Yes, we all know it’s rubbish, but Corrie is an institution.

We need to have an active thread at all times.

The last time I watched it, we had a black and white telly! Ena Sharples (and her hairnet), Minnie Caldwell, Elsie Tanner, Ken Barlow? Those are names that come to mind.

The quads were there for all to see, those who missed it even on catch up need to watch again maybe and don't blink!

It's amazing how so few knicker stitchers can produce such a huge output. No wonder they're outsourcing to Norwich of all places.

Doodledog Sat 13-May-23 07:34:56

I know, Calendargirl grin. Most of them were trained on the job too, after persuading the current owner to give them a job when they are in the pub.

Calendargirl Sat 13-May-23 06:52:32

It must be such a squeeze in that house…

It’ll be even worse when Gemma’s ghastly ‘bespoke’ wedding dress appears. It will need a bedroom of its own.

Why on earth are Izzy, Beth, Sean and co all slaving away in a back street factory sewing knickers when they all have the skills to be working for Givenchy, Dior and the other great fashion houses? If they can rustle up fancy gowns out of charity shop donations and factory floor offcuts, well, their talents are wasted at Underworld.

The quads looked lovely. Two redheads and two with brown hair. Aled's hearing implant in place. Goodness knows how they'll continue to all squeeze in to that tiny house as they grow.

Doodledog Fri 12-May-23 22:00:57

I didn't see the quads either (I've just watched on catch up).

What possessed Daniel to give a phone to Max? he would lose his job in a heartbeat, and it looks like he's going to store up trouble for Max too.

I feel so sorry for Ryan, but like others, I have no idea why Daisy thought it was a good idea to pretend to be Crystal.

BlueBelle Fri 12-May-23 21:21:19

I must have nodded off I didn’t see the quads tonight
Agree about the Amy /Aaron storyline has been done to death

sodapop Fri 12-May-23 21:18:58

Actually saw all four of the quads tonight. It must be such a squeeze in that house with five children and three adults.

Fed up with Amy and Aaron storyline. Her obsession with him is getting ridiculous

Absolutely!

Calendargirl Fri 12-May-23 21:00:23

Fed up with Amy and Aaron storyline. Her obsession with him is getting ridiculous.

As for Daisy pretending to be Crystal- how has she ever thought that would help Ryan? How did she think she would draw it to a conclusion?

Aveline Thu 11-May-23 08:55:48

Last time she had to go with Hope to a special school. I suppose this is OK but outsourcing to Norwich does seem a bit odd. Oh well.

what is stephen playing at.....wanting fizz to go to norwich

It’s just to write her out for a few months while Jenny McAlpine has her third baby in real life.

Nothing sinister this time regarding Stephen’s motives.

I think Jacob will return to the Street sometime, and Damon will make up with him, make amends for being a rubbish dad, and rebuild their relationship.

Think Damon will be a keeper in the programme.

vegansrock Tue 09-May-23 18:21:29

calandergirldon’t forget the stiletto diamanté boots, the low cut top and biker jacket have vamped up Sarah’s look too. At least she didn’t have to take the skirt off while her and Damon were having rumpy pumpy in the office.

MrsNemo Tue 09-May-23 18:16:00

Calendargirl don't forget - in order to become a good guy Damon would have to seek out his poor son, whose name escapes me now ( Jake?) and at least help him towards a decent life again. He was driven out by Damon's threats and painted as a drug dealer, after trying so hard to turn his life around too. I couldn't forgive him unless he does.

lemsip Mon 08-May-23 20:24:28

or damon even

Calendargirl Mon 08-May-23 20:15:05

Good to see Sarah offering up a ‘token’ resistance to Damon’s charms. (not).

That leather mini skirt seems to be a wardrobe staple, gets a lot of outings whenever she visits the Bistro.

lemsip Mon 08-May-23 20:15:00

ugh damian and sarah at it again,

Aveline Sat 06-May-23 09:12:37

He's one of the key people representing the big American purchasers of the 'Nippersnapper' range.

Did I blink because I have no idea where the fellow with an eye on Jenny appeared from? Also why is Stephen being so nasty about him and trying to put Jenny off him?

Because Stephen has always fancied Jenny and got as far as a snog once! Don’t forget he killed her boyfriend and then his Dad.

He probably thinks if he can get rid of Elaine and get all her money he will get back with Jenny.

Kandinsky Sat 06-May-23 09:02:10

He’s something to do with the factory Stephen runs - a buyer? He only appeared a few weeks ago. He met Jenny when they all went for a drink at the Rovers to celebrate a business deal.
Stephen still likes Jenny so is jealous.,

Yes vegansrock, I thought the postbox topper was great, plus all the little crowns scattered around, in the pub/bistro?
