Jim MacDonald - GOD he's annoying, so he is

[turquoise]

I'd forgotten just how much he used to irritate me with all his endless "Yer man in the big house so he is so he is" - please tell me he's only back on a temporary basis or I may have to find something more useful to do with my time!

We had a guess as to what his first words would be on seeing Liz. I won, I knew he would say 'Elizabeth, you're looking good so you are...' I once walked right into him in town (manchester) and had to bite my tongue not to say 'will you catch yourself on'.

How does one develop a deep tan in the big house anyway?.

he's a rotten actor so he is
catch yerself on will you, jim

liz (budgie woman in our house) was not the only one upset at his return
i liked to think of him in the big house, too..less thespian crimes being committed!

Didnt he used to be paraplegic after an accident?

Must have good rehab in prison!

monkeybutler pmsl at your post

I too saw him in RL in Sainsburys in Salford years ago, was wearing dark sunglasses in February so that nobody would recognise him, as if...

Yeah and that tan? You don´t see many of them in the big house so you don´t...

Oh yeah Fubsy...had forgotten about that but think you´re right....

monkeybutler - I was thinking the very same thing !!

lol i clicked on this ready to blatter anybody who was slating the accent

Wonder if Jim has noticed Liz's expanding chest yet?

The next love triangle in soap land!

well it sure wont get my pulse racing mumforistandfinaltime!!

is eileen gonna get in on with flash harry dad type from the new bookies???
she was too good for sinbad purveyor of fine kebabs

Nope, it's going to be eileen and jim, has to be! The relationship with sinbad was shunted out of the way in preparation for a jim n'eileen love-in!

Noooo! Poor Eileen, she deserves WAY better than yer man.

liz is a budgie
naturally puffed up chest thing going on
was hoping NO NO NO to eileen and jim
bring back sean hughes...

though doodledootoo i think panto would be where he fits in ...stylistically speaking

He's the uncle of someone my dh used to go to university with and apparently he's a twunt. So he is.

Nooo ! not Eileen and Jim - she's by far the best character in Corrie !!

lol ! used to be addicted then the TV stopped working, so saw it last night for the first time in months - and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh he's back, so he is! my money also on Eileen & Jim

okay
quick poll
how many 'so i am's?' tonight
and 'big houses'...???

oh jim go start new life in .... australia!
but not with eileen
you are not good enough to collect her barm cakes from Roys Rolls!

er, anyone know what a barm cake is?

love manc ways and sayings actually
but only been the once!

My dh was in Corrie for a while and he had to snog Liz.

He worked with Jim a lot too obviously for his storyline and he says Jim's a proper actor who feels Corrie is beneath his talents.

about 4 'so I ams' and one big house I reckon - can you report results back as I shall be at book group !

who was he ??!!!

Remember when Jim was in a wheelchair about 8 years ago? Then Liz ran off with the Physio? That was my dh that was.
