Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS! Sam still can’t speak, Curtis’s heart isn’t really weak, and Speed Daal’s up sh*t creek

[WomanStanleyWoman]

More Corrie ‘excitement’…

The Mrs Magoo reference was meant to be funny but how many people under the age of seventy know who Mr Magoo was?! Someone David's age would surely never have heard of him?

I think they should almost be doing Audrey and alcohol story line. She’s been drinking like a fish for years and Constantly seems to be drinking anytime of the day at home or bistro or pub. Plenty of new lockdown alcoholics. Gail should go live with her in her home what’s not to like?

Emma is starting to get on my nerves.Dithering constantly over forgiving Curtis, and putting her sad little face on.
If they do get married will she still wear pink?

Imagine getting a graduated bob done by Audrey in the afternoon after a couple of vodkas.
Everyone is a bit annoying, i can't imagine wanting to be mates with anyone, except Moira from the health centre who vanished, dr badass and dr ali.George is ok. And detective hairstyle has a good line in sarcasm.

Mr Magoo was a cartoon character whose short sightedness and denial of it caused comic storylines. David is far too young to remember it. I got the reference but I'm 55!

I'm 54 and know who Mr Magoo is!

This thread is pure gold 🤣😂🤣😂

Yep same here. Whats the betting he has a change of heart doesnt nick the cash and turns up a reformed man for the wedding. And its "all ok" Hes a lying scumbag but all is forgiven and Emma will be wearing pink🙄 Grrrr sack him off Emma!

How did Maria get an appointment so quickly for her laryngitis? Which had disappeared in the next indoor scene! Poor continuation

Anyone notice that last night Emma's flat seemed to have been finally redecorated after Hope's fire-starter act?

I do think there were some funny lines last night (especially David), hopefully that writer will stay!

Why hasnt Gary had any story lines? Apart from pushing envelope through Adams door for Kelly. He’s like little prop supporting Maria. He could have offered Stu a place to stay I dare say staying in glorified shed/workshop had far less insurance problems than barbers. He could even be night watch man.

I’m glad at least Stu seems to be staying

Did they say why Billy, the vicar, who runs the soup kitchen doesn’t know of any accommodation that can take stu?

He said he would ring around local places and ask if had spaces. So he would be aware of standard local charities. Would make sense he wouldn’t know about any beds on given night.

Ahhh thank you. I zone out far too much during Corrie now.

The envelope to Adam from Gary contained £7000 didn't it? I cant quite remember what it was for though and what happened to it.

It was to pay for someone to look at blood stains on her shoes? To add doubt to her being guilty one. Which went down toilet as they found her guilty as shoes were in plastic bag by mistake. Hope he got a refund!

I’m guessing the scenes were filmed out of order and the actress had laryngitis for real.

Yes I think same money, I’m not sure even private doctors/nhs hustle charge £4000 for a 10min appointment in nhs hospital. Or maybe his dad leant him money in order stop
Him ripping off another family.

The doctor said he wouldn’t charge him, but wanted him to get help, so he never actually spent the money.

Leanne had really bad voice about two weeks ago bet it went through the cast like crazy

Sorry for the flurry of posts - I’ve been bingeing a few days’ worth

I really like Amy, but didnt some of her dialogue the other night sound a bit ‘old’? When she sarcastically said ‘That’s a sound foundation for a marriage’ - it just didn’t sound like something an 18 year-old would say.

I guess with however many marriages her parents have had between them Steve what 5? Tracey least 3? She’s always been more mature given how much he parents argue.

I had a best friend from around 16 who was very realistic about relationships and would have said something exactly like what Amy said at that age. I think she got it from her mum who had left her abusive father when she was small and had been very honest with her about men. She was spot on about every idiot I ever dated despite her young years.

I've been trying to think what Curtis's facial hair reminds me of and I've just got it... He's turning into one of the Three Musketeers!

thenightsky If only!

That’s a very good point actually. I think she’s had to grow up quickly.

I also think the Audrey storyline is realistic. She’s always been young for her years, and has had to be very independent since Alf died - age is finally catching up with her.
