Freda and the implants for Aled. Now she has kidnapped the little chap to stop the operation. She comes over as the most impossibly selfish woman and I have no sympathy for her. One storyline that has disappointed.

I have reached the point of now fast forwarding any scenes regarding this very silly story of Emma and Faye and Craig. Whole thing is so ridiculous and I cannot believe they are continuing to drag it out.

The scene last night of Craig visiting the old man’s flat with a tool bag and a blaring video showing him how to open the plumbing was beyond ridiculous. No doubt it’s going to roll on now and the grandson will turn up in the street to see Emma. He seemed intrigued by her story of how she knew Ted. I’m finding this the most annoying storyline and hope it ends soon.

I agree with you. One of the silliest storylines that Corrie has had. Mind you when Beth gets wind of Craig leaving the Police she will not be leaving any stone unturned until she finds out the real reason. Faye and Emma had better make themselves scarce.

Good question. There’s been no sign of him in that flat since Craig moved in. They should have implicated him as well and taken him along to undo the u-bend for Craig.

As a matter of interest where does Tyrone live? Is he still in that flat with Emma, Fay and Craig? If so it must be a lot bigger than it looks.

Whoops I thought Thursday was Friday
Emma, Fay, Craig, old man, ridiculous story ?

Calendargirl Fri 28-Jan-22 19:49:27

Why is Emma so stupid? Wittering on about going to the funeral, no wonder Faye has no patience with her.

As for PC Craig, blabbing away in the cafe about the deceased old man and the e fit, words fail me.

BlueBelle Thu 27-Jan-22 19:19:59

Why don’t we get it on a Friday night now or

Rosina Thu 27-Jan-22 19:06:35

Yes - Evelyn was giving Hope a certain look last night which spoke volumes. I am always so impressed when an actor can convey so much with a glance!

Sarnia Thu 27-Jan-22 08:14:05

Bernie is a rough diamond but I hope the truth comes out to show she didn't have anything to do with Joseph's disappearance. Hope is a very accomplished little liar. Butter wouldn't melt but Evelyn is on to her, I think.

BlueBelle Wed 26-Jan-22 20:01:38

Well the Jenny fiasco tonight was hilarious

I don't think £80 a week will go far towards buying nappies and milk for four babies, never mind a boy of Joseph's age. Chesney will be on minimum wage, so they will be bumping along on very little money. I think the point of the storyline is to show that the pressures on children to have things like iPads and 'acceptable' trainers makes life very difficult for parents without spare cash.

I agree about the daftness of the Faye and Emma story, and I'm pleased that they showed Craig getting into trouble for running fingerprint checks to settle a bet - IRL he'd probably have been sacked.

How realistic is the Daniel story? The headmistress seems spectacularly inept, but I suppose the upskirting story shows how it is so often women and girls who are expected to make changes to accommodate badly behaved boys and men. They have a few younger generation cast members now, and if they are to be relevant they are going to have to cover stories like this, and the sexting one involving Asha a while ago. I wonder if Summer will get to go to Oxford, and whether Amy will go to university. When Ken was a young man he was portrayed as growing apart from his family because of his education, and I wonder if the scriptwriters will nod to that with Amy.

As for Tim and Sally grin. I knew that Sally's widdling would come back to bite her on the bum (pun intended), and I am in awe of Tim's doctors for all the reasons already mentioned. I do think that S&T make a good couple though. Tim's down to earth attitude is the perfect foil to Sally's pretentious behaviour.

Ha ha quite a few annoy me at the moment but I still always watch it!! {grin}

sodapop Tue 25-Jan-22 12:35:05

And Emma on mine love0c

love0c Tue 25-Jan-22 09:12:54

Tim has been getting on my nerves lately!

Franbern Tue 25-Jan-22 09:09:59

The Faye/Emma story is so silly. All they ever needed to have done, was to phone emergency services when they found Ted dead in his flat - and say that he had fallen over when they were driving past that day and they helped and accompanied him back home.

No time on ICU for Tim. What a great hospital - but we know that, after all it is still less than a week since his GP sent him for the original assessment!!! Is he still a part-owner of the taxi company? I am confused as to where Sally and he get their money. Glad the school thing all worked out well. Amy is proving to be an excellent character and I can see some great times in the future for her and the young actress portraying her.

Chesney and (?) should be in receipt of over eighty pounds a week in Family allowance. He also works, so - yes, they may be hard up, but should not be in such desperate straights as they are shown.

Sarnia Tue 25-Jan-22 08:58:35

I am waiting for Faye, Emma and Bernie to be found out. All of them are walking a tight line.

Aveline Mon 24-Jan-22 22:18:38

They did look lovely though, wee cuties. Both sort of looked like Ches and Gemma.

NotTooOld Mon 24-Jan-22 21:41:45

Yes, two quads seen tonight and one on Friday, I think. Will we ever get to see the full set?
Leo is after Jenny's money, I reckon.
What's Lydia after?

Kandinsky Mon 24-Jan-22 21:10:39

Her money most likely.

lemsip Mon 24-Jan-22 20:49:42

what's jenny's young fellow up I wonder?

Namsnanny Mon 24-Jan-22 20:41:50

and strong enough to read a paper!

lemsip Mon 24-Jan-22 20:36:00

I thought that they must be looking on here.

Tim back on the ward already, a miracle?

Calendargirl Mon 24-Jan-22 19:47:32

Have the producers of Corrie actually been reading GN?

Not one, but two of the quads have been seen downstairs, not incarcerated in their bedrooms.

Two down, two to go!

I’m finding Craig and the mystery crutch story the most annoying yet. That entire storyline is beyond silly.
