In the first clip, my OH asked if Billy was having a pee. Strange, but I was thinking the same!

Jesus that was a brutal episode

It really was dreadful.
The halving of the episodes per week has dragged out some of the more cretinous stories and the quality of writing has been really poor.

Adam and Sarah? I really don't care (if I ever did).
Likewise Shona and David, Daniel and Prossie Lady, Gemma and the quads. Abi and the twins, Seb and Alina.

I DO like Gemma's mother, Jenny (even though they give her nothing to do, despite her impeccable comic timing). I am sorry Bev Callard is off our screens (another actress very rarely given anything substantial to do, though when she was she showed she was a really good actress), I approve heartily of sex-god Devendra's beard. I like Nina and her apron. I wish Geoff would get his comeuppance soon.

Of the oldies, I'm glad that old ham Rita is off screen, though I miss Roy.

They are messing around with times and channels, thinking it was on virgin media 2 due to the football

One of the worst ever. The park surveillance was just painful. Sean was cringeworthy.

A bottle of morphine wouldn't be just wheeled around in a trolley like that and left to be taken. It's a controlled drug.

Fair play to Craig, he looks great after the weight loss

Ah, but, they were filmed alone for the following scenes.

Another rubbish episode, Abi now a junkie again since Friday, she beats Billy's record for becoming a heroin addict within a week.

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, I JUST WANT TO SEE GEOFF GET HIS COMEUPPANCE. :mad:

I'm totally with you on this. I was fast forwarding Abi and would have done the same for the mother of the invisible quads ( a toaster! Come off it Chesney. ) but there wouldn't have been much left to watch.

JP Liz V1

Has Mary or Sean contacted Eileen or Jason about Todd yet instead his ex Billy reports him missing

Ann22

Haven't watched last night's episode. Can't face another addiction storyline. Abi annoys me with her stupid rash self destruct actions. Fcuk sake.

Ann22

Watched it. No I didn't miss much. Billy so concerned about Todd...It's daft..sure he's a grown man and Craig verified he was alive up to recently. He's clearly still holding a candle. Rows ahead with Paul...(sighs in sad resignation). That was silly too the other night with Billy, Sean and Mary watching the garden. Billy was standing facing the wall like he was pissing.
This Daniel/call girl thing...is he going to develop a fixation on her? A possibly different angle on a stalker storyline maybe? Might be good to watch.

Post Covid-19, how do they do scenes with Daniel and the escorts? He can't pay them anymore to lie on Sinead's jumper.

I don’t think it’s anything to COVID, he actually said from day 1 he’s no interest in having sex. The escort even said to him the last day why is he paying her just to talk when he should just talk to his friends or family.

So are sex workers exempt from the 2 metre rule?.......asking for a friend.

I get that I mean he has been lying on yer wan Nicky wearing Sinead's jumper. So what now as the actors have to social distance so does she or the new one sit in a chair across the room with the jumper on? She'll look like Ronnie Corbett.

Maybe she'll wear the jumper so she can sniff it later.

He made her dinner the other night and she wore the cardigan while they ate didn't she?

I'm not focusing correctly and I thought I clicked into the Phil Hogan thread and I was like. Who did he make dinner for?
I suppose he could his George Foreman.

JP Liz V1

When did Johnny return?

bubbles o hara

I know we should be kind because of the filming restrictions imposed by covid, but dear God, recent episodes have been brutal. I detest Gemma. She moans constantly, Chesney gurns, lather, rinse, repeat. I like Paul and I'm even warming to Bernie. Couldn't care less about Abbie.

Am I the only one who hates Sean and Mary? :mad:
Rant over.

freshpopcorn

I was never gone on Sean but I suppose they wanted an over the top gay character.
One character I'd ax for certain would be Brian.

Yeah he asked and Peter said he's renting somewhere around the corner, Johnny pulled a face which Peter questioned but Johnny just kind of brushed it off. I'm surprised I caught all that because I am usually fairly tuned out!

Is Daniel actually having a video chat with a prostitute about walking with his son. Toya Battersby the counsellor is meanwhile kicking her heels

And Virgin have wânked the schedule again. Todays episode just ended.

And for someone who recently had an operation. The polish would have been whipped off quicksmart in theatre.

Seems to be a lot of love for Paul, I don't like Paul, never have.

Did Abi call Kevin's sister Annie Lennox? Was that mentioned before? She does look like her alright! I hope she stays, I live a gossipy character. Reminds me of Margi Clarke too Tyrone's mother.

She did call her Annie Lennox, I think it was mentioned on this thread, when she first appeared, years ago, before it was mentioned on Corrie.
