Coronation Street [News, Spoilers and Discussion] contd

KevRossi

I think Jan

might be involved, but is looking for a way out. I think he was involved with the gang on a low level and might be in some kind of debt to the gang, or in fear of them. I also think that he genuinely has feelings for Eileen. So I think he will sacrifice himself in some way to save Eileen from some trouble, if this means him getting killed, or going to prison, I don't know. Also, he is Polish, Alina in Romanian and Nikolai is a very Romanian name, so that's the other reason why I think he's a foot soldier and not an organiser.

He comes across as a decent actor IMO

Blimey , Jan looks so different clean shaven!:

I very vaguely remember him now in a few episodes of EastEnders too - being a possible love interest for Shirley Carter when he owned a Polish Delicatessen

unfortunately that - and it must be the soap people who post out the spoilers , because you see credits underneath the photo of scenes to come and credited to ITV

maybe they release stuff like this to get more viewers , post out a few scenes and hope people will tune in to see how it all unfolds

Robert is stressing me out. I'll have gall stones by the time this story line is done :pac:

I bet Michelle goes off with flashy posh git Ray

I still think Jan is a good guy and will probably turn out to be a deep cover cop.

If i was female and pregnant I would lounge around too

i'd wheel out the "ooh I'm feeling a bit flushed - I think its high blood pressure, and its not good for the baby" ....

ah yeah, I'd be really milking it I reckon

Eileen quizzes Jan. He insists he was working in Birmingham, but something is niggling her and she heads to the salon.

Eileen is shocked to find Jan, Nikolai and Rachel hastily putting all the fixtures and fittings into a van.

Eileen is gutted when Jan tells her that he's a liar and a cheat and that he never cared for her. A fight ensues between Jan and Nikolai, who smashes Eileen's phone so she can't call the police.

As Eileen starts to fear for her life, the police smash their way into the salon and arrest them all and cart them off to the police station. Having been interviewed by the police, Eileen is released without charge.

Abi explains how Seb called the police which led to the raid on the nail bar. A downbeat Eileen tells Abi that Jan was part of the trafficking ring.

Pamela Landy

Sue Cleaver lost 3st. I thought it showed tonight.

just watching the first series of gameface and jan plays a shopkeeper in one of the episodes.

Johnny surely could pluck it out of his arse like? Sure even the poorest of the residents who are able to raise 5 times the amount without blinking an eye. :rolleyes:

Actually 'Jan' is not his name, he's really Nicolai and is married to the Nail Bar Manager Rachel! He's the kingpin.

Rachel was talking to Jan in tonights episode and then he left and Rachel called Nikolai.

Claudia and her decluttering. :rolleyes

Does Coronation Street bring me joy? No, frankly. Not any more. Maybe i need to remove it from my flat.

Agree but ffs it is just not practical. Her and Tyler are odious...there is no way Robert would sleep with someone like that

Vicky and Tyler have been softened up and humanised for this storyline. Tyler has changed due to his new job that Robert helped him get. Vicky was grateful, began to trust Robert so opened up to him and showed her vulnerable side. It's a pity the start of Vicky and Robert's relationship happened off screen.

I remember her reaction to Amy's pregnancy. It was vile

She was vile during that storyline alright.

The nail salon boss makes a good hateful character.
Hope they keep her in it for a while.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned before but anyone else think Seb is an atrocious actor?
Always has a face on him like he’s just smelled something rancid.

Pamela Landy wrote: »

Yeah I think he went to the Fart in a Lift school of drama with Nick/Ben Price.

He is absolutely terrible. He does this thing with his mouth that drives me mad and everything he says has a sense of urgency even if its not urgent.

It's all I see now when he's on screen. Hoisting his upper lip into that 'whatsthatsmell' face :pac:

I think Vicky and even Tracy were better matches for Robert than Michelle
