I too have read the spoiler so will keep quiet but it has all the makings of another unrealistic storyline.

I know why Toyah left the single flower in the wood but I will not reveal the spoiler. I also could not believe the price and she paid without a murmur.

Toyha ????

Whats with the yellow rose and an apology ?

🤔

Don’t want to reveal ‘spoilers’, but have seen what Toyah’s ‘breakdown’ relates to.

All to do with events in the long distant past.

All will be revealed, in tantalising bites, no doubt.

That was a very expensive single rose! £4.50 !

Eileen looks really ill tonight. Reminds me of someone I used to work with, same height, colouring and build before she lost loads of weight. We kept asking her if she was OK and she assured us she was eating well but passed away from an eating disorder.

Roys friend Cathy (Melanie Hill) is busy in casualty tonight

I think that romance is on the cards for Adam and Alya!

Oh, I hope not!

I assumed the new job would be an excuse for not seeing her around whilst on mat leave.

Aveline Sat 20-Apr-24 17:55:23

Maybe Alya will be off to Norfolk to check on that supplier that Fizz just left.

LovesBach Sat 20-Apr-24 14:55:01

I thought that too, but surely she will be going on a trip, or just disappearing as some characters do for months, as her baby must be due very soon. Perhaps when she returns?

Not a very interesting episode last night.

Sam’s new chess opponent looked and sounded just like him!

Roy I believe is around the age of 74. I would not like to see him leave- he seems to have been there forever.

ITV want to save money. A few of the actors are salaried but most are paid whenever they appear. We will see fewer people in the pub, cafe and the Bistro for that reason fairly soon.

Clawdy Thu 18-Apr-24 23:07:50

Eileen is touring at the moment playing a leading role in Sister Act. Bet she's enjoying the break from Corrie!

Doodledog Thu 18-Apr-24 21:51:14

I used to like Eileen. She was a credible character with a sense of humour and a stoical attitude. Lately she does seem jaded, I agree. She used to be a matriarch who opened her doors to everyone because she cared, but she just seems fed up all the time. I hope the actress isn't ill, and it would be good if she could get some decent storylines and get the character back on track.

I really hope Roy doesn't go. The actor might be ready to retire though - he's never seemed young, and he's been there forever. The street wouldn't be the same without him.

Wendi Peters has left 'Doctors ' on screen today so will be back in corrie soon.

Calendargirl Thu 18-Apr-24 10:58:42

Well, her last exit would be for IAC.

vegansrock Thu 18-Apr-24 08:02:12

I’ve read that Eileen is leaving the street going to Thailand , no doubt in a taxi at the last minute. She went off for ages quite recently.

Calendargirl Thu 18-Apr-24 07:44:49

Wonder if being on IAC has made Eileen dissatisfied with her Corrie role, but sticks with it for the regular money, whilst keeping a look out for better prospects?

Kandinsky Thu 18-Apr-24 07:31:08

I’m not sure why Eileen is In coronation St anymore? She hasn’t featured in any main storyline for ages, and just pops up now and then to say a few lines. She looks seriously bored and fed up. I know she was never a ‘happy’ character, but she just looks like she’d rather be anywhere else.
Her new look isn’t helping as she’s the same miserable Eileen - just skinny with a new haircut.

Aveline Thu 18-Apr-24 07:10:22

Sean seems to have moved into Ahdi's old flat previously occupied by that lady with MND. Not a lucky venue!

Calendargirl Thu 18-Apr-24 06:54:51

Eileen hasn’t been the same since she was on I’m A Celebrity….

I’m all for losing a bit of excess weight, but somehow her weight loss and hairstyle don’t look right, I don’t know why.

Yes BlueBelle, I also thought I missed an episode when Sean decided to move out!

vegansrock Thu 18-Apr-24 06:46:46

Alya was a trainee assistant, now she’s suddenly got a plum job - if she was so good why did she leave the filing in such a mess?

Charleygirl5 Wed 17-Apr-24 22:54:06

Eileen has lost so much weight I hardly recognise her now.

Considering most of them are on the minimum wage they have sufficient to spend in the cafe, Bistro and the pub.

I have read Roy will be exiting for good, I hope not.
