As with all Corrie storylines it will be all forgotten about and moved on from in perhaps 5 weeks tops :-)

It's a fast moving show, there's a lot of action on those cobbles, got to keep the scriptwriters busy.....actually, I think that would be my dream job, thinking up storylines..

Will Craig fess up about his problem tonight?

It's possible Craig's problems were noticed even further back than that, I remember Nic' mentioning it on here a while ago.
ITV have applied to open the new set to the public on Sundays: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/5610206/coro...

Sorry, it's not my usual read (the Financial Times).

The shaking vicar is doing my head in. Very tiring storyline. Craig managed to get outside the flat and into the greasy spoon so that's a plus lol.

What is the Billy story? Lots of people think he doesn't need a doctor despite looking like the walking dead and he just gets on with looking sick.
Would that ever happen in the real world?

I've been doing a lot of fast forwarding with Corrie at the moment; the Craig/vicar story line is ridiculous and annoying.

Will somebody please put Billy the vicar out of his misery. His incescent whining and heavy breathing is really annoying. Hopefully he will overdose on the methadone.

I've had the misfortune to work with numerous addicts going through heavy withdrawals and poor Billy's are by far the worst I have ever seen, by quite some margin.

He'd have to have quite a habit not to have OD'd already by the way he's swigging from that bottle of Methadone. I get the feeling we are going to see Billy go through the full range of addict stereotypes before he's finally put out of his misery. Mind you, I'm surprised there aren't more McLunkies in the street.

They're all too happy with their lives. In the pub lunchtime and evening, eating out in the bistro, new clothes, holidays, all on a factory worker's income or unemployment benefit. Great life. No need to resort to drugs as solace.

Think I might move there myself - just look at the wimmin!

Plus you never have to look after your kids as they seem to bring themselves up and often disappear for months on end! I guess you need to watch out for the odd murderer, scam artist taking your money and have to live in a Tardis but hey ho that's a normal life init!

Indeed. The everyday life of Northern folk. Train for a fun charity boxing match, and end up with mental scars to last a lifetime. Happens every day all over the country.

Meanwhile, how often do we see some of the younger cast constantly glued to their smartphones and walking round like zombies? Yet that's the reality of modern life. Hey ho - won't stop me watching.

Nicola's pregnancy must be the fastest in history. She looks about 7 months now.

Summer irons bath towels. Does ANYONE do that?

I'm an old git too and I do love a bit of Rag 'N' Bone man smile

With regards to Billy's storyline, a drink of Venos or Benylin picks me up so I can only imagine what a little bit of Methadone would do eek
