Chat away to your heart’s content about invisible quads, terrible children’s clothing designs that are apparently groundbreaking, Stephen’s bizarre whispering and much more!

Does Steven really like Jenny, or is he just after her money. A bit of both perhaps?

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 30/08/2023 23:39

I think Stephen might actually like Jenny.

CyanCrystalViolet · 31/08/2023 00:19

I was also wondering about the 90 days lsd thing. I don’t understand how that’s going to work, surely she remembers when her symptoms started and ended?

I did notice Carla’s lips looked a bit poutier than usual but hadn’t clocked the filler. Daisy’s lips and cheeks on the other hand keep getting bigger and bigger.

If the LSD stays in your system for 90 days then will it still be detectable in your hair for longer? Unless you shave your head regularly that is.

I know nothing about how drug testing works.

I am still laughing at kev an Dirk !

Roy said it can be detected in her hair for up to 90 days, which seems to tie in with my quick google detailed medical researches.

But that would only take her back to early June at best, and she was recovered and not being drugged by then, wasn't she?? So her test will have to be negative. Which will prove nowt. So will be pointless.

Ah right. Maybe the test will come back negative and then everyone will think Carla is suffering from paranoid delusions then.

Well, that does seem to be where it's headed - but between Roy, Carla and Dr Gaddas, they would have the brains to work out the 'episodes' happened in March and then stopped when she went on her extended break, so the test would be a waste of time and money. But do the writers? (Have the brains.)

Or maybe it's a story arc to bring us back to Stephen and Rufus? Carla suspects Rufus was the likely source of the LSD, I believe, so perhaps it's only a matter of time before she formulaically sleuths her way to the truth against insuperable odds (nagging from Peter and Roy, looks of grave concern from Dr Gaddas, Stephen's long face and looooong vowels). I can barely wait. Not.

EachandEveryone · 31/08/2023 10:00

Is Jenny a gonna do we think?

JellyBeanFactory · 31/08/2023 10:02

Agree with PPs, Carla will suspect Rufus and blame will head his way.

Anyone else feel slightly nauseous when Jenny led Steven up the stairs... 🥴

Not liking the Tyrone/Cassie storyline, it's all been done before, hope she doesnt end up a permanent character.

Where are Jack, Sam etc. surely everyone would be running around for new shoes, bag, stationery ready for return to school.

I wonder what Stephen would want from her? He's not going to be able to take The Rovers, is he?

The money she is going to get selling The Rovers to Newton & Ridley!

Oh of course! Having a bit of a dosy moment there!

He is a right creep

He is! Seeing her go all gooey over him is a bit ridiculous. She could so so much better.

🍆by the looks of it 😂

CyanCrystalViolet · 31/08/2023 18:44

It's nauseating 😳 Poor Leo, dead in a bin while his girlfriend shags his murderer.

This Debbie/Ronnie/whatshisname storyline is so boring. I tend to start scrolling as soon as they come on the screen. DeeDee is lovely but I wish the rest of the Bailey family would fall down a sinkhole.

I was surprised by Roy's response to Carla. I thought that was somewhat uncharacteristic of him. The storyline makes me very uncomfortable.

Lorrymum · 31/08/2023 19:04

Feel the same about the Baileys. DeeDee is great but Michael looks and sounds permanently surprised, Ed seems to struggle remembering his lines and Aggie has just disappeared.

TellingBone · 31/08/2023 20:31

Michael's permanent Corrie expression:

Good of Dr Gaddas to pop in for a brew with Carla on her way home. I wish my GP would do that.

CherryogDog · 01/09/2023 00:20

I'm surprised by Roy's reaction to Carla, considering it happened to him in the past.

HelloSquire · 01/09/2023 07:54

What's Roy done ? What reaction ? Still can't watch it as abroad

eggandonion · 01/09/2023 08:24

Im away too...more questions than answers here!😉

What happened to the footballer son? Did he die?
