Classic Corrie - 2003 begins! Maxine’s met a sticky end, but dear old Emily’s on the mend, and Maria’s betrayed her dearest friend

[WomanStanleyWoman2]

Place your bets for how many years out of date the storylines in the title will be by the end of the thread… 😁

For those who hate the Roy and Tracy storyline, how she drugged him and then allegedly had sex with him, (and it is a horrible storyline,) it actually gets worse. I don't know if you can all remember it, but the storyline does get a lot worse over the next few months. Tracy's behaviour is abysmal!

As has been said, the one about Martin and Katy is quite awkward to watch too. (And THAT is a pretty horrible storyline too!) Makes me cringe!

And also, as another poster said, we have the issue with Peter and Shelley staying at the pub when they are still renting the builder’s yard flat and have the flat above the bookies? Also, why could TracyLuv not stay there?

I think the mid noughties many be the start of (some of) the Corrie storylines getting daft or just generally bad.

And yes, Katie's hair is ridiculous, but yes, as a few posters have said, Victoria Beckham had it like that same time. Victoria is gorgeous, but this hairstyle is hilariously bad! 😁

What on earth was Katie's outfit today when she came out of Roy's rolls? 😂 floral skirt, weird clown top, weird boots and a denim jacket, complemented by the Rod Stewart hair cut. 🙈

It was farcical wasn't it? 😆

Victoria Beckham is lovely looking, as is Lucy-Jo Hudson, but neither could carry off that terrible hair.

I also think that the Corrie stylist must have taken a dislike to her - some seriously unflattering outfits there 😂

I’m a few episodes behind and Tracy is an evil whatsit. Poor Roy. I am surprised when Amy in modern Corrie was drugged by having her drink spiked that no one said about what she had done to Roy. Her family knows, Roy knows and others know. My dislike of Bev has grown, she is an awful woman.

Only one episode today, or has my box failed to capture the 2nd one?

Only one today.

Why only today?

I can only see one today too 😞

Yes only one today. I think it's because one of the Classic Emmerdale episodes was an hour long so there was only time for one Corrie episode

Very disappointing. I like my two episodes ! However I caught Classic emmerdale and John Snape was playing a detective in it.

Emmerdale constant Pc swirling was Arnie’s pretend surveyor the other day 🙂

Does everyone find out that Tracey actually drugged Roy? I can’t remember

Catching up on this weeks episodes! Loving the drama. Also was never that fussed about Kevin before but I am liking him more this week.

Also did everyone else only have one episode today ☹️?

Yeah just one. I have searched forward to next Tuesday on my TV Guide though, and we have 2 episodes tomorrow, 2 Friday, 1 Monday, and 2 Tuesday.

Then (annoyingly!) we have the Snooker British Open all afternoon on Wednesday (27th September,) on ITV3, and no Classic Corrie at all that day! Can't see any further ahead than next Wednesday on my TV guide.

Isn't it annoying how SPORT trumps everything?

I.haven't been watching classic corrie for a,while as no.tv ,but recently got a new on and Binge watched the last few weeks
The Martin / Katie story line is just gross ,he's always been a ladies man but to date a girl.who.has just left school is completely out of character ,and im.sure it would be a safe guarding issue if his bosses found out ?I didn't like it the first time but 20 years on with teens of my own it's just completely inappropriate.

The Martin/Katie storyline is horrid, but just watched yesterdays and anyone else have to think “oh Kevin” at some of the things he was saying to Martin? Little does he know. The age gap of near enough 20 years, betrayal of his friend… I know Molly was older but the age gap was the same!

I haven't watched yesterday's yet
But as I recall.Molly was an adult and married Katie is 16 and just left school.which is what I find so.abhorrent Martin should know better .

Hayley and Roy just walked into Gail's through a new door, there's a window where the door should be

Natalie must have been a lot older than kevin.
Did Bails house get remodelled with the garage extension.

I thought this!

The age gap thing keeps bringing to mind Russell effing Brand - yuck.

Good to see you back x2boys.

Aw,thankyou!😘
Tracy's pretty vile right now why is she dragging the croppers into.this? (we know how it turns out )
I think Sarah dud pretty well in her GCSE,s considering she got pregnant at 12had a baby at 13her parents subsequently split up.and her mum married a serial killer!she still got 3 B,sand twoC,s!

As @x2boys said, Molly was much older than Katy. Molly was 25, and Kevin was 44. So yeah the age gap was very similar, but 25 and 44 is much more acceptable than 16 and 34.

I’ve said that I find it horrid, just that the parts about the years and betrayal of friends made me shake my head at the future writers. Tbh I shouldn’t be shocked with Kevin, he’s very good at the one rule for you one for me, as seen with “how dare sally have an affair”. I know how the M&K story goes but can anyone remember how long it goes on for? I can’t watch their creepy cuddles etc much longer - you’ve really got to feel for the actor, can’t blame him for being horrified by the storyline so much.

Anyone else shocked at Sally? Obviously knew that there was going to be a personality transplant but I couldn’t really remember when it happened - it was so sudden! And oh poor Sophie!!

@x2boys Got to love Gail’s expectations! Two near death experiences in exam year, one with some serious head injuries, but yes Gail it’s all that evil Todd’s fault!
