Some very touching moments with Paul and his family, MND is truly terrible illness.

I agree about Adam's hair BlueBelle it's a separate entity smile

Back to Roy, I would have thought with his personality the last thing he would have done is be prominent at the vigil - he wold be the first to say this is about Lauren, not me.

Sarah dressed demurely for her prison visit.

lemsip Fri 29-Mar-24 20:21:19

yes I hate what they are doing to sarah {tina O'brien) she's only 5ft1. height....I think having her boobs 'out' is a step too far. lol

lemsip Fri 29-Mar-24 20:23:01

oh and look at the change in cassie

Doodledog Fri 29-Mar-24 20:26:24

Cassie's looking good. Is she going to get together with Steve? They won't spoil two houses, I suppose.

Just watching Gogglebox discussing Corrie Street and 91 year old Ken still pulling the birds.

Anyone else fascinated with what Adam manages to do with his mop of hair? It changes every time we see him. Also wonder if I would be impressed if a solicitor I consulted looked so carelessly dressed.

Aveline Sat 30-Mar-24 08:58:36

I'm not sure what I'd expect from a backstreet law firm like his. The office entrance and office itself is so scruffy and off-putting.

Caught a few minutes of Classic Corrie yesterday, ( never watch it usually).

Had forgotten just how pretty Tracy was all those years ago.

Charleygirl5 Sat 30-Mar-24 10:32:09

Apart from Adam's hair and clothes, I do wonder if he has had a shower recently. I have several combs I am sure I would not miss at least two—one at home and the other at work.

I agree I doubt if the law office has seen new furniture or a lick of paint since the 1940's.

Gemma made me laugh with her fake 'posh' voice when the lady from the school visited. They made a good job of tidying up before the visit as well.

I didn't know that the actor who plays Billy had a brother who died from MND, must be difficult for him in his scenes with Paul.

Doodledog Sat 30-Mar-24 16:30:37

Oh, I didn't know that either. I know the MND Association had a hand in the story, and have approved it.

I agree about Gemma - she's a good comedy actress, and at times like this the character really comes into herself. She's so kind and well-intentioned, but would be really annoying if you knew her. Her mother's the same - their roles are well drawn, I think. A very young Chesney is currently in Old Corrie, as is his dreadful mother. It's amazing they are such good parents themselves, really.

Calendargirl Sat 30-Mar-24 18:08:43

Gemma seemed to go from one extreme to the other. She looked like a younger version of Mary Whitehouse (minus the specs) when the Oakhill woman visited, but looked the opposite when she actually went with Joseph to the school, short skirt, fishnet tights and boots, at least I think that’s what she wore.

Poor Joseph must feel like disowning her and Chesney.

So it was goodbye from the handsome Damon last night but they have left it open for him to return some time if he wants to.

Calendargirl Sun 31-Mar-24 07:13:52

Oh no, I didn’t realise Damon had actually left!

No doubt Sarah will be hopping into bed with Adam again in a couple of weeks, dodgy hair and all!

Me neither, proves im not as much a Corrie fan as I thought hahaha.

Had to laugh at the bit about no doubt Sarah will be hopping into bed with Adam hahahahaha.

BlueBelle Sun 31-Mar-24 12:35:08

I didn’t know Damon had left ahh !!! he was a bit of a sweetie better than old Adam of the mop

Aveline Sun 31-Mar-24 14:34:28

Awww. Sarah used to be happy with Adam and he was good with wee Harry. Perhaps with hairdressers in the family they could sort his hair out? Mind you David can't seem to do much with his own (new) hair.

Doodledog Sun 31-Mar-24 15:32:12

Adam is a good looking chap, and his hair in its various guises would be ok if it looked clean. Somehow it never does, though. I don't know if he uses that styling powder, which makes it look matt and grubby.

lemsip Sun 31-Mar-24 22:05:21

cilla is returning...Actress Wendi Peters who has just left bbc1 Doctors. is coming back in corrie.

Doodledog Sun 31-Mar-24 22:22:20

Oh! She was really dreadful grin. I wonder if she’ll move in to the elastic house?

BlueBelle Sun 31-Mar-24 22:26:51

Who was Cilla can’t think who she was ?
Adam is a good looking lad and he would look much better with shorter hair whereas David looks like a little troll most of the time I feel the need to put his hair up in a top knot

Doodledog Sun 31-Mar-24 22:40:09

Cilla is Chesney’s mum. She was Les Battersby’s girlfriend for a while, when he and Kirk lived in what is now Gemma and Chesney’s house. She was awful. Always on the make, and very neglectful of Chesney and Fizz.

BlueBelle Sun 31-Mar-24 22:42:27

Ohh I expect it ll come back to me must have been a long time ago
