Looks like Oliver has some voluntary movement after all because he apparently just stepped out to grab a coffee while Steve and Leanne were arguing.

I noticed that as well. It was so obvious!

Me too! The bed was clearly empty..no sounds from a ventilator either. Outstanding performance from Jane Danson. Annoying though she is...my God, that was impressive acting.

Jaysus poor Steve, Leanne better leave the show soon can't deal with her now imagine the aftermath

Hannibal_Smith

That wasn't easy to watch! Poor Leanne.

Is this going to be another storyline that’s just going to drag on & on? What was the point of an hour long episode if there wasn’t some sort of resolution? Writers don’t seem to be able to end storylines, look at the Yazmeen mess. It really should have ended last nite & let’s move on to some sort of happier storylines

I didn't see it. Do you want to give me a Synopsis?

Really feel for Leanne. She’s an amazing actress Jane Dawson.

I only half watch so don't get too emotionally involved in storylines, hardly ever shed a tear but Friday was an exception. It was such a sad episode and more to come. I thought Jane Danson was great.

I presume Oliver's condition is true to life in terms of symptoms, (not the actor), such an awful disease.

I didn't get this at all. Ridiculous. When I saw this, I thought they pulled the plug on Oliver and shipped him out to the morgue ..

Jane D is a great actress but her character is awful. Poor Steve

They’ve been sitting next to an obviously empty bed for weeks now. Surely they could have just used a doll to add a bump in the bed?

Has Oliver got the same thing that Big Jim McDonald has?

No. Jim’s is Myotonic Distrophy which affects muscle function, so it does.

I remember Bruce Jones talking about this. He has had a hard life. Wish him the best.

Be the hokey Peter! That'd random, I missed most of what Peter and Carla were yapping on about, heard Tina mentioned but is your man coming up to him just random?!

retro:electro

Would they consider turning Leanne off instead and putting her to sleep

At the risk of sounding like a heartless witch...when is this kid going to die? I thought it was meant to be Friday...jeez its just dragging on now

I expect a hostage siege in the hospital with Leanne until he finally passes for Corrie's big 60th week

God I’m gonna sound like a total prick here but Leanne **** up already the poor child dead Jesus stop dragging this out

JP Liz V1

Carla and Adam have chemistry way more so than him and Sarah Louise

Steve and Leanne sit with Oliver, and serenade him once more with a rendition of You are my Sunshine.
Nick and Tracy are heartbroken, as they listen from the hospital corridor.
The singing stops and thus they know that Oliver has died.

I think I’ll give that episode a swerve.

PC Craig wants to know of any building developments in the pipeline so asks ehhh Gareh. Just an idea Poirot but can you not ring the council planning department? Also when we were getting an extension we had to stick a notice in the garden. Do you not have to do that in the UK to demolish a street and build apartments and a retail park?

He only saw drawings. They wouldn’t have been submitted to planning department just yet.

Looking at Rays plans, would open up alot more storylines but realistically Corrie are limited by how much they can expand the set.

Pic of plans attached.

I don’t think she has been since she went to jail.

Why is Ray going to such underhand lengths to build on the street? Doesn't exactly seem like a hive of activity in the area!
