Coronation Street [News, Spoilers and Discussion] contd

Why is Tim sleeping on the couch? That house has at least one unused bedroom.

Last week Johnny was told to stay in the "spare room". They live in a B&B, do they not have a number of extra bedrooms?

Does she even remember Lily that David lets her babysit :rolleyes:

All so over played, losing ones memory hardly makes one forget how to be human. Reminds me of a movie I can't recall name of it, where guy is from another planet and takes everything literally.

I feel a bit sorry for Dev with Asha back with Corey and hearing Ches and Cathy angry of losing their jobs

When did Toyah start working at the knicker factory Underworld in the office, there is Sarah, Nick, Carla and Alina in the office, is it that busy

Mr Bean is a bit like that...think it’s actually implied he’s an alien too.

Shona acts normal like she remembers one moment and then no filter another acting like a bratty rude teenager

I think David has more chemistry with Nina, Davina should happen

Jikashi

I don't blame Dev one bit for getting mad. The cocky little shthd who caused his daughter's abuse is sitting in his living room and he brags to Dev's face that he was making out with Asha and tries to goad a fight. And he's generally horrible to others including Alya, Nina and Asha herself. His smarmy punchability will hopefully not be around for long. Seb was similar when he first joined the show but at least they wrote in his difficult backstory and his desire to protect the people he loves was established pretty quickly.

Where does Dev's money go? He has three (?) businesses and to say his house is modest is an understatement. Even his front door is crappy? I assume he has a Merc parked on top of Chesney's Volvo for the journey from the chipper to the shop. His kids are only in private school a short while. Has he got a cocaine habit?

Geoff taught Tim magic tricks but not to read and write?

Great acting by Tim and Geoff tonight.

RobertKK

Finally...

Great acting all round.

Poor Tim. That was well acted.

JP Liz V1

Go Tim, great episode

Sally is a great character.
She has notions about herself, but a heart of gold.

I love her belief in Yasmeen and snooping to get to the truth

Faye was also good tonight

I thought David was the best part.

I've lost track of Corrie a bit. My sky was down, and I stayed witha relative for a while who doesnt watch it. I've not watched anything since about May, it doesn't feel like I missed much...

Does anyone else find Shona suddenly laughing a bit creepy or strange? The forced laugh doesn't help.

Edit: Faye has really grown up and grown into the role.

JP Liz V1

I've no interest in David and Shona, they just don't work as a couple imho

I love David, but him and Shona really did work. However this new angle to the story is just terrible.

Friends used to take the pi$$ out of Days of Our Lives, by mentioning a story like this. "She wakes up, but she has amnesia.." Ooowoo!

Jikashi

YES, TIM, YES!

Great job by Joe Duttine too. He's brought the character so far since he fist rocked up on the street as a deadbeat sponge who made no effort with Faye after he convinced her to move away from Anna.

I wonder if, now that Geoff has lost his strongest backer, as well as Faye, will he drop the nice guy act altogether and fight open and dirty.

I really, REALLY hope it doesn't play out that Yasmeen gets acquitted and Geoff just disappears. Karmic retribution is what the audience wants after such a long story arc. Not a deadly final showdown, that's been done too much with Tony Gordon and Pat Phelen and John Stape and Frank Foster and Rick Neelan and Callum Logan.

More like a reversal of all the gaslighting he's been doing to the street, including gathering sympathy from people who have struggled with challenges he made up like with Peter and Tyrone.

I am away at the moment with crappy internet! Can someone give me a summary of what happened last night?? Sounds like I missed a good one!

Sally, in her infinite wisdom, twigged that there might be footage of the security camera on Geoffs laptop. Sally took it from Yasmeens house, and was threatened by Geoff for being in the house. Sally somehow twigged Geoffs password, as you do. Sally found no incriminating evidence against Geoff. Just as she gave in, and decided that Geoff wasn't abusing Yasmeen, Fay returned. She went into Geoffs photos, and found the incident after jiggle it Geoff, where he filmed himself abusing Yasmeen on his phone. Sally took the laptop to the police. Tim finally confronted his dad, and shopped him to the police.

An hour of Corrie tonight so 2 hours of soaps from 7.

Edit: That applies to ITV. Virgin overlaps Enders.
