Coronation Street - NO SPOILERS!! Brian and Mary are doing am dram, Bernie’s caught up in a lookalike scam and questions re: Leo leave Stephen in a jam

[WomanStanleyWoman2]

Any chance that storm in Yorkshire could cross the Pennines and get rid of some of the dead wood in Weatherfield?

Loved ken getting played for once the dirty old dog! The play scenes were so cringy though hope this storyline is now over.
I think brian and Mary should get together

Yes I think Brian and Mary would be good together too.

Summer really is a drip isn't she, mind you she's awfully stupid as well, I'm glad Aaron told Billy.

Jesus Ken give the womanising up at this stage.

Poor Daisy, hope she's ok, have a feeling Daniel will do a bunk though.

Simon looking “in the paper” for jobs. Has any young adult done that in the last twenty years?

Where did Simon work anyway?

I thought they just looked in the cabin window or went to the Rovers, Roy’s or the knicker factory (which is where he is going, on the ‘sales team’) 😀

Kebab shop i think?

How old is Simon? Did he do any A Levels? I can't even remember where he lives.

Play scenes were awful and embarrassing, surely the actors know its complete tripe. Corrie has got to improve.

Sales team indeed! They have more staff working in the office than actually sewing knickers.

We never see knickers in progress. Mr Baldwin always moved amongst the machines .

And jobs with no interviews or CVS from Carla

The Summer storyline is awful. It’s horrendously cruel to portray the infertile like that.

What has happened to Bernie’s lookalike?

Corrie is rubbish at the moment. The play, the griff bollocks, the surrogacy storyline. I think Summer and Aaron should just fuck off the illegal baby buyers - I mean what are they going to do?

Anyone else notice the hilarious scene where Nick looked as if he had no top on?? It was a flesh-coloured jumper!

Yes! I wondered why he was standing there topless for a while.

I quite liked the twist that Ken got dumped by both women, but I’m torn. It’s been very much played for laughs, but it could actually have worked quite well as a serious storyline. Ken is in his eighties, but still can’t grow up and make a decision. He could actually take a proper look at his life and wonder what he’s doing; reflect that he’s probably blown his last two chances.

On a less serious note, I always wondered why Nick hadn’t put a shirt on 😁

I can see why creepy couple want Summer as their surrogate, she is an ideal candidate isn't she? An orphaned teenager who has never given birth, who had horrendous sickness during her only pregnancy which sadly ended in miscarriage, who is struggling to manage her diabetes and also has an eating disorder, who took money under false pretences, and oh yes who is afraid to tell her three dads anything about her situation. She doesn't seem to have any health information about her birth family, though that may or may not be relevant. What could possibly go wrong?

Summer should have her own series. Maybe on netflix, I don't have netflix.

😂

Yes he looked really washed out

Wasn't there a grey faced cartoon character?

She doesn't seem to have any health information about her birth family, though that may or may not be relevant. What could possibly go wrong?

An unplanned pregnancy in a woman with type 1 diabetes can result in the baby having congenital abnormalities. Her control as to be as good as she can possibly get it before she starts TTC. If this storyline continues (can I join the list of those hoping not) it'll be interesting to see if that even gets a mention.

Didn’t Simon and Jacob make up months ago? Why are we getting all this nonsense with Leanne being aghast at them working together now? Also, did Kirk really call the robber a ‘cheeky guy’? He didn’t blow a raspberry, for Christ’s sake - he stole his van!

I’m also wondering if Jodie Prenger is ever going to get a storyline, or if she’s destined to spend her entire time making comedy sides and innuendos.

The Summer storyline gets ever more tedious. I really hope it’s over with soon, I can’t bear much more.

@JemimaTab I'm absolutely bored to tears with it, billy, Paul, Todd and Aaron constantly looking anguished. I'd let her go and not bother looking for her personally !!

Poor old Holy Billy is having to do his best acting there, going all red-faced and all, and there's Summer vocally flat-lining. She could be given the script for Romeo and Juliet and we'd be the ones wanting to top ourselves first.
