Like his Manc accent. Pay close attention and you hear his very proper accent slip through sometimes.

When and why did Craig and Faye break up? They only got together recently.

I think Faye gave him the cold shoulder after she slept with Ray at the wine tasting session.

Without Corey, more friendships with Nina and Amy

Seconded; she needs to ditch that smarmy little scut and have some storylines that don't revolve around her either being victimised or having tantrums with her family. Similar to Roy's lecture to Simon earlier in the week.

If Aadi, Asha, Nina, Amy, Max, Summer and Simon are going to be the next generation of adult characters leading their own stories, since their respective parents aren't going anywhere, now's the time to lay the groundwork on making them more fleshed out characters so that the storylines can evolve beyond a cycle of affairs and money problems.

Craig's mouth is always hanging open.. Maybe he has a blocked nose I dunno but I find it distracting.
Adam was lying on the counter and looked out for the count. He didn't look like he was alert enough to smell whiskey off his attacker's breath. It wasn't that dark either. Dunno how she mistook Ray for Adam. If doesn't make sense that she'd venture back in there either. Far more believable that Simon did it.

And how did Adam mistake Faye for Peter? I know she smelled of whiskey but come on!

He was drunk, it was dark and only got the smell of whiskey no clear or partial sight of who whacked him

Yes but as soon as he regained consciousness he blamed Peter. He was sure of it.

Adam only picked Gary for Sarah, even Daniel knows it's a lie, I can see Maria outing Faye and Ray

U mean Fray..........:p

Why did Fay smell like Irish whiskey?
Was Ray giving it to her to try and get her drunk?
As an aside, nearly every man in soapland cracks open a bottle of whiskey when they are upset- it isn't even that popular of a drink anymore like.

pjohnson

Oh fcuk off Faye.

Max Headroom

An unwelcome prick in the night......:D

I bet Ray slept with the blonde one heading the meeting

Fay said she drank Tim's whiskey

If Ray is such a successful and rich businessman why has chosen a poky little office in the back of a rinky-dink bistro in a run-down backstreet as his base
Especially when everyone in the area hates his guts.

He has loads of hotels too

He had a big office in his hotel at the start didn't he?
I don't understand why he upped sticks and moved himself into a broom cupboard in the back of the bistro.
Also it seems the only way to the office is through the bistro so not practical either.

That's another good point.
Where would the boss's presence be more required?
a) In a large busy, hotel.
b) In a tiny backstreet bistro which hasn't had a customer in months?

Everyone takes off their mask to talk to each other :mad:
Even PC Craig!

Probably the mosy tedious episodes in a while. Who cares about any of this planning stuff.

I like that, in fair city they are always wearing them, I just switch it off now, personally not interested if I cant see the facial expressions. If I wanted what would then basically be a podcast I would go to Spotify. There keeping their two meter distance anyway and there's generally a max of 3 in each scene, all looks good to me

Faye

tells Tim the truth as she thinks she might be pregnant by Ray, Tim goes to see Gary then

Jikashi

I think the virgin media player was stuck on loop.
Either that or there were literally three separate useless filler scenes that played exactly the same exchange.

Faye: waah how dare u arrest me crim bro u snake etcetera.
Craig: Why do think Gary didn't do it?
Faye: I KNOW he didn't do it *stares*
Craig: HOW do you know?
Faye: (looks guilty as hell and visibly struggles and tremors not to blurt it out)
Craig: (eyes gloss over to the sound of cogs creaking and grinding as they turn in his head)
