Time for the next thread.

Theo doesn't look quite real. Ken, of Barbie and Ken springs to mind - and the acting ability is probably on a par. Some have said Theo is wooden - I suspect he's plastic.

Devorgilla Tue 26-Aug-25 14:50:17

I think Brody and Kit still have some mileage left but Theo fell by the wayside a long time ago.
We need Brody and Dylan to be the new 'bad boys'. The girls are fairly tame except for Lauren.
Asha did well last night.

I very much agree with what LauraNorderr said, she has hit the nail right on the head (wish that head was Theo’s).
How can someone whose acting is as dire as Theo’s still be on the programme? He is so uncomfortable to watch and I have seen better acting when I went to my grandchildren’s Nativity plays!

Grannynannywanny Tue 26-Aug-25 12:08:29

Theo supposedly does a hard day’s graft yet his work clothes are pristine at the end of the day. His tee shirts are dazzling white.

LauraNorderr Tue 26-Aug-25 11:59:04

I do think that the actress who plays Asha did a very good job last evening portraying the awful treatment and consequences suffered by ambulance staff. An issue that needs to be highlighted.
Pleeease get rid of the plastic scaffolder, can’t act, is uncomfortable to look at, very wooden in spite of plastic looks.

Grannynannywanny Tue 26-Aug-25 11:54:13

I can’t bear Dev’s peculiar speech. I miss a lot of what he’s saying. I used to rewind the tv to try to decipher it and sometimes tried subtitles. However, I’ve reached the stage now I can’t be bothered and ignore his wittering as it’s usually pointless nonsense.

Crossstitchfan Tue 26-Aug-25 11:47:42

Oh, forgot to mention Dev. Has that prat got mental issues or is he just an idiot? His non-acting/over-acting gets on my nerves.

Crossstitchfan Tue 26-Aug-25 11:45:46

It was indeed, Doodledog, but sadly, that seems to be the way it nearly often is now. The scriptwriters are appallingly inept. A five-year-old could come up with better plots.
I could do without Brody, Kit and Theo, plus some others I can’t be bothered to mention. I could quite happily shoot Brody, he is so annoying, and slimy creepy Theo turns my stomach, especially when he gives that non-smile. Yuk!
I don’t quite know where the scriptwreckers can go with this now. It’s all got into such a tangle. And when did we last see anyone smile from pure happiness?
I’m off! I’ve got some paint drying that I want to watch. I need a little excitement in my life, after all!

Doodledog Tue 26-Aug-25 09:02:41

Last night's episode was dire, wasn't it?

Charleygirl5 Tue 26-Aug-25 08:56:27

Thanks for telling me it is on tonight. Dev is a clown the way he has been behaving.

Calendargirl Tue 26-Aug-25 07:02:30

Dev wound me up, telling Aadi what a wonderful son he was and how proud he was of him.

Is this the same man who a couple of episodes ago was banishing him to India and starting all this nonsense?

What an idiot.

Surprised Bernie has gone on holiday, missing out on Paul’s birthday (and Gemma’s) plus Aadi’s departure.

Brody still being a troublemaker, alongside Dylan.

🥱

Hmm, don’t think Carl is planning on playing Happy Families.

We think he’s going to get Abi to raise a load of money to pay off Tracey Luv and then do a runner with it.

No doubt daft old Kevin will forgive her.

Didn't look exactly thrilled, did he? Debbie commented that it is all 'The thrill of the chase' with Carl - she knows her brother.

karl to Abi “if we move to Germany you will have to learn German”.

Just about everybody in Germany speaks English. 🤣

Monday, Tuesday and Friday next week. We got bumped for sport.

Don’t we always? I HATE it that sport takes precedence and to hell with what we want! Why can’t they at least put the sport on late at night? Then, anyone who wants to watch it can stay up late and our programmes won’t be postponed/moved etc. it makes me fume!

They ll probably let Kevin get the blame and walk off into the sunset leaving little Alfie upstairs in the attic to fend for himself

Calendargirl Sat 23-Aug-25 07:37:55

This car of Ollie’s with failed brakes or similar that Dee Dee is defending him about.

Is it one of Carl’s dodgy MOT failures? If so, that will bring it all out in the open, the MOT scam.

Abi and Carl may as well confess all to Kevin and have done with it. £10000? What a joke! When do they intend telling him exactly?

BlueBelle Fri 22-Aug-25 22:43:13

Wish Amy would go with Aadi not because I want her to go but they could travel together we know they want to really and then Aisha could join them and start a new serial called Corrie kids and their travels

Diffuser Fri 22-Aug-25 22:01:12

Ah poor Kevin, fancy Abi letting him take the two boys away on his own. He really was ill, despite his lies afterwards.
Tracey is on Abi and Karl's case now and I expect that Abi will join the MOT scam to get the bribe money together.
Dev was so awful to Aadi and I don't blame him wanting to get away to India.
Oh and Joanie, that was a bit daft and nasty (Shanice is only little) when the social workers were still in the house.
Sarah Lou continues to irritate me.

Primrose53 Fri 22-Aug-25 21:40:08

Is Kev going to catch them Abi and Karl together? Hope so.

Calendargirl Fri 22-Aug-25 21:05:10

Debbie’s face also looked shiny when she was lying on the floor.

Perhaps shiny faces are catching?

I couldn’t stand Ronnie when he was first in Corrie, but I really like him now. A decent actor, and really fits his part.

No patience with Dev snivelling away about Aadi leaving. Should have thought of that when he was being so horrible to him.

Fed up with Brody and his sisters, Joanie hurting Shanice when the social worker was there, then Brody mouthing off about it.

As if their mum was blameless for being in prison. Dreadful woman.

BlueBelle Fri 22-Aug-25 20:08:12

Why is Abi s face so shiny like it’s smothered in Vaseline

Devorgilla Fri 22-Aug-25 17:54:01

I wouldn't want to be Carl when Bernie finds out he's leading Brodie astray.
