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?

There's a lot of going's on in them woods, hard to keep track.

Eileen's new personality matches her new look. I noticed they squeezed in a little 'Come on Eileen' the other night.

The Stephen plot is ridiculous. He couldn’t be making himself look more guilty if he tried! Why is he just always there every time anyone has a conversation about Leo? The scriptwriters made a sort of half-hearted attempt at having people ask “What’s it got to do with you?”, but seemed to give up halfway through. Even Leo’s dad was happily sharing texts and taking advice from the man who seemingly broke up his son’s relationship.

The only realistic storyline at the moment is Daniel and Daisy. Daisy’s dilemma is genuine and relatable - plus, after a shaky beginning, I feel like they really know how to write for the character.

Is Stevens wife teaming up with Audrey to catch Steven? Or is that too far fetched.

I’m just watching it now and this Stephen nonsense is draggingggggg! Are they building up for Stephen killing Audrey for a their Christmas special or something?! (not a spoiler just my guess)

I agree that Daisy’s storyline is quite realistic as I can genuinely see people having to deal with such a dilema. I wonder how they’re going to get Shona to exit whilst she has her baby

I thought Stephen was burning his clothes that he wore with all the Leo shinanigans...his one and only
suit ......so he had to go to the charity shop to get another one ?

Really? That's another thing I missed!

Stephen has buried Leo near to where he was burning things at night. At the end of that scene the camera panned over to a mound of dirt, it was kinda hard to see it in the dark.

It must be really hard to get rid of a body. Even Haigh, the acid bath murderer, didn't manage it completely.

And has
Stephen dyed his hair at the front

Apologies but I don't watch Corrie regularly ... I've just watched Tyone at the garage, with Fizz and Hope heading off to the Trafford Centre. Where is Ruby these days?

What's with the crappy spider and Peter storyline?! It's beyond tedious

Just rubbish

Is Spider under cover? I can't make head or tail of most of the stories. I suppose Eileen has glammed up for the jungle, but that doesn't explain the personality change.

Eileen has had a bang on head and lost her powers of sarcasm because George led to her to believe that she fleetingly saw an angel. Yeah, right.

Stephen is about to become the latest Gail-related serial killer.

Spider I am surmising is undercover Detective Sargent Nugent from the Prevent Unit, possibly a lower or higher rank - it's like Play Your Cards Right.

Why are Spider and Craig not a working partnership? I really hope Spider and Toyah have a baby, assuming his intentions are honourable. Actually, even if they aren't.

I thought Hope was so rude last night and Tyrone and Fizz totally ineffective

That episode was the first time I’d heard about Hope’s “penpal” when she was taking to Sam. Do we think it could be the journalist that is writing the book about Stape? She didn’t seem too surprised when Fiz and Tyrone talked to he about it

Shes great.

I am way behind on my viewing and reading this thread isn't encouraging me to catch up!

We've seen Hope online to Mad Dog before, he's supposed to be a fellow gamer. But I expect it's someone else! What happened to her half sister, John Stapes other daughter, who was their nanny then kidnapped Hope? Perhaps it's her.

I also assume that by the sly look by Griff back at Max means they are going to try and groom Max into right wing extremism.

That sounds plausible. Max is already a very nasty piece of work IMO.

How is everyone squashing in Ken's including Bertie

Why didn't Daniel go to his own house, is that what Daisy thought was happening

Yes but Daniel let the house out to refugees. Daniel thought they were moving to the pub.

Ah, so Griff's lot are far right and they are trying to recruit Max?

I'm very confused. Did Tyrone say that John Snape was Jade's dad !! Help
