Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS!! Sean’s acting flash, but Carol’s lost her cash, while Nina’s on the lash

[WomanStanleyWoman]

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 I’m sorry that it’s over. All the best to anyone who sees this before it’s deleted x

@PinkDaydreams

Watched first episode on catch up, can't be bothered with the second. Can someone please tell me who the woman in the bistro tonight with Curtis is please?

She's his carer. He's got some unmentionable (possibly) terminal illness.

There used to be quite a lesbian presence on the street with Sawphie, Rana, Paula, Johnny's daughter (what was her name?!)

What happened with Dev and Berni? Are they still shagging?

I really fancied Steve tonight

There used to be quite a lesbian presence on the street with Sawphie, Rana, Paula, Johnny's daughter (what was her name?!)

Kate. I know but they’ve all left and no new lesbian characters introduced. Whereas there have been loads of new gay men characters brought in. Pride month last month and no gay women on Corrie.

Maybe Sawphie will return and reclaim the clipboard from Emma!

Oh sawphie and Emma would be great friends!!

Maybe Curtis needs a transplant and has heard about the wonderful hospital in Wetherfield.

Oh right, Curtis has a carer with a car that he pays for with his standard rate daily care PIP benefit (which is all he'd get, at an absolute maximum) of £60 a week.

I feel another bonkers, inaccurate storyline coming up.

She wasn't Curtis' carer, she was 'from his support group'. For a heart problem with no name that the doctors don't know much about, but he could drop dead any minute (or not). This is another terrible storyline to add to the pile . Emma should probably dump him anyway for crimes against acting.

Thanks for clearing up who she is, I don't have to watch the second episode now

Curtis, the medical student, doesn’t now what his own illness is called?

It's so poor at the moment
It used to be an honour to work on corrie. I bet the actors weep into their script when they read what their character is up to
They've tied themselves in knots with too many pointess story lines that they think we'll forget
I have to really think who some of the characters are when I see their name written down & corrie would be my specialist subject on mastermind

No, not his carer. As Shellingbynight said, from his Terminal Illness Support Group. He's a cardiac conundrum as no-one knows anything about his rare condition that could strike him dead at any time. Personally I doubt he has a heart - to sleep with Emma for the first time and dump her the following day was cruel.

My lack of interest in Curtis is so acute that I only found out he was a medical student when I read it on here :D

Good grief. He and Emma have batted eyelids at each other for all of 3 minutes and suddenly he has a life threatening illness and dumps her. I hate these zero to 100 miles per hour storylines . Also Kevin and Steve naked-please god no !

I'm sure a heart transplant will sort him out. Then he can do a few jigsaws and be ok.

Oh great- I’ll bet Emma dies and he gets her heart. Or Steve.

Jigsaws and the blanket of doom. And then his recovery will be signalled by a nice new haircut.

For a medical student, he doesn't seem to do much studying.

Maybe the heart of a nasty person who is killed in a nasty situation. Or Alina.
Is the Todd and Billy money thing finished?

Is the Todd and Billy money thing finished?

I don’t even know!! Something to do with Billy quitting his job as it was decreed by god that he should. Todd looked panicky. No idea what’s going on tbh. Son much crap happens in every episode I can’t keep up.

If Todd could so easily get a loan from George the gormless undertaker why the steal from the tramp fund and then steal the heating pump pointless stupid and ridiculous storylines!

He'll be OK. It will happen by the weekend. Weatherfield General have neither protocols nor waiting lists

We have have always said on here that Daisy is a pointless character, perhaps she will be the donor.

Daisy has no heart- just a swinging brick.

Not yet ANOTHER illness storyline. This time a character no one gives a shit about. How original. And no doubt it will all be resolved/forgotten about within a couple of weeks and never mentioned again, like all the other illnesses Corrie has dealt with.
