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 wanted fizz and ty to keep the baby 😞

EachandEveryone · 09/10/2024 20:27

I can’t remember this bloke.at all.

HaddyAbrams · 09/10/2024 20:31

Me neither. His face looks familiar, but that might just mean that I've seen the actor in something else.

HurdyGurdy19 · 09/10/2024 20:33

Just been saying the same to my friend. I said I'd have to wait until it comes around again on Classic Corrie, to prompt me 😅

MichaelAndEagle · 09/10/2024 20:45

Its John Thomson isn't it? He was in Cold Feet, if it is him.

SabreIsMyFave · 09/10/2024 20:46

What have I missed? How come Bethany is back home in the UK?

I thought she was stuck in Turkey because the family couldn't find the money for her medical fees. (And the hospital were holding her passport.)

EDIT! I am watching it a quarter of an hour behind. I have just seen that Gail got a loan for Bethany's medical fees! (I think I remember it from the other day now!)

As you were. Smile

It is Jesse. Dated Eileen. Cheated on her with her sister. Apparently met Gail when in Thailand.

suburburban · 09/10/2024 20:57

Why does Eileen care so much

Most of the cast have bed hopped with each other and no one seems bothered

I do remember him now. Eileen's face looked odd (when she was grimacing at Gail and Jesse.) Has she had some kind of face procedure I wonder... ?

I hardly recognised Eyelash.

Shellingbynight · 09/10/2024 21:04

It feels odd saying this, but I enjoyed that episode, especially the Gail storyline. I loved everyone's reaction - Audrey and David went straight to assuming Gail and Jessie was going to be a total car crash. And I liked the addition of the Eileen element, those two used to have cat fights and I wouldn't mind seeing that again for old times sake.

I remember Jessie the clown. I didn't particularly like him, he was an odd poorly formed character, but I think he could work this time round. It's great to see the whole Platt family working together again after Gail being sidelined so long.

Even Bethany was less annoying than usual.

Roryno · 09/10/2024 21:09

Did they put Bethany into a coma to fly her home? With sepsis?? Did I see that? I was airline crew - as if!!! I don’t think they even allowed stretchers onboard nowadays.

And yes Billy was with Sean originally. Nasty Todd stole him off him. Then I think they broke up, can’t remember why. Billy met Paul. Todd managed to split them up and get back with Billy for a little while, then something happened and Billy and Paul got back together.

I doubt it but she has been very unwell and lost a lot of weight.

FabulouslyFab · 09/10/2024 21:27

It should have been Martin! I was so looking forward to that storyline!

Shellingbynight · 09/10/2024 21:39

@Roryno we said the same about Bethany flying home with sepsis. It was Medivac, does that make a difference? Not that she looked very ill.

I am quite pleased Martin is not involved in Gail's storyline. I liked him originally but after he and Gail split up after he shagged the nurse I had quite enough of him.

BirthdayRainbow · 09/10/2024 23:55

It was going to be Martin and scenes were filmed and then he was let go and all scenes destroyed and rewritten.

WiddlinDiddlin · 10/10/2024 04:17

Ooh err, why was Martin (forgot his bloody name now) dropped... he must have done something pretty dire!

Flying home with active sepsis seems highly unlikely... and really, where ARE they all going to live if Gail flogs the house? I get that they needed to get Bethany back but I am not sure I believe that a hospital can hold someone hostage until a bill is paid as they were suggesting!

All very bonkers tonight and rather wooden in places, it didn't seem to flow very well at all.

JewelleryCat · 10/10/2024 06:16

Yes, I wish it was Martin too. I don’t remember this Jesse guy at all

HurdyGurdy19 · 10/10/2024 06:37

I read somewhere (might even have been on here) that Martin Platt was supposed to be involved in The Institute, but that Sean Wilson disagreed with the way it was written. Who knows?

He was supposed to have left Corrie first time after the Katie Harris relationship, but I'm watching Classic Corrie and he's still in it, some time after that storyline was resolved, so maybe that was incorrect.

I doubt we'll ever find out the real reason Jesse was written back in for Gail instead of Martin.

Yes he could fill in for Aggie at the hospital😀

Shellingbynight · 10/10/2024 08:02

@HurdyGurdy19 In Classic, Martin leaves a few months after Katy so he'll disappear soon.

JewelleryCat · 10/10/2024 08:09

suburburban · 10/10/2024 07:08

That would be a good idea. What happened to Aggie anyway, did the actress who played her leave?

Roryno · 10/10/2024 08:24

”Martin” used to live near us and had a reputation for being an awkward bugger, very full of himself.

Surely Sarah could have sold her posh flat (with the dreadful security that everyone seems to be able to get round). It would’ve been worth more than Gail’s house and Sarah could’ve downsized? Or is Gail wanting the money to swan off to Thailand?
