Coronation Street **NO SPOILERS** Stephen situation grim. What's he done with Nice but Tim?

[TellingBone]

No sign of @womanstanleywoman2 but old thread full.

Looking forward to the Stephen denouement now.

Yes I hated all the sex talk last night tbh especially the scene with David.

"To me, to you" 😄

I wondered why their titchy flat had such a massive bathroom.....and yes, the sex talk was a bit cringey.

That bathroom was enormous !

Especially for a small 2 bed flat.

I have a 3 bed house , and no way would I be able to lie on the floor if I did my back in ....and I am only small
🤣🤣!

I wonder if it is the same script writer who does the sex talk scenes ?

There are always loads of sex talk , innuendos in Sally and Tim's scenes .

Being fitted for a going out bra? Was that a dig at her shape???

Just an excuse as to where she was...lots of mumsnet people get properly fitted bras. Not from Marks.

I saw Paul in Tesco today.

No it wasn’t a dig. It’s a witty comment about the bras in underworld and their colours. You need to read the past couple of pages PadloandGutheGreySqirrels.

I hope you grassed him up to the DWP.

(In the old days, 'baddie' actors used to report being hit by flying handbags in supermarkets. Not sure how true that was though!)

The sex talk really put me off my yogurt, but I did enjoy the final (massive) bathroom scene.

My guess with the Gemma/Joseph storyline is that she’s developing Munchausen by proxy due to the stress of Paul’s illness.

Oh God, no, but I bet you are correct.

I might have missed it, had to nip out but with Paul, how does a couple of bouts of coughing then make him have a 6-12 month diagnosis when he had 3 years?

I assume it is to do with his swallow and breathing starting to weaken? Paul could have been excellent...some parishioner of Billys could have been the mnd character.

Paul is a great believable character can't believe they are killing him off, billy would have been a better choice.

I vote for Sean being killed off and Dylan being sent back to London and Mason vanishing. I would also send Lauren and Courtney away to open a nail bar elsewhere. Possibly with Crystal who seems potentially annoying.

Sean and Dylan don't have a very believable parent-child relationship. I can't put my finger on it. Sean doesn't seem to show him much affection, they never have a laugh (I have teens and it's not entirely impossible) and he speaks to his kid as he would any other kid.

I know we mention this a lot, but do they ever mention where everyone is supposed to be sleeping at Eileen's?

Where is Eileen

I think she is somewhere playing Mother Superior in Sister Act!

Is there something wrong with Gemmas mouth? Constantly looks like she is gurning after taking an E.

I also wonder what the angle they are going for with her character. Is she going to have some kind of breakdown perhaps?

🤣

Gemma's gurning gob? I think that's meant to be her version of " good acting " She seems to have a very nice voice when not in Corrie.

Well Bernie will get life, obvs.
