Time for the next thread.

I s max David’s biological son? I thought he was kylies but not David’s.

He is. The Platts are an extreme example of a blended family grin

The Becky story is even dafter than usual. It was well-acted, and interesting, but not even remotely believable.

Doodledog Sat 13-Sept-25 16:06:38

I meant he is Kylie's but not David's.

Please give us an edit button?

Am I right in thinking Max and Harry have the same father. The chap that got buried in the extension

Bukkie Sat 13-Sept-25 19:06:28

Beechnut - You are right about Max and Harty being half brothers and cousins! (I think, very confusing) I agree with others, last night's episode was the first time I really cared about Lisa and thought she acted really well. Betsy is growing on me too, I think she does comedy and sarcastic teen well

BlueBelle Tue 16-Sept-25 07:35:46

I have always loved Betsy I think she is a great little actress obviously her part needs her to be annoying and demanding but I think she plays a young teen brilliantly
very pretty girl too
I found the Lisa /Becky story line totally bizarre and quite unbelievable poor old Lisa is now a bigamist !! Where does that leave Carla (of THE voice)
So Sam has now grown so much he no longer plays chess but waits on tables but still looks the same
Hurry up and fly into the sunset Abbey Karl and sex mad Theo

I curse myself for still watching the show as the scriptwriting is really poor now. A continuous circle of police and hospital visits for one thing or another. It's becoming tedious. Or is it just me feeling grumpy ?

No Happygirl79 it isn't just you. I frequently fast forward through the Theo, Lisa bits and when I got back from holiday recently I didn't bother catching up on the episodes I had missed, something I have never done before. I miss the simple Corrie. Ordinary people leading ordinary lives with a good dose of humour mixed in.

Clawdy Tue 16-Sept-25 08:22:04

Theo's evil glares are becoming annoying. Wonder what's going to happen to Billy's painting!?
Did someone say Lisa is now a bigamist? She and Carla are only engaged, aren't they?

Bukkie Tue 16-Sept-25 08:50:28

Yes just engaged but not free now (thankfully) to marry Carla. Come back Peter please!

Doodledog Tue 16-Sept-25 09:13:50

Billy's painting is doomed, I fear. As is Todd unless he wises up PDQ. It's a pity Eileen isn't around to give him a proverbial clip round the ear and show Theo the door. Maybe George will start to smell a rat and step in instead.

I have to disagree Cabowich I was so disinterested in the very daft Becky appearance that I was doing a jigsaw with one eye on the silly storyline So she’s been hiding up for 4 years what was she doing at the hospital when Roy saw her

David and Shona having another baby when they can’t even cope with those they already have
Do Shona and David have children then Primrose I thought they were David’s kids ( Max and Lily) not Shonas and one s out of the picture in prison so only Lily to worry about who knows it might be a storyline without a twist but then again pigs might fly

I know they don’t have kids together. I meant he has Max and Lily and she had a son. Not sufficiently interested to remember his name.

Primrose53 Tue 16-Sept-25 10:17:25

I am fed up with all the rude remarks Theo makes to Todd. Last night they were preparing to have a bath together and Todd said he couldn’t find his rubber duck. Theo did that horrible smirk and said he could find him something else to play with!

I guess the actors aren’t bothered what lines they get as long as they get paid but I find it very smutty.

Shona's son killed Kylie, David's wife, mother of Max and Lily. He is in prison - so they have done pretty well with their children, a murderer and an arsonist. David has tried to kill Nick and Gail, Sarah killed the man whose name I can't recall - father of her son and Max ......I'm going to have to lie down with a cold compress on my head, I haven't even started on the attempted murders of the whole family by what's his name who drove them all into the canal. How very different from our own home life.

Bukkie Wed 17-Sept-25 21:13:40

Callum is Max and Harry's dad.

Bukkie Wed 17-Sept-25 21:16:02

Love, love Dorin. I think when he adlibs Hope and Evelyn were too. Only possible with skilled actresses like Maureen Lipman and Isabella Flanagan.

Clawdy Thu 18-Sept-25 09:50:45

That giggling drumming scene was hilarious!

Aveline Thu 18-Sept-25 09:51:57

He is a wee star!

nanaK54 Thu 18-Sept-25 10:28:03

Oh yes, I love Dorin too!
Drumming was brilliantly funny and I loved it when he ran into to Tyrone's hospital room and said "you are awake"!
He is a bit of 'light in the darkness'

Maggiemaybe Fri 19-Sept-25 15:45:05

The drumming scene was very funny. But I think in real life that drum would be mysteriously going “missing” once Dorin had gone up to bed. grin

We have just come back from the Coronation Street Experience. What a treat for a lifelong fan like myself. I couldn't believe I was standing on the cobbles, having my photograph taken outside the Rovers and Roy's Rolls, looking through the gate at David's garden. I thoroughly recommend it.

Aveline Mon 22-Sept-25 20:10:40

Ooh I'm jealous but also too scared to go in case the magic wore off!

Bukkie Mon 22-Sept-25 20:47:30

Aveline - it was absolutely brilliant, our tour guide was fantastic too. There were Christmas decorations up because they are currently filming the December shows.

Bukkie Mon 22-Sept-25 20:48:13

They were not There were. I hate autocorrect sometimes.

Calendargirl Mon 22-Sept-25 21:24:37

Sarah killed the man whose name I can’t recall

Don’t think it was Sarah who killed Callum, it was Kylie who did it to save Sarah from him.

Clawdy Tue 23-Sept-25 08:48:23

So Danielle comes raging up to Todd and Theo, as if they had murdered the villain, when he'd actually died of a heart attack!
Did anyone else think Todd's eye looked a bit bruised? Somebody would have asked him about it though, I guess.

Aveline Tue 23-Sept-25 10:25:04

Todd's uncertainty around Theo and his moods is very realistic.
