Cassie's walking around with her tail between her legs, as Ken rumbled her nasty little game. Tracey saw through her but few others did, and Cassie's attempts to fool Tracey were lame. Hope still wants to be friends with her nan, but no-one wants Cassie around. She wants some love and friendship and support, but there's really very little to be found.

David wants someone to kill him so his family will be looked after. He wants someone to hit him with a car, these storylines are getting dafter! Kevin's got cancer it appears to be spreading, which is really quite worrying and sad. Rosie and Sophie haven't made an appearance yet, are they not worried about their dad?

Carla had her brother Rob's kidney, he's in jail for murder, under guard, but the guard is his girlfriend, and not be trusted, so escaping from the hospital wasn't hard. Abi's still struggling after seeing Mason killed, but trying to pull herself together. Her portrait of Kevin was a sight to behold, Debbie thought she'd be laughing forever.

Carla and Swain are still loved up, and Eileen's sister Julie's shown her face. She says she's got cancer, how awful if she has it too. Seems it's turning up all over the place. Leanne and Toyah's story has quietened down a bit, and the institution's in the past, Daisy's telling Daniel he's the baby daddy but he's not, I wonder how long the lie will last.

Jenny's about to be kicked off the deeds, at the Rovers against her wishes. Daniel's bailing her and Daisy out, and wants to make Daisy his missus. Max got a chunk of time in jail for setting fire to his house. And Dylan's incarcerated for possessing a knife, but is keeping as quiet as a mouse.

The Baileys have dwindled, and DeeDee where is she? Ronnie's still about, and easy on the eyes is he! I've probably missed something important I expect, and I'm sorry if I've missed something out. It's hard to remember everything and everyone, and make sure you don't miss nowt!

Oh Theo looks like poor Robert who was shot and never had a funeral. He had Lego hair. Maybe he is a secret child of Robert and Tracy luv.

Yes! Then she can have his kidney 🎉

Theo is such a disappointment.😥

Re Eileen, I'm not sure why the actress losing weight would have any effect on the character? It's hard to remember when she turned into such a miserable moo because Eileen was off screen so long with Sue's illness and then the theatre stint. She has bucked up a bit now Julie is here though.

But in Corrie nowadays most characters now seem to be contractually obliged to be a miserable moo. Even if they start off cheerful they get buckets of shite chucked at them till they sink.

I always thought of her as a bit miserable, bitter and sour faced. Tbf I didn't see much difference when she was in I'm a sleb 🙈

Yeah I agree with this.

Good question @Shellingbynight regarding why would Sue losing weight (and trying to keep it off) make the character of Eileen grumpy, I do wonder if the lower mood/slightly melancholy vibe (that Sue Cleaver seems to have now,) has transferred from Sue to the character of Eileen? As @CellophaneFlower says, Sue seemed a bit miserable in I'm A Celebrity a couple of years ago... (She had lost some weight then through dieting - before she was ill.)

It's JMO and I could be chatting shit. 😆 As I said earlier, I'm just saying what I see. Eileen (as well as the actress Sue) just seems a bit less chirpy and happy since the weight loss. (Not saying everyone is like this, but some people are.) It's not just the weight loss, it's the constant ongoing battle of trying to keep the weight off. It changes some people.

I didn't see Sue on IAC.

Watching Eileen on Classic she is sparky and cheery although she's always been sarcastic and combustible. She was a lot livelier 20 years ago but then again so was I😆

I really don't like the Ken doll, and also agree he is married (to a woman.) And I agree that the scene(s) between him and Todd were weird and a bit cringe!

I want them to keep Julie too, and Debbie. Love them both. Eileen is as miserable as sin and I'll be glad when she's gone. I hate to say this, but she seems to have gone all miserable since she dropped loads of weight. I have known this happen to people before. Lose a ton of weight, and then are in a constant battle to not regain it, counting every calorie, and milligram of fat! And it makes them miserable.

Kevin does look grim, and 10 years older than his age, and it's weird to see a man who looks mid to late 60s with a child in his early teens/at school! Was he quite old when Jack was born, like late 40s or so?

I am glad DeeDee is going to take action against the hospital for the way they treated her.

Also annoyed at how they've made Jenny and Daisy enemies now. And I can't stand Daisy's mum!

Old Man Kev is also step dad to three year old Alfie.

SabreIsMyFave · 04/04/2025 23:08

I was wondering today, what happened to Trim Up North? David's hair salon? Just one of the things that have vanished in Corrie!

I think it closed after Covid.

Not sure what happened to the motorbike, table football and Weasel.

eggandonion · 04/04/2025 23:16

Wasn't Kelly their star apprentice? Where does Maria work, or is she a full time councillor who we rarely see.
Was she working there during Masons reign of terror, or back in Audrey's?

Oh yeah I forgot about Kelly. Being the star apprentice, when she had hardly had any proper training! That storyline fecked off quickly too!

Is it jus t me or is Lou a blond haired Shona.

Shellingbynight · 05/04/2025 08:25

Trim up North was sold by Audrey in 2023 when she had to rationalise her finances after Steven fraudulently remortgaged her house. There was a scene where she talked to David about it, she said he could return to work at Audrey's, and he and Maria had to fight it out for the manager's position (can't remember who won).

eggandonion · 05/04/2025 08:40

So she knows about the remortgage thing, I don't remember that. There's so much going on. I wonder who bought it and what it is now.
The New people look like Paul and Shona. I need to concentrate more.

CellophaneFlower · 05/04/2025 09:00

I do love the names of the Corrie shops. Trim up North was one of my faves ✂️

AmusedMaker · 05/04/2025 09:14

He might look old & knackered ( understandable with what he’s dealing with atm ) but I think Kevin is heading for an affair with one of his nurses.

Did Hope have cancer when she was very young? Or did I imagine it.

She did but only for a few weeks.

And Jack had a foot amputated although it does not seem to hinder him in any manner.

eggandonion · 05/04/2025 11:13

Yes Hope had cancer and then they had a special Christmas when she was better? Jack is annoying, he doesn't look like a bad boy.

stampin · 05/04/2025 11:24

I'm always aware that Jack is saying his lines.

That is ringing a bell now actually to be honest. Thanks for that. Smile
