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

That was strange at the end....that isn't her last episode is it??

Jesse looked annoyed when she asked him to marry her...also Martin Platt was supposed to return and had filmed scenes what happened that he was dropped?

He would have been far better....this isn't a credible story line and cobbled together...shame as Gail been in soap so long...

bizzey · 28/10/2024 12:26

I wonder how much Gail 's travel insurance is going to be now ?££££ 💷💷💷 ! !

Shellingbynight · 28/10/2024 13:24

They have mentioned Thailand so many times I think it's inevitable they will go back there! It was a poorly plotted episode, possibly one with some last minute re-shooting due to Sean's disappearance.

I agree Jessie is a meh character, he is just a means to an end unfortunately. I used to really like Martin, he and Gail were great together for years. But during the Rebecca affair the character went downhill, and although the Katie storyline was very well put together it was crash and burn for everyone involved.

good point @bizzey doubt she'd even get insurance...it is all nonsense the heart attack came out of nowhere ...poor!

I thought exactly the same! Is it really that easy to set up home in Thailand?

Shellingbynight · 28/10/2024 14:37

Corrie doesn't worry about little details like that! Want to move abroad or buy a house at the drop of a hat - no worries.

MoonWoman69 · 28/10/2024 15:58

I agree the Jesse story line is ridiculous! They are so mismatched for a start! And you don't suddenly decide you're going to relocate to Thailand! She must have been considering that anyway, so how was she going to fund it? Sell the house anyway from under David and Shona? She seems to be able to do an awful lot on a state pension!
As for the heart monitor line/beep at the end of the episode, I saw that as a warning that she might not make it, did anyone else, or was that just me? It could have been connected to the BHF, but they did something similar on another programme years ago, which lead to a dramatic story line.

Lulubellamozarella · 28/10/2024 16:18

Apparently the producers promised a happy end for Gail so I guess their plan was for her to set off into the sunset with Martin so when that went tits up they had to rewrite it. As much as I love John Thompson I just don't see him and Gail together. They just don't go and there is just no chemistry or anything between them at all. So its all become a little unbelievable and a bit daft.

This may be an unpopular opinion but a character like Gail, who has been on the show for decades, when she finally leaves she should have a proper dramatic exit. One no-one will forget (think Kylie) Maybe they should have killed her off? 😬This way no one will even remember how she leaves or probably even care.

DeeDeesfabulouswardrobe · 28/10/2024 16:38

Agreed @Lulubellamozarella what a wet way to end Gail’s time on the street, I honestly would have preferred some outlandish storyline such as Richard and his briefcase returning from his watery grave to reek his dastardly revenge.

DeeDeesfabulouswardrobe · 28/10/2024 16:39

With Pheelan as back up.

Shellingbynight · 28/10/2024 16:46

The only type of dramatic exit the older characters have tends to be dropping dead of heart problems like Fred. Otherwise the actor becomes ill or dies and their exit is off screen like Blanche.

I like the fact Gail gets a happy ending but it is being executed badly, too rushed with no build up. She has hardly been on screen this year and then she's suddenly having heart surgery and getting married.

DeeDeesfabulouswardrobe · 28/10/2024 16:47

In fact what we could have had is Gail and Eileen being kidnapped by the dastardly pair and locked in the cellar of Pheelan’s old house, we could of then had an hour long two handed episode of Gail and Eileen reminiscing, rowing and eventually coming to an understanding of their relationship and getting themselves free from the cellar, the pair of them could then decide Richard and Pat aren’t so bad after all and they could all run off together to run an air B&B in the Lakes, specialising in murder mystery weekends….. 🤔

Mike Baldwin slipped away with Ken chatting to him.
God knows what obituaries are planned for Rita Audrey and Ken.

AmusedMaker · 28/10/2024 17:51

I think Ken should happily slip away whilst having a night of passion with Cassie.

Shellingbynight · 28/10/2024 18:08

😱I will now have to bleach my brain!

eggandonion · 28/10/2024 18:08

I don't know about passion..drinking good port and listening to that there Portuguese music.

AmusedMaker · 28/10/2024 18:10

😄

HurdyGurdy19 · 28/10/2024 19:41

Oh god, I've just had an awful thought. They're not going to have one of those deathbed weddings just before Gail slips away? 😨

bizzey · 28/10/2024 20:02

I am having a rare live episode with you all tonight!😜

bizzey · 28/10/2024 20:05

God!.. Jesse is so rude to Audrey 😲

bizzey · 28/10/2024 20:05

That is not the way to win around the family.

So Mike was officially bored to death then.🤣

MoonWoman69 · 28/10/2024 20:10

Aye up, there's Swain in't pub again! Don't her superiors ever question where she is all the time?! Or aren't there any?!

BirthdayRainbow · 28/10/2024 20:11

Who was that??

HurdyGurdy19 · 28/10/2024 20:13

Who was that reflected in the wing mirror? I couldn't see properly.

Or are they going to have it be a random person that murdered Joel, after all the significant clues given so far 🙄
