The only actor I can think of who has had a more reliable job than Simon Gregson is Bill Roache. Most actors spend a lot of time out of work or chasing different roles until they hit it big. He landed a role at about 14 and hasn't left except for the traditional Corrie actor cocaine addiction episode and his recent fight with depression. Thoroughly deserved though and will probably be around for a long time to come.
It's a shame Craig Charles moved on, the 'Steve and Lloyd Show' was the best thing on the box for many a year.

I really miss their banter - it was Corrie humour at its very best. Steve and Tim are OK but not a patch on the original.

Anyone think that Peter being robbed of his taxi scene was very poorly done? Intimidating man steps up out of the blue, immediate cut to add break, quick covid free socially distanced fight off screen, return to Peter laid on the floor without any form of income..

And now he's fallen firmly off the wagon purely because of a persistent passer by insisting he drinks.

The scripts are very contrived currently, limited way too much by the cv restrictions.

Ray often boasted to michelle that his time was best spent at his luxury hotel and not 'back street dives'. Also where has his car gone. Was the 944 not replaced?

On the subject of Ray, anyone else think his whiny nasal accent reminds them of the Gallagher brothers?

Seems like the meerkats are on the way out. Trailers say "have" been sponsors.

The Carla/Adam hook-up was telegraphed through both episodes. Not much subtlety.

Talking of which, apparently Underworld make peephole bras. (snigger). Maybe they're for Ann Summers or Lovehoney (I believe, or so I'm told.........)
