Kev is Ty's dad?

That was what I thought. My imagination getting carried away, but the storylines are so shit in recent months I wouldn’t be surprised 🤣

You could be into something. Maybe Abi is Evelyn’s secret child 🤣

I'm still confused by Cassie and Tyrones 'other' mum (the one played by Margi Clarke. ) So Tyrone is Cassies son, but ?Evelyn left him at the police station....so how did Margi Clarke end up with him? And was Evelyn aware Margi Clatke had him?

Evelyn's daughter Cassie was an addict, so Evelyn left Tyrone on the steps of a police station because she was trying to get Cassie clean and didn't think they could cope with a baby too. Jackie Dobbs (played by Margi Clarke) found him and raised him as her own.

When Jackie died Tyrone was informed she wasn't his biological mother. He tracked down Evelyn who told him his real mother had moved to South Africa and died there. Evelyn assumed she had died because she hadn't heard from her in years.

Cassie then turns up, back from SA (we didn't see this, only Evelyn going to "visit" friends) and Evelyn then tried to get Cassie clean over (again) so that she could meet Tyrone and the girls eventually

But Cassie jumped the gun and spilled the beans to Tyrone at the show that she is his real mother and Evelyn's daughter.

Now we'll get two sides of the story and have to decide who is telling the truth about everything!

What a crock of shit though who thought up this utter nonsense?
It really is a shambles when the viewers have to ask what's going on

Continuity error there. Cassie cleaning when Ty comes in. Cut to break. Next shot Cassie has a jacket on and a bag over her shoulder.

Lorrymum · 19/08/2023 09:22

I used to love Corrie but I can't relate to all the drug stories. Wouldn't Ryan still be on medication after his accident? Did Debbie Webster manage to sort out her finances after near bankruptcy? Just the person you want to get financial advice about stocks and shares from!

Heliotroper · 19/08/2023 09:48

I loved Roy when he pointed out to Evelyn that she never shows remorse. It was him at his understated best and considering the fact that she stole a child from its mother and abandoned it for anyone to pick up he really should be phoning the police.

Heliotroper · 19/08/2023 09:50

Drug stories are the worst, this one looks incredibly predictable down to the identikit 'druggie' outfit Cassie sports.

I noticed that too especially as I watch on catchup and no ads!

The Newton & Ridley "takeover" is pants. Assume it's a vehicle for one - or both - of the Bailey Brothers (which always reminds me of Its a Wonderful Life where the bank went broke!) losing all the money they've just made.

I like new-head Ruby, she has some great expressions.

bizzey · 19/08/2023 10:42

So what is with the Cassie drug storyline?

In the flat with Evelyn she said she wasn't taking pregabalin any more....and low and behold she has a pack in her bag .
And never did explain what she did with the money she took from Evelyn.

Is it all going to end in tears....with everyone being horrible to Evelyn...but in fact ....she was right all along ?

Anyone who is up to no good or on drugs, must, by Corrie Law be wearing a grubby looking baseball cap pulled down over their eyes.

The actress is on maternity leave but they sent the character there to run a factory for them.

Thanks. I knew the actress was on mat leave, but couldn't remember why the character had gone.

Why was Carla making Ryan's bed ?! He's not a child.

bizzey · 19/08/2023 11:42

Carla making the bed was to remind us all that Ryan is going to slip up soon and Carla will find out !
🤣!

He has an excuse now to go into his room ...to check his zing/Yang/zen /ying ( whatever it is !)
for his wellbeing by making bed and leaving his washing on his bed ..

At least she didn't put it away for him !

Usually with the hoodie too

bizzey · 19/08/2023 11:48

I think I need to re- think my style of clothing when I nip to the shop for an emergency pint of milk ,🤣🤣.

It usually includes ..joggers,hoodie and baseball cap to cover the messy unwashed hair due to the fact ..I haven't had my morning cuppa yet!!

I doubt if I could ever pull off the glowing white teeth though ...so I might be safe from my local friendly shopkeeper thinking I am in drugs 🤣🤣🤣

woodhill · 19/08/2023 11:49

Claire Sweeny is only 12 years' older than Alan Halsall in real life

bizzey · 19/08/2023 11:52

They do come across as more brother and sister than son and mum .

AutumnCrow · 19/08/2023 11:52

So, it is foolish to muse what is written on Tyrone's birth certificate?

bizzey · 19/08/2023 11:55

I think Margie is on the birth certificate?

He would have needed it for his marriage and I am sure he has been abroad so must have a passport ?

bizzey · 19/08/2023 11:56

Though how Margie got the birth certificate is another thing !
