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

As always, Coronation Street is issue led instead of character led. I agree about the poor choice of bringing this Jessie character in for Gail’s exit storyline, Martin would have been perfect.

FeltCarrot · 11/10/2024 12:53

Gail managed to get from Bethany’s hospital bed back home in the time that Eileen had clocked Jesse on the street. She must walk really fast!

AmusedMaker · 11/10/2024 12:58

I have no idea who Jessie is so this storyline will mean nothing to me.
Agree it would have been much better if Martin had made a return.

Shellingbynight · 11/10/2024 13:26

Yes Martin was the obvious choice and the producers obviously agree as it was Martin they chose. But it was not to be, for whatever reason, so they had to find someonelse fast.

NCTDN · 11/10/2024 20:35

Bethany's chest has reappeared!

NCTDN · 11/10/2024 20:37

Maybe fizz and Tyrone will have to redecorate eventually!

MichaelAndEagle · 11/10/2024 21:47

Gail giving me major cringe tonight!
Fizz is far too soft on Hawp, but I have a feeling Tyrone's outburst will have done more harm than good. Can't blame him though!

suburburban · 11/10/2024 22:11

At least Ruby was wearing something other than her school uniform.

Yes Fizz is so weak

AmusedMaker · 11/10/2024 22:12

Really minor point - but I hate the way Shona sits on the work tops. Very unhygienic.

Shellingbynight · 11/10/2024 22:13

I love the Gail storyline. It is proper old school character driven Corrie with great collaborations from all the Platts (especially David). As it's Jessie rather than Martin they can harp on about the terrible choice she's making harking back to Hillman/Lewis/Joe. And we saw David The Dog for the first time in ages. I think David's line about Gail's drawing of the dog was an ad lib, it didn't look like Nick was expecting it.

Kit might be crooked but at least he sits at his desk and gets on with his job, rather than swanning around cafes and looking pained. He asked Swain if she knew something, were her 'thoughtful/distracted' looks the other week meant to indicate she does?

Fizz is hopelessly soft with Hope the firestarter.

Good comedy direction tonight.

Loved when Gail was simpering away with Jesse on the settee , ..and the camera panned to David ,Sarah and Shona , just staring at her with a weird look on their faces 🤣.

Lovely interaction as always with David (and David the dog !) and Nick .

Why have they suddenly brought David the dog back in 🤔🤔🙄🙄..

Usually only means one thing 😞

I thought the same!

helgel · 12/10/2024 08:40

I'd love to be able to hop onto a worktop occasionally, these days I'd need the help of a sturdy stepladder.

eggandonion · 12/10/2024 08:47

The Platt house looks lived in. Unlike the horror houses of Chesney and Tyrone. But the Platt income can't be any higher, and they aren't skint.

PaininthePreferbial · 12/10/2024 12:22

That was such a good scene with David and Nick and the drawing of the dog. I too wondered if it was ad libbed, it was great.

Anonym00se · 12/10/2024 12:43

Are Mrs Crawshaw and Dr Gaddas the same person with a quick wig change?

AmusedMaker · 12/10/2024 12:44

😂 I thought that too!

eggandonion · 12/10/2024 12:58

The professional ladies need a lunch club.

suburburban · 12/10/2024 13:12

Yes

Would she really have time to visit

suburburban · 12/10/2024 13:13

Would a Head do this.?

Shellingbynight · 12/10/2024 13:29

I thought it was very unlikely a head teacher would visit the house. Surely she could call them in to school, but I guess they no longer have a 'school' set. Budget cuts.

It really does seem that way!

Yes

They're getting mileage out of the police station insteadSmile

And was Dr Gaddas in the hospital with Bethany?

Anonym00se · 12/10/2024 14:04

Roryno · 12/10/2024 13:56

And was Dr Gaddas in the hospital with Bethany?

I thought that too but I think the hospital Doc was younger than Dr G. The casting dept definitely favours a very particular patronising, middle-aged, well-spoken ‘type’ to represent their professional women.
