January flew by in the blink of an eye
Leanne and Steve are getting close
Cassie is drugging Ken day after day
Dose after dose after dose

Abi witnessed Mason's very sad death
She's struggling to keep it together
Carla and Swain are still an item
I wonder if they'll last forever

Bethany and Daisy are always at war
Over Daniel I know what a surprise
Gemma and Chesney are off on a trip
And Nick and Toyah are making us roll our eyes

Kevin may have cancer that's all that he needs
But Tim and Sally seem sound
Amy seems troubled I hope she's OK
And with Leanne and Tracey, mischief is abound

David and Shona are always on their toes
Scared of Harvey's heavies coming at them
Eva has left, will a few more will leave soon?
Will things be quite different by the next full moon?

All the old regulars don't appear much these days
Or any funny storylines or good feeling
It's just like The Bill with all convicts and thugs
And crime and violence that just leaves us reeling

Daisy is pregnant but who's the daddy
She doesn't seem to want to know
I wonder if we'll ever know or she'll keep it a secret
Now that she's decided she is going to keep it!

DeeDee's still pregnant I think but she's gone quiet
Lauren's been cleared of her 'crime.'
Debbie's still sassy, and Ronnie's still sexy
And Kit is in Corrie all the time!

!

Harvey <our home grown godfather> has no place in a soap about a small cobbled back street, which is apparently the crime capital of Britain theses days. I think probably more women watch corrie than men, and I think that most of those women watch it in spite of the crime, not because of it.

Exactly this. 'Gangsters' like Harvey belong in The Bill, or even Eastenders.

Eastenders was always the more gritty soap, and Corrie was the 'light hearted' one. Why have they turned Corrie into a crime drama?! Confused

There have been a few funny moments I suppose like between Kevin and Tim, and Sally calling the nurse who made it hard for her to get in to see Kevin 'Nurse Ratchet.' 😆

More of this please Corrie, and less death and gangsters!!!

Oddly enough EastEnders got over itself a while ago in terms of gangsters, there is far less crime in Walford than Weatherfield!

David's mate is not a very good gangster so you can guarantee that if he runs over anyone it'll be David the Dog, or Brian.

If and it's a big if David's plan goes ahead it would (in normal families) mean that his mother (remember Gail? 🙄) would be informed and have to rush back and deal with the tragedy. We know Gail is not coming back.

I doubt very much David's plan is happening. So what's next in the oh so realistic everyday life of a little cobbled street community 🫤🤪

Oh yeah, Gail sneaked off rather unceremoniously didn't she?! 🙄 Timid, weakly spoken little Gail - who they turned into a pathetic and wimpy woman, presenting as elderly and feeble - in her early to mid 60s! Hmm

And yeah, I doubt Corrie will ever get rid of David!

Kill Harvey and his horrible supporters, sort out Nicks love triangle, get Cassie a personality transplant, send Lisa away on secondment along with Betsy, send Dylan and Max to prisons far away. And get The Chesneys a new house and money.
Anything else?
I will keep Carla and Jenny, the Barlows, Sally and co.

I haven't seen Eastenders for many years (probably mid-late noughties I think.) Last storyline I remember was Max and Stacey having an affair, and everyone finding out on Christmas day.

Oh it's definitely not happening but I'm very intrigued how catastrophically wrong it will actually go.

Perhaps Andy will crash into Harvey's ambulance whilst he's being blue lighted with his ingrowing toenail 😂

Stacey's had his brother as well since then... and her daughter's had a baby with his son 😂

Shellingbynight · 05/03/2025 10:26

😆@CellophaneFlower If only Corrie was as amusing as this thread!

@SabreIsMyFave Stacey is still there causing havoc, she's just been responsible for the death of her (allegedly) one true love, Martin.

Oh was it Stacey who was responsible for Martin's death?! Shock I know he died (as it was all over the news,) but I didn't know why/whodunnit!

'Frankeh' is the name du jour with scriptwriters. There's one in Emmerdale and one in Hollyoaks!!

I missed the new thread last time and thought that evening's corrie (which I hadn't watched) had been particularly uneventful... or the footy had been on 😂

I started watching Enders again a couple of years ago after a break of about 5 years. It wlwas slightly confusing because the characters were pretty much all the same, but were all married/engaged to/shagging someone else.

I gave up again after a couple of weeks when I worked out how to use the Virgin box and access Netflix!

Technically it was Cindy's fault he died. After almost shooting Ian (you'll be forgiven for thinking this is classic eastenders from the 90s) she tried to push him in front of a car being driven by Sonia's boyfriend (who murdered his wife who was in a coma and kept Bianca locked in a garage for months) and he swerved and drove into a stack of gas cannisters that blew up the Vic. Then Sonia gave birth to his baby in the rubble of the Vic and a bath fell on his head and he died 🤣🤣🤣

Anonym00se · 05/03/2025 20:19

Jesus kill him already. This is awful.

Dd you see Daisy throw those bags down? 🤦‍♀️
