A thousand posts! How time flies grin

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

That was upsetting. I hate seeing children humiliated like that. I really hope that Mason gets his comeuppance soon.

Or he'll get a local job and rehabilitate (probably with the help of Roy) settle down with Summer and become a much loved character grin

Ha, ha, yes they have a habit of doing that, don't they? Abi and Becky spring immediately to mind.

No matter what they do to Cassie, though, she'll never become a much loved character for me, nor Beth, nor did Cilla. And as for Mason - ugh, no, I hope not.

Mason will get his come uppance ( eventually). He’ll probably go to the PRU with Max.

Poor Liam. And Gary has made matters worse.
And poor Aadi. Lots of trouble brewing on the cobbles tonight.

sodapop Sun 19-Nov-23 12:47:57

I feel the same way about Cassie, a very one dimensional character.

maddyone Sun 19-Nov-23 10:55:58

Neither do I Doodledog, I hope Cassie leaves the street and never comes back. I can’t take to her at all.

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 19:03:05

I hadn't noticed that Nina has a funny way of speaking - I'll look out for that grin.

Well, if Carla goes off into the wild blue yonder with Peter, the ownership of the factory will be up for grabs, as well as the Rovers. It will be all change on the cobbles.

I don't want Cassie to take over the Rovers. in fact I don't want her to hang around at all. I haven't seen or heard anything that says she will - I just think that when an already-known actor comes into a soap they usually get a big part. I have no insider knowledge though, just a fertile imagination.

NotTooOld Sat 18-Nov-23 17:50:31

The Cassie character is awful. Please don't let her take over the Rovers!

BEWARE! POSSIBLE SPOILERS

I have read that Alina is coming back, also Bethany and Damon. Perhaps Damon will get the Rovers although I have also read that Jenny gets it back. I saw a picture of the Rover's door with her name above it somewhere. According to what someone said last night it is to be turned into apartments and Maria says there is nothing she can do about it.

Aadi is lovely, isn't he? He deserves some good luck - not Amy as a girlfriend. I think he'd fit better with Summer or even the goth girl in the caff, what's she called? She has a funny way of speaking, too - must have caught that from Dev.

I agree Doodledog but I am certain Paul will be saying goodbye permanently then.

As for Cassie, I feel apart from her over-white teeth, her body could also do with a long soak. I hope she is not going to be a long term resident.

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 15:11:13

It would be good if instead of the usual festive trauma we could have a happy Christmas episode with couples getting together instead of falling apart.

sodapop Sat 18-Nov-23 13:42:55

That all sounds good Calendargirl, look forward to Damon returning. I think Bethany will renew her relationship with Daniel
Maybe Roy & Evelyn will finally get it together as well.
Think I see Brian & Mary together and Jenny back in the Rovers.
The child care group could be interesting maybe Tracy from Emmerdale could do that. I do have a life outside the soaps honestly.

Grannynannywanny Sat 18-Nov-23 13:33:24

Before Cassie takes on any high powered jobs I hope she gets her laundry up to date. Her jacket doesn’t look like it’s been washed since she was sleeping on park benches.

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 12:19:30

No, but she could be employed to manage it?

Calendargirl Sat 18-Nov-23 12:17:22

Where would Cassie get the money to buy the Rovers?

Am sure her made-up job at the garage doesn’t pay enough to contribute to household bills at Tyrone’s, let alone anything else.

And she’d never get a mortgage or anything.

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 12:13:12

BlueBelle

Beth and Kirkie parted company for a while while she had a ‘sort of’ fling with an old school friend Doodledog

Yes, but they seem happy enough now. They don’t spoil two houses, as my mother would say grin.

I hope I’m wrong, but I have a horrible feeling that Cassie will take over the Rovers. Claire Sweeney is quite a big name actress, and would probably have negotiated a starring role when she’s bedded in.

Calendargirl Sat 18-Nov-23 12:06:18

Ok sodapop, will throw out a few potential storylines.

1) Alina to return, plus mini Ty, who must be at nursery by now. She could come back just before Fiz’s return, leaving Tyrone in a quandary, as Alina will still be quite alluring. She could get a job at Audrey’s doing nails.

2) Someone, (not sure who) needs to set up a proper child minding/ playgroup/ nursery school. ( Not Gemma!)There must be so many potential customers, the quads, Glory, mini Ty, Bertie, Alfie …..

3) Damon must return! Have read that Bethany Platt is due to come back to Corrie, am sure if she does, she will catch Damon’s roving eye and cause jealousy with mum Sarah. He will probably share himself out between them both.

4) Seeing as the Kabin is not doing very well, perhaps Brian can sell it and buy the Rovers. He and Jenny could run it together, on a strictly business footing.

Is that enough ideas to be going on with?

At long last Glory put in an appearance this week.

maddyone Sat 18-Nov-23 09:36:20

But where is Beth? She’s another one who’s not there. Then there’s Aggie, Fizz (I think she’s having a baby in real life) Abbie’s baby, and two of the quads because we only ever see two of them.

Aveline Sat 18-Nov-23 08:46:11

Wonder who will buy the Rovers? Jenny with Rita's backing? Bit boring. Maybe someone new?

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 08:27:08

The only happy couples I can think of over the years have been Roy and Hayley, Derek and Mavis and Beth and Kirkie. Maybe Chesney and Gemma count too, but it's not a great average considering the number of people.

Beechnut Sat 18-Nov-23 08:07:54

Aadi is a bit of a sweetheart I hope they end up together^

And be happy but I suppose that’s too much to ask!

BlueBelle Sat 18-Nov-23 07:59:47

I agree totally Doodlebug it’s good to show that rape or any type of abuse is not something you can just sweep away but it’s going on and on and getting more unrealistic each time I find the Amy storyline in the club totally OTT and unrealistic

Doodledog Sat 18-Nov-23 07:45:22

I think that showing that women don’t just get over rape is more responsible than just dropping the story, but this is over the top.

The onesies were probably part of the charity thing that seems to be going on. Was it Children In Need? I saw a few people in onesies yesterday, and children went to school in pyjamas.

Cassie of all people going on about vapes was a bit much. And shouting at Shaun was pointless when it was Dylan who was supposedly at fault.

Poor Aadi. He doesn’t have much luck with the women in his life, does he?
