Ray wants to scam David out of his house is that right? Like why?

Does the Bistro, Webster’s garage and Platts house form a row? Maybe wants to develop the whole site?

That would be my thinking to.

No doubt his plans won’t go ahead in the end.

The factory is in between Websters and Platts though. Does the factory have a back door onto the road at the back of Websters?

If memory serves me, Mike Baldwins factory took up the land from the factory down to the hair dressers.

I think that you’re right. Also the Kabin is in that area.

Does Gary own Kevin's burnt second garage premises for his furniture house clearances?

When they were in the hotel and Shona said she was hungry I thought she would pick up one of the fake apples or pears on the bar and try to eat it

Here’s a map to give a clearer picture of layout

I keep on thinking of the Heather story in Fair City.

Bob liked the Lesbians.

Speaking of property, can anyone shed light on these:

- Who owns the builders yard currently? Gary failed in the business but I don't recall him selling the property to anyone?

- Apparently there is an IT company operating out of the downstairs of the house in which Adam Barlow uses the upstairs. Has this ever factored into any plot?

- It bugs me immensely that with all the house swapping, cramped space, etc that there's a full two-storey house on the street that has NEVER been occupied by any characters in the entire run of the show. 12 Victoria Street, it shares the row with Roy's, the community centre and the Victoria Court apartments. Sarah and Gary, Steve and Tracey, and Claudia have all talked about buying it in recent years but that's it, unless I'm mistaken? If Ray wants another spot in the area to start a business, he could have that instead of devising some Dick Dastardly shenanigans with a sinkhole.

As another poster said, how exactly does one trigger a man made sinkhole. Especially, just one guy with no heavy machinery and in a way which no-one saw or heard anything?

You'd wonder how whats his name, found a person with those kind of skills. Its not like he could put an ad in the Weatherfield Echo:
Wanted: experienced civil engineer for dastardly plot. For more information call Dick Dastardly, Coronation Street. No time wasters please.

Shona is really starting to grate on me. The finding random things hilarious is tiring. Even David seemed to be getting fed up of her.

Aside from a silhouette in a buggy have we ever actually seen Oliver? Sounds like he's a goner. Handled very poorly by the doctor IMO.

But they've just done the whole Steve has a child he doesn't know about thing with Emma.

It just seemed strange that they had to get that little mention of their one date in. There must have been a reason for it. Poor Nick if I'm right!

According to ITV, the Baileys bought it from Jason Grimshaw.

did I miss something? who did David ring to come look at the sinkhole or did your man just wander in the side gate?

I was wondering that myself, how did he manage to ring the guy that's in cahoots with Ray ?

He said he was going to ring the water board! But surely if he did that and Ray's guy fluked it with the timing someone from the water board would have turned up later. Unless Ray's guy is a dodgy water board employee but even then what are the chances of it being hom that answered David's call!

I think we can all agree, the holes in this plot are bigger than the one in Davids back garden.

Ray is a major hotelier, he wants to build a hotel on that part of the street and add to his chain, having assessed the market through running the bistro.

How about the skeleton which is in the ground at Platts' house? Are they not all concerned that will be uncovered in all this or are there not enough brain cells to do the worrying? Shona did clumsily mention a body, I'm guessing this will unearth soon.

That was unearthed some time ago when Tyrone crashed into Platts house. It was pinned on Jason’s now departed Dad

You raise a good point. Ray has a 5 star hotel in town, why does he want a crappy three star on a residential street in a suburb?

The Oliver storyline should have been cancelled & Yasmines one put out of its misery! What an awful madam Devs daughter is, didn’t the in she was always like that?
