Good couple of episodes yesterday. I need a ‘Steve’ as my bestie in my life.

Anyway, here’s a complication of Evelyn’s scenes. Evelyn deserves winning best actress in the next British Soap Awards.

At 5:50 there’s a poster about Mary Cole...... wonder what that’s about?

Bored of the human trafficking story now. Can we not just have more Tim/Steve unicorn, Evelyn/Roy storylines instead?

Gemini’s mum can act a bit, she can stay.

Is Sophie pregnant? Big jacket, funny camera angle....

Sophie is, apparently, in foal.

Bored and it's only just starting?

Agree with Sopheh, she was looking haggard on Friday for some reason with no make-up and did look a bit swollen down there, saw her pulling her coat over it last night too. If so, she'll be getting written out for a while soon, wondering how and if they're going to do that with her weird on/off relationship with the solicitor.

They'll probably be running off to Lesbos to run a wimmins' commune. I noticed she's put a bit of weight on. Now I know.

Just when is Michelle going to smell a rat? She must be the most naive woman in the land.

I think it’s because the sub-standard actors involved in this storyline. Doesn’t grab me.

All the lesbos are very fit, there's never an ugly one!
I could be wrong here, but has any of the men ever tried it on with one of them? In real life if a new and attractive woman arrived in your area someone would unwittingly try to chat her up, yet all the men seem to already know. Apart from Rana of course who couldn't decide which way to go.
I've probably just forgotten, like i've also forgot how solicitor woman came onto the scene, did she just meet Sopheh in a bar or something?

IIRC, she's an old school friend of Sally's

Don't wish for that. We'll then be subjected to her angry bull face and caterwauling.

Anyone else see the walk by the 'worker' from the nail salon just before Seb turned up?
How bad was that acting - she made 'Wooden Will' look as good an actor as Marlon Brando. How could she possibly make a 5 second walk look that bad...!

Me too- as Dorothy Parker put it 'she deployed her full range of acting skills from A to B'. Or maybe just A - it was year 3 school nativity play stuff wasn't it ?

With Corrie being at least one of the top soaps and a great opportunity for any actor I am mystified why they keep bringing in (and sometimes keeping for far too long) rubbish actors. Surely there are enough good people out there they can use? Do they ever hold auditions?

I think Robert must hold the world record for quick thinking:-

Michelle:- "Where have you been"

Robert:- "Err, I had to sort that young offender out, he's been in trouble again"


M:- "I've been trying to contact you"

R:- "Errr, I've been chasing all around Manchester to source some carrots"

I suppose even the extras have to be members of Equity, unless that's only necessary if you've got speaking roles. How the heck they can consider themselves actors is beyond me. It's like they've been dragged off the street - "fancy earning a quick £50?".

I can just about cope with the non-speakers, but I agree with everyone about some of the cast who have comparatively important parts, yet look like they've never done it before. They're hardly even village am-dram quality.

Their shortcomings are all the more apparent when up against really good actors in the programme (Roy, Norris, Mary etc).

+1. Some excellent acting and a number of the good actors have moved on to grow their careers. Hence my point, why can't they get better actors in, unless Wooden Will Acting School has the monopoly!
