No problem, from my limited understanding of different religions (I'm not religious myself), Muslims only eat Halal meat & don't eat pork at all, Jews only eat Kosher meat & again don't eat pork at all, Hindus don't eat beef although I believe eat all other meats & they don't necessarilly have to be Halal, Catholics supposedly only eat fish on a Friday.

They should all become vegetarians, would save confusion for everyone Wink

You'd think but I know in Judaism you have to get Kosher bread/cheese etc. Not sure about Islam and Hinduism...

Ah, I see. Well I would recommend becoming an atheist-- but one wouldn't get any holidays Wink

Nice to see a more light-hearted story line for change, with Audrey pulling that prank on her friends. Is John Thompson still doing Kingdom, or has that now been cancelled by ITV?

I think when the producer was on This Morning she said they won't be doing another live episode as they have already done it

Well 50 years ahead if you look at it like that.

I imagine the reason they wont be doing it is that it will get compared to EastEnders effort.

25 years ahead if you are looking at the time they have been on screen, but I meant almost 10 years ahead cos Corrie did an hour long live episode for their 40th so if anything EE have copied them - anyway im not going to get into a Corrie Vs EE debate.

I have really enjoyed Corrie this week - I thought the scenes between Gail, David and Tina last night were really strong scenes - cant wait to see what happens on Monday now that the body has been found.

Also found Audrey's scenes with Lewis really amusing.

I was referring the the fact Corrie did their first ever live episodes when it started!

Kingdom has been cancelled by ITV. John Thomson has also now left Coronation Street.
