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.

Thanks Grannynannywanny.

I still don't know who was dressed as the ghost at the end of Wednesday's episode. I think Ray Crosby is under that costume. He organised the sinkhole in David's garden when he was planning to buy up the houses in Coronation Street for one of his dodgy schemes, so perhaps he has come back to see the residents' get their just desserts.

Thanks. Mmmmm. The 'plot?' thickens

Who is Natasha please?

She’s young Sam’s mum and Nick’s ex girlfriend.

Kim19 Sat 23-Oct-21 09:10:46

Who is Natasha please?

Grannynannywanny Fri 22-Oct-21 23:53:29

Yes maddyone it was Natasha. She was dressed in the same Halloween outfit as Leeanne.

maddyone Fri 22-Oct-21 23:23:05

Was the woman who was shot Natasha then? I couldn’t work out who it was.

Great minds think alike ?

I said to DH 'I think the writers have watched Titanic too many times'!

All that was missing from Johnny and Jenny’s final scene was the Titanic movie theme tune.

My whatsapp message to my friend :-

"do you think they took inspiration from Kate and Leo in titanic"

followed by:-
"jenny rocking the Little Mermaid look with that flaming red hair billowing around in the murky waters"

I think it has been (unintentionally) the funniest week on Corrie since the days of John Stape.

mystique

Namsnanny Fri 22-Oct-21 21:18:51

vegansrock I don't know my own, or any of my relatives, but thats the mystic of Corrie.

Namsnanny Fri 22-Oct-21 21:17:05

Ooh I wish I'd have thought of that Grannynannywanny

'Near far where ever you are.......'

When you first mentioned the Titanic tune I thought that was really funny.
Now I'm beginning to feel teary, it's funny but fitting.
Ignore me I need to get a life. blush

vegansrock Fri 22-Oct-21 21:15:34

It a funny how they all remember the numbers when using someone else’s phone.

Namsnanny Fri 22-Oct-21 21:10:25

HurdyGurdy you and me both.grin grin

calendergirl So funny, on yer bike. But don't people lock their phones? But Harvey is a lucky chap, and can use it to ring his mates at the airport!
But then does a detour to Horror Nation St.?!

So thats why Leanne had to keep her wig on, so she could be confused with Natasha. All is revealed.

Yes Calendargirl even when she is working on a car, she has a smudge of oil on her forehead, but her nails are always perfect.

Calendargirl Fri 22-Oct-21 20:59:19

Oh, actually found the last bit rather moving, thought we would see Aidan’s ghost come to meet his dad.

Think both Johnny and Jenny would have died from hypothermia though.

Calendargirl Fri 22-Oct-21 20:40:46

And through it all, Abi still looks to have perfectly manicured and varnished nails.

HurdyGurdy Fri 22-Oct-21 20:07:26

Well!!! I've just sat and laughed myself silly over the antics of Johnny and Jenny tonight. I have suspended all sense of reality and just taking it at face value now.

Johnny putting a cold wet coat around Jenny's shoulders just did for me. And then hauling himself up that ladder with her on his back - honestly.

I don't think it was meant to be funny, but I have been chortling away.

It's so bad, that it's good

Calendargirl Fri 22-Oct-21 19:37:43

Harvey’s going to cycle to the airport?

?‍♂️

gillgran Fri 22-Oct-21 16:53:19

As I've just mentioned on the Emmerdale thread, I think both programs, with the dramatics, are OTT, especially before the watershed time.?
I still keep watching though...!!! smile

Aveline Fri 22-Oct-21 14:51:13

Och I don't know. Simon's pretty annoying. The others are all having a nice time off though. No sign of any of the Barlows, Eileen's houseful, Brian, Archie, Rita, Tyrone, Fiz, Nana, Chesney and Gemma and all those kids etc

Namsnanny Fri 22-Oct-21 12:02:04

?Vegansrock good questions! IMV its it's because they think the audience consists of grannies who forget, and young 'uns who are mesmerised by bangs and whistles.?
In other words they get paid whatever they write.
Its frustrating to see the holes in the plot so easily though isnt it?

What ever happens to Leanne I hope she takes that awful wig off, and rips her skirt so its wide enough to run away. Mind you tight skirt and high heels didnt stop her when she skiddadled from the Bistro. It seems she only shuffled when walking on camera?.
Poor Simon if he gets it.

vegansrock Fri 22-Oct-21 07:37:18

How come neither Abi nor Corey had any signs of injury when they got out of the hole? Why have the scriptwriters forgotten that Johnny has MS ? - it’s never mentioned and he’s walking and climbing into holes with apparent ease. Harvey gets gun tonight - Leanne won’t be able to get away or will it be Simon who takes the bullet?
