during lockdown. That might explain while she doesn't look quite so fresh as she normally does.

Oh really? That’s a shame. I know Maria, or Samia Longchambon, has a young son.

Id be happy to look as tired as either of them 😂

"I thought they were going to tie Corey up and torture him or something so that was disappointing."

They missed a golden opportunity. It was on after 9.00 so they could have gone for it.
Tied him up with Carla's newly found knickers, dragged him out and force fed Dev's kebabs into him. If he survived that, then Yasmine could have let Emily and Charlotte peck away at the bits left over on his smarmy little face. All the time playing a recording of Sharon cackling away "ave that, cackle, cackle" on a loop. Then semi conscious they could chuck him in the sinkhole, and fill it up with all of Cathy's junk from the loft. Then Nina and Abi could pour Peter's left over stash over the lot and set fire to it. He's sorted. Sink hole's sorted. Job done.

That'd teach him

Or a few hours in Yasmeen's house with Cathy and Elaine for company, he would be begging for prison time.

Asha could have borrowed Sharon's taser !!

So boring last night

Its amazing how such potentially exciting drama can be so boring. I did wonder what picture was on the new jigsaw.

How much do I want to sleep Sarah..
