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.

Horrible

Why was no one around to help

I can’t bear it. I know it’s not real but it actually makes my stomach churn

Sean seems to have borrowed JJ off MAFS jumper

That was a rubbish search - should have checked down legs and socks.

I was just thinking the same.

He didn't even search his trouser pockets or shoes/socks, did he?

Call yesself a copper, Arcraigy?

Me too, found that really upsetting, bless his heart 😢

Who was the little blond boy playing video games with Liam?

Jake, Issy and Gary's son

Alright Jenny enough with the monologue

Mason's a cracking bully though, good acting, he scares me.

Thank you

Does Mason wear false lashes? They’re very prominent.

That needed Elgar's Nimrod playing in the background to a crescendo.

And for Daisy to say, 'all right, Jenny, it's just a sodding pub, luv'.

No worries

The lad playing the one being bullied is doing it very convincingly.

Just as I mention Simon never having a storyline they go and give him one 😐 but am wondering how that will go 😕

The bullying situation though is horrible and I suppose it was only a matter time before the subject was raised. Oh Liam, that was so sad to watch him sobbing in bed.

Mason will get what's coming to him soon enough hopefully but young Liam looks so desperate I hope the writers don't get it wrong.

And for Daisy to say, 'all right, Jenny, it's just a sodding pub, luv'.
If only Bet Lynch was around

So Arcraigy has been demoted! Back to plodding the cobbles in a high viz vest. He looked almost smart in his suit so what's all that about? Plus is it realistic for a p.c. to patrol the street he lives on?

Fair play to Jake calling the police, he's the only one with any cop on.

Dylan needs to speak up, I know he's scared, but Liam is terrified for god sake.

The search was pathetic, checked his bag and his arms, end of search 🤦

Would we actually miss The Rovers if it never opened again, there hasn't been anyone in it since covid restrictions were lifted, well apart from a stalker and a serial killer of course.

Dylan needs to speak up, I know he's scared, but Liam is terrified for god sake.

It might help if Sean would stop with the drama queen shouting and screeching his supposed support and concern for his son.

Sean has to be the most obnoxious character on the street now, and that's saying a lot! Seems unlikely Dylan would want to carry on living with him.

Hope could sort Mason out. Poor Liam.

I did wonder if someone had cocked up the continuity when I saw Craig back plodding the beat.

I didn't watch last night and reading your comments I won't bother to catch up! Did they refer to ArCraigy being back in uniform?

@AutumnCrow I thought exactly the same about equity release so I googled, and you can buy back. I suppose they are trying to show continuing consequences from Stephen’s reign of terror like they did with Hillman (Hillman remortgaged Gail’s house).

Gareth Pierce (Todd) is brilliant, I knew him from The Archers where he used his Welsh accent. He really needs a decent storyline of his own although not much hope of that nowadays.

I agree with the comments about a cast clear out. The Baileys would be first on my list, Dee Dee is great, Ronnie is okay, but the rest can go in the bin. Aggie seems to have taken the hint and disappeared off her own bat.

Mason is terrible, they seem to be trying to replicate Aiden (from the Hillman years) who was a similar character but much more fleshed out and a good actor.

Who wants to bet the Rovers will reopen in a few weeks looking more or less the same, with all the same staff.
