Another new Corrie thread

Aveline

How can Ken be in so much debt in real life? What does he do with it all?

He is in some sort of cult like thing? That may take some money.
And he seems to have unexpected tax bills?

In reality, I always think, never guess how much money people have[even if they earn loads]. Plenty of ways in life to squander/give away/help out family, type things.

But bankruptcy? That's pretty serious. I remember all that court case stuff but it was ages ago. Has he had lots of wives who need alimony etc? Must check.

Back from checking. No. His last wife died very suddenly in 2013 aged 58. Very sad.
He's now 92. Maybe we should have a whip round for his care home costs!

He's a druid, I believe. Quite a senior one at that.

He's heavily into astrology apparently. Not sure why that's expensive

When’s Corrie on I m fed up with this blooming football

Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday I think. I’m sick of it too.

I’m fed up with the football too, and it’s only just started.

Why oh why can’t they have a dedicated sports channel that I can avoid

Well, tonight there’s Corrie and then Sewing Bee.

Hooray!

Nothing that I wanted to watch last night, I only have Freeview, trawled through it twice, decided to watch a 10 year old Escape To The Country, watched about 10 minutes, thought “Do I really care if they buy a property?” And turned the tv off.

It is almost a week since the last episode. With my brain I will not have a clue what is going on. I have decided I do not like Felix- the list is growing.

Oh no. Who's Felix?! My brain has departed obviously

Drippy Summer's new chap.

I’ve decided I don’t like him too.
I must be getting judgemental in my old age 😂
For goodness sake Maddy, it’s only a programme.
I watched the new one on Channel 5 last night, it’s on all week at 9.00pm.

Oh yes. What's wrong with his speech? He definitely sounds odd.

He'll be another wrong 'un. None of the Corrie women can pick a decent bloke. Particularly if they weren't raised on t'cobbles they are shysters, murderers or generalised rotters to a man.

Is he American?

I just thought the height difference between him and Summer was ludicrous, she seemed to be about half his size!

I think he’s supposed to be American.
He is extremely tall.

It's not his accent I noticed. He seems to have a problem with certain consonants. Will listen more carefully tonight. I'll do a phonetic analysis.

he's American actor Robin Morrissey

what has abi done to her top lip? looks awful and she's lost so much weight too.

Bethany is looking more like Connie ( the doll in the ad breaks), although Sarah often dresses like her.

I noticed Abi had had lip fillers. Gives her a beak!
Felix has very sibilant s es.

Looks awful. Remember when she was an addict and had her kids removed from her? Her teeth were still white and shiny when most addicts have rotten black stumps.

Talking of teeth. Poor Ken, about to be lumbered with ghastly Cassie and her wolfish grin as his ‘carer’. Never was a word so misused.

How on earth much will she be paid? £25 seemed to be an original quote, she is happy to get a quarter if that, so £6 roughly? Is that per hour? That’s about minimum wage for a 16 year old.

Anyhow, Ken seemed to be doing ok, walking about, sitting down on his own. No sign of the commode.

Unsure why Felix has been drafted in, if he is going off tomorrow.

Can the Leanne/Rowan/Toyah/Nick script get any dafter? Leanne will soon be the High Priestess of ‘The Institute’, all the extra coaching she’s getting.

Is she the only participant?
