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

I just wish our Craigy would close his mouth every one in a while. He and Gemma must have gone to the same school of acting!

Michael is on the sofa but I still didn't think that house had three bedrooms! I'm sure when it was Emily's there were 2 bedrooms e.g. for her and Percy Sugden and then if she took anyone else in, they were in the front room. How the producers think we can just pretend these traditional terraced houses are suddenly three bedrooms is ridiculous!

That flat above the salon has magically grown too.

I wonder whether Todd theft from the undertakers will come to light as well? Although he didn't actually end up with the money. But I always wonder how on earth George has been running a successful business for many years when he doesn't realise thousands of pounds are missing. Or indeed the person who gave Todd £7000 for the funeral didn't ask for paperwork or follow up what the money was being spent on.

Sunshineaftermorningrain · 29/07/2021 08:56

Oh I thought he had been arrested for that! Can anyone tell me what he’s actually done? I’m so sorry, baby ds gets so grumpy when corrie is on and it’s hard to follow!

MotionActivatedDog · 29/07/2021 08:58

I think he was arrested for the heat pump theft.

PrincessScarlett · 29/07/2021 09:12

What hasn't Todd done!!

He's been arrested for theft of the heat pump. Which Paul got the blame for, was arrested and everyone thought Paul had done it.

PrincessScarlett · 29/07/2021 09:13

Although I think theft of the heat pump was one of his lesser crimes. The whole manipulation of Paul was just bloody cruel and evil, especially knowing he was an abused kid himself.

I was thinking about living arrangements last night.

At least 50% of the households on the street have extra people living in them.

The pub - Daisy
Eileen's - Sean (and Mary?)
Fiz's - Evelyn
Yasmeen's - Alya (Tim's mum?)
Chesney's - Bernie
Aggie's - Grace
Kevin's - Debbie
Roy - Nina

There's more, but I can't be bothered!

And Imran and Toya living in that little flat. His secretary lives in a luxury apartment for crying out loud. What's he spending all his money on?

desperatehousewife21 · 29/07/2021 09:23

A PP mentioned them trialling a cohort for close contact scenes. Are James and Michael in one or not? Being in a car together is closer than social distancing would allow, but all their other scenes in the house etc they are spaced apart.

Akire · 29/07/2021 09:25

Imran and Toyah live with Graig don’t they? Even The bar maid Emma lives in a bigger and nice flat with room swing a cat.

lollipoprainbow · 29/07/2021 10:06

I doubt Eileen would tear a strip off her precious Todd anyway!!

eddiemairswife · 29/07/2021 10:42

Is Billy the Vicar a genuinely bad actor. Has anyone seen him in anything else?
And YES to Craig's ever-open mouth. It's really distracting.

WomanStanleyWoman · 29/07/2021 10:48

I saw him in a film called ‘Soft Lad’ where he was playing a closet case having an affair with his brother-in-law (Paul Coker of EastEnders fame). He was okay, I suppose… it’s hard to judge, as the film was mediocre.

He was in the papers last week saying coming out had cost him a Hollywood career. I’m not convinced that was the issue…

Yes, Homophobic Hollywood is to blame. For sure...
PrincessScarlett · 29/07/2021 11:17

I saw the Billy actor in an episode of Midsommer Murders a few years back 🤣

eddiemairswife · 29/07/2021 11:23

'Hollywood career' made me laugh. Poor deluded Billy.

excelledyourself · 29/07/2021 11:28

I think it's the fake and whiney voice that really ruins Billy. He doesn't speak like that in real life. Plus the fact he makes this face so much 😬

The scene that annoyed me was when Aadi and Summer were talking in the cafe. Aadi sitting on the counter where food is served and Summer sittig crossed legged on a table. How hygenic!! Where was Roy?

Exactly what I was thinking
MotionActivatedDog · 29/07/2021 13:50

That scene was horrific. Summer being so condescending to Aadi!! “The lithosphere is the earths crust” and the way they even wedged that in. Why would she use lithosphere? Are they trying to make her suddenly some genius? That line would have been perfectly natural from Sam but from summer it was just totally out of place and very clunky.

Yea, that irritated me too.

Ya… coming out as a terrible actor cost him a Hollywood career! 🤣

Roussette · 29/07/2021 15:12

Aadi is a good looking boy now he's had his hair cut, I hardly recognised him!

ColonelNobbyNobbs · 29/07/2021 15:22

Billy was in Shakespeare in Love. He was Juliet but his voice broke so Viola had to step in 😀

Akire · 29/07/2021 16:25

Well that was good! Another prisoner for the street. Poor teddy bear he’s probable being dissected as we speak and will be posted back limb from limb.
