Classic Corrie 6! Leanne’s not a hero - she lied; Linda and Alison will be brides; and Martin’s got a bit on the side

[WomanStanleyWoman]

Let the 00s begin…

Dr Matt !

That wife of dr matts wasn't good enough for him.
Did you enjoy the theatre? I haven't been to the theatre since the day before the WHO announced the pandemic!

Yes it was fabulous. Great show, and he was really good. I said to him about Classic Corrie and he said Maxine , Ashley etc were dead 🤣

He didn't mention coming back? There's a lot of ill health and injury on the street.

I wonder if he’s still married to Lady Tara of Emmerdale?

It's not on today or Monday - we obviously want to watch more Carry On films instead!

Ooh, it’s Lucy 😲

Was she Simon’s mum ?

@FlibbertyGibbitt yes she was! He must get conceived fairly soon 😂 we can’t be far off Amy or the twins as well?!

If I remember correctly the twins were born a few years later than Simon & Amy but at some point they were 'up-aged' so they were a year younger.

Just watching the Joanna Lumley doc and scenes of her with Ken. She questioned why she wouldn’t have a northern accent and was told it’s because she’d been to university, not to question it. Would love Elaine Perkins to come back looking for Ken.

I like to think I have a pretty encyclopaedic knowledge of Corrie, but I honestly didn’t remember the Charlotte story. I’m sad enough to have worked out that I was on holiday around that time - but somehow I remember Geena’s departure, Maria’s return, Les having to pretend Janice still lives with him etc… 🤔

Nice to see Mary Tamm doing her usual glamorous older woman bit as Diana. She died far too young 🙁

When we went to see Mamma Mia, Sally's ex Danny Hargreaves from the early noughties was playing one of the dads. It was bugging me for ages trying to work out where I'd seen him. The penny finally dropped at the beginning of Act 2! 😁

Just a heads up that my series link on virgin stopped working because they've changed the title to classic Coronation Street instead of Coronation Street. I've set a new one and it's recording fine again.

@DelilahJane thank you, the same happened to my Virgin series link but I managed to watch on catch up service. (Not as good as series link but at least I didn't miss anything.)

I see Maria has returned from Canda with a personality transplant 🙄 . Fiz becoming more likeable is a lot more believable and subtle.

Yeah, there’s no obvious reason for her to have suddenly become a cow. I remember thinking that at the time.

It’s weird watching now that remembering that I thought (as I think most viewers did) that Fiz was just meant as a bump in the road for Tyrone and Maria and that they’d eventually reunite, while Fiz would be sent off to comedy corner with Kirk. Who could have predicted back then that Fiz and Tyrone would be the long-term couple?

Ah that's solved that mystery, thank you @DelilahJane
Can someone tell me what happened yesterday and where Mr whoo came from?

@MrBit He belonged to a customer from The Kabin who died. Her daughter, who was this glamorous older woman type, batted her eyes at Norris and asked him to help her find Mr Woo a home. Rita said she’d take him, then promptly buggered off on a cruise and left Emily looking after him.

Thank you @WomanStanleyWoman

I feel like I've missed an episode..did they broadcast the one showing Peter coming to the aid of the lady being mugged? I also didn't see Gail and Richard leaving, nor the tap being left running in the salon.
When I scrolled back to Friday's episodes, the synopsis is showing exactly the same for both episodes 😞

It's episode 174 that is missing, Friday's guide shows episode 173 twice 😞

They broadcast the episode with Peter coming to the woman’s aid and Gail and Richard leaving (he took Audrey's list and got in the salon again) on Sky on Friday

my sky planner is all over the place though and can't distinguish between regular and classic Corrie. @DelilahJane did also say the naming convention has changed on Virgin causing issues

I remember the gorgeous mr woo.
@

Rejoining this thread after a long absence...I also remember Mr Woo, but I'd forgotten that Ade ran off after crashing Ken's car.
