Members TimWil Posted May 1, 2016 Members Share Posted May 1, 2016 I agree re: Brocklebank. I didn't like him at first but he's grown on me, I really like Billy's friendship with Eva and Aidan and he really stepped up to the plate in last night's episodes. I just want Sean GONE. I think Kate is definitely the weak link of the new Connors although the actress is fine and nice to look at. I have a feeling that she and Caz might just go off into the sunset together sometime this summer and Kate Oates will come up with a new love interest for Sophie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 1, 2016 Members Share Posted May 1, 2016 I'm over Sophie and her interchangeable partners. At this point, I want Sophie to go too. All her stories are starting to become the same. The only time I find myself liking her is when she's opposite Tim, who I find to be one of the few bright spots of this show under Blackburn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TimWil Posted May 11, 2016 Members Share Posted May 11, 2016 Did I miss the bit where Sarah was actually told by David and Kylie that Callum was buried underneath the floorboards in Gail's room? She said again tonight, referring to the Platts'-"It's where he IS." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 11, 2016 Members Share Posted May 11, 2016 I thought she always knew from the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimWil Posted May 11, 2016 Members Share Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) She definitely didn't know at first, she was led to believe by David and Kylie that Callum's body had been thrown into the canal. On DS someone wrote that they were forced to tell her where Callum was buried a few months later when a body found in the canal turned out not to have been Callum's but I don't think that's true.

Members DRW50 Posted May 13, 2016 Members Share Posted May 13, 2016 There's a version of this on Youtube with the first 10 seconds missing, but I found the full version (I'd always wondered why Ken wasn't in the other one...) as part of a junction, so I put it on Youtube. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 24, 2016 Members Share Posted May 24, 2016 Why has God forsaken me?! http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/coronation-street/news/a795195/antony-cotton-signs-up-for-another-year-on-coronation-street/ Who's d-ck is he sucking to last this long? In other news, Carla/Nick's wedding episode tonight ... I just thought this was one arc that went on too long. Even though I love Carla, I can't even pity her at this moment. I'm kind of glad she's going away. I just wish she'd kill Tracey in the process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 25, 2016 Members Share Posted May 25, 2016 He must have some high friends at ITV, along with the talentless Jennie McAlpine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimWil Posted May 25, 2016 Members Share Posted May 25, 2016 I sort of get Jennie McAlpine sticking around but Anthony Cotton is insufferable as Sean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 25, 2016 Members Share Posted May 25, 2016 I don't get Jennie McAlpine sticking around either. Fiz is another character that needs to get lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 26, 2016 Members Share Posted May 26, 2016 Did everyone enjoy Corrie tonight? I knew Carla would miss Tracey and hit someone else. I just hate that Carla and Roy's relationship will be destroyed in the process. He was her surrogate father for the longest. Fiz & Tyrone.... Can we give these morons a stable income so we can move on from this story? I don't care about them struggling at all. Seriously, I don't. Plus, I am over Fiz and her constant moaning. I was hoping her ass got ejected from the car and died instantly. That would've been a perfect ending to this stunts week. Glad this Callum story is being wrapped up even though much like Carla's story, it was worthless and should've ended right before it even took off. Kylie killed Callum, who was assaulting Sarah, so this shouldn't even be a big issue. They should've went to the cops from the start and I am sure Kylie would've gotten off with a slap on the wrist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 26, 2016 Members Share Posted May 26, 2016 I saw the end, and while I appreciate the attempt at a big umbrella effect, the way it was done was so oddly stodgy and slow. Tracy's "shocked" face and the acting from Fiz and Tyrone...and I am ashamed to say I LOL when Cathy went flying. I did love Gail slapping Carla (not so much the huffing and puffing from the family like she was some zoo animal). That was old school Gail. Carla did look gorgeous. Nick doesn't know what he's missing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 26, 2016 Members Share Posted May 26, 2016 A lot of people share the same sentiments when it comes to Gail. Everyone enjoyed seeing old school Gail, who wasn't the comical dolt she's become now. I miss uptight, high-strung Gail. Gail being comedic doesn't do anything for me. I am OK with Sally being comedic b/c her pairing with Tim is everything. Gail, on the other hand, I don't buy it, and I didn't like her always sniffing after Michael's whiny ass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 26, 2016 Members Share Posted May 26, 2016 I heard a lot of "worst exit ever" "disgrace to Corrie," and so on, but the real disgrace was what's been done to Carla ever since the Peter relationship began in 2010. This was just - an exit. Not a particularly inspiring one, but what can you do. I would have had her talk about Liam, but he doesn't really exist on the show anymore. I might have had a goodbye with Maria, and way less of her drama queen insta-sister, and a final scene in an empty factory, but the rest was...alright, I suppose. The goodbye with Michelle and with Johnny (I continue to think Johnny could be a great character if given proper treatment), and with Roy (although I couldn't understand most of what she was saying). I would have taken out the goodbye with Tracy, as it was just tired, and even they both seemed over it. Her hospital scene with Roy also had this theme - she knew it was rinse and repeat, she just wanted it all done. So anyway, I'd say it was not that memorable, but not really awful either. Just an exit, in the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
