Coronation Street

Wonder if we'll find out later, via Ashley & Claire receiving a phone call, whether Shelley gets pregnant by Charlie?

What has Frankie done to herself? It looked like a different actress last night! Has she had some sort of cosmetic surgery whilst in Spain?

I hope Shelly goes out with a bang and not a whimper. I fear that her revelations to Tracey will backfire - I want to see her walk away with a naughty smile on her face because Tracey and Charlie really deserve taking down a peg or two at the moment, there needs to be some balance to their nastyness.

Does Craig come back, i head that his exit storyline is for September. Ive always thought that Craig will do something to the house, as revenge on Charlie - maybe leave the water running, or turn the gas on that would crumble their house, and the Platts - lead to a massive rescue operation.

Yes but I only buy them when they have Corrie covers dont forget No really i do get Whats on TV every week regardless of who's on it, but I do get other tv guides if they have Corrie covers/info as well. This week I got TV Times for the Corrie babies special plus the Bill Roache article at the end. Shocked to see Whats on TV had a Corrie cover not once but two weeks running (and rightly so IMO)

Frankie looks a a movie star, she looks very different, like she's had some nip tuck done, looks very refresh.

I think the pin has dropped the for Charlie now I'm glad the Ashley and Clarie/Matt storyline is claming down a little, It got slightly boring.

Blimey, i go away for a week and all hell has broken loose on the Corrie thread!

Havent seen Corrie this week apart from a bit, as ive been up North but look forward to seeing the omnibus tommorow, saw a bit with Charlie and Shelly on Monday night - cant be too harsh on Shelly actually, sometimes when you break up with someone no matter how badly they treat you or how much you hate them you can end up wanting them again and stlll love them no matter how twisted it might seem, ive been there.

Anyway, yesterday I was outside Granada and met some of the cast! I met Betty Driver and had a chat with her (she stopped for me in her car) and she signed an autograph. She seems lovely and really friendly. Met Tina O Brien who was also in her car driving out of the studios, she had her dog in the car with her, had a brief chat with her too (no autograph as she was in a rush). Tina was also really nice. Also met Zarrah Abrahams (twice) who plays Joanne, and briefly met Helen Worth but she was catching a lift with someone from the crew so she couldnt stop. Other than that I saw a few drive past including William Tarmey, Tupele Dorgu and Simon Gregson but didnt actually meet those.

Didnt meet Barbara Knox or Sally Whittaker unfortunately but I was chatting to some other fans outside the gates and this bloke told me that Barbara Knox never stops for fans

Whilst in Manchester I was also in the studio audience for a pilot for a new sketch show, didnt get near the Corrie set though sadly , they took us in through the gates on Water Street and into the bonded warehouse which is the audience waiting area, and then across past the replica of the Rovers Return and into the studios. Price is Right was apparently filming in the next studio. It was interesting from a tv presentation point of view to see how they film stuff.

Anyway back on topic and I think Craig does come back, no idea if Keith does though.

It's A Clipboard!

She was pregnant? Blimey they covered that up well

Congratulations Jane!

At least we know she's finally gone on maturnity leave now!

Oh do keep up at the back.

I was being sarcastic. My dog could tell she was pregnant....and he's dead.

It was the worst pregnancy cover up in soap history.
