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

I wondered about Kit, but I don't think he is good enough for Todd either. A gay version of David would be good.

BirthdayRainbow · 07/10/2024 20:27

Bored with Billy, Swain and Betsy.

Can't believe Fizz terminated.

Can't believe Fizz terminated.

Shocked me too. Really thought she'd have the baby! Was their any point to this storyline?

It’s about time Swain was off the case. She should have been off the case the moment she knew Betsy was involved

JaneJeffer · 07/10/2024 20:47

That wine looks rank

EachandEveryone · 07/10/2024 20:50

I know looks so cheap.

Shellingbynight · 07/10/2024 21:39

Now Swain is off the case there is a chance it might actually get resolved. How she could say with a straight face she’s always professional….!

So the (otherwise pointless) Fizz abortion storyline seems to be the start of warfare between Hope and Ruby (long overdue). I'm watching Classic and Rosie and Sophie are behaving similarly.

The wine did look rank 😆

Still cannot work out Kit.

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · 07/10/2024 21:50

The wine looked very thin! Not a Malbec that's for sure !

AmusedMaker · 07/10/2024 22:35

Thanks for new thread!

EachandEveryone · 07/10/2024 22:48

Why did Swain run off?

BirthdayRainbow · 07/10/2024 22:54

She's got the feels from Carla. For her too.

HurdyGurdy19 · 08/10/2024 06:58

Brilliant first post summary - thank you.

I had completely forgotten about Todd and Billy being an item. Todd needs someone more lively than Billy, so I hope they don't get back together.

The abortion storyline seems utterly pointless, unless, as suggested by a PP, it's to start Hope and Ruby feuding. If I was Ruby, I'd be afraid. Very afraid 😱 . Hope is not a girl to be messed with.

WHERE IS BOBBY?

Carla and Swain - no way. Carla has never, as far as I can remember, shown any interest in women.

AmusedMaker · 08/10/2024 07:12

Yes, where is Bobby? wasn’t he living with Carla?
And where is Gail supposed to be all the time? She literally just pops up every couple of months.

And did Billy have a relationship with Sean at some point?

Billy was with Sean when he first came into it. They lived together at Eileen's and were in love for a while. Although Billy then fell out of love with Sean and broke his heart. He then got with Todd. I'm not sure if they broke up because Billy started to have feelings for Todd? I can't quite remember that bit.

AmusedMaker · 08/10/2024 07:38

Thank you Lulubellamozarella

Shellingbynight · 08/10/2024 08:58

@HurdyGurdy19 Ruby seems to have developed into a quite strong character recently, and she certainly knows Hope very well!

I liked the Gail and David scenes. The house won’t be sold of course, someone in that family has to own it at all times! It's a shame Gail has been so absent in the past few years.

I am not really on board with Carla/Swain, mainly because Swain is so devoid of personality, is never off screen (and is such a useless cop).

eggandonion · 08/10/2024 09:08

Did Audrey's house thing get sorted...didn't Steven take out a lifetime loan against it or something? Can Audrey sell Grasmere Drive and move in with David etc?
Now Nick and his family have vanished.

Deadringer · 08/10/2024 09:24

One thing is for sure, Audrey won't be welcoming that lot into her home, her house has always been off limits. I thought Hope would go ballistic about the abortion, especially after their little brother returned to Romania, but I agree with pp it seems that its a plot device for Hope and Ruby to hate each other, with lots of sad faced hand-wringing from Fizz, and sheepish looks from Tyrone.

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · 08/10/2024 09:38

I felt sure fizz would change her mind. It all happened rather quickly.

Newnametoday5 · 08/10/2024 09:51

I find it a bit cringey the way Gail shuffles around. I know she's an older lady but why have they made her look a little frail. Her mother doesn't walk like that. Yes I know in real life there's not much difference in their ages.

AmusedMaker · 08/10/2024 10:30

I’m surprised Fizz terminated the pregnancy, especially as this would have been their only child together. But I’m guessing the producers want to show the dilemma some people face in these situations ( limited space, funds etc )

EachandEveryone · 08/10/2024 11:00

Except they’ve never showed us how they have limited funds. Two good wages, all the childcare they need yet they never have two pennies to rub together. Same with gobby running back to work as they need the money I despair when we all know they would be entitled to UC. I feel like writing to whoever it is one writes to 😀

strugglingwithlife · 08/10/2024 11:05

Red wine is disgusting anyway 🤢
Carla drinks a lot,. didn't she have a drinking problem? And a transplant? I can't remember

Shellingbynight · 08/10/2024 11:12

The Fizz baby plot was all done and dusted in two episodes, it didn't show them struggling with the decision, they both agreed, bit sad, the end. So it seems to be yet another of those plots, like Dorin, that happen so that something else can happen. (If Dorin is never seen again - what was the point of that?) It makes it very hard to get invested in anything at all because it's all so choppy and disjointed.

Carla had a kidney transplant. It wouldn't stop her drinking alcohol in moderation, but Carla doesn't tend to do anything in moderation and her kidney is never mentioned.

BirthdayRainbow · 08/10/2024 11:22

The termination story line was embarrassingly rubbish.
