Muslims eating bagels for breakfast - is that a Corrie scriptwriter joke?
"....he's been tinkering with my marinated meat...."
I'd forgotten that Lloyd was away - visiting distant relatives as is the Corrie norm, this time his daughter who's in the clink. But we've never heard exactly why she's banged up.

I didn't realised she'd been banged up - Drug smuggling perhaps?"....he's been tinkering with my marinated meat...."

An interesting couple of episodes. Yet another "what have we seen her in before?" actress who'll be in a few episodes and then leave.
Presumably Steve is at last taking some "happy pills", but why are they working now and not before, or indeed had he been prescribed anything?
I've had a petulant whine recently about the "excuses for absence" amongst the cast, but Jimmy Rasharkin takes the biscuit. Off to Mumbai to help street kids sure beats looking after your sick aunt in the next town.
Corrie scriptwriters are very clever - so is this "planted" egg some kind of on-set in-joke? It's as old as the hills.

In the papers that the real Gavin dies leaving Andy as Gavin and in a hole - quite odd.
A very clever twist in the plot, will put Andy in an impossible situation.....Can see this ending in tears...feel very sorry for Michael...(Les Dennis).(Yes, I know it's only a TV show, but it could happen in real life)

This Owen/Linda business is dragging on a bit. She's had ample opportunity to tell her daughters what really happened, but seems loathe to do so. Has she got a limited vocabulary, or has Owen acted in a manner which would cause him to look bad in the eyes of the girls? Did he have a floozy? The public demands answers! (NO spoilers please).
Meanwhile, Dev (as usual) has wimped-out as he tackles the 2 women in his life. Now Mary thinks she's in charge of the kids, and Julie thinks she's in overall charge. Fur will fly, mark my words. This is an ideal opportunity for Corrie comedy writers to show their stuff.
(I only noticed for the first time last night, but Devinder's shop window decor scheme is the colours of the Indian national flag. Orange, white and green stripes. Only missing is the "wheel of industry".)

Funny how the corner shop has virtually tripled in size over the years, despite no outward signs of building work to extend it....
Of course we have had the odd train off the viaduct through the front door now and then, but as far as I am aware, remedial work did not include any extention of the premises.

One of the young girls in the very first scene was a certain Lyn Belcher, later to become Lyn Paul of the New Seekers, a group who were very popular in the early seventies.....

Well spotted......http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dutton-Melos-Type-2-STEV...
Might become a collectors item in the future, worth a fortune.....
I had previously remarked that there were 2 women in Dev's life, but Corrie has brought in a third one to increase the mayhem whilst he's on his mission in Mumbai. This is going to be fun.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and zumba classes.
And of course that great thinker and philosopher - Whitney Houston. Classic Corrie.
