Was thinking earlier about how recent (unfinished or abandoned) storylines in Corrie have been about health in the main. They've done to my knowledge-
Ken- went senile after a stroke, all cleared up
Carla- drinking, liver failure, then psychotic, now almost right as rain.
Young lass with baby and cancer- terminal /life threatening? Now seemingly cured.
Tim- heart attack and health issues- "poof"! All gone
Craig (is he still in it?) OCD and couldn't leave home. All fixed up and detective in training.
Squinty double timing chef- heart attack or similar? Fit as a fiddle now and taking care of two ladies plus hundreds of miles a week driving around plus running a busy bistro..

I suspect if the next big storyline isn't county lines related it soon will be, fall back position being another curable health issue..

Other than that in the last year we've seen lesbian stories, gay, violence and loan sharking, murder and body burials, there surely aren't any other topical stories left, unless she's got plastic bag poisoning somehow or a bad case of global warming disease?
And I'll be watching it again tomorrow lol!

Ah so they are closing off that one. Years ago storylines did tend to run and run, maybe she was undecided if leaving the show perhaps.

And Johnny's MS has not only disappeared , it never caused him the slightest inconvenience. Close to my heart , as a very good friend had it and it was horrible.

Also Robert the chef is still banned but driving.
I’m sure Steve McDonald was ill a while back - now ok.
Where’s Devs son ?
Sean was homeless for no reason now fine for no reason.

It’s just so lightweight and fractious, maybe I’m just getting older and see through it all.

You're right. Steve had depression. Just gone, just like that.

I'm surprised no wandering dog hasn't dug up Rick. It was a public park, and he's only about 12 inches below the surface. Any self-respecting gun dog would have sniffed the corpse from half a mile away.

Looked like the late Alvin Stardust in the Rovers tonight.

Sean's flounce is starting to irritate me. After he's taken an order, he always turns on his heels and flicks his head up in a stereotypical gay flounce. No need Sean - we know.

We were just saying a few nights ago that his flounce is getting far more pronounced, which makes him even more annoying.

Indeed, it was amusing at first (three years ago), but it's getting tiresome, a bit like Steve Wright's serious jockin' (no g) Friday afternoon Radio 2 slot.

Give it a rest ffs!

Robert will be wearing the M6 out between Weatherfield and Stoke at this rate...Oh wait!, he isn't really going, I forgot.

What made me laugh was the other week when Robert convinced her not to go to that awards evening and then he arrives at the venue followed by her and her son 30 seconds behind him. Not only did the both of them manage to get ready immediately they also managed to arrive at almost the same time despite her not having a car.

And she's supposed to live in Macclesfield isn't she?

True haha. Everyone owns a TARDIS.

And those comments about Sean's flounce. Couldn't agree more. It's been irritating me for ages. I've never met a gay person who actually acts like that. He's more like Greg Davies doing his 'camp aisle'.

Steve was really good yesterday. Usually he excels in comedic role but in the funeral home scenes with Emma, he was excellent.

Yes, I think he's underrated as an actor.
