Nearly Easter already! CORONATION STREET THREAD. **NO SPOILERS PLEASE.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Todd has got a new beau, and he looks like a Ken doll
And it turns out he's got a wife too
Things never go smoothly for Todd do they really?
What on earth is he going to do?

Julie's still suffering with cancer it seems,
and Kev is still ill with it - how sad
Now Debbie's very likely got dementia
Which is really very bad.

New guy Mick and his missus are loathsome
I hope they leave really soon
I want to just grab them and drop kick them hard
So they end up on the dark side of the moon

DeeDee has had Joels baby, but doesn't want her
And her brother's stepped up to be her dad
But I think she's wavering and getting a bit attached
If she gives her baby up she may be sad.

DeeDee's about to take action for the poor treatment she had
When she was in labour and about to give birth
I hope she gets justice and gets treated right
And gets compensated for what she is worth

Dorin is back, he's incredibly cute
And I have to say DeeDee's baby is too (edit by request)
I hope they don't turn into little shits
Like the children in Corrie tend to do!

Daisy and Jenny have proper fallen out
Over the pub and money and debts
I wonder who'll end up owning it and running it
I think we should take some bets!

I think that's most of what's going on! (Sorry if I've left owt out!)

Well there's Tracy, and then there's Carla.

Who did Tracy sleep with? I don’t remember her sleeping with a woman and I completely forgot about Carla. Carla should get back with Peter, Peter should come back

Paula Martin, Sophie Webster's slightly creepy older girlfriend.

I don’t remember her. I guess I’ll see her soon in Classic Corrie

She was Princess Paula, Sal's old school friend.

Nope, still don’t remember lol

Oh her. I vaguely remember her face. She was a lot older than Sophie

I do remember Paula. I don't recall her having a fling with Tracy though.

I'd forgotten about Tracy's fling with another woman. And yeah, that woman was waaaay too old for Sophie IMO. Big age gaps are quite common in same sex relationships though.

I have a question ....

TRIGGER WARNING: SUICIDE, SUFFERING, AND SELF HARM!!!

I have a question about Julie (taking her own life...) How did she manage to make sure she died just in those few minutes that Eileen was away getting coffees? The more I think about it, the more I think maybe she didn't take her own life/take an overdose.

Also, wasn't it painkillers she was meant to have OD'd on? That is a painful and unpleasant death over a few days, but Julie just slipped away in a couple of minutes. Even if it had been sleeping tablets, she would have taken what, an hour or two to die? I can't find out because when I google it, I get directed to suicide help pages..... ❤

Why is Eileen stressing over Julie's will and not telling Brian. Why does he need to know what her will said?

Also interesting point @SabreIsMyFave , about Julie timing her death so precisely. Can only assume that it fitted the storyline better .

That is an interesting point, one I’d never thought about. I agree with HurdyGurdy that it fitted the storyline better

I guess so, but it didn't add up IYSWIM. (For the reasons I mentioned.)

Oh also, I have no idea why Eileen is being so cagey about Julie's will/Eileen getting everything.

That's what I've been thinking as well. It doesn't make sense. Painkillers would have taken longer surely and been an unpleasant death

Because if she said that to Brian then Brian would’ve gone to the police again with a motive and the explanation of why Eileen’s painkillers are in Julie’s system

Ah ha, of course. Good point. Thank you.

Yes, exactly.

I was also thinking about this today, no way would a few co-codamol (as implied) instantly kill somebody.
An overdose of that type would be a slow and painful death over a few days / a week.

Mick can dish out the bants, but cannot take it back.

Liam is going to have a panic/asthma attack shut in that cupboard, isn't he. Then (hopefully) Gary will be unleashed and beat him to a pulp.

Is that builder's yard the same one that used to be Len Fairclough and Jerry Booth's, all those years ago. When Deirdre was their secretary

Well come on, this is Corrie. Here everyone dies immediately or is fixed immediately by a same day GP appointment or a bed in a private room at Weathy general!
You're thinking logically tut tut

I wish Debbie would just tell her family and Ronnie about her diagnosis

Are we to supposed to believe that’s the first time Lou and Kit have clapped eyes on each other ??

V professional Kit telling George and Eileen what was found on Julie’s autopsy in front of the whole pub.
