Time for the next thread.

The baby will be Kit's no doubt.

BlueBelle Wed 10-Sept-25 04:57:12

Didn’t she have the fling with Kit months and months ago the baby would be practically ready to pop by now (or has time just stood still on the cobbles)
Sorry about Tyrone but the bed was a bit empty and lonely wasn’t Gary the last occupant?
So who’s the appearing woman ? I must have missed some bits out without realising it or maybe dozing

I would like to know who has spooked out Lisa. I was busy with a crossword whilst Corrie was on so only half concentrating on it. I wondered if this was her late wife but that would be stretching credibility a bit far but this is Corrie.................

The appearance of the dead wife/mother, at least we assume that’s who she is, is obviously designed to put a spoke in the wheel of the Carla/Lisa forthcoming nuptials.

Lisa will choose the Becky one, as to me Carla has always seemed second choice.

It will leave Carla free to jump on the first available male, as I’m sure she will swap allegiances if necessary.

Something else I’d forgotten about as there was so much else going on in that episode. When Betsy left the house after the cringey birthday session she appeared to hold her abdomen as if in pain.

Does she have a mystery illness brewing or did she just drink too many shots?

I thought they might just be setting her up as a candidate for the one who took the pregnancy test. But if that’s the case, the tension didn’t mount for long!

Yes, that’s what I wondered at the time
Maggiemaybe. But then so much else happened for the remainder of the episode I didn’t give it another thought till this morning!

Aveline Wed 10-Sept-25 09:12:57

Argh! It's not on tonight and I was looking forward to Betsy's reaction to her birthday surprise visitor.

Kate1949 Wed 10-Sept-25 09:26:35

Oh yes of course. It's too long ago with Kit. I get muddled with all the shenanigans!

Grannynannywanny Wed 10-Sept-25 10:26:43

Often the soap storylines are boringly predictable. But not that episode with previously deceased Becky turning up.

I hadn’t seen any spoilers and it took me by surprise. Surprising/ludicrous but I’m looking forward to seeing what unfolds. If Roy hadn’t spotted Becky I’d have thought Lisa was hallucinating.

I thought they’d exhausted the undercover cop stuff with Spider. Corrie has so much police activity it’s becoming like The Bill.

Aveline Wed 10-Sept-25 10:48:31

It's thanks to Roy's new improved eyesight with glasses that he was instantly able to recognise Becky from a once glimpsed photo of her!

Grannynannywanny Wed 10-Sept-25 12:43:51

Aveline 😂

Charleygirl5 Wed 10-Sept-25 12:47:43

Apparently Becky has been away for 4 years-where on earth has she been?

I think Betsy has only recently slept with Dillon so it is too early. I did not hear she had hopped into anyone else's bed.

JenniferEccles Wed 10-Sept-25 13:28:22

I did wonder if perhaps Peter Barlow would have turned up to throw a spanner in the works.

I was imagining the usual soap scenario whereby a car pulls up, and the camera focuses on the legs and feet of the occupant as he or she gets out.

Happygirl79 Wed 10-Sept-25 14:28:12

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 ?

Aveline Wed 10-Sept-25 15:55:32

I thought the last episode was great!

Maggiemaybe Wed 10-Sept-25 16:43:20

Well it’s been a while since I was really looking forward to a Corrie episode, but I can’t wait till Friday (how annoying that we have to wait). There are a lot of questions to be answered! smile

Cabowich Sat 13-Sept-25 09:31:24

Even though Becky turning up was stretching the limits of credibility, I did enjoy last night's episode.

For the first time ever I thought of Vicky Myers (Lisa) as a good actress. Her panic attack was much better than that of Asha's a few weeks ago (too overdone).

It wasn't just the panic attack, though, I thought she acted well for the entire episode. Funny to see Carla as an almost speechless bystander, too.

Grannynannywanny Sat 13-Sept-25 10:10:01

Whether Becky hangs around or disappears again surely they have to tell Betsy that her mother is alive. But I suspect Lisa will do her best to withhold it for now and in soap style fashion Betsy will spot her loitering in the distance.

David and Shona look very happy about the pregnancy. Wouldn’t it be lovely to have a normal pregnancy on a soap that doesn’t involve drama, emergency hospital visits and sadness.

Cabowich Sat 13-Sept-25 11:02:25

I fear that the fact they are happy about the pregnancy means that something will inevitably go wrong.

Last night’s episode was bonkers.

That Becky turning up in that daft hoodie was ridiculous.

David and Shona having another baby when they can’t even cope with those they already have!

Aveline Sat 13-Sept-25 12:17:45

I remember that happening before to Steve's mum. Turned out it was menopause. Another rich seam for the writers to mine.

BlueBelle Sat 13-Sept-25 13:07:23

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

Aveline Sat 13-Sept-25 15:06:33

I can't even imagine how it would feel for a much mourned loved one to just turn up like that. I think Lisa did a good job of acting there. I quite liked how it exactly happened came out in parts. Explains a lot but there could be more to it.

Ellie Anne Sat 13-Sept-25 15:58:24

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