So sadly we lost Paul, the air has been chilly.
Bernie had a rave, and Summer is comforting Billy.
Todd is a dude, and David's quite a lark.
It'll be Christmas by the next thread, and really quite dark.

Cassie is a sly one, she's taking Ken in.
I wish the naughty scouser would get in the bin.
Gail and Audrey don't have much going on at the mo.
And Stu and Yasmeen are always on the go.

Poor Bethany was slim but she got liposuction.
The fallout from the procedure has caused quite a ruction.
She owes so many thousands, you just wouldn't believe.
The clinic have her passport so she simply can't leave.

Damon's creeped out of the woodwork for a minute.
It's none of his business but he's poked his nose in it.
Offering Sarah dodgy cash he's got hidden away.
Sarah may have to take it. It may be the only way.

The pub is fairly quiet, and not much going on there
Daisy, Jenny, and Glenda all have fab hair!
Daniel is fussing around Bethany all the time
And people blame him for Bethany, like he's committed a crime.

Fizz is very pregnant, but may not keep the baby.
Tyrone really wants to, and says 'can we, maybe?'
Hope and Ruby fancy a new sister or brother.
But we know who'll be looking after it, Yep, the mother!

Carla and Lisa are vibing quite nice.
You can see their reactions when they look in each others eyes.
Mason's trying to go straight, but is he for real?
Or will he go back to his old ways, and bully and steal?

Kit has been fairly quiet, and the quads have been too!
What's the point of the quads, what do they even do?
Can't think of much else going on right now.
And can't get this last bit to rhyme. Grin

Does Carla own her apartment...does she have to downsize due to her divorce? I can't believe Peter isn't coming back with a nice new jigsaw.

And a fleecy throw.

Hang on. Nick and Toyah had a thing?? WTAF. Not sure I can handle this. That's too weird.

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 17/10/2024 23:47

@SabreIsMyFave I agree with you about Sam. He’s awful. His voice is getting more and more irritating over time. I’m not surprised Hope dumped him.

Where have you been? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Interesting thought about Nathan being Joel's killer or what about Stu and that's why he left so abruptly? (Although not sure what his motive might be).

When's Aliyah due back from Ireland? She was DeeDee's bestie, maybe she was in on it?

I hope we don't get flashback after flashback, it'll be like Groundhog Day. Just wrap it up!

He's like an annoying little Ewok, who's in dire need of a haircut.

WiddlinDiddlin · 18/10/2024 03:41

It does all seem rather too obvious, for it to be the Baileys, after they were seen in the precinct threatening/duffing Joel up, after DeeDee told them pretty categorically to leave him the fuck alone...

But then they are both thick as two short planks...

Nathan is a good one, what has happened to him, he can't still be locked up can he? Or was he back in after breaking his probation/licence, having USBs of young girls in his posession?

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · 18/10/2024 04:02

Sam's aphrodisiac chat with Ruby was cringe.

AmusedMaker · 18/10/2024 07:03

I find Sam a bit cringe full stop.

helgel · 18/10/2024 08:07

Not sure how Sam's character will work as he gets older. New head?

Shellingbynight · 18/10/2024 08:21

We are bound to get more Joel type flashbacks to wrap up the Joel whodunnit (whether he’s dead or not!)

It can’t be Nathan, he remained in jail as he was sentenced for having illegal porn on the tablet/phone which they found.

I agree I cannot see Sam working as an adult character. He barely works now.

PaininthePreferbial · 18/10/2024 08:37

Could it be the guy from the previous office who helped DeeDee with evidence? He's been on a few times so he wouldn't be too left field and he's dispensable. I don't know what his motive would be though, I didn't pay him that much attention when he was on.

I had to do a double take when I saw Carla coming in to view the house. I thought she was still recovering financially after the Stephen fiasco and Jenny and Daisy syphoning off her money.

Yeah. The characters in these soaps do have a tendency to pull multiple 10s of thousands of pounds out of their arse, don't they, when they want to buy a house or a pub or a business!!! (Sometimes 100s of 1000s! As you said, where is Carla getting the money from for Gail's house?!)

It's just one of those bizarre soap opera things ... Like when they pack up their life into two suitcases and piss off into the sunset when they want to leave. In reality, I'd need 15 suitcases just for my CDs, DVDs, my vinyl albums and singles, and all my books. and it would take me about three months to pack everything.

And as for all the logisitics/the finances etc, like selling the house, finding somewhere else to live, finding a job, blah blah blah. It'd be an absolute nightmare. Just unbelievable how they just move into a new life within 15 minutes.

Then people who come IN seem to find a place to live, and a job within a day. And I have lost count of the amount of long lost relatives who have popped up (many who have never been mentioned before.)

And of course, they all work in Coronation Street, and pretty much all live In Coronation Street, and often date someone in Coronation Street! It's incredibly bizarre. I don't know any place in real life like this ...

Even many years ago when people lived close to where they worked - and socialised with people close by, they didn't actually date, and marry, and have babies, ONLY with someone who lived in their street, and then just keep swapping with other people in the street. 😬

The back room at the Rovers changes completely every so often, but they never mention it being decorated or getting new furniture. It just happens over night.

2 seater sofas and tiny tables in large households.

JewelleryCat · 18/10/2024 10:36

Maybe Carla just likes looking around houses and has no intention of buying. Being a nosy neighbour and all that lol

LOL. 😆 And also the kitchen, lounge, and dining room is all in one 14 X 13 ft space. Even my nan who had a 2-up/2 down miners cottage (built mid 1800s,) had a kitchen/diner separate from the sitting room/lounge. It's all in one place in some of the homes in the street!

I wonder how much Gail's house would cost irl ? I'm thinking it's probably to most expensive house on the street because of the downstairs bedroom and en suite. I know there's no garage but I don't think Sallys or Yasmeens has one either? And they don't have a drive as such, just a space next to Kevin's garage. So maybe £250k?

Probably is worth a fair amount @NCTDN

I could be talking absolute nonsense here, but isn't there a body buried under Gail's downstairs bedroom?

eggandonion · 18/10/2024 13:51

I thought the body was found and murder blamed on Jason's dad. That might have been a different murder.

Yes! I remember that!

Lorrymum · 18/10/2024 14:58

What happened about the sink hole in Gail's garden?

Is that Callum that Kylie killed and then Sarah had a breakdown and needed to go to a clinic to get better?

Shellingbynight · 18/10/2024 15:50

@Lorrymum the sinkhole was filled in. The big collapsing sinkhole stunt when Johnny was killed was Halloween 2021, and it was filled in some time after that.

Deadringer · 18/10/2024 16:11

Don't worry about Sam, he already has another job.
