    yeah seem's to be going that way... didn't she get plastered with eileen recently as well

    If I lived in Coronation Street I'd be permanently sloshed. I fancy myself, as the past her prime but still in better nick than Gloria, spinster lady with 50 cats who moves into Owen's flat. Of course he doesn't know about the cats when she move in first. She's extremely rich, and eccentric enough to want to live there. The cats run riot on the street but she buys up everybody's mortgages and they have to put up with her and the exploding pussy population. My character is partial to a drop of Harvey's Bristol Cream every hour on the hour and starts up a weekly Whist session with Gail, Deirdre and Gloria.

    This sheer tedium of this drives her further down the drink route and she is only saved by the new, young, hot guy from the RSPCA, who have been alerted to the cats by an anonymous phone call, and with whom she has a steamy affair. He is only after her money but fails to realise until too late that the reason she has money is because she draws in the young guys and then sells them into the sex industry in Japan (There's a minor branch of the Yakuza hidden out in Manchester.)

    I missed the first part of it.Who was minding baby Jake while his parents were supping in the pub? When you've just had such trauma of having the child been "stolen" from you, I think you would not want to let him out of your sight?The last thing I would have thought you would be doing would be to be in the pub........


    ......and another thing, Gary and Izzy are very pally again with the woman who stole their child? I think one might not be to pleased to be too friendly to her for a while, if at all.Even Owen is offering to give Tina and Tommy the flat back?:eek:

    Yeah, ok,ok I apologise, baby Jake is in hospital.Silly me.

    They were falling over themselves being nice to her :confused: I assume that now as Gary is registered as the dad that she has signed over the baby to them

    It'd be a bit difficult to give Deirdre a 'hitting the bottle' or any other storyline atm with Ken missing..unless they come up with a good reason for his absence. The have seemed to've changed her character somewhat lately. Remember the Tyrone trial and the way she went on, like some kind of a silly old gossip. Up 'til now, Deirdre was always a decent enough person I thought.

    Anyone else find it odd Deirdre walking alone in the dead of night in an unlit park where she herself claims is generally inhabited by strange or unsavory folk?

    doesn't matter who the new doctor is, he or she will hardly be a regular of the Rovers and won't be seen much

    Ever!

    I dont get Jimmyw's problem with it, its great TV, and despite being a fan, I don't say that Corrie is good TV very often. I have to say Peters personification of the alcoholic is fantastic, the actor, Paul Gasgoine(?) does it surprisingly well. Acting drunk is hard, and he has great comic timing.

    Jikashi, I too found it odd that Deirdre was out rambling in the dark with little Eccles. Very unbelievable that any woman of any age would do that.

    He's hardly ever in it.

    That was difficult viewing. ..David munching on crisps and then picking his teeth...I wish soaps didn't try and make everything so natural

    I don't think she expected him to sleep in them. She was making the point that he needed to see someone or he would keep on sleep walking.

    Christ was Leanne annoying tonight. Before she'd even opened the card from Peter she was at him about Simon reminding him or him buying a cheap card. It's more than you damn deserve. Then being a cow at Nick and Kylie and Fail for the day over this and that. Reminded me of a child who thinks they can get away with being a brat to everyone because it's their day.

    I see the autocorrect, but I think I'll leave it be.
