The pacing of the story is absolutely awful as we only discovered she was feeling lonely on Friday and since then she’s been acting like nobody has spoken to her in weeks and it’s not like she isn’t considered to be an important part of the community with plenty of friends, but it’s always good to see the characters that have been in it for decades step into the limelight and Barbara Knox will be heartbreaking.

Senorita Rita, who could be queen of Spain!!! Gemma would go round at least, and Jenny. It's stupid writing.

Does anyone else find tyler hot

Scally king :drool:

Wow Geoff is an absolute bastard. Great story though, both actors are really knocking it put the park.

Tyler and Adam and Ali can feel free to jump in my bed. Seperate or all together, I don't mind.

What the feck is going on with Ali's hair? :conf:

Is he still an addict so they're making him look as rough as possible?

My God I REALLY hate Geoff (which means the actor is doing an amazing job!)

I agree with the criticisms of the plot that they haven't really done well establishing what Yasmeen sees in Geoff in the first place?

Like what is the part of him she fell in love with? What is the part of him that she clings onto when he "turns"? He's been an irritating arsehole since he arrived so why she developed a relationship with him in the first place is letting the story down IMO.

Rita is breaking my heart :bawling:

Nnn no wonder there were two fatalities with the STATE of the CPR in this ep

I can excuse how bizarre the entire scenario was but I will NOT understand the ending. "Three of our neighbours got shot and a man with a gun just fell to his death. Let's all use Rita's tab to get bladdered and sing Christmas songs! :idc:

I get that the message was that they were uniting in a time of crisis which is nice and poignant especially since Rita was feeling lonely but READ THE ****ING ROOM!!

Hmm, it was a decent action episode, but I kinda missed how Corrie Christmas eps usually are, seeing the families gathering and stuff

Well, I guess we saw our 1st and 2nd Christmas deaths in the shows 59 year history.

Loved that episode. Very tense. I didn't expect Robert to get hit by the bullet :shocked:

Like the rest of the soapa it just got a meh from me. We knew Robert was coming out of it any day now anyway.

This is the problem with soaps these days to me. We know who's leaving months and months beforehand and the storylines in between don't interest me, cause I know their character will be gone.

So if Shona has no brain activity how are they going to bring her back after maternity leave?

Her to be taxidermied and be sat in the Platt living room for the foreseeable future?

:joker:

she will probably make some miracle recovery in six months time?

She'll become the Weasels other half in the salon.

I don't know how to feel knowing Steve and Tracy got raunchy to "Bring Me To Life"

Producer interview for 2020...some interesting sounding stuff in here... :think:

Have to say I originally didn't think much of Evelyn as a character (even though I knew how good an actress Maureen Lipman can be) but WOW she's like the highlight of most episodes now for me. The emotional side she showed tonight in the Doctor's surgery was brilliant. Love her, "Corrie Icon" written all over her and I hope she sticks around for a long, long time.

the spring storyline better be ****ing good
