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!

That was an odd scene with Eliza telling her grandad all about her period, and him rushing out to buy pads.

Lorrymum · 08/09/2023 09:09

Fizz would have rocked up as soon as she heard Cassie was back in the picture. She was a tigress with her girls, supervisor job (yeah, right) would have flown out of the window as she rushed home.

PenguinIce · 08/09/2023 09:34

What factory is Fizz supervising at? Is there now a chain of Underworlds?

EachandEveryone · 08/09/2023 11:50

I thought she went back to the flat did I miss a bit?

HelloSquire · 08/09/2023 11:55

No idea @PenguinIce but apparently she's the only person in England who is qualified to do such a mammoth task and carry out the responsibility of who knows what
She is sooooooo busy she can't pop back home for a weekend to see our'ope or new head Ruby
Apparently there are no phones either oop North
Bizarre

Heliotroper · 08/09/2023 14:13

Are there even any knicker factories left in Britain

It is a shame they did not outsource the contract to China and sent Fizz there.

Daffodilsandtuplips · 08/09/2023 14:32

The factory story line with Fizz isn’t as far fetched as it appears.
Many moons ago when I were a young lass working in a clothing factory in the north east I was asked to go to Canada to help set up a branch over there. (The factory bosses had previous for this, they’d set up a new branch further up the north in the U.K.) Two supervisors four regular machinists and a “special machinist” ( one who could use the more complicated buttonhole, hemming, zip setter and sleeve setter machines and that would have been me ) went to Canada for six months to get it established and train the locals. I never did go to Canada, personal reasons prevented it but it was great to have been asked.

Was it being organised by a man called Stephen? If so you might have had a lucky escape!

I know Tyrone is simple minded but his mum has been on drugs for over 40 years and he does not know her and has zero experience of addicts. Keeping her in the flat was a good solution but he moves her back in with him and the girls.

Wonder who pays for the flat

greengreengrass25 · 08/09/2023 21:43

AutumnCrow · 06/09/2023 23:21

Aye, a few completely batshit wee murdurs by Stephen would cheer us all up.

Not Jenny, though. I don't want him pushing her off some historic ramparts on their hols.

Can he murder Cassie

Genius

Glamourreader · 08/09/2023 23:30

I wonder if Mary has anything to say about Evelyn abandoning Tyrone as a baby, isn't that what Mary's mum did when Mary had a baby. For very different reasons.

I think Tyrone said he was going to pay for it. But now she’s moved back in I guess Evelyn will have to pay. I feel sorry for Evelyn, moving out to take Cassie to rehab, coming home then being turfed out, moving back in and then being turfed out again. She slaves away all day for that family and never seems to get a thanks for it.

Cassie did proper rehab with Evelyn but nothing changed. Tyrone is being daft. How long before Hope or Ruby find some pregabalin in her bag and take some?

I hope Fizz never returns. I can’t stand her.

Why is Max so besotted with Sabrina? She’s really annoying. Even more so than Lauren.

Stu isn’t helping his situation by being the Debbie Downer on everything Eliza says.

greengreengrass25 · 09/09/2023 07:51

I really hope Tye comes to his senses with Evelyn, I think Cassie is lying

Also who was manning garage when they were at group and where is Abbie's baby

Clawdy · 09/09/2023 08:04

It's a pity Evelyn's back story is making her less likeable though - booting out her teenage daughter, then later abandoning daughter's baby. Is Cassie her only child, can't remember?

I'm sure there will be more to it

Heliotroper · 09/09/2023 10:49

Stealing your daughter's baby, dumping it outside a police station only for another woman to whisk it away does sound a bit Dickensian.

Tyrone is about 40 so it would have been in the 1980s.

I am guessing the writers are even younger and get it mixed up with Victorian times.

ajandjjmum · 09/09/2023 11:11

I really don't like Cassie - does that mean that the actress is playing the part well? I also feel so sorry for Evelyn - some acknowledgement of her support from Ty and Fizz should be given. Love the friendship she has with Roy too.

Lorrymum · 09/09/2023 11:15

I don't believe Cassie for a second. She is playing the sympathy card and was alarmed when Tyrone threatened to confront Evelyn about the past.

Oh, I missed that bit. So even more trouble and heartbreak ahead ...

She’s certainly a terrible actress.

He is a racist terrorist who lies to her

Not exactly a catch

Viviennemary · 11/09/2023 20:21

That new storyline with that dreadful whiney kid is one of the most boring ever. I think I might stop watching. And the new Tyrone long lost drug addict mum is just as bad.

DerekFaker · 11/09/2023 20:28

I feel bad for being kind of happy that a kid got hit by a car. But it's only telly!
