Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS! Abi’s baby battle ends in tears, Max’s expulsion sparks David’s fears, Summer’s Oxford plot lasts 93 years

[WomanStanleyWoman2]

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…

Tim and Sally's relationship is one of the best things about Corrie, opposites attract, nipping off for sex during people's weddings etc, it should have been immune to the 'issues' fest that Corrie has become.
We have no evidance that
Alina was pregnant jelly but she was rubbing her belly and looking wistful when she was leaving so it seems likely.

I loved it too. 'Who do you think we are - the Happy Mondays?'

it feels like the writers are trying to turn away from all the doom and gloom and back to some humour.

Thankfully.

Also, it's nice to see actual extras in the background of the caf and Rovers.

Wouldn't Gail have the sense to keep her mouth shut and not share what she knew with others especially Tim

I wish I could care enough to remember who this Ronnie is.

Gail has zero sense now. Im starting to get bored with Tim and his problem. Ken is going to be disappointed in Daniel, and i dont know where jacob and Amy will live...with Craig?

Whose was the bench that Eileen and Gail were putting flowers on?

Daniel will end up sewing knickers. I think Gail and Eileen were remembering the Manchester Arena bombing.

The Bench was dedicated to Martyn Hett, the massive Corrie fan who died in the Manchester Arena bombing. What a thoughtful tribute! So sad.

That's lovely. I was trying to work out if an ex Corrie resident was meant to have died in the bombing but could only think of Martin Platt.

I'm so sick of hearing about Tim and Sally's sex life. I know soaps are known for bringing issues into the public domain but this feels so unnecessary!

Aww that’s so lovely. I remember him. I was trying to think if a resident was meant to have been there too. The only Martin I could think of was Martin Platt!

I’m quite surprised Daniel pushed Nicky away, but pleased. Daisy’s ears had pricked up in the pub when he was there.

I think he will miraculously retrain as a solicitor while helping Adam in the office.

After months of puzzling, I've finally remembered who Jacob reminds me of.

Gripper Stebson

Yes!

And Marc Almond.

Is there any chance that Imran isn't actually the father of Abi's baby? It would be a good twist if Alfie was actually Kevin's baby... (or has it been established?)

Even Toyah is starting to look distinctly uncomfortable with the situation... Imran knows perfectly well what he has done is wrong, but he keeps going. I would love it to turn out that he is not even the father.

The scene at the memorial bench was well done. Martyn loved Gail, so I was pleased she was part of that scene.

I really like Nicky.
The Daniel/Daisy drama was tedious.

The actress who plays Nicky is only 34, but that weird make up she uses makes her look a lot older. I find her face strangely unsettling.

Nicky’s hair is certainly unsettling.

@carbay me too almost doll like and creepy !

Indeed. And the costume department clearly have a lot of fun when choosing her outfits. 😆

I agree!

She didn’t look like that when she was previously around. She’d have got make up all over Sinead’s cardie! This look doesn’t do her any favours.

I agree Daisy and Daniel are tedious, and wouldn’t be a good match long term.

Yes very odd.
She didnt look over made up etc.
The whole point was that Daniel had no idea she was an escort.
