Coronation Street Thread. **NO SPOILERS PLEASE.** Currently in early June 2024

[SabreIsMyFave]

Following on from the last thread, that started in late April 2024.

Joel's the baddie, and Lauren is still missing
Roy's a free man, and Carla and Swain are close to kissing
Will Bethany quit moaning, she does it all the time!
Sarah is still hot, but needs to slow down on the wine

Leanne's missing too, has that cult bloke kidnapped her then?
And where are the quads, does anyone ever see them?
Paul's still alive, hanging on and on in there
Cop Kit's a bit tasty but a bit annoying and hard to bear

Not much with the Platts or the Barlows or The Rovers
Carla's pub money being stolen by Jenny and Daisy has been glossed over
Adam still has his wacky hair that's a bit greasy
Daniel's still boring, yet the cutest girls to him come easy

The school bully storyline has eased off a bit
So Maria can chill - and Sarah can get off with Kit
I hope it's OK for me to start this new thread my friends
I wonder where we'll be at when this thread ends?

Thanks for the thread.

I’ll be fuming if they make Carla a lesbian. I suppose it does happen though and we haven’t had any of those shenanigans since Sophie. Is Sophie still with us btw?

👍

It will be typical coronation street scriptwriters to make Carla a lesbian to fit a story line. They don’t respect the years of character building that previous scriptwriters have done over the years..

Great new thread.

Checking in

Bye Si 👋👋👋

So I guess he's killed this other girl as well

I wish people would stop having private conversations in public places. And Craig could stop working on the street where he lives.
Although I don't know where he actually lives now.

Just watching this now. Recorded it earlier. So Leanne is back! She hasn't been kidnapped by the culty bloke then?! And what a nerve for her to pull a face coz Simon is going away. She hasn't been there for weeks!

And Abi has had another video put up online?! A deepfake I assume? Only 20 minutes in at the moment.

Well done Bethany you genius, giving Ellie’s details to the police means she’s now at the bottom of the canal.

So Craig discusses the disappearance of a potential witness with Bethany in front of Nathan’s solicitor?? (It is really irksome the way characters constantly happen to be in the right room overhearing things, then again how else would this dire plot progress.)

Leanne has paid all that money to the Institute and yet she is still narky and miserable. What a waste of money.

I know Alex Bain was upset to leave Corrie but he did a good job of giving Simon a positive exit.

@Freysimo I agree. It is such a shame. So much screen time to fill has been disaster for Corrie. It was probably at its best in the days or 3 or 4 half hour episodes a week.

I think Ellie and Lauren are now together in another grotty place.
And together they can plan their escape.

@eggandonion well it is Corrie and Phelan kept Andy imprisoned for months for ... er dunno, plot reasons! But if Joel kept them locked in a room what would be the endgame? He could never let them out. He'd be aged 70 and still pushing food underneath a door for them 😄

Totally

He seems to have so much time to investigate.

Anyone else think that Leanne was talking to a photograph of Oliver at the end? I guess we're supposed to think she was talking to CultyGuy, but I think that was a bit of a misdirection

Was Joel coming out of a shop or lock up?
Sort of pull down grills as he emerged?
Is Lauren drugged and in there ?
Ellie as well?

Craig and his flappy gob would has been dismissed by now!

I thought she was talking to Oliver. I still have an occasional rant at DP as to why isn’t he here especially when he was the one who knew how to mend a leaking tap/ repair the bloody gate that’s broken again etc etc

Lauren and the other girl could well be alive. I reckon Joel is their pimp.

He couldn’t surely have killed Ellie, he’d never have had time to clean up. He must be a bloody expert cleaner. No DNA to be found in Lauren’s flat..

As for Craig!! As if he’d have a conversation with Bethany that he knew he shouldn’t be having right in front of a solicitor!! My ex was a policeman and he wouldn’t even drive through the area he worked in, let alone live there!

It’s just so insulting to us . There are no boundaries at all. I missed abit though, how did Kev find out about Cassie slagging off Abbey?

Yes I wondered that too. I wonder if I missed a bit one episode.

How DID Kev find out Cassie has been slating Abi?

I am also wondering who Leanne was talking to. There didn't seem to be anyone else there. And yeah Joel can't have killed Ellie surely??? He would not have had time - to kill her, AND clean up the mess, and get rid of her body!

Fabulous opening post Sabrels 😊

I'm place marking until I catch up, not sure I posted much on the last thread.

I just hope all the Lauren stuff is over soon.

Fabulous opening post Sabrels 😊

😘

Cassie is awful. She needs to go off to the institute. If Alina and baby Poppy ever return Cassie will be the granny from hell.
Didn't Tyrone and Alina live with Craig and Whatsit. So where is Craig living?

Kev just overheard Cassie slagging off Abi - he was with Abi when they both overheard. They both walked in as Cassie was bitching to Tyrone.

Cassie is vile yes! And I don't know where Craig lives. Never thought about that! I wonder if Alina will come back too.

Where is Fizz just lately?

Ah ha thanks! I missed that bit.
