the way she can't talk in a normal voice now and has to whisper all the time really annoys me, I love corrie and she's ruining it

Her surname is really Wigglesworth?????

it gets better!

Seriously laughing at the mushroom cut in half description....

I sold wrapping paper and a pen once to Audrey......(very nice and normal)

RebeccaRabbit · 17/03/2010 11:54

She swallows rather loudly, too.

MaryAnnSingleton · 17/03/2010 14:55

crikey - she is 59 !!

Bucharest · 17/03/2010 16:09

...and looks every day of it......
Is she still married to Thomas Tank's voice?

MaryAnnSingleton · 17/03/2010 16:09

it says on Wiki that she's in a relationship with Simon Hopkinson,who is a chef

MaryAnnSingleton · 17/03/2010 16:12

here they are

Im sure she is very nice in real life. I hate her in the soap though and, nick, whats he up to? he makes my skin crawl. I wonder if it is the same actress playing Tracey? shes brill!! Looking forward to Norris getting kidnapped!

I've never understood how they all fit in Gail's house. Especially when Sarah-Lou and Bethany were there. How many bedrooms can there possibly be above a downstairs which is barely larger than a two-seater sofa?

Actually I think that sofa annoys me almost as much as Gail does.

thelunar66 · 18/03/2010 13:48

Where is the bathroom? It must be a two-bedroom house only surely? Then you've got the airing cupboard.. where is that?

I seem to remember back in the days when David was evil, Gail went into his bedroom to look at his computer and it was a large room!

I can see I'm thinking about this too deeply

spenthen · 18/03/2010 14:32

No, lunar, you're not, it's really really important!

Been bothering me for years.

God, the bathroom, I've never even thought about there having to be a bathroom. Now my head hurts.

MaryAnnSingleton · 18/03/2010 15:17

it's always like that in soaps - look at Pat's house with Bianca and co stuffed in it and the Slater house !

SearchingForMyInnerJoan · 18/03/2010 17:29

The Websters have a two seater sofa as well.
Two teenage girls and a two seater sofa?
How does that work out ?

Does all the furniture come from Harveys?

I thought Simon Hopkinson was gay?

YES, we were saying Cluedo piece as well

I served her once in a restuarant and nearly hit her in the head with the plate. And she was very giggly and smiley and nice to me so I have a soft spot for her. Doesn't excuse teh voice though, oh no.

catinthehat2 · 18/03/2010 17:48

Thank you so so much for this thread.

I always thought it was just me.

thelunar66 · 18/03/2010 20:06

The one that gets me is Eileen's house... sometimes she has as many as 4 lodgers. Am sure it's a 2-up-2-down configuration because it's like the first house me and DH bought. The bathroom in Eileen's should, by rights, be out back, off the kitchen. If she has converted a bedroom to a bathroom, then she must only have one bedroom. Unless, of course, she has a loft conversion.

No, they can partition a bedroom to get a bathroom in upstairs. Or maybe do a bulkhead one if stairs in middle of house (overthinking also)

thelunar66 · 18/03/2010 20:17

Stairs definitely not in middle of house. They run up from the front door.

kittya · 19/03/2010 23:57

I didnt feel sorry for her tonight, I did Kelly though

thelunar66 · 20/03/2010 00:01

Don't feel sorry for Kelly... she is one daft bint! And someone needs to tell her that Nick is gay FFS does she not read Popbitch!

MrsDinky · 22/03/2010 12:08

And Ken's house. At one time they had Ken and Deirdre, Blanche, Tracey and Amy and Peter all living there, plus the dog. Gail's house has a room above the garage I think.

Lulumaam · 22/03/2010 12:12

why is gail going to prison?

thelunar66 · 23/03/2010 09:05

Gail is going to prison for murdering Joe (the latest hapless husband). Of course she didn't do it.

Maggy59 · 26/04/2015 18:34

I don't remember Gail talking like that a few years ago- does she really have a bad throat or is it her way of trying to sound young - by imitating a young girl? It's soooo annoying!! ????
