so boring plot wise

Shamefully poor props on Andrea's fisherman husband. He's a coarse fisherman (uses maggots) - and coarse guys do not wear waistcoats with floats sticking out of the pockets nor do they kill fish to eat. Yes- I fish...

Deirdre visiting Peter in Strangeways as he faces a life sentence - "Have you met anyone nice in here?"

And the fictional TV show "The coast with the most" - class. Whitby beaten by Sheringham "it was a stitch-up". Probably. Sheringham has one of the oldest populations per capita in the UK - it's one enormous residential home.

Sheringham is far nicer than Whitby. It was a fair result. I fancy Weymouth to be too strong for Tenby.

Ooooh - that's fighting talk!

I love this thread, just disappointed at how often it is updated.

Been working away, catching up, and find myself thinking "I wonder if PH noticed that?"

It gives the whole show an added dimension.

The Diary of a Cancer Patient... Overdue library book.

Dark humour.

[AB]

Scene where Lloyd asks Steve for help moving Andrea in... Lloyd is starting to sound like a Manc!!

[AB]

Lloyd/Andrea scene where she confesses... Agree that Craig Charles is an excellent actor.

[DSLiverpool]

Craig was a poet / commentator for the eighties originally, he reinvented himself really and was the reason Red Dwarf was must see tv.

Very disappointed Rita has taken Dennis back in - can't stand the fella.

The new Tina ain't as good as the old one, were light on totty but as the gay nurse bloke is leaving I bet we get another homosexual chappy in seconds.

[MrOnTheRopes]

Peter being interviewed by DC I'm Serious Woman and DC Cardboard Cut-out. Are all police interview rooms this gloomy?

Gah! Outed! Right, I'm off to post a picture of Tim's van in the 'Bad Parking' thread...

[nicanary]

Is Tim the biggest-ever change of character in the shortest space of time? IIRC he was an idle chancer/sponger/dodgy character when he first appeared. Now he seems to be a good listener/bearer of sound advice/understanding a woman's needs etc..Not what you expect in a soap.

(BTW I think the "new Tina" is supposed to be Steph. OK I s'pose, but not in Tina's league).

Tim us the "temp" fir Kevin I guess, he had to do an extended stretch and has evolved (I think)

I know what you mean. Maybe next week Kirk will discover a cure for cancer whilst negotiating a Middle East peace deal.
