Did anyone else notice the vertical joint all the way down the 'brickwork' here?



It looks like wallpaper!

My, that'd make rivetting telly - 'tune in to the next episode , and just see the excitement build as Nick and Sarah check the bidders' public liiability insurance '

It isn't a documentary - so some dramatic licence is ok , surely ?

Sure, but they wouldn't including the boring detail in the script. Dramatic licence is one thing, shaking hands on a £100k deal within a minute of meeting someone is just ridiculous though.

Yes, I thought it was ridiculous too, but it is the "Street" after all.

Interesting to see how this factory job is going to pan out over the next few weeks, the s*it is definitely going to hit the fan.

The problem is the "dramatic licence" is so OTT that the soap becomes unwatchable. Don't have to cover the reality stuff in detail but instant deals and the never ending money tree are just a joke!

Thanks, I've missed something somewhere as I think he found the key in some furniture he had, i'm guessing it came from Ricks office.

The Robert and pregnant woman story has gone a bit far now. Monday night he virtually killed her in the street for turning up, tonight he's back at the house with an accidental marriage proposal. Only on Corrie..

"County lines" story I'm tipping. Or very soon, topical as it is.

I agree, the Robert story is a bit far-fetched too.

With both women so thick that Robert can just keep inventing excuses for his behavour and they just say hey ho and get on with their lives.

The writers are definitely building up to something. I doubt it's a "county line" plot - she's just been away for several weeks. Her controllers wouldn't have let that happen. I also doubt it's another teenage pregnancy - we've just had Amy's abortion. Maybe it's all a red herring, and she's just being a typical teenager.
