Hi all,

This is @StillCoughingandLaughing. My account got deleted because someone accused me of racism and, even though her accusations were removed, the fact that I fought back was apparently worse than making false allegations in the first place. Hence no more account.

I just wanted to say how much I’ve enjoyed talking Corrie with you all Smile I’m sorry that it’s over. All the best to anyone who sees this before it’s deleted x

Todd needs seven grand - so someone just happens to pop into the undertakers with it in cash for a tramp’s funeral. But oh no, George gave someone the wrong urn with all the cash in it - and it just happened to be a gangster who stole the lot and would break Todd’s legs to keep it! But wait, another stroke of luck - Billy just happened to have ordered an environmentally friendly pump (or whatever the hell it was) that’s worth the exact same amount! And Todd doesn’t even have to worry about how to move the thing, as there just happens to be a hearse next door - and he has the keys! But hilarity ensues because there’s an old woman’s corpse in the back, and him off Benidorm thinks she’s been stolen! OMG lolz!! But at least now Todd will be okay, as he can sell this highly specialised item with no paperwork for the exact amount it cost Billy new, in order to pay off a spotty oik who can’t even steal a Mr Kipling’s custard sodding slice without getting caught, never mind masterminding a blackmail plot envy

Yep. All in the space of a couple of episodes. It’s utter tripe.

@PinkDaydreams

Why is it all men doing the naked calendar? Seems a bit strange that they haven't asked any women to do it.
They probably realise it might be a bit creepy for a young man to go round asking women if he can photograph them naked “for charity” Grin

I could have sworn it looked like a black transit van

What a load of tripe this episode was

How did the kid steal Todd's ring?And when they were in the cafe why didn't he just take it back from him, the kid weighs about 20 pounds and has a broken arm! Or when Summer came in, just remark loudly 'thanks so much for finding my ring and keeping it safe' or something. Daft.

MotionActivatedDog · 16/07/2021 11:00

I wondered about the ring stealing too. Presumably it happened in the funeral directors when Todd and boy shook hands on their deal. It showed Todd gripping the boys hand tightly with both hands and threatening him so I’m guessing that’s when cake boy stole the ring. I think we’re supposed to imagine he is some kind of dodger type character. Hmm

Optimist1 · 16/07/2021 11:32

I was wondering why on earth they were shaking left handed, but then realised that was when the kid nicked the ring.

ScreamGulpLaughandGasp · 16/07/2021 11:32

Why did cake boy steal Todd with the new head ring?

MotionActivatedDog · 16/07/2021 11:37

To make sure Todd stuck to his part of the deal.

Akire · 16/07/2021 11:59

You think cake boy be more worried Todd would smack him on head and bury in with someone Gran and be done. Hello easy body disposal no questions asked. Black mail never ends well!

Still can’t work out why Bistro man wants to do the naked photo calendar with Steve. He’s not that keen on Emma is he not even had kiss yet.

@ScreamGulpLaughandGasp

Thank you *@WomanStanleyWoman* I hadn't seen it so you've saved me the bother of wasting this beautiful day inside I think we should have Corrie monitors/prefects on this thread to give the thumbs up or down whether its worth catching up on Fed up being disappointed
I could get a job writing episode summaries for the Hub or Freeview guide! Although ITV might object to me calling this week ‘utter crap’ Grin

I usually read the Corrie thread in the Digital Spy forum as it's way more entertaining than actually watching.

ajandjjmum · 16/07/2021 15:58

It's turning into a panto.

theresnoonequitelikegrandma · 16/07/2021 16:10

@ajandjjmum .....Oh no it isn't! 🤣

thenightsky · 16/07/2021 20:02

Johnny Vegas has become a joke policeman and appears to be interview Paul.

DahliaMacNamara · 16/07/2021 20:04

Well, Todd as the classic baddie lurking in the wings eavesdropping is certainly panto-esque.

woodhill · 16/07/2021 20:13

Yes, and why is Fizz so dressed Up for the factory and how has she got time to work for Gary too?

I thought undertaker was furious with Todd but Todd still has time to run around after Will and not be at work. There seems to be no repercussions for Todd as per usual

theresnoonequitelikegrandma · 16/07/2021 20:15

@DahliaMacNamara - I was trying to be funny (obviously didn't succeed!) 🤣🤣 Just wondering when to just give up on the whole thing now we have Alina bullying Tyrone just to add to the mix! 😞

thenightsky · 16/07/2021 20:15

I've never been closer to giving up on Corrie. I can't follow any of the fragmented story lines any more and I don't even care.

woodhill · 16/07/2021 20:18

Classic line when Curtis spoke to Chez when he mentioned his 4 toddlers - invisible ones?

MotionActivatedDog · 16/07/2021 20:29

Oh how convenient that Todd said every single incriminating thing cake boy needed him to say for the recording Hmm

lollipoprainbow · 16/07/2021 20:41

I'm puzzled by Curtis is he hiding something ?!

eddiemairswife · 16/07/2021 21:40

I'm puzzled by nearly everything.

twinkledag · 16/07/2021 21:52

Does anyone know where Emma's dress is from today? The pink one?

Clawdy · 16/07/2021 22:10

Emma looked lovely in that dress.

ohthatbloodycat · 17/07/2021 15:25

Aargh, Fiz is soooo annoying!
