Emily could be quite mean to Percy though. I was more fond of him than her.

That's what I loved about Classic Corrie... revisiting Percy and Phyllis.

Percy was Mrs Bishops lodger. A sort of Norris busybody. Phyllis pursued him relentlessly.
Nowadays Phyllis would have murdered him in the ginnel.

Percy was great, remember the man who liked Phylis who had a dog in his bag

Also Mona, Maureen's mother

After he tried to stop her robbing the bistro

I grew up in area surrounded by streets just like Corrie. Every street had a Phylis, an Elsie Tanner and an Emily Bishop.

eggandonion · 20/05/2023 22:27

My parents had a friend called Emily who was a bit of an Elsie Tanner. She had a very long affair with a police man . Very scandalous in 1970s Northern Ireland.
The classic series are getting a bit dark now.

Whereas characters like the local serial killer and local racist terrorist are a bit more thin on the ground

Anyone else tired of episodes being introduced with
"contains scenes some viewers may find upsetting"
Its supposed to be light entertainment!

woodhill · 22/05/2023 20:05

Keep thinking of Bullseye

In one 😅

I find it even more irritating that my husband replies every time with “I find every episode of Coronation st upsetting”

That's exactly what I said to DP when it was starting!

😀Mine says the same thing.

I love how Tim drops Busta Bloodvessel into conversation from time to time but never actually listens to any music. Apart from the occasional blast of Sally Cinnamon when his marriage hits the skids 🤣

TellingBone · 22/05/2023 20:39

Gemma's had an easy time of learning her lines for weeks now:

'Oh we couldn't possibly...!'

'Oh thank you!'

woodhill · 22/05/2023 20:43

I love the way Chesney was ironing and Gemma on her iPad and the quads sit there demurely not wanting any interaction

In your dreams

Tortiemiaw · 22/05/2023 20:46

Craig is soooo annoying
The acting is just dreadful, all the bloody stammering and looking surprised. It really really irritates me!1

Tortiemiaw · 22/05/2023 20:47

I-I-I-I <ramble ramble>

TellingBone · 22/05/2023 20:55

You're dead now Sam

Loved that though: 'It's not me. It's you' 😅

AutumnCrow · 22/05/2023 20:57

Paul's just seen next week's script.

eggandonion · 22/05/2023 20:59

Hope should go to Norwich and have a spin off series. Well done Sam but watch your back.

Heliotroper · 22/05/2023 21:32

Sam will move onto Eliza

The tweenage girls love him

eddiemairswife · 22/05/2023 21:50

Sam seems to get smaller every time he's on.

Sam seems to get smaller every time he's on.

He has inherited the small frame with big hair gene from Granny Gail

David has it too

Yes she was horrible to Percy, she barely tolerated him poor man, watching it on Classic was quite painful, she’s not particularly nice to Norris either but Percy was a different league.
