A thousand posts! How time flies grin

Post your moans, praise and observations about life on the cobbles on this shiny new thread.

Peter is a very good actor, but I don't think he'll really be missed. I did like the scene where Roy gave Evelyn the book, it was so well-done.

Yes, I also read about Simon moving on.

Will he go to join Dad on the boat?

What if Carla had actually agreed to go and join the crew? Don’t think she would have been much use, more hindrance than help.

I haven’t seen the Christmas episodes and I’m not going to bother catching up if they are all about the Baileys and Peter and Carla yawn….

I read that the fellow who plays Simon is "moving on" mid summer. He cannot act so I hope he has not forgotten he will need skills as a waiter.

Well, at least Peter didn’t depart in the ubiquitous taxi.

The Christmas Day scene with the Bailey family was pathetic. They were sitting feeling sorry for themselves with a space under the Christmas tree where the presents used to be and no turkey to cook. Debbie Webster , upmarket hotel owner, was sitting in their midst. Instead of Debbie suggesting they went to the hotel to eat it fell to Aliya and Yasmeen to invite them all to Speed Daal to eat the leftovers 🙄

The Christmas day episode was very poor wasn't it.

Are you aware that Cassie, Claire Sweeney is taking part in Dancing on Ice? At least she will not be in Coronation Street while she is practising ice dancing.

I thought she was good when she was in Brookside but that was many years ago. Whenever I see her I feel she could do with a soak in a bath because to me she rarely looks clean.

What gives you the impression I do not like her?!

Grannynannywanny ‘oh no boys and girls, will you help me find them’.
Priceless 😂😂😂

He’s absolutely not Aveline but I wondered if he might buy it as an act of revenge following Daisy’s behaviour. I’ve spent too much time thinking about this 😆

Aveline Sat 23-Dec-23 17:22:03

Gosh. Daniel. He's not exactly 'mine host' material.

Grannynannywanny Sat 23-Dec-23 16:47:45

The Bailey family deserve an award for their bad acting. Not helped of course by poor storylines. The scene where they arrived home to find Ed with a bloody nose after an alleged burglary was awful. A split second after arriving dopey Michael noticed the presents were missing. It was like a pantomime. I expected him to skip round the room then turn to the camera and excitedly say “oh no, boys and girls will you help me find them?

Does anyone else suspect Daniel is the secret bidder for the Rovers?

Aveline Sat 23-Dec-23 08:34:19

Will be interesting to see how it all goes. I read that Cassie decided to split up Abbey and Kevin. Nasty besom!

Calendargirl Sat 23-Dec-23 08:03:08

Aggie couldn’t act either.

When do Jenny and Daisy envisage making any type of profit, let only enough to pay Carla back? And how will they do it? A handful of notes in a brown envelope, pushed through Underworld’s letter box in the dead of night? At monthly intervals?

A quarter of a million will take a few years methinks.

harrigran Sat 23-Dec-23 07:15:49

The Bailey family spoil Coronation street for me, they are all dreadful actors.
I was rather hoping that Ed would not survive the beating up last night. Aggie is well out of it, good for her, she probably decided that her role in the soap would damage her reputation.

vegansrock Sat 23-Dec-23 03:24:57

Why would Newton and Ridley sell Jenny the Rovers when she couldn’t run it profitably last time ? Let’s hope it’s Damon that buys it.

maddyone Fri 22-Dec-23 22:45:28

I don’t like the Baileys except for Glory, who’s very cute.
And I nearly forgot, I like DeeDee very much.

I expect PC Craigy will soon arrive to investigate the ‘robbery’ of the Christmas presents.

Top priority.

He’s already arrived grin

It’s Cassie’s Big Bad Wolf Teeth and Smile that’s so scary.

She just snarls at the camera.

Awful!

I always call her Carla the Snarler

LauraNorderr Fri 22-Dec-23 21:49:23

Carla had a letter from Rob. I had to look it up, it was Rob Donovan her brother serving 25 years for killing Tina, I wonder if he’s about to be released.
Boring Baileys need to move on, preferably somewhere far away but please leave Didi, I like her.

Ooh, yes, ghastly old grandad Bailey, not to mention Dopey Ed. They need Aggie back to sort them out but I read somewhere that she's not coming back at all. Don't know why.

I wish Cassie would disappear. She's dreadful, looks quite creepy and she's obviously a bad influence on Horrible Hope - there's another one headed for trouble.

harrysgran Fri 22-Dec-23 17:36:17

Totally agree about the boring Bailey family worst acting on corrie

Calendargirl Thu 21-Dec-23 06:49:09

The sooner ghastly old grandad returns to the Caribbean, the better.

Preferably with Ed and Cassie in his luggage.
