Countdown to Christmas 2025! CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Christmas is close, 🎄 we've had minus temperatures for a wee while, and the darker days and sunset by 4pm is with us.

Let Undead Becky continue to bore and annoy us! Let nasty Theo continue to infuriate us! Let the potential child grooming storylines shock us! Let Carl Chuckle Brother continue to shag anything with a pulse! (And hopefully dump Abi!) AND let's get ready for Christmaaaaaaaaaas!!!!!! 🎅❄🎄

Me either. He’s an elderly, unattractive slime-ball. I’m obviously missing something. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Fuck me, elderly, he's 57.

Elderly ??

Well he’s certainly not some young sex-god like he’s made out on here. The character of PB is 60. The actor was in All Creatures Great and Small recently and he looked like a tubby grandad.

😭😭😭

He’s a similar age to me and I don’t consider myself elderly😅

maybe my dm in her 80s

yes he was definitely a tubby granddad

From where I'm standing 57 is quite young 😄

I wouldn't call Peter elderly (im early 40s) but he doesn't do it for me at all! Although I had a real thing for Kevin Webster until he started looking so unwell.

Well he wasn't always 57 was he, he's aged along with the rest of us. Peter has always been complex and interesting although less so since the storylines started deteriorating a few years ago. Chris G plays him really well, his drunk acting fantastic. But IMO Peter's heyday was 10-15 years ago in storyline terms, and if he came back he'd get mediocre shite like the rest of the cast.

Crikey, if Peter’s ‘elderly’ then I’m decrepit at 62 😂

He would be pointless without Carla.

His last story line I can remember is that daft furore with the surgeon that dragged on forever and then he got done over

No spoilers, but I saw Kevin Webster in todays one and hardly recognized him. Has the actor been ill in real life?

Yes 80s the actor has had addiction problems.

I never really liked Peter with Carla (probably heresy!) I preferred him with Leanne.

Ahh ! That’s sad. He didn’t look well at all.

He is not elderly but hardly a healthy man, I wonder how he is getting on with his sailing?

Oh yes, wasn't it the surgeon who did his liver transplant? I can't recall the whys and wherefores.

I quite liked Peter. He’s a good actor and I’d like to see him return, but not to get back with Carla but with Leanne.

Talking of Leanne. What happened with all the institute stuff & the weird leader?

Talking of Leanne. What happened with all the institute stuff & the weird leader?

Forgotten, said à la Billy Connolly's "Toboggan".

Leanne turned against the institute when she found out they had conned Amy

Sorry, 57 is elderly?! 😂 LMFAO!!! Some may not get the love for Peter, but some of us do. (And I guess there's nothing else to have a go at, so his age is the only thing!)

57 is elderly though........???!😆 😂

Anyway, shoving that aside, Lisa pissed me off tonight, whining about Carla and how she wants her back blah blah blah, and weeping around the flat. She told her that it was over! I mean I can sort of understand it, as Carla left and said to Lisa that it was over (and she said it several times despite Lisa begging..) But then when Carla came back and said 'let's try again' Lisa said 'no.' And now Lisa wants her back again. Pretty childish to-ing and fro-ing!

The only interesting thing tonight was the last five mins - a whiff of drunken Theo leaving the bistro (blink and you missed it ) .. then the panning around the empty flat .. all smashed up . At least Mondays episode should be good .

Weeeellll…. On facebook ( so must be true !!! 🤣) several peeps were saying Todd was tied to the ceiling ? 😳😳😳

On another thread on here someone said a 29yo was middle aged so 57 must be nearly pushing up daisies for some.

It was more that he was a shit father, son and partner. Plus, he was seedy with women in his younger years; I’m sure I remember him cornering a woman (Liz?) in the Rovers.
And for the love of GOD, never stopped with his bloody moaning.

I didn’t even notice Theo last night

was hearty sick of snivelling Lisa
