I don't do it often just if someone really annoys me.

lemsip

damon seems to have darkened his hair, doesn't suit him.

and where ever did the idea of a crook stealing and crushing his car and returning it come from? has this ever happened in real life!

I’ll give you that lemsip as I noticed straight away too.

Why on earth would Sarah be so keen for Damon to share a cosy happy families meal with her oh-so-not lot?

It’s a wonder Damon didn’t run a mile.

It must be lurve!

lemsip me too !!!!

NotTooOld Mon 15-Jan-24 22:38:03

Wouldn't Max need to practice on a real head of hair? I think I've seen salons advertising for models for their apprentices.

BlueBelle Mon 15-Jan-24 22:43:31

He’s not even at college is he if he is I didn’t know he’d even applied… must have missed that
I would imagine you d have to be at least 2 nd year of college before you cut anyone’s hair
He’s literally only just started the job 🤣🤣

Charleygirl5 Mon 15-Jan-24 22:48:54

I thought having just started he would be washing heads of hair and clearing up. He would not be allowed to have a pair of scissors in his hand in a proper salon.

NotTooOld Mon 15-Jan-24 22:49:10

But this is Soapland, Bluebelle! Max'll be qualified in no time, David will retire and Max will be running Audrey's all on his own, or perhaps with both his girlfriends as assistants.

Calendargirl Tue 16-Jan-24 06:56:36

Adam must be skating on thin ice. Surely if his dealings with Harvey come out, he will be struck off?

His hair still has a life of its own.

Doodledog Tue 16-Jan-24 10:40:50

I don’t think he was doing it officially- just cutting whatsername’s hair as a favour. Now that he’s impressed David he will be on track for a glittering career though wink

Aveline Tue 16-Jan-24 12:02:11

But Lauren's hair looked exactly the same length!

NotTooOld Tue 16-Jan-24 22:08:53

I wouldn't fancy Max's chances with the dreadlocks of the other girlfriend! I think he asked her first and she said no. Sensible girl.

Was that an in the ear hearing aid in Claire Sweenys ear ?

Calendargirl Thu 18-Jan-24 07:04:30

It was fortunate that Doctor Gaddas was in the right place to overhear Gemma’s conversation about Joseph, and was then able to nip to the hospital to chat to the consultant and give her diagnosis, patient unseen.

No idea who the patients at her practice were being attended to by, as she is a one-woman band.

That woman could sort out the problems of the NHS, single-handed.

I thought so.

Agreed about Dr Gaddas’ surgery being unattended. Now that Aggie is away the hospital will be falling apart too. Are Gemma and Chesney going to split up? I hope not.

I wish someone would cotton on to what is happening with Liam. That storyline is so upsetting. Are all of the cobbles children going through trauma of some sort? It would be good to have some of them living carefree childhoods.

they're ear pods I think for i phones music

Happygirl79 Fri 19-Jan-24 21:54:54

I am a member of YouGov and interestingly yesterday's survey asked about many characters on Coronation street. Did I want to see more or less of them and why? I have a feeling that there has been a huge drop in viewers and some characters will be axed . Thank goodness.

Charleygirl5 Fri 19-Jan-24 22:21:38

I read that 3 are being axed this year. We know about Paul, another is a female who works at the factory and is married to the gormless chap who works there also. I forget their names. Simon is also going, his choice.

Ken and somebody else, a female, have signed for another year. I think it may be Sally.

Clawdy Fri 19-Jan-24 22:28:25

The bullying story is so upsetting, really hope Mason gets his come uppance.

Doodledog Sat 20-Jan-24 12:36:19

The woman married to Kirk is Beth. I won't miss her - she is similar in character to Gemma and Bernie, and they all verge on caricature. Simon hasn't had a decent storyline for ages. i never know if that happens because the actors are unpopular/not very good, or if they become so because they don't get the storylines. Either way, he won't be much of a miss either.

Ken and Sally have been in it since the dawn of time, so I'd be surprised if they left for any reason other than retirement. They'd both struggle to get cast in other things, and they are part of the fabric of the programme anyway.

It's interesting that there is a survey, Happygirl. They should read this thread - we'd all put them right grin.
