I think she did say it was in principle. All done on t'computer these days.

I don't see why Ruby even needs to know, it's not as if she ever asks, and surely it could wait till she was older.

What would have been last night's episodes are being shown tonight. I watched them on "catch up" and there were 4! Presumably they included tomorrow's 2. My brain hurts.

I don't do spoilers but on Wednesday's Tim and Steve are back on "daft little boys" form.

During the footie all the week's episodes are available on the player every Monday, so will also include Friday's.

ITV captioned Wednesday's episodes as Monday's. Must have been programmed by the tea-boy.

I can't be bothered with the modern rubbish any more. I like the 'classic' on ITV3
Mike Baldwin has been on form in the ones I just watched... not at all PC for these days haha
Found out about Hayley.... described as "she/he/it" etc
Surprised they didn't just cut it all out.

I was especially interested in Tyrone's new motorbike as I had exactly the same one in the same colour many years ago, here pictured at the dealers before I took delivery.

Gotta say - it had one of the best real-world, road-going engines I have ever tried back in its day.

I want to buy a house but need to move in this afternoon so do you know of any good solicitors and banks which could organise a bank transfer and contract exchange within an hour? Could try "Coronation Street Magic Financial Services" I guess!!

It's a bit annoying at times that they pay lip service to obvious stuff like this. Carla also bought the factory shares in the same afternoon as Nick advertised their sale. It's like they have to burn through the link stories in double time to get to the next scenario for the following month or so.

Alinas first child is due next Wednesday after a record gestation and will probably own the rovers or factory within the year..

I think the biggest surprise in that episode is that Leanne is only just turning 40

Maybe it is a Carol Vorderman 40!!!i

... and still just basically whining and moaning like she was back in the 1998 version.

Am I the only one wondering why Imran is dealing with Kirsty's estate? The solicitor is normally nominated in the will and Imran's business wouldn't have existed at the time she lived in the street.

Is there any end to Roy's talents? Greasy Spoon cafe owner makes professional-looking cake.

I thought the factory went bust after the fire and was saved by a worker’s corporation type affair and Sarah was voted ‘head’.

So what happened since?

The workers co-op was formed when Carla gave them her shares. Nick still had a half-share intrerest. Odd that Carla gave away her share and then has had to buy it back. Typical Corrie daft storyline.

The ownership of the factory is a total mystery - Who owns the building?

Gary Windass! I've forgotten why.

I reckon Izzy's new fella is a carer.

Anyone else think Sarah is getting hotter as she gets older?

Yes to both
