And for those of you that watch Corrie on Granada Plus, I think we reach the end of 1992 next week as im certain these storylines happen at the end of 1992.

Monday 16th Feb - Alf is rushed to hospital
Tuesday 17th Feb - Martin regrets the night before
Wednesday 18th Feb - Mike meets his son for the first time and Martin is tormented by Carmel
Thursday 18th Feb - Alma is furious
Friday 19th Feb - Mike is stunned when Ken turns him away from Maggie's house, and Des has an emotional reunion with Lisa in Blackpool.

Also next Wednesday 18th Feb we have a special about Karen/Steve on ITV2 at 8pm


Wow it sounds really good, I havent seen these before so they sound very interesting, you can tell it is coming to Christmas 1992 as people have started putting the decorations up, it was very funny with the whole Mother Claus at Betterbuys, simply because they didn't want Percy Sugden as Santa. Good to see that Carmel is now getting more mental?

BTW What has Martin done that he regrets? It sounds really good, I know they sleep together on Christmas Day, or is that earlier?



******SPOILERS FOR GRANADA PLUS EPISODES************

God its weird writing spoilers for such old storylines Laughing

Yes I saw the storylines back in 1992 buts its good to see them all again, IIRC Martin doesnt sleep with Carmel, but Alf is taken ill so Gail goes to stay with Audrey and Carmel goes to bed in Martin's bed, so a drunken Martin comes home and thinking its Gail in the bed gets in too - so he is horrified the following day. Apparently Carmel tries to say Martin slept with her and that she is pregnant, but Gail and her end up having a row at the top of a stair case and in a struggle Gail accidently throws her down the stairs. Turns out she is mentally ill and goes back to Ireland.

Also Des and Lisa get together, but Lisa is killed in February 1993 after being knocked down by a car outside the rovers.

Tracy tells Ken that Mike is Marks father, Ken is upset as he hates Mike and tells Maggie the reason he hates him is cos he had an affair with Deirdre. Tracy tells Mark he is Mike's son, in revenge for this Maggie tells Tracy that Deirdre and Mike had an affair in 1983.

*********END OF Granada Plus SPOILERS***********

Meanwhile, in Inside Soap for next week its says "Todd confides in Karl about kissing Nick - where will it lead?"


Cheers for the info Jez, I have seen the clip of Martin getting into bed with Carmel on the Christmas DVD, so I assumed it was sometime soon. The throwing down the stairs thing sounds very good. Though I can't remember this storyline (I am only 17) I can seem to remember when Lisa got knocked down, for some reason it has stuck in my mind.

Yes I was only 11 when these episodes aired, but some things do stick in your mind, I remember stuff as far back as the Mid/Late 80s. Its good Granada Plus have done a re-run

Did anyone watch the Tracy Barlow special on ITV2 tonight? I thought it was very good, the other cast members certainly have a high opinion of Kate. She was very good in tonights episode as well.

Yup, I saw both of the programmes tonight and the ITV2 one was very good, it was done in the same way as Corrie Secrets. There were some good clips of old Corrie, well not too old. Though you can't believe that there was going to be a storyline where Tracy slept with Peter and could have ended up being pregnant by Peter too.

Back to the current storyline....
On my "realism" high horse again, Roy and Hayley struggled to the limit when they had to find £10k just over six months ago. Now they have come up with £15k for Tracey as easy as anything. I want a share in Roy's Rolls. A Cafe that can make £15k in six months, earning him £30k a year after tax must be a pretty lucrative business indeed!

I hate Inside Soap now - Soaplife has relaunched and is fortnightly now and I prefer that to Inside Soap.

Also... I am extremely fed up with ITV1's crap website for Corrie - so, I've decided to set up a new one. I've made most of the graphics and menu, it's very basic, but looks quite nice.

Anyone with basic/advanced HTML knowledge please help, it'd be nice to get a group of people together to get it up and running.

I like Inside Soap again atm, they gave Corrie as cover this week Very Happy Its weekly so has more storylines featured and I always get it every week.
I hate Soaplife, never buy that crap, whenever ive seen it it always has an EE cover, although as its from the same people as Whats on TV, why doesnt that surpise me! Evil or Very Mad Soaplife is going fortnightly and copying Inside Soap as they went from monthly to fortnightly.

However I did notice today a brand new soap monthly magazine called "Into Soap" - it had a Kate Ford cover so its getting off to a good start Laughing

It would be great to have a decent Corrie website and message board. Go on you for trying to set one up. Let me know if I can do anything to help.

Take a Look

Thats my initial ideas.

Feel free to sign up at the message board.

Jez, do you have MSN messenger? If you do, and are not worried about giving me your address, PM it to me, and we can talk about it some more? If you are interested in helping, that'd be great, as I've always admired you as a fanatic of Corrie (and if I rightly remember, Jack P Shephard! lol)

Website looks good Sirthaw!

I can't help it, but I've turned against Roy and especially Haley - their behaviour was appaling last night. Now I know Tracey has been a real bitch to them, and only we know Roy isn't the real father, but oooohh, grrrrr, it made me cross!
