Coronation Street [News, Spoilers and Discussion] contd

Gemma and Craigy might be a good fit. Bethany certainly does not deserve him. Gemma is quite pretty, just a bit chavvy in her ways but a nice guy like Craigy would calm her down.

I don't think I'd like Ches and Gemma to get together. Soaps tend to couple every one off. Michelle and Robert are acting like a 20 year married couple and she's not even divorced a year. They're good mates...they should stay that way.

I was full sure there would have been more about Phelan. But i guess theyre keeping it all for next week.

I get the feeling that these episodes should have been aired over Christmas? Or at least before or something. The scenes don't seem to gel or flow. I wonder did either Brunos departure throw everything out of kilter with new scenes or did they want to extend passed Christmas so they're wedging previously shot scenes into new ones?

I also couldn't give a hoot about Rana and Katie. In fact if Katie stayed wherever she is I wouldn't miss her at all. Rana sure is manipulative isn't she? If they're trying to paint her like a confused love bird, her sly miserable glances aren't carrying it across :pac:

Bethany. How many times is she going to hide stuff from her mum? The bullying, diet pills, Nathan and now this. So over her and her mother issues.

What age is she suppose to be? She's 31 in real life. I know she's immature in her ways but she's still quite a bit older than Craig I would think.

When does this new male rape storyline with David start? I'm not looking forward to this at all, probably give the whole thing a miss til it's over. He's moany and sulky at the best of times, I can't imagine him after this...Jesus, first Bethany and now David. What next, David the dog gets caught up in a bestiality storyline?!!!

This is something that gets me about Coronation Street - all that sleeping around and ne'er a menton of an STD! They did at least one storyline in 'Emmerdale' which dealt with HIV. They managed it very well, illustrating the panic which ensues when one in a group has been diagnosed as positive - others having to be tested, etc. 'HIV Val' setting up her support blog was actually quite funny.

Faye's on-again-off-again boyfriend, Seb, was diagnosed HIV positive during his hospital stay after the fall that Anna is accused of causing.

I would imagine that was caused by a dirty needle and not STD?

Marias flat must be huge, theres herself and Liam, Beth Kirk and Craig and now Sinead - where are they all sleeping :rolleyes:

Chesney is some cold hearted creature.

Wahey "madison" now gets poor Craigy in trouble.

How old is Bethany? Are there not age regulations for working in these clubs?

pjohnson

Craig is better off without her.

Who's going to stumble across Eva's positive pregnancy test?

Why does Anna not tell Eileen about Phelan raping Nicola's mother, so to contact Nicola

She tried contacting Nicola, but couldn't find her. She thinks she's in Australia. Only for David's girlfriend told her she wasn't Eileen wouldn't have tried looking her up online.

It depends whose empty waste basket she throws it into, leaving it in the open for anybody to see.

Leanne will find it, think it's Toyah's, she'll burst into tears and blame it all on Eva and her piggin' pregnancy test.

Topping and tailing..

Why didn't Luke tell Alya about his concerns about Andy and Phelan?
Why didn't Eileen ask Alya who **** (I can't remember the name) was who she mentioned Phelan had a row with. It was the friend of Luke's who Phelan paid that time to say he's heard from Luke.
Why is Anna so aggressive with Eileen when she's visiting instead of speaking calmly to her. She's an idiot! All she succeeds in doing is coming across as an unbalanced crazy woman.

Anna's always had that problem, from disapproving of Faye's choices to trying to convince people of Phelan's shenanigans, her intention is fine but she sneers, barks, tells people they'll be sorry without explaining why, and generally rambles and thrashes like a woman deranged so noone takes her seriously.

I thought Pat would have had a tracker on Eileens phone and know she went to the prison

Saw a spoiler regarding Luke's funeral!

The police turn up and might make an arrest!

was wondering that too....
I like Peter but I hate the way he always picks on Leanne re Simons bad behaviour...Like hes back on the street himself about 6 months now and doesn't spend anytime with his son.Also its no wonder 'Sigggh's' the way he is with Peters history!
