Classic Corrie Thread. Now in September 2004.

Continuing from the last thread when 2003 begins! Doesn't time fly in Classic Corrie? The last thread was started 10 months ago, and we have powered through a year and 8 months in that time (20 months.) Wonder where we will be by the end of this one? (If it does eventually come to an end?) Grin

Karen (McDonald) has been stressing about the death of her mum - and trying to be a better person, Martin and Katie are still together, (though Katie's dad Tommy is unimpressed by it,) Kelly Crabtree has just come in, Cilla abandoned Chesney to go on holiday with Les, Sunita and Dev are together at last, and Maya is about to go on a rampage after appearing to forge Sunita's signature for something.

Also, Sean has just come in and started living with Eileen (still is I think!) Jason and Todd are still in it, and Danny Baldwin and his wife Frankie are in charge of Underworld now, with Daniel's 'Uncle Mike' taking lots more time off. Oh, and Danny's son Jamie has just arrived, followed by Frankie and Danny's son Warren...

Charlie the builder is dating Shelly the barmaid, and Sally has just recently started turning into a snob. Jack (Duckworth) was dressed as Ida Fagg posing as a woman for the bowls team, and Norris, Blanche, and Emily have been playing poker!

Roy and Hayley are still together, Ciaran the handsome Irish barman is trying to start up his own business with Penny King, Steve seems to be warming to his little daughter (baby Amy,) and at the moment, there doesn't seem to be much drama with Gail and Audrey's family, or the Barlows, or the Websters, or with Fred and Ashley. Ashley and Clare are dating, but it's still a bit up in the air.

Hope I haven't missed much out, but that covers most stuff going on right now I think. Let's see how much has changed by the end of this thread. Smile

Watching the Southport scenes - I’m a bit behind with Corrie due to watching the Olympics. I’d never really heard of Southport until this week. 😔 😔
I read that Jean Alexander lived there and has a memorial bench there. Apparently she campaigned for a library for the town too…Roy would be chuffed!

Southport is like Blackpools poor relattion really in terms of what to do and the sea is always really far out to paddle

Angela’s hair gets on my nerves. Tie it back for gods sake woman.

foothandmouth · 01/08/2024 13:39

I'm a few days behind. Just want to say. Deirdre is the best cryer on tv

whomoon · 01/08/2024 15:26

Steve’s new lady friend from the park - how terrible is her acting?! Couldn’t have been that difficult to find someone with some acting experience to play the part..! It’s excruciating

SwankyPants · 01/08/2024 15:48

She's very familiar, can't place her though

SwankyPants · 01/08/2024 16:08

Ooh came to me, she's in The Descent!

salamithumbs · 01/08/2024 20:49

She was also in that film about the Magdalene laundries I think!

thenightsky · 02/08/2024 17:59

I don't think Katie has washed her hair since she whacked Tommy. Bet there's evidence there.

x2boys · 02/08/2024 18:18

So what happened in Audrey's Garden ?
Was it another sink hole?

foothandmouth · 02/08/2024 18:38

Oh who's that guy Tracy picked up at the pub. I'm sure i recognise him

He's been in quite a few things and ends up being in quite a few corrie episodes.

Yeah I think he sticks around in Corrie for a good while. I once spent ages trying to figure out why someone in Classic Eastenders was so familiar and it turned out I recognised them from…Eastenders (the first time round).

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 03/08/2024 11:57

i wondered about the sinkhole too! That would be a big coincidence. But maybe just a chance to laugh at Fred’s weight???

SabreIsMyFave · 06/08/2024 18:45

Have I missed something? Why does Tracy suddenly hate Ray? They were getting along OK a couple of episodes back. Confused

I'm not sure why Tracey luv has changed her tune @SabreIsMyFave .

OCaledonia · 06/08/2024 18:57

My recordings today both show up as episode 72, no idea where episode 71 is. Were there two different episodes today please, just mislabeled? I don't want to start watching just in case.

Yes there were two different episodes today 🙂

OCaledonia · 06/08/2024 19:56

I've only been able to watch that one where Ray is in the pub during the hokey cokey, the one immediately following yesterday's register office wedding. It's saying on the blurb, episode 72 celebrating 6000 episodes. But I can't actually find the real episode 72 which celebrates 6000 episodes.
I think they're mislabeled, I've actually watched e71 today.

OCaledonia · 06/08/2024 20:07

Success! I've managed to find the episode 72 on ITV player. 🤦‍♀️

Odd isn't it?

I think Tracey was angry at Ray because he wanted to go back to Holland & his dog. She was upset because he'd rather die with his dog than stay with people who cared about him.

I've really enjoyed Ray's storyline, it feels like a fitting end to the character. Causing trouble to the last.

thenightsky · 07/08/2024 17:50

Only one episode today, or has my box gone on strike?

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 07/08/2024 17:56

I have two today but I only had one yesterday!

thenightsky · 07/08/2024 18:23

The only one I had was where Katie was found unconscious and taken to hospital. It ended where she was still unconscious and Angie had been refused a visit to see her.

Should there be another after that?
