And Mrs Mainwaring in the only episode she was seen - the back view of a rather large bum lying in a bunk iirc smile

What happened to Eileen's car? Not that it'd get that far, but where is it?

Where did costume dept get Peter's shirt? Off Harry Hill?

I can see Peter and Leanne falling into each other's arms - he values an honest down-to-earth woman.

Will Sean fall into the trap of payday loan companies? Something is brewing here, and I suspect it's another Corrie "social issue" which they can't resist.

Rita: 'Mavis (as in 'I don't really know' fame, wouldn't she be long dead?) has broken her leg (?) and I haven't got anyone else I can ask' Ken, Audrey, Ty, Sally, Gail, Roy, just to name some of her very long standing friends on the street.

Seb and mum in Eileens house, scamming free rent. She's got a mechanic post at the garage, what, a minimum £1K p/m wage. That house surely couldn't be more than £500 a month rent, why would they just not rent it from her?

When has Alya ever used an embroidery machine, you can't just hop on one not knowing what you're doing.

What pub(s) was Johnny drinking in which serve until sunrise?

Adam represents Fiz on team Carla RE her sacking, whilst his immediate colleague represents Alya wanting to screw Carla over. How is that not an internal conflict of issues?

Sort out your attention to detail please Corro.

Mavis Wilton left Coronation Street in 1997

The actress Thelma Barlow, who played Mavis is now 89. In 2016, aged 87 she played Mrs Oscar Garmunder in the film Florence Foster Jenkins. There's probably still a bit of life left in the old girl

I thought the scenes with Toyah and Peter towards the end were first class, really good acting by them both, you can understand why Peter would be devastated by the revelations.

Will he hit the bottle again?

The acting as such was fine it's the daftness of the story that no one saw "the bump" as it we're, and no one twigged.
The factory seems to continually run with zero production and walk outs plus Kirky filling a box once an hour, and just a few extras who appear once in a blue moon.

Details sometimes grate on me when the storylines are weak.

I agree with you. Pretty well done, all things considered. We can't expect the RSC.

As I claimed in an earlier post, will he seek solace in Leanne?

I take it Eva is now clearing off, to have her real-life baby. Possibly she will return with an even bigger bosom. Something to look forward to.

Well yes, I understand what you mean.

Happily order has been restored and things are back to normal after she backed down with Fiz biggrin

That bald headed bloke in the background in packing amuses me, he's never said a word in ten years.....

They have to pay him more if he says anything or "interacts" with a cast member so better to employ him as a zombie!

Pedantic from the very start! I remember him admitting to Gail and Alma when they ran the cafe, that he prepared toast very quickly because he deep-fried it. Very un-Roy-like.

WARNING! Due to footballists the Corrie schedule next week is odd. Tuesday 8.00-9.00 and ditto Thursday and Friday.

Good point neither myself nor my girlfriend can remember why; although in all honesty he's a nothing character anyway he doesn't do anything other than just chime in the occasional line.

Looking forward to the drama with Aiden's baby should be a juicy storyline.

A major storyline is about to start around Sean being unemployed and surely the writers can’t just “make him” not be there.
