How does this mechanism lock the door?

Looks to me like the bit Ray smashed off is the bit that holds it in place?



Also, it's a chiller, we know this because the blue sticker here



says "the food in this CHILLER must be kept between +2c and +5c"

Your bottom pic shows a lock and key on the outside handle. Cant remember If Ray locked it before smashing it but I also dont know if it would lock the whole mechanism or just stop the release on the outside being operated. So if you locked it from the outside someone on the inside could still release themselves

In last nights episode when Abbey 'forced' the door open you actually saw the latch bit that the interior handle (the bit in the picture Ray smashes off) locks into, if you smash the handle off then the door can no longer be locked shut!



Here's the actual lock

Loved Abi's 2 meter pulse check and last rites diagnosis ....biggrin
Plus if they were both dead inside the freezer/fridge/cooler (or whatever!) who made the noise that they heard from inside! Well at least we now have a wedding to look forward to now that Abbi has proposed with a hoola hoop she bought from the hospital shop! What could possibly go wrong there then!

His patch that covers Manchester airport laugh
To be fair he was in every sense of the term a flight risk and travelling with a false ID, so having a cop there who could easily identify him was a good idea.

It seems like covid barely exists now, all the shops are open, hotels, Bletchley Park and holidays.

It's made up , it was shot months ago and who'd watch a 30minute lockdown scene with the opportunity to watch Jack Pratt and James Bailey run the full gamut of their acting talents from A to ....umm ....B ?

But I'd pay to watch a 30 minute soliloquy from Roy or Evelyn ....

Now there's an idea. Eastenders did it with June Brown and it was a masterpiece (can't believe I just said that about EE). Can you just imagine Roy doing the full 30 minutes reminiscing about Hayley ? Soap awards here we come.

Off topic, but we went to Bletchley Park a couple of years ago, fascinating, if you ever get the chance to go do so. (Near Milton Keynes)

I can't believe you're actually analysing fridge door locks on a soap op' laugh
If it was a freezer they would have died quite quickly, as they were in there a while and survived it must have been a fridge. Although saying that, what happened to Annie Lennox? We only saw Kev afterwards.

Billy is such a pisspoor example of a Vicar or whatever he is now. He has zero common sense or knowledge of how human beings work, is gullible, guided by his cock and shows no forgiveness biggrin
Poor old Seagull boy, out on his ear for no good reason, the new Todd has settled in well though.

Simon was a bit insensitive with his choice of words there. He could have said "bereft of life......" etc..

That's what we thought.

Tommy Orpington is going to be gutted when James Bailey moves in the next transfer window.

I'd say that's the most realistic portrait of any character in Corrie. hehe

I know , respect and like a number of priests and Billy bears not the slightest resemblance to any of them .

In other news , Peter Barlow seems to have gone prematurely jet black and he now cuts an even more striking resemblance to an Iranian politician .

Yes I’d guess that is where it’s going. Going to be fun when everyone finds out she is no better than Michael’s bird that she has been such an arse to.

And think of the glorious scene we are going to get when the dad finds out his Mrs is a ho, brother an arse and he has been raising a kid that isn’t his. He already sounds suicidal at the best of times!

Surprised they are doing this to the mum though as she is still riding the wave of NHS key worker hero

He and Ray both have awful, almost implausible intonations and fake accents.
