Coronation Street

About time really - although it would be better for them to use the credit crunch as an excuse, although Corrie being Corrie it'll be a story that plays out for a couple of episodes before the status quo is resumed - which is a shame, because it would be good for the character to move them away from their usual setting.

KEN? Gail? there never seem to be killed.

To be fair, they're pretty accurate more often than not. And in this case, it seems pretty plausible given the storyline already seems to be heading that way.

That's because you can only do it once

PS: Unless you're Harold Bishop or Dirty Den... not thought that through have I?

Of course it will. Like that time Jack and Vera sensationally split up... for about 2 episodes

I'm surprised The Sun bothered with the bit about Betty not actually leaving, they'd usually leave that bit out to create a better story

oh no, Tony thinks religion is for weak people

that will give the 34 bored Christians something else to complain about

Betty is a great character and has been in the show nearly 40 years - the Rovers without Betty just wouldn't be the same.

have the corry writer never seen football players AFTER a football match, particularly children's football matches

not only was Joshua sparklingly clean but so were his boots

and they've abandoned Freddie again, or maybe Casy's looking after him

and I thought Steve told Amy her Mam was in prison when she first went inside
(looked back through the corry posts and didn't find any mention if it)

found a few comments by tvsouthwest about our arcane child acting laws

It's a shame there were only 8 minutes of decent Corrie in Friday's episodes - I had to skip through all the Dev scenes, as usual.

It was nice to see that Jack has a 'new friend' which will hopefully provide some good storylines for him. He needed someone other than 'Tyr-olly' to interact with.

Is it my imagination, or is Dierdre's cackle getting worse? It wouldn't go amiss in the cauldron scene in Macbeth!

Not too mention Jack's cock/pigeon joke.

I'm sure I've seen Jack's female friend in Coro before... played a wife of one of Jack's pigeon-fancying mates if I recall? It's starting to bug me now

She's played 4 different characters in Corrie over the years.

I suppose this is the storyline to
