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…

I zoned out briefly so may not have got the full picture but are we supposed to believe that Daniel (who is still technically training to be a teacher) and Nicky (a newly appointed TA with no previous experience) would be allowed to take sole charge of a school trip to Edinburgh or have I got thay wrong?

@thenightsky

Sarah-Lou lost a baby? I have no memory of that story line.

She had a baby boy with Todd, called him Billy, he was premature and died. Think this was back in 2003 or 2004 but can't remember exactly

It was when she was about 17 ish- she lost a baby called Billy when she was with Todd.

Sorry @strugglingwithlife- cross post

No probs @ChildOfFriday

Craig's forehead is very wrinkled for someone so young!

Thanks PPs for the Sarah-Lou baby Billy reminder.

Cardi woman really needs to tone down the spray tan/foundation colour.

What's Toyah up to? She looked shifty there at the end...is she plotting revenge?

I thought she was considering getting back with Imran. He's a twat thought, lying about Abby being back on drugs.

Imran really is trash 😡

On the subject of Daniel and Nicky's lack of experience in leading school trips: are they organising the whole thing on the back of an envelope? Right, says Nicky, that's the coach booked. Now where shall we take them when we get there?
And what on earth was Mrs Call me Orla Crawshaw thinking with the bottle of red for sexy beast Daniel?

I would also like to know why both Kelly and her mum were homeless at times, while Rick's house was empty. They knew he was missing, what was to stop either of them from moving in?

And Nicky seems to wear more make up now that she's a TA than she did when she was a prostitute.

Imran has become a vile character. I'm disgusted at Imran and Toyah plotting to take Alfie from Abbie whilst Imran is pretending to help her. Abbie does not deserve that after everything she has gone through. Toyah definitely has form for going a bit crazy over babies that are not hers. I'm hoping she's plotting revenge on Imran rather than seriously considering taking him back.

Perhaps Toyah is plotting revenge on both of them and will disappear with Alfie 🤷🏻‍♀️

I really felt for Abi when she was sat in her flat, all alone, crying.
Nicky in the cafe talking to Daniel reminded me of Kenny Everett's Tina Turner sketch. Every time Daniel spoke to her her boobs seemed to inflate and thrust a bit

Again toyah letting herself in to sit by Alfie! Just wouldn't happen.

It's the weight loss isn't it?

I thought Crawshaw fancied Roy at the start of the episode

@girlmom21

I thought Crawshaw fancied Roy at the start of the episode

Why else would Roy have hidden in the back of the cafe? Everyone else thought that too. I thought he was a bit old for her, but that age gap must be nothing compared to her and Danny Boy. She's old enough to be his mother, and then some.

Daniel is the new lady killer on the street lol! he's got all females chasing him...
I thought it wasn't clear if Abi took the morphine or not...

Ah, quelle surprise. Yet another middle-aged Corrie woman being portrayed as a bit of a joke. Would it really have been such a stretch to see a competent, well-balanced and professional female headteacher?

As for TA girl, why should it matter how much make-up she wears?

Miss Crawshaw and Dr Gadass should become mates, and the detective with the dodgy hair too. The new Deirdre and Liz.

I wish Mrs Crawshaw would do something with her hair.

I have to agree. I couldn’t take my eyes off it when she first came into it. I didn’t even recognise it was Carla Mendonça!

She’s married to Clive Mantle of Casualty fame in real life, fact fans.
