Coronation street -*NO SPOILERS*- Corey’s on the stand, Abbi has a plan, Pats in the dustpan and grace has no fans

New thread.

Agree bit rich fiz blaming Tyrone for hopes behaviour! She was a pyromaniac long before he put his slippers under alina’s bed. More likely her psychopathic genes inherited from her father and shared with her crazy sister.

I know others have said it, but I can’t work out what’s going on with Zeedan’s hair and I’m finding it distracting. It looks like someone’s taken a thick black marker to his forehead. That can’t be his hairline surely. Is it some kind of taped down hairpiece? I’m finding the beard equally strange.

Zeedan's hairline seems to be working its way south towards his eyebrows.

Why didn’t Debbie just ring the council straight away? I wouldn’t have wasted any energy getting irate about it.

Zeedan's hairline seems to be working its way south towards his eyebrows.

It's so flat and symmetrical it's weird

Wasn't the visitor in Only when I laugh

Ok. I’ve obviously blinked and missed something. Why can’t zeedan drive the truck away from the bistro? He drove it to the speed Dahl earlier.

Wasn't Summer meant to be helping Max with his English?

So footballer lad has an idea and 5 mins later, after a word with The Club, his idea is put into action.

Aye right.

@excelledyourself

Wasn't Summer meant to be helping Max with his English?

Yes!

Aadi is such a sweetie.

I've been away and catching up now... completely lost!

Terrible acting from Zeedan's father-in-law.

Zeedan looks seriously weird when he smiles. Good job he doesn't do it very often.

Summer's university application is seriously the most boring storyline ever! 🥱

Summer is awful. Not quite as bad as Fred Gee. Worst ever.

Who is Fred Gee???

Free Gee worked in the Rovers years ago. Dreadful character. I hope we never see Zeedan's fil again he was awful, cringey, monotone, expressionless, just awful.

Ah I see. Just googled him and I’m slightly too young to have seen him. My earliest memories of Corrie involve Brian and Gail and the uncertainty around Sarah Lou’s paternity!

I thought like PP I had just lost track as there are too many random new characters now!

Honestly this thread gives me so much joy in a time when I’m struggling I notice everything you guys say and mutter to myself drives my DH mad!

the woodenist actor is now a toss up between footballer guy and Zeedan - how on earth did either of them get the role. At one time (see classic corrie) the actors spoke the words and lived the character (Dierdre was one of the best at that) and interacted correctly with the other characters. It is not a monologue learned by rote - it is dialogue
I don't know why I still watch it - faint hopes of a story line that does not require a 'warning' and good actors who can deliver said lines.

I have just watched the last bit and I realise I genuinely don't care about any of the characters or story lines.
It really is tosh
The only interesting part was trying to work out why Roy was shaking pepper through a funnel into a container. Why didn't he just take the stopper out and pour it in?
I live a full life me

No spoilers!!

The Abbie thing is getting a bit annoying now. Too many annoying folk. Summer and Daisy being top of the list.

I don't remember Zeedan being so wooden when he was in it previously. I always quite liked him. His new hair "style" is awful.

I don’t think he was so wooden before. I honestly think it’s the writing and direction that has taken a complete nosedive in recent years that is making the actors look shit. They’re even doing it to Ken and rita. I mean Rita ffs. Gail and Audrey look like total dimwits now. Even Sally. It’s not the actors that are the problem.
