Coronation Street ITV1 pace thread. We know whodunit but on it drags *** NO SPOILERS ***

[TellingBone]

Let the Joel storyline continue to bore us 😞

Oh that’s mean, wanting Ken unwell just so she’s his carer again. Why can’t she find another job? Maybe the kebab shop, help Chesney out

Yes I think Cassie was doubling up Ken's warfarin, so he would become ill and then need a carer again. Would you not taste warfarin in tea?

Cassie is looking very attractive now, a far cry from when she arrived.

I’ve no idea if you could taste it in tea but I think it’s a blood thinner so with what Cassie is doing, he’ll become very unwell. Poor Ken

Yes it's a blood thinner, he must be taking it because he had a stroke a while ago.

Cassie is morphing into Claire Sweeney. 😋

She's an evil cow though. Ken looks frail and it won't take much for him to ...... don't want to say it..... 🫤

Dr Gadass will have to visit, she will be busy with Ken and Deedee. Sarah has remembered that Harry exists.
I can't cope with Masons brothers, they need to die horrible deaths leaving Mason to be adopted by Sally and become a lovable rogue.

Some serious gaslighting from David there. Disappointing.

I totally missed the Cassie thing. Must have been distracted in my phone. They’ve done a good job at beautifying her, or unbeautifying her when she first came into it.

Poor old Ken

I liked Adams reference to Bread, calling Cassie 'Lilo Lil'... suspect a lot of corrie watchers won't get it..

Cassies obviously thinking if she makes Ken ill he won't get rid of her.. ugh.

Billy being super fucking pious at DeeDee, ugh.

David gaslighting Shona, so theres no digging himself out of that one now when Clayton tells her he came to see him and told him Shona considers him dead anyway. Ugh.

Total bloody shit show really, of course Tim's going to get set on fire or something by Masons brothers, or have another heart attack.

You only have to be a certain age to get the Lilo Lil reference. Not that big a deal. I used to love watching Bread on a Sunday night

So Lauren's 'defence' is that a jury won't convict Max. Never mind that he'd be held in jail for at least a year beforehand. (They are doing exactly the same on EastEnders with Sonia. Feeble.)

Cassie's line will be that Ken is too old and forgetful to do his meds correctly, although it's still her who is giving them to him (I suppose she'll deny it). Steve will be taken in, and it'll take Tracy returning to out her.

I did laugh at the Lilo Lil reference.

Nobody ever tastes tablets in drinks in soaps, or wonders why somebody stares at them intently whilst they drink.

I wish my son was a soap actor... no fooling him slipping the tiniest bit of medication in his drink (prescribed of course... he won't even take calpol 🙄).

Have no idea why David has dug that massive hole for himself when he could have just carried on playing dumb about the emails if need be. Went from nick seemingly talking him round about lying, to him just lying even more and putting it all on Shona 🤦‍♀️

It's very hard to hide tablets in food/drink because many of them taste unpleasant, but that is never an issue if you're trying to poison someone on TV!

I think David just wanted to shut it down because Shona kept asking questions. The massive hole is really when Clayton tells Shona that David visited, there's no getting out of that one!

Loved Sally’s boast about the hot tub, then Betsy’s put down, Sally’s face was a picture.
So we are seeing more of Sally and Tim, because Tim’s going to get attacked by the gruesome twosome brothers.
Just what we need, another police investigation brewing, with Kit, Kirky and Lisa that drags on for months.

Always liked David, but went too far gaslighting Shona. Sarah now a relationship guru, yeah right.
Indifferent about whether Dee Dee keeps the baby, at least it gave pathetic Billy five minutes of vicaring.

How long has Ken been on warfarin? Is it definitely warfarin? I've googled but it's all a bit vague and spoilery so abandoned that.

I thought you got at least weekly INR blood tests on warfarin. Mine were 2-3 times a week.

Cassie said to Ken "here's your warfarin". She gave him one tablet to take, and crushed another in his tea. He had a stroke a few years ago so it makes sense (nothing else about this storyline will make sense though😆)

Just what we need, another police investigation brewing, with Kit, Kirky and Lisa that drags on for months.

Good lord, they won't put Kirky on the case will they 😱😱😂

Only when you first go on it I think. Once stabilised blood tests would be less frequent unless the dosage changed.

Who was looking after Glory while the Baileys were in the Rovers?

Who else can predict Michael being all ridiculous and annoying when DeeDee announces her pregnancy and he can't believe she didn't tell him/her family - but of course she would tell Sarah...why did she tell Sarah? Did they have some sort of connection a while back? We don't often see them hanging out together so Sarah just popping over to see how she was doing just seemed like a bit of an odd scenario...

Deedee and Sarah were close a while back, when she found out about Sarah and Damon. Then obviously when Bethany got involved in the Joel stuff.

Dev can't afford to take anymore staff I don't think...or is Chesney the only one who works there? Did/does Bernie not work there? It's closed just now because of the health inspector's visit anyway.

Deedee works with Adam, Sarah might be married to Adam. This is a huge connection isn't it.
Nobody on the street is very reliable for relationship advice.
Who was minding Harry when Sarah was advising? Was he upstairs listening to tapes with Glory?

It's a shame Wendy Crozier isn't Lauren's foster carer. I like her and Ken could have won her round again!

I hope we don't have the usual prison scenes of Max being beaten up/bullied (it's done with every prisoner). I wonder if he'll bump into Damon or Nathan!

Did anyone watch the ITVX live special after Fridays episode? I caught up with it last night.

It's inevitable Max will be beaten up! David and Nick were talking about how young offenders is completely different from adult prison, and there were two scenes of large prisoners looming over Max last night. Then Lauren can have a fit of guilt and do some more sobbing.
