Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2010 Members Share Posted June 2, 2010 The court stuff still isn't working for me, aside from Norris and Mary. I like seeing James Fleet and the scenes where he took Carla and Hayley hostage were tense, I loved when Tony swanned into the room and ripped the tape off Carla's mouth ("that's three layers of fake tan gone"), but why exactly would Roy or Carla automatically do anything that this strange man wants, a man who happens to come to Weatherfield just as Tony escapes from prison, and who is talking to both of them? I guess they just don't know each other well enough to compare notes.

Members BadBoy93 Posted June 2, 2010 Members Share Posted June 2, 2010 Seige Week is doing ok so far. Gail stuff is pretty good and Norris/Mary are starting to work well off each other. Seige story itself is doing pretty good and with a strong lead in like Britains Got Talent, i suspect the ratings will remain high. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 2, 2010 Members Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) Due to the recent shooting tragedy, tonight's Corrie has been PULLED OFF the ITV schedule. It looks like they aren't sure when the episode is going to be broadcast yet, too... http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s3/coronation-street/news/a223177/tonights-corrie-pulled-from-schedules.html Edited June 2, 2010 by Y&RWorldTurner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted June 2, 2010 Members Share Posted June 2, 2010 :o Wow. I guess it's honorable of them to dump this huge storyline in the name of not wanting to upset the people affected by this tragedy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 2, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted June 2, 2010 This "Siege Week" sounds interesting! What episode should I start downloading from? Monday? Too bad about the the tragedy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2010 Members Share Posted June 2, 2010 Monday was when the siege week started, but last Friday was when they started showing Tony in prison and when they introduced his cellmate, Robbie, who came to Weatherfield to pave the way for Tony's return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 3, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted June 3, 2010 Okay thanks. So I guess I start with last Friday's ep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dannigold Posted June 3, 2010 Members Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) ITV postpones Corrie for second day Coronation Street will once again be pulled from this evening's schedules in the wake of Cumbria's shooting tragedy. Late yesterday evening, the commercial broadcaster decided not to broadcast the Manchester soap's fourth episode of Siege Week out of respect for those who were killed during yesterday's incident. The 9pm slot - sandwiched between the Britain's Got Talent performance and results shows - will again be filled by Harry Hill's The Best of TV. An ITV spokesperson this afternoon confirmed: "Following the tragic events in Cumbria yesterday, both Wednesday's and Thursday's planned Coronation Street episodes have been postponed.” It has not yet been confirmed when the outstanding episodes of Coronation Street will be broadcast.

Members Ben Posted June 3, 2010 Members Share Posted June 3, 2010 I had an idea they'd pre-empt all of the week (can't imagine they'll air Friday's). I don't know why they just don't air them next week, instead, but edited. Otherwise, if they continue as normal, there will be no point in airing these at a later date, as we would've known the outcome. There are times (last 2 years) that it really feels as if Corrie are cursed. I remember when Days cut out that plane crash from 2001, which was near to 09/11, and all we saw was Victor and Nicole on a plane, and then on the island, with Victor's arm in a sling. They should do something like that, and cut out the shootings, and limit the gun scenes; the context is way different to the real life tragedy, so what they have left, should be OK. Or, merge episodes together... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JamesF Posted June 3, 2010 Members Share Posted June 3, 2010 Tbh I'd rather they just delayed the episodes and then used the erratic scheduling of the next month to try to "catch up" to correct airdates. I absolutely hate it when episodes are cut about and storylines edited. I'd rather watch nothing than a barely decipherable version of what was originally intended. Perhaps it's the frustrated Neighbours viewer in me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadBoy93 Posted June 3, 2010 Members Share Posted June 3, 2010 I think they should just air the episodes. I know its sad that the cumbria shootings happen but no one is going to be affected by it. Its fiction for crying out load. Friday air double episodes and air another on Saturday. i was so looking forward to Siege Week and ITV have screwed it all up. THANKS A BUNCH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drew Posted June 3, 2010 Members Share Posted June 3, 2010 Its not like people fresh off making funeral arrangements or caring for loved ones in the hospital are going to sit down to Corrie, or any soaps, anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 4, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted June 4, 2010 Is there a youtube channel that uploads the episodes pretty quickly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
