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.

Corey and his Dad seem to have put two and two together, realised that his blood stained clothes are with the Police and disappeared. I hope he gets his comeuppance. The actor who plays Corey is very convincing as a thug. He doesn't have to say anything. The shaved head, the body language and the scowl says it all.

I really like Jack, I realise he comes across a bit awkward
and stiff some times, but I wouldn't like him to disappear upstairs for a couple of years, only to re appear as a fully grown teen, with matinee looks!

Grannynannywanny Thu 04-Nov-21 12:32:32

he just looks so weather beaten like he’s a rough sleeper

I agree BlueBelle. I was just thinking last night that the homeless man Stu looks better groomed than kevin.

Namsnanny Thu 04-Nov-21 12:42:02

Yes I though exactly the same Grannynannywanny?

Franbern Thu 04-Nov-21 16:12:37

Think that Jack's acting is non-existent, he just repeats lines he has learned. I know the children have acting coaches, but they seem to have given up with this one. AND......where is his limp or had he magically grown back his leg???

Do think that the young actor who plays Corey should be recognised for some really tremendous acting. He is brilliant with really great suitable body language.

JaneJudge Thu 04-Nov-21 16:28:14

Kevin was an alcoholic in real life for years, so I guess some of his skin issues may be to do with that

BlueBelle Thu 04-Nov-21 19:19:52

I wish Jack would disappear upstairs namsnanny he doesn’t act! a kid in a school play would be better The other kids in Corrie are miles and miles better I can’t understand that he was the best they could find and yes where is his limp I thought he had a false leg fitted

I may be wrong here,maybe the law has changed,but with regards to Corey I thought you couldnt be charged twice for the same crime?

Double jeopardy, where a person cannot be tried twice for the same crime, was scrapped in England and Wales around 15 years ago. Corey's Dad obviously knows that as he has gone on the rub with his charming son in tow.

Sorry, run not rub.

If nothing else that's his promising football career up the Swannee.
Maybe the writers need to keep him up their sleeves in case of a boring patch later?

Aveline Fri 05-Nov-21 20:57:04

Well what a moment when Gary opened up that van at the Police Station to an audience of Sebs family and friends!

Namsnanny Sat 06-Nov-21 12:31:59

Gary prepared to use a hammer!?

Aveline he is a good baddie, so maybe your right and he might break out in time for the Christmas special.
Although I'm still keeping an eye on the Bailey storyline and Mum or/and Dad bumping off Grace and using one of the many holes to hide her, as our Christmas excitement!

BlueBelle yes it seems I'm out voted over Jack (Kyle), but if he does disappear down the corrie rabbit hole where most child actors 'morph' into newer versions of their character, and let's be fair, he is a the right age to be replaced.
I for one will miss him.

Was Liam the same boy last night? He looked a bit different, but perhaps he’s just grown up a bit.

BTW, what does Ronnie actually do? He seems to have hot shot friends and acquaintances all over the place, but never seems to do much apart from squiring Debbie and sitting in the Bistro, Rovers or Roy’s Rolls eating and drinking.

Aveline Sat 06-Nov-21 19:51:39

I think Liam is the same boy but a bit older.
Ronnie must spend most of his time at the gym to maintain his, 'I'm almost bursting out of my clothes' physique!

I asked my OH last night if it was a different child playing Liam.

I am useless with faces anyway, but even he wasn't sure!

Sarnia Wed 10-Nov-21 09:29:26

Am I the only one hoping Kelly gets some sort of punishment? In her trial she admitted starting it all by shouting abuse, assaulting Nina and not phoning an ambulance for Seb so I am hoping she gets something. I am surprised to find I am missing Todd.

Calendargirl Wed 10-Nov-21 10:26:49

I suppose she has been locked up for a few months, plus is persona non grata back in the street Sarnia. If it were RL, she should probably move away.

I’m afraid I don’t miss Todd, has he left?

Have we had Johnny’s funeral yet, has that happened behind the scenes or is that still to come?

Dev and his blasted new car! He was like a child at Christmas. His acting is awful.

Daniel is definitely the most attractive man on the street, no wonder Summer fancies him. But it will end in tears.

I don't think Todd has left. I've noticed many characters missing for some time whilst filming was going on during Covid restrictions. I am assuming he will be back and with a bang, knowing Todd. Sitting quietly in the undertaker's doesn't really suit him. I feel there is something bubbling away under the surface. No funeral yet for Johnny and I agree with you. Summer's growing infatuation with Daniel won't end well. Not if Daisy has anything to do with it. There appears to be a growing storyline surrounding Curtis. I don't think he is quite what he seems.

Namsnanny Wed 10-Nov-21 13:11:06

I've forgotten who Curtis isshock?

Calendargirl Wed 10-Nov-21 13:13:51

Curtis is Emma’s boyfriend (fiance) with a dicky heart Namsnanny

Namsnanny Wed 10-Nov-21 14:54:33

Oh yes, of course. Is steve about to give his hard earned (I havent seen him working lately, and he is always in debt so how does he have thousands to give?) Savings towards Curtis op?
I'm really getting cheeses off with how money comes and goes for Corrie characters. Brown envelopes stuffed through letter boxes ect.

BlueBelle Wed 10-Nov-21 15:25:16

I don’t think Daniel is the best looking in Corrie I think he comes third behind Imran the smooth and Ronnie big biceps

Grannynannywanny Wed 10-Nov-21 15:53:19

Is anyone beginning to have suspicions about Curtis? Is there something dodgy about him ?

Grannynannywanny Wed 10-Nov-21 16:16:31

Apologies Sarnia I managed to miss the last part of your post. I agree with you. There is something amiss. I’m wondering if he is as ill as he’s led everyone to believe.
