Corrie in my opinion are making a real mess of their Corona take in the series
There is just no continuity at all, sometimes no one is wearing a mask or some are and some arent the ones that do wear then often seem to wear them in the street and take them off when they go in the shop!!! They have the masks that are on hanging from an ear or under a nose
The restaurants are opened for seated customers the pub is open
There’s no real sign of social distancing
Its really quite silly and would in my opinion have been better if they had ignored it altogether

Calandergirl I quite like Ronnie too hes certainly easier on the eye than greasy Johnny
Eddie particularly is an awful actor bless him about the most unbelievable character in the whole series in my opinion Devs bad too nearly as bad
Maureen Lipman is fantastic
It’s all total cxxx but we still keep watching ???

FGS.

What time is Corrie supposed to be on tonight?

I thought it was 8, then 8.30, it’s now 8.35 and it’s still Emmerdale!!,,

I know I can watch it in ITV Hub, but I want to watch it properly!

Damn football!

I still think Gail is dreadful, specially when trying to be comical, utterly cringeworthy

Why isn’t ITV Hub watching it “properly” ? We watched all the episodes earlier in the week.

BlueBelle Sat 03-Jul-21 07:13:03

Well I understand calendergirl watching it ‘properly’ is not seeing it all in one go it’s seeing it on the nights you expect to see it on
I don’t want to watch it in one go vegansrock I just look forward to a bit of light relief three times a week and if it’s going to be changed at least stick to what you say it will be changed too
There should be a dedicated sports channel

Thank you for understanding what I mean BlueBelle!

As for vegansrock watching it all earlier in the week, well, good for you, but that really isn’t the point I was making.

?⚽️? aargh!!!

Bluebelle you could still watch it in three instalments !!!

BlueBelle Sat 03-Jul-21 19:45:47

Well I ll bump this up just to confuse things as there’s another Corrie thread up there now ???

Big yikes. We're on holiday just now and it looks like 'Gail' is staying in the same hotel as us. It's so confusing suddenly catching sight of her. We're pretty sure it's her (after lots of covert staring and casual walk pasts). It's so strange to see a familiar figure from our sitting room TV suddenly in the flesh. It feels so rude not to talk to her.

BlueBelle Sun 04-Jul-21 07:57:43

Haha it’s not really a face you could miss unless she has a double
Say hello and see what happens but do report back I mean she should be in her hospital bed still resting ???

Aveline Sun 04-Jul-21 08:01:12

I've got three episodes recorded do am not up to speed on the latest. Oh dear!

Maggiemaybe Sun 04-Jul-21 08:29:47

She did say she needed to get away to recharge her batteries (or break her circuit, or something….). smile

Franbern Sun 04-Jul-21 08:32:47

Aveline - have your tried yourrecordings of those episodes? I always record Corrie and then watch it when I have time in the afternoon. Settled down yesterday to watch a couple of episodes - and found that, due to last minute and unannounced time changes, did not have any Corrie.

Maggiemaybe Sun 04-Jul-21 08:36:53

I have Corrie recording on series link. For some unknown reason the most recent episode didn’t record from ITV on Friday, but it did record from ITV3 yesterday. Very strange. confused

sodapop Sun 04-Jul-21 08:42:03

That's annoying Franbern they put on repeats at lunchtime but not sure which channel

Aveline Sun 04-Jul-21 08:54:32

My system does seem to have it all recorded. I'm looking forward to catching up. Just off to spy on 'Gail' at breakfast.

vegansrock Sun 04-Jul-21 08:58:43

Gail moaning about her whole life being a mother - forgetting the five(?) husbands and umpteen jobs. Is she about to do a Shirley Valentine? Here’s hoping.

Calendargirl Wed 07-Jul-21 09:25:04

Am I the only one to be concerned that Gail, only just out of hospital after a heart attack, is zipping off to Thailand, alone, while the world is still in a global pandemic?

Has she got her medication sorted? Is her travel insurance willing to cover someone fresh from heart trouble? Is she even allowed to leave the country?

The mind boggles.

Grannynannywanny Wed 07-Jul-21 09:39:06

I’ve been thoroughly confused with Corrie in recent days. I thought I’d seen all episodes last week but clearly I must have missed one or I’m suffering from amnesia.

Gail packed her bags and set off for Thailand last night. Her son mentioned it would be beneficial after her heart attack. Did she have a heart attack and fully recover then plan a trip to Thailand all during the episode I missed??

Grannynannywanny Wed 07-Jul-21 09:40:53

Calendargirl crossed posts!
I’m glad I’m not alone ?

JaneJudge Wed 07-Jul-21 09:46:35

I don't think she had a heart attack, it was an anxiety attack? but all the family think she has had a heart attack apart from her Mother?

*I missed last nights episode btw

Grannynannywanny Wed 07-Jul-21 09:58:55

Not surprised she’s suffering from anxiety JaneJudge with all the never ending drama in her family circle!

JaneJudge Wed 07-Jul-21 10:29:35

I know! No one seems to marry a man who develops of love of gardening in his 50s and starts being fussy about food. They all marry murderers grin

JenniferEccles Wed 07-Jul-21 10:32:38

Would you be willing to say where you are staying Aveline ?
I have seen ‘Ken Barlow’ a couple of times in London.
I didn’t speak to him but I seemed to be the only person who recognised him!

An ex rugby player used to live near us and I spotted him a few times in Waitrose. He was left alone by the very polite customers!

Sarnia Wed 07-Jul-21 10:35:27

I hope Thailand goes into a prolonged lockdown as soon as Gail arrives. A more interesting storyline is, are Todd's chickens coming home to roost?
