Yes, we all know itโ€™s rubbish, but Corrie is an institution.

We need to have an active thread at all times.

You are very welcome. Yes, Stephen needs caught asap and then he'll be gone. He's so annoying ๐Ÿ˜ก

Alioop Fri 30-Dec-22 20:01:14

Well, Leo's dad survived! Maybe Slippery Stephen will finally get his comeuppance ๐Ÿคž

Calendargirl Fri 30-Dec-22 20:56:37

WELL!

Just watching an old โ€˜Miss Marple - They Do It With Mirrorsโ€™ on Drama channel. Not one of the best ones.

And guess whoโ€™s playing a hunky young American/Canadian?

None other than our Stephen!

Made in about 1991 I think, and he is so good looking back then.

๐Ÿ˜

It was the voice I recognised.

And his acting was a lot better back then.

I was watching a Vera episode the other night and up popped Stu looking and sounding just like Stu

BlueBelle Fri 30-Dec-22 21:13:49

No heโ€™s not dead Alioop

Calendargirl Fri 30-Dec-22 21:15:14

Was he making a curry BlueBelle?

Did anyone spot Darian the refugee lad on the Three mobile advert? Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s him.

Alioop Fri 30-Dec-22 21:57:12

Yes I noticed Darian when I was watching Gogglebox one night

NotTooOld Fri 30-Dec-22 22:44:43

Lots of eagle eyed grans on here!

Leo's dad may be dead now. Didn't whispering Stephen switch off his life support, or whatever it was?

NotTooOld Fri 30-Dec-22 22:50:54

Just noticed CS is on again tomorrow, Saturday, at 8pm for half an hour. Unusual.

Doodledog Fri 30-Dec-22 23:17:02

Thanks for the heads up, NotTooOld. I would have missed it.

Calendargirl Sat 31-Dec-22 07:36:34

No, NotTooOld, he was in the middle of whispering that he was really sorry, but a guyโ€™s gotta do what a guyโ€™s gotta do, with his hand on the breathing tube or whatever, just about to rip it outโ€ฆ..when, thank goodness, Jenny nipped back in so dastardly Stephen was foiled, and they both had to leave.

Think Teddy needs a police guard around his bedside.

Another job for our Craigy?

Alioop Sat 31-Dec-22 21:56:23

Please Ted ๐Ÿ™ stay awake now and tell on Sleazy Stephen.

Mary was beyond irritating in that New Years Eve episode. Running around shrieking like a demented child. Can't stand that character.

Calendargirl Mon 02-Jan-23 10:24:28

And Mary mentioned a past husband.

Has that been brought up before? If so, I have forgotten Mary had ever been married, apart from that time with Norris? Or is that what she meant?

jenny mcalpine who plays 'fizz' is pregnant with third child

Oh goodness, that means ;

a) She goes off to look after Cilla (yet again).

b) She walks round with a cushion in front of her for the next few months.

or c) (And I think this is the most likely)
Alina and mini Ty will return, cause havoc, and Fizz will go off somewhere to get over it all.

Alioop Mon 02-Jan-23 12:12:42

Or maybe her daughter will be up to no good again with all the John Stape business and she'll have to go away with her again.

Beechnut Mon 02-Jan-23 18:30:17

Or maybe the baby will be written into the programme as a child between Fizz and Ty.

Wasn't she married to someone to do with science fiction or the paranormal? She has a son (Jude?) but I don't think she was married to his father. She married Norris to win a Mr and Mrs competition, but I very much doubt that their relationship was ever consummated grin.

Calendargirl Mon 02-Jan-23 18:48:28

No, she had Jude when quite young, very naive and innocent, an older man, was he a friend of her parents? and poor Mary no idea what it was all about I seem to remember.

Think her mother forced her to have the baby adopted.

The whole return of Jude storyline was yet another load of tripe by the scriptwriters.

Beechnut Mon 02-Jan-23 19:36:19

Never to be mentioned again!

sodapop Mon 02-Jan-23 21:06:59

All four quads there tonight and remarkably well behaved. Brian was quite the hero.

Alioop Tue 03-Jan-23 06:36:02

That dirty dog Mike trying it on with Leanne, Esther and him are such a weird couple. That's another two I'd gladly see go, with Stephen and Griff and his mates too.

Aveline Tue 03-Jan-23 07:02:18

Shona conveniently off to London for the amazing football camp with school and accomodation included. Suspect she'll have, er, 'lost weight' on her eventual return.
Roy can get himself to the EE shop we see every episode.
