Steamy sex in the Kebab shop.

I hope they lock the door first otherwise Devindra might catch them "at it".

Nothing could take place in that shop - or on the shop floor in fact - which could rival Dev and Deirdre having their ...errmm... congress.

Robert's reaction to the possibilty of compo for Ches is a bit odd. Surely he has business insurance which would include public liability , probably up to £1m. I'm pretty sure Nick would have arranged it. He was pretty businesslike, and Robert would have taken over an existing policy, unless of course he was so tight-fisted that he cancelled the cover.

So yet again another "soap" storyline.

Will the wedding of the year take place? I suspect not - Norris is too fond of Rita. He'll come to his senses.

Away from current affairs on the Street, I have been musing over a conundrum. Where do all the cars go?

Whenever we see outside scenes in Corrie, there are hardly ever any parked cars in the street. You'd think that not only the residents would park there, but other people who commuted to the area daily to work in other businesses. We sometimes see Tracy's van outside her shop, and Tim's van outside his house, but what about the others?

Working down the Street - Peter at the Rovers had a Mondeo. Where is it now? Did he sell it to finance the purchase of the pub?
Ken's Matrix. Where does he keep it?
Norris - no car, yet he goes to the cash and carry. Does he use Rita's? Where does she keep it?
Ches - no car household.
Dev - had a Saab convertible. We never see it now.
Ty - last car I remember was a Mk1 Focus. Where is it parked?
Eileen - that Zoe she "won". Never see it.
Kevin - Yaris, but we never otherwise see it.
Adam/Daniel - no car. We have never heard any more about the Jag hire car he "sold" to his mate.

Other side of the Street - Audrey. She goes to work in her Peugeot 207, Where is it?
Maria - has a Ford StreetKa. Never see it.
Sally/Tim - van usually visible.
Yasmeen - no car. But where is Zeedan's food van? Seems to have been a forgotten storyline.
Platts - no car. Nothing, even with 3 wage-earners in the house.
Kabin - Rita has a car. Where is it parked?
Garage - Luke surely has a car? Young man, interested in cars, in employment. Where is it?

Presumably Victoria Court has some sort of underground park for Johnny's Jag XJS, and Nick would have used it for his cars. Does Aidan keep the invisible pink Evoque down there as well? He must walk to work, so where is it kept?

I think the only answer must be Tracy Island. I reckon the Street is on a huge hinge, and the cars are all parked down a ramp in subterranean darkness. Seriously, have you ever seen a community with so few examples of personal transport?

Kebab rotisserie/spit roast - essentially the same thing, just in a different position.

Jag hire car he "sold" to his mate. - That storyline was silly. A £30k car disapears and nothing is said. Some of the continuity is a bit crap sometimes.

While I think of it, one charchater who I'm glad to see the back of was Caz!

More wooden than the Woodentops lost in Kielder Forest.

I ask this question out loud at home when ever it cross my mind(usually every few weeks). The answer from my lot is usually "Dad, its a soap, it doesn't matter".

Still bugs me though.

Great piece of automotive investigation there. Maybe we should start a Coronation St wiki with details of the characters' vehicles... I always wanted to do similar for the hi-fi equipment in each house but never got round to it.

Thank you. I was wrong about Maria - on reflection it's not a StreetKa, but a VW Beetle convertible. She seems to drive it about once every two months. It's the weirdest street in the universe - nobody ever goes anywhere outside a radius of 200 yards unless it's to the precinct for Freshco or the hospital for the usual soap melodrama.

It's like a tribal village in a third-world country. They never date or marry anyone from "the outside". Love it, though.

It's the same with Enders though to be fair (not that I watch it any more) Everyone works in or around the square, dates each other, never leaves, it too is really all a bit Trueman Show. Plus the added oddity that even market stall shop or cafe workers can afford the rent or mortgage on houses costing surely £800k +.

Yes! I think you're right. Having said that, where is it kept?

I'd forgotten the best-known car of all of them!

I think Roy keeps it in a lock-up somewhere nearby. It's the sort of "sensible" thing he would do. Hayley always used to say "I'll go and fetch the woodie" if they needed to drive somewhere. Everybody else in the Street seems to have a vanishing garage - if I didn't know better I'd say it was to leave the street clear of obstruction for filming purposes. Like the TV is never on when neighbours call round, so you can have a conversation without raising voices.
