Your brand spanking new thread to discuss the latest developments in Weatherfield. I for one will be on tenterhooks until Summer’s exam results come through…

How does Abi expect to support herself in Costa Rica? A rhetorical question; we know she won't go there, unfortunately.

Soapland is full of really bad ideas but Abi’s plan to flee to Costa Rica is just about the shittest plan of all time.

Cheapest flight I can find leaving tomorrow is £625 each (not sure if baby pays full price). Then there's accommodation when she gets there. And food and baby stuff. All while she's looking for a job - who will look after Alfie while she's working? Bizarre.

I could have (sort of) understood if she'd gone to Australia as that's where the twins are. But Costa Rica? Why choose there??

eggandonion · 30/05/2022 20:47

She could have gone wherever Rosie or Sophie went, they have vanished. So has Bethany. And so many others.
Nobody went Costa Rica. Liz went to Milton Keynes in the classic episodes.

Honeyroar · 30/05/2022 20:49

I think the writers must have been watching the programme about the man in the canoe a few weeks ago. That’s why they came up with the idea.

MelonsMelonsMelons · 30/05/2022 21:04

Maybe Roy could sort her out a catering job? He has Latin American connections.

Saw this on Facebook and it made me laugh, hope it’s ok to post here

DonnaRhea · 30/05/2022 22:01

Watching with my mouth hanging open. All credibility has vanished, poof, gone
Costa Rica??? I've seen less drama in a Hollywood film
I'm betting they'll introduce witches & wizards to the plot soon

'Oh hi, Imran, oh no you've just seen the fake passport just sitting there on the side'

Absolute guff.

I’m guessing it doesn’t have an extradition treaty with the UK. But there are other places that would be far more realistic options (Morocco, for example).

I do like the fact that the writers seem to watch the classic episodes on ITV3. I’m pretty sure Kirsty is the cousin Toyah went on holiday with when she had the holiday romance with Dobber 😁

That poor baby needs rehoming well away from both its parents and all known relations!

I think Todd was Oxbridge material, I can't remember what went wrong.
I really like Todd.

Ah that was it thanks eggandonion

Perhaps Faith & Craig could be next in the adoption line

MakingNBaking · 31/05/2022 12:28

Did Abi get some money from the criminal compensation people or am I imagining that?

That should just about finish fucking it up for life!

Didn’t Kelly give her some money?

JellyBeanFactory · 31/05/2022 15:49

I don't think Kelly actually gave Abi money but used the cash found in her Dads house to pay for Elliot "The Other Lawyer" when Imran stopped paying him.

Who has to be dead?

Didn’t you watch it tonight ? Won’t spoil it for you !

Honeyroar · 31/05/2022 20:17

Oh sorry- forgot I hadn’t started it on time! See what you mean!

Honeyroar · 31/05/2022 20:20

I’d rather him be alive and have to face the consequences.

Looks like that building was about to collapse- they can use their fallen/dangerous building/rubble set again!
