Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS! Ches and Gem have got no money, Lydia’s boiling Adam’s bunny - does anyone remember when Corrie was funny?

[WomanStanleyWoman]

Bring back Debs Brownlow - the show just isn’t the same without her…

Didn't Craig have a girlfriend who did that annoying pause thing, only she paused before every other word? Think they met on a camping trip and she had a very scarey Dad.

Oh yes, Craig and the girl bonded over being good at art?

I always thought the scriptwriters would suddenly remember Craig’s artistic bent and pair him up with Nina.

@eggandonion yes that's the one.

Craig and Deirdre also bonded over their love of pottery, as I recall. Or did I make that up?

I still miss Deirdre. I like the family photo on display.

Her stuffed marrow was legendary.

I still miss Deirdre. I like the family photo on display.

Me too - and Betty in the Rovers.

So is Imran planning on having 2 families?

Why didn’t the hearing refer to all process reports and assessments Abbie had to adopt Jack? They would be more less what she’s doing now.

I looked away as Kev was looking at that birth certificate - what did it say???

Kev saw that Imran was on the birth certificate as Alfie's father.

Imran down as father

Oops - thanks

Good point!

Well that secret didn’t last long! Will Imran get baby now?

Emma should go with what’s his face to where ever. Time for change Emma go live!

I’m glad they didn’t drag that story line out

Why is Tyrone going to allow Fizz to take HIS daughter away?

Glad they didn't drag the Imran story out for months as they usually do. I got quite a shock when Toyah revealed she knew.

As Imran is dad nothing stopping him having baby as soon paper work sorted. As natural father he can leave baby in day care asap. None of this must take year off like when you adopt. (Not sure how Toyah is getting around that part) He could buy nasty Fizz and Tyrone’s house and settle down.

He could work Toyah could stop working in the factory if that's where she works, and provide childcare for Alfie and Elsie in the small flat.
It's all fairly unbelievable, isn't it. Id like some family to just be boring. Good boring, not boring like Summer.

The summer storyline is beyond dull, really couldn't care less about her blood sugar levels ! Why can't toyah just adopt Elsie herself. I was waiting for toyah to have a go at Abi also for betraying her but that didn't seem to happen.

I found it quite refreshing that Toyah didn't have a go at Abi as usually it's always the women fighting and the men don't take the blame for being unfaithful in the first place. I think Toyah made reference to Abi being vulnerable so she's firmly laying the blame at Imran's door which is spot on.

And yes, why is fizz taking Tyrone's daughter away?
