Does anyone think Gail will change her name from Mrs Hillman back to what is was Confused:


I think she should but she was hardly happily married to her first two husbands Brian Tilsley and Martin Platt was she


What about her maiden name? She'd be Gail Potter again.


Yeah I remember now her maiden name - Gail and deirdre arew the only character to have 4 surnames I think?

Deirdre Hunt Langton Barlow Rachid!

Even Elsie Tanner didnt have more names than them!

Des Barnes married 7 times I think? Only he wouldn't have to change his surname obviously ...

Last nights episodes were so good - I think I can understand Vera's point about the money Richard "invested" for them but I can also understand Gail's point too.

I also cant believe that creep Dev - I hope Tracey gets revenge on him. I bet she can play dirty. I quite like Tracey now - she is a great character to have in the show.

And Maria looked nice in last nights ep too! Cant say the same for Candice and her new hair Razz

Yes but Elsie married two men called Tanner and she was never Grimshaw on screen.

She was always Elsie Tanner - apart from 1973-1978 when she was married to Alan Howard and she was credited as Elsie Howard.

I think Gail and Mike are then only characters to marry 4 times - Ken, Deirdre, Elsie all married 3 times.

I got this info from a Corrie website btw. Oh and I had to laugh in a recent Classic Corrie on G+ from 1991 - Audrey told Gail she'd had enough heartbreak in her life what with Brian being killed etc but that nothing compaired Richard Hillman!

Btw I wonder if the Grimshaw family are relations of Elsie Tanner as they share Elsie's maiden name.

I wish they'd get rid of Roy and Harold. Also Candice and Maria. And Dev, Peter Barlow and Tracey.

Its Roy and Hayley M DR

Well I dont like Roy, Candice, Joe or Dev so they can get rid of all of them.

They can keep Maria, Peter and Tracey.

Elsie did live at No.11, and the Grimshaws now live at No.11... Very Happy

Maybe they could write it into the script that Eileen is Elsie's niece?

I have missed quite a bit of Corrie this week, so not sure on whats what yet.

Just to ask, I have not missed the Vera Brick through Window or Vera Purple Hair do dar yet have I?

I hope not, or I will be quite mad. If they have not been on yet, when are these two storylines going to happen? Is it due this week coming?
