Coronation Street [News, Spoilers and Discussion] contd

Ann22

What a great character Hope is! An actual psychopath..years of storylines ahead with her. Unless she's carted off to kiddie prison like Bobby Beale.

When Jenny got tasered there wasn't a sinner around. Last night it was like the cobbles are in the shadow of Old Trafford on matchday.

The fire is arson and possibly attempted murder so surely handed over to CID not the local and I mean local plod.

April and Hope are miles apart on screen. But April in Emmerdale, and Hope in Corrie are sisters in real life.

Both good little actresses

Their brother plays Joseph

Surely the old Residents' Association sees the need for extensive CCTV on the street? Every single week the police and or ambulance pays a visit. It would have picked up yer one setting off and lighting that fire.

Didn't John Stape carry some sort of carpet with a dead body rolled inside?

The kidnapping of that young fella with the glasses into a van in broad daylight? Shona destroying some public hydrant or whatever recently.

Todd trying to break into yer man's builders' yard to steal that pump.

When David was practicing for the Olympics he was running like crazy around the place followed by fellas who wanted to thrash him.

The young fella breaking into Billy's place .

Sure the list goes on.

Edit: Spoilers didn't work.

Craig is investigating the fire and going door to door investigating the hit and run. Busy boy.

Craig is the only cop working from home. He is that busy on the street, all he has to do is roll out of bed, and he's at work.

When did Ryan and Daisy become an offical couple, he seemed surprised and surely she ate before in Speed Daal

I was about to post the same thing, it felt like I missed a couple of episodes between that and Shona/Todd hit and run scene that we didn't see any build up to

Is Fizz in a bedsit with Hope - crazy storyline too

I think Fizz is in the witness protection flat from the drug gang storyline.

Monday's episode opened with David and Shona in a panic about some accident?

Was an episode missed?

It felt like that to me but it just happened offscreen.

Yes I thought I had missed an episode. I suppose it saved on special effects.

Good to see they are getting good use out of their hospital set. I wonder who will be next to need a bed?

donkeykong5

So any idea who set the 🔥 fire in the flat?

Well people online are saying the Alina may have some type of personality disorder and did it herself apart from that Hope!

What about the woman just released from prison?

Alice1

Well we did see Hope going in to the flat and a bottle of nail polish remover was front of screen. And, the "Emily Bronntasaurus" turned up in her toybox together with the keys to the flat.....

Weatherfield detectives...'well, looking at that evidence, it must be Fizz that did it, or possibly Rita'.

Immortal Starlight

Daisy is extremely irritating.

Ann22

I too thought I'd missed an episode! Know what annoys me a lot? The way Craig is the copper involved in every case. Over here, the guards are stationed well away from their hometown, at least when newly qualified...Here the way Craig refers to Todd as Todd Grimshaw sounds preposterous. Everyone there knows who Todd is. I love the show but the area inconsistencies annoy me. Craig from the actual street is working around the corner in the Wetherfield barracks...and the way it's confined to such a small area yet they refer to localities as a taxi journey away, yet are literally a stone's throw away, ruin the reality of it for me. One scene has a character running to the Red Wreck in 5 mins and the next ..Ah they have an alibi, they were at the Red Wreck.

Ann22

Can I just add that I can't drag my eyes away from Craig's ears? I'd like to scrunch them up in my fists. They look soft and maleable.

Ps Todd is great onscreen. He is a joy to watch.

Lennox Gilbey

Tyrone is a prick. Alina was right to call the entire Manchester police force. Ty should sort out psycho kid and support his partner. Hopefully she dumps him soon.

Shakyfan

It's the Red Rec (as in recreation park) - not Wreck! Lost count of the number of times I've seen it typed incorrectly over the years!

CollyFlower

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117749923#Comment_117749923

Could be an intentional typo and it probably is a wreck anyway, don't be stressing over it.

Since when has the soup kitchen been in the street?

Shakyfan

Who's stressing? Just pointing it out. Last time I checked this was a public forum.

I didn't know this ' til now! I imagined there was some kind of memorial from a Tudor era ship sinkage plonked in the middle of the park..now I declare that from this day forth, I shall join your league in making the name of the Red Rec become known. Ps I passionately loved Shakin' Stevens (despite the cringey name!) from the days when "This Ole House"topped the charts and his image was my first wall poster..so I shall accept your little rap on my knuckles! :)

Ann22

Alina actress is woeful.

Know what else annoys me? "Victoria Gardens" is like 4 ft square. It's daft all the events that occur here!...Now the soup kitchen is on the same street! It's like the whole township of Wetherfield is right there within a radius of 200mtrs.

gammygils

Now Todd has a scar on his cheek just like the original Todd

Ann22

Feck sake, Billy. Try and control yourself!
