Really?? Maybe he'll sign for County and scare the opposition to death..

That should have read Tommy not Tony, but yes it’s true - Rick had a picture of him in his office.

Based on the nail bar, it looks as though a human trafficking storyline is on the way...

That girl he was talking to is super cute

Indeed, let's hope she becomes a regular

He left his wallet on the floor, so I'm guessing there's a follow-up storyline.

Still laughing at Kirk's songs - Beth's shopping list as a lyric!

My current working theory is girl at nail bar is going to bring wallet back to Seb, they bone, Eileens new bloke turns out to be her dad, hilarity / a beating ensues.

Rick's office with picture of Weatherfield County's star striker "Tommy Orpington" on the wall.

You either write for Corry, should write for Corry or have been reading too many trashy TV mags

[Leicester Loyal]

Word on the street is Gemma is going to get up the duff.

I was thinking human trafficking / modern slavery but I think you might be right.

[coppice]

Definitely slavery - too many clues .
I smiled, a little , at the Kirk song and cringed at the dog st- gate plot. Neither sits well with the Street's ethos - it's just embarrassing , like hearing your aged auntie tell a mucky joke

[cuprabob]

With Gary gone, Adam Barlow will be straight in there

[Fermit and Sexy Sarah]

A few bits of subtle humour returning, keep that going please. Gemmas twin returning a bag of her stuff to Ches, including a mentioned alarm clock, Ches - 'she won't miss that', and Kirk talking about going on the X-Factory.

[Escort3500]

Just remembered where I’ve seen Carla’s housemate before

[nicanary]

Enigma #1 - when Peter asked Jonny to have a look upstairs in the squat, the wino shouted "no" and so they didn't. Odd.

Enigma #2 - Seb's new girl was quite happy to go into Eileen's house, even though Jan caused her to be scared on a previous visit. How did she know he wouldn't be there?

The Peter/Ken/Simon drunken argument was embarassing and very wooden. AmDram emotion.

[200Plus Club]

Thankfully Seb remembered he's got HIV , before doing the deed with pretty new thing. He's obviously forgotten or the screenwriters did since the day that story fizzled out. He's also forgotten (like his mum) there's a pair of twins somewhere desperate for care!
Rest of it pretty much ticks along day to day in Corrie land. Gemma and rubber face story is a bit irritating now they are back from the Father Ted caravan.

[coppice]

New wonder drug innit? Cures both HIV and MS .

In other news , I saw that Ken (or rather Bill Roache ) turned 87 this week . Not doing bad is he , and surely nobody in a soap , anywhere , has enjoyed such an unbroken run. Possibly Peggy in the Archers?

[200Plus Club]

He's good for his age then. Limited parts these days but I imagine no one else on tv has played the same character for so long? Wonder if he regrets never moving on.
