I expect nothing more from stacey Slater fans. Celebrating mediocrity!

Eddie is the Dad, seems to be the street's next builder as he's now helping rebuild the factory after the roof collapse. Aggie is the mother and she's literally done nothing apart from have a brief feud with Claudia about noise levels from building work. Michael is the oldest, seems to be a typical soap ducker and diver, cheeky ladies man who has already tried to get Michelle and Maria into bed. James is the footballer who Steve, Tim and Kevin are obsessed with because he plays for Weatherfield County. Apparently he's gay which considering they haven't even hinted at that yet seems stupid that we already know that. They've hinted that there's some secret they're all keeping about why they moved away and to the street.

tbh this storyline feels like it's gone on forever though. I remember seeing Tyler and Robert together months ago and thinking "oh jeez Michelle's gonna be gone by this month!"
I just checked and Vicky and Robert's storyline began on this day 2 months ago (when Robert broke up with her and it was revealed Robert was going to be the father of her child) The whole "whodunnit?" storyline with the factory collapse lasted between 20th March and 31st May so... 72 days Meanwhile this storyline has gone on for 61 days (if it's wrapped up by Friday, 63 days) with no set end truly in site...idk it's just really funny to me that the storyline in which Michelle leaves has taken nearly as long as the really hyped up whodunnit? storyline |

Yeah I think you're right.
I can see what they're trying to do in terms of establishing them on the street because they've all actually had more scenes with other characters than they have each other which seems slightly odd.

also what was the point in kicking Norris out of #3 the moment he comes back?
It's safe to say he's pacing his way back into becoming a regular so then what? They haven't done anything too extraordinary with the Bailey's so it's just like it was vacant as it has been for a good while |

The show in its current state is so stale, it’s actually painful to watch sometimes, I needs something fresh

You're right tbh, you couldn't even tell that they're from the same family. Granted I've not watched every recent Corrie episode recently (I'm never in and I don't see the point in catching up since half the time you can do with missing 40 mins) but I can't even think of a time the mum and dad have shared a scene together? |

If I can give them one thing it's that this cheating storyline is evolving more into some double-life thing which hasn't really been done for a good while/since I've watched regularly, so I'm glad that Robert just didn't have a one-night stand with Vicky, got her pregnant, regretted it, and Michelle finds out and leaves overnight in anger
Basically: I'm glad that a cheating storyline is going a bit differently than I expected. Granted there's only so many ways you can cheat on someone, but yknow |

I wonder why they're so under-utilised, as characters and as a family. For months they were hyped up to be this new family moving into Number 3 and... honestly for some of them, those brief descriptions we got about them on social media and in news tells us more than what we've seen of them being on the cobbles for 2 months at the very least (which feels a tad ridiculous, when you think about the fact we're getting around 2 and a half hours of Corrie each week? And the brand new family has barely appeared in that time?) Last edited by Ant.; 14-08-2019 at 10:51 PM. |

Emma at the forefront is as amazing as I hoped it would be because the actress is brilliant and I'm looking forward to Paul's story too (so long as Chesney stays well away from it. Gemma's involement is unavoidable sadly). I'd like to think it will end him and Billy because they are an awful couple, but no doubt it'll just make them "stronger," and Asha's story looks to be good as well (Can we just at the fact that Aadi has been left in India because the actor is clearly incapable of anything) and I'm pleased that Dev is back as I always enjoy him.

By the sounds of it, it's being built around Gary Windass, the world's worst soap villain. So I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Well, it's possible. I mean the Harris family's story finished in 2005 and that aspect of them wasn't that memorable so it wouldn't be a terrible story idea for them.

Emma's BRILLIANT and as much as I really liked her light, fun side, it's (a bit awful and inhumane to say this ) good to see her in a more serious storyline. Gemma was comedy relief that... worked better being on the sidelines as comedy relief (I liked her when she was offering 3 lines an episode, way before her pregnancy storyline) so I was scared I might go off Emma like I did with Gemma when a character that's usually to the sides crackin' jokes gets a 'serious' storyline. I'm hoping Chesney won't be involved since Paul's barely been involved in the pregnancy storyline (I can only think of the time he found out and him being iffy with her for wanting to live with their mum) but who knows. Paul and Billy just seem like a lustful relationship tbh, I just don't see any love or chemistry between them. Something tells me they're gonna go for a James x Paul storyline later on so maybe this will be the end of Paul and Billy? To my knowledge, Dev returned on Monday? (I'm sure I watched Friday's episodes but don't remember him appearing) so I'm a bit lost with the Asha storyline but a MESS at Aadi being written out in such a way. Are you sure he won't come back after awhile? Not that his exit is newsworthy but nowhere seems to mention he's gone for good, but regardless he's not a loss to the show |

Fridays episodes were so bad. Gemma's mum selling her piss was so weird and the new guy is seriously one of the worst actors. He's like a Hollyoaks character walked into Corrie.
