Roll up, roll up!

The old one is full, so post your Corrie thoughts and observations here.

Is Dee Dees new boyfriend a bit weird or is it just me?

I thought it was good when Audrey said about Sarah's "accident", and Sarah corrected her.

corrie script is a damp squib through the last few of the stephen outcome. very poor.

Beechnut Tue 17-Oct-23 09:19:03

I’ve put it on Watch this thread.

vegansrock Tue 17-Oct-23 08:10:55

You obviously have to post 3 times before it moves!

vegansrock Tue 17-Oct-23 08:10:21

Why doesn’t this thread move onto the active threads?

vegansrock Tue 17-Oct-23 08:09:08

I was waiting for Ryan telling the lads about his online porno career.

Tim must be superman to survive after days confined in a car boot with no water or toilet facilities. (!) and be able immediately to get out and back in the car making phone calls, still he did get over his heart op in about 10 minutes. Lucky DC blonde lady happened to overhear Sally spilling the beans, hope we don’t have to go through another trial.

CoolCoco thanks for that, silly me thought the sport was finished.

CoolCoco Mon 16-Oct-23 21:14:09

Just a heads up - Corrie is on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week.

Doodledog Sun 15-Oct-23 11:26:15

No worries. I usually haven't much of a clue, even when I've seen it, as I am knitting or clearing up when it's on, but I've managed to pay attention to the last couple of episodes grin

maddyone Sun 15-Oct-23 11:15:06

Ahh, thanks Doodle.

Doodledog Sun 15-Oct-23 11:07:38

No. Peter thought that Stephen was going to kill Jenny (he had her by the throat) so ran him over in his taxi. The police are questioning him for murder.

maddyone Sun 15-Oct-23 10:50:34

So is Peter dead?
I still haven’t caught up. Family here from New Zealand. No time to watch.
Lazy morning today, all three of my adult children are running in the Great South Run and children are down there with them and other assorted relatives. So I’m wasting time on Gransnet.

Agree with Calendargirl about Paul's dying being the Christmas story.

Next week, though, we've got the Ryan and Daisy story rearing its ugly head. I really can't stand Ryan at the moment - he's repulsive, and I don't mean his scarred skin, I mean his addiction to steroids and his sex photos/videos. Bluuugh!

Aveline Sun 15-Oct-23 07:31:38

I don't know. At least we're spared a prolonged court case. Of course poor Peter won't be unless Audrey gets a grip!
Paul's illness will be back to front and centre of course.
Maybe there'll be a Christmas opening for the Rovers and it's all new staff?

BlueBelle Sun 15-Oct-23 05:33:47

Considering half of coronation st get knocked down on the cobbles by cars, buses or taxis it was unlucky for Peter that he died instantly and a shame I liked Peter I d have rather it been Craigy rushing there in his little cop car or Audrey and her cataracts
I wanted Stephen to see the fruits of his labour and see him have a bad time in prison that would have been fun
It really was an awful episode so unreal, so unlikely, and such a fizzle out
Boo, Coronation Street, not well done at all, all those months and months of build up for nothing

maddyone Sat 14-Oct-23 23:57:55

Oh no Calendargirl, that would be too sad.

Calendargirl Sat 14-Oct-23 19:54:54

Will the Christmas storyline be Paul dying?

Sorry to be a damp squib.

Aveline Sat 14-Oct-23 17:03:54

The Rovers must go on!!

Doodledog Sat 14-Oct-23 14:47:47

I wonder if there will be another disaster befalling it? A fire, a tram landing on it, an explosion, aliens landing on the roof?

A new look meeting place might be more realistic than a local pub that is visited by all the residents, old and young, rich and poor at all hours of the day and night. If such places ever existed they must be very thin on the ground now. I'm not sure that we have such meeting places these days, which is a shame for communities, but they are godsends for scriptwriters needing a way to get people together who wouldn't ordinarily be together very often. There is already a cafe where people spend more time than seems likely, and a bistro where the same applies. The only customers in either are very local people who might venture a bit further away for a night out, instead of having their conversations and airing of dirty linen talking place amongst the neighbours.

I'd like to see the Rovers survive though, however improbable it might be.

Lyndylou Sat 14-Oct-23 13:59:06

Where is Steve? He and Tim are usually joined at the hip and why isn't he worried about where the cab is? I would have thought Tracey would be nagging Steve about the loss of earnings by now and Eileen would be shouting about all the taxi jobs that have had to be cancelled.

Beechnut Sat 14-Oct-23 13:48:32

Not an explosive storyline but Christmas could be the reopening of the Rovers.

Kandinsky Sat 14-Oct-23 13:09:07

Agree that Sally seemed mildly concerned at best, like she was at work but wasn’t sure if she’d left the iron on.
David out shines most of the cast with his witty one liners.
Not sure what the big Christmas storyline will be? Probably nothing to do with current events - maybe Tyron’s ex coming back from abroad with his love child?

ExDancer Sat 14-Oct-23 12:34:23

I'd have liked Stephen to have escaped to Thailand, giving him a chance to return and cause further havoc in the future. Irritating though he is, it was good to have a villain to hate.
