The official PH Coronation Street thread

Must be a record for the most use of the word 'ginnel' in 20 minutes of TV!

And the drug car has got even more daft - like something out of Wacky Races now, he'd get pulled every 2 seconds in that.

I entirely approve as it is one of my favourite words.

It is a slightly odd choice of car for a drug dealer, I would expect either something entirely inconspicuous or a bit more 'bling'.

I did find the 'heavies' a bit ridiculous, hanging out in the pub in plain sight before dragging him down a ginnel with more than one way in to beat him up.

Must have the smallest front number plate in the world.

What's the betting Tyrone gives Paddy a bunch of fives before the weeks out?

[DSLiverpool]

Anyone noticed Paddy doesn't act he is just himself in whatever he does.

Is it a P1?

Haha, he is.

I don't know my Subarus to tell what model it is, but the cage has definitely gone missing, it was bright green!

Never did Danny Dyer/Dennis Waterman/Hugh Grant any harm.

I've just used Google Images - they're 2 different cars. I don't know my Jap tintop mobile phones, but the cars have different alloys, and different spoilers.

Yeah, what was that "monk" all about?......definitely very strange.....

Also why does Callum hang about with that moll of his, she is a real munter and as thick as short planks....

(In the show, not in real life I hasten to add).

It appears that he (like real life dealers) likes to get other people to do the dirty work - all the running around and delivering/collecting. She is too useful to him.

Talking of dirty work. How is a video of Bethany delivering a random package to a house and then another of her smoking a spliff in any way blackmail material? If he was going to threaten to show her mother maybe but he already has, but what would the police do with this considering it was his drugs and his flat?

You are aware that this is TV? It's not real?

[nicanary]

Just to tidy things up, these are the 2 Scoobys that Callum uses. Different registration plates. Possibly it was cheaper for the production team to buy 2 old banger Scoobys than rent something for the actor to drive. No need to have a valid plate if it's on private ground.

[Oakey]

I think Emmerdale must get all ITV's car budget.

How successful a dealer is he if he's driving that car?

And how come if his name is Callum he gets a personalised plate that's supposed to read Mickey or Marky or whatever?

[nicanary]

Max calls his T-Rex dinosaur "Trevor". Droll.

And Aidan - aka Shayne Ward - yet another wooden actor. Let's hope he's not here for long.

Does anyone know where the campsite scenes were filmed? I'm from North Wales but don't recognise it and the signs on the shower block don't look genuine.
