Coronation Street Thread - As broadcast - ****NO SPOILERS****. From start August 2024.

[JellyBeanFactory]

Couldn't see a new thread (please delete if there is one!)
So, currently broadcast (and just caught up with) Friday 2nd August. Recap:

Lauren - given birth to baby boy at 24 weeks after Joel hid labour inducing drugs in her soup
Jack - been charged with arson with intent to endanger life (Hope seemed pleased!)
Paul - going to donate his corneas to MND research, much to Bernie's dismay
Beth - lost box of fake t-shirts and told Carla where to stuff her job

What else?

It's Cassie, of course she's going to rip him off!
Ken thinks she likes him but she just likes his money.
Steve fancies Cassie, and Amy has lost all power of rational thought, so Cassie will be able to rinse plenty of cash out of Kenny.

Daniel might be concerned. If Bethany is in Turkey and Daisy is working Ken will be needed to mind Bertie. He won't want Ken heading off to a spa resort.

Ohh and Daniel has lost Beth as well for child care !

Steve told Cassie in no uncertain terms that he thought she was taking advantage of Ken. The way she stared at him was scary. Watch out Steve 🫤

Bethany is going to regret going to Turkey...Daisy is still looking misty eyed at Daniel and hugging him. Bertie likes Daisy. Oh dear.

Hmmm, she already has the puffed-up lips

Oops I must have missed that.

I thought she is looking like she had it reversed recently.
She looks normal again

I'm really hoping that Ken knows what Cassies game is, plays along and then kicks her out.
He's no fool

Cassie & Ken will get married.
he’ll change his will & leave everything to her. 😄

Lots of Corrie spoilers popped up on my tablet today. Don't know how much is true and I'm not really bothered as whatever the writers hit us with will be farcical.

Paul's story is the exception 👍😔

I’ll take another look on Wednesday. I think it looks awful. The worst lips in Corrie are Abbie’s. These people are supposed to be skint, maybe we’re not supposed to be able to tell 🙄🤣

Where are Ken and Cassie going? They’re not going to pop up in Turkey at the same time as Bethany?

Portugal ..Porto ? .
Culture and a spa I think !

Sorry ...I was not questioning that Porto was in Portugal!
Just that I think that is where they are going!

That was a waste of a police interview, all they did was hand Joel ammunition.

I don’t understand what Betsy has done ?

It looks as if she ordered the drugs on Joel's behalf and had them sent to DeeDee's flat.

Betsy needs to tell her mum that but I bet she won’t, nit unless she’s forced too

I think she will sooner or later. It’s obviously bothering her.

Another barely watchable episode, after the interview I switched off. Lauren is incredibly annoying, and Swain has reached such depths of stupidity it defies belief. I originally thought she'd be fired for investigating Joel's old phone, but she needs to be fired for total incompetence.

The only bright spot was Todd and his biscuits.

I like a nice chocolate biscuit.
Can Betsy not give the drug information as more evidence against Joel?

How did I miss that Betsy ordered the drugs !

Was it mentioned out loud ?

Did I have a little snooze 😴 🤔🤔 at the wrong time ? 🤣

Ohh ..I am on a pause !
Not finished the episode yet 🤣

Now I know !

All the soaps have been a hard to watch lately..as in...keeping interested 🤣
