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.

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

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.

Clawdy Mon 22-Apr-24 23:08:21

That was a very expensive single rose! £4.50 !

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.

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.

Sarnia Tue 23-Apr-24 11:14:06

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

Serendipity22 Tue 23-Apr-24 12:18:38

Ohhhhh drat and double drat ... i want to know 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

(( 😃 😀 im laughing ....

not ))

I read the spoiler too. Explains a bit but left wondering about the writers apparent amnesia.

Beechnut Tue 23-Apr-24 12:29:05

I’ve read the spoiler. I wasn’t watching Corrie back in the day so only roughly know what it is about.

what a lovely scene with nina hugging evelyn, then asha running in with the dog.

What was in George's will? I saw Todd reading it, but couldn't make out what it said.

Charleygirl5 Wed 24-Apr-24 22:55:01

I think Glenda has been left 50% of George's business, I am unsure who will get the first half.

BlueBelle Wed 24-Apr-24 23:17:20

I thought I saw the word daughter on the will but it was too quick for me
I did see Glenda’s s name for 50% I think
Anyone with good eyesight enlighten us ?

BlueBelle Wed 24-Apr-24 23:29:42

Oh well I ve googled it
It was an old will of George’s fathers tucked away leaving 50 % of the business to Glenda and 50% to George but obviously Glenda didn’t get her half as she’s always without any dosh

Doodledog Thu 25-Apr-24 06:15:03

Thank you all grin

Calendargirl Thu 25-Apr-24 06:53:21

Did Toyah and Leanne leave the little teddy near the rose bush? Not very sensible if they did, surely it would make any passers by or dog walkers wonder why it was there?

Hardly the best way to keep things hidden.

nanaK54 Thu 25-Apr-24 07:13:30

I found the Toyah storyline so moving, pleased that I had managed to avoid any spoilers.

Sarnia Thu 25-Apr-24 08:39:14

Why do the scriptwriters have to do it? By all means write about Toyah being left pregnant by a rapist and delivering her stillborn baby alone but burying her in the park!! I daresay we haven't heard the end of this either.

I thought I saw the words daughter too. So did it say 50% to Glenda and 50% to his daughter? It was such a fleeting glimpse that it hard to say. Anyway, definitely saw the word daughter - so George is a father and he has obviously kept it a secret.

Primrose53 Thu 25-Apr-24 09:34:42

Sad story but I had to laugh at those very obviously fake yellow roses “growing” in isolation.

Is the will not Archie Shuttleworth's? George and Glenda's father. So he left half the business to his son and the other half to his daughter.

Calendargirl Thu 25-Apr-24 12:01:22

Yes, it was Archie’s will, not George’s, that had been found down the back of the cabinet or file.

Archie (alias Roy Hudd) obviously left half shares of the funeral business to his two children, George and Glenda.

So either George has inherited the business under false pretences, or that will was never known about.

Doodledog Thu 25-Apr-24 12:03:57

What happened to Glenda's stage school? I'm not the best at paying attention, but I think she came to the street when she opened one.
