Seems odd when Eccles is only the second dog on the street - uncharacteristic for the UK in general and Manchester specifically, where dogs are a lot more welcome and common than over here.

There's also:
Evelyn's greyhound Cerberus,
David's yorkshire terrier David,
Kirk and Beth's dachshund Peanut,

And until relatively recently you had Maria's black lab Ozzy.

I also remember Chesney's great dane Schmeichel and Tyrone's greyhound Monica.

What other dogs have featured prominently?

The actor that played him was a Lidl underwhelming, in fairness

They'll probably cast some young hunk that is in his mid-20s, but playing a 16 year old :pac:

JP Liz V1 · 10-04-2020 01:09AM

You would think with all Yasmeen's cleaning and dusting, she might find Geoff's hidden cameras

Ann22 · 10-04-2020 01:15AM

Fcuk off Ken. He was too busy waltzing off with his fancy piece leaving Eccles behind with his dysfunctional family of narcissists...He had a cheek dismissing poor Emma like that. How did any of them think Emma was to blame for a tumour?
She's a great crier but ffs sake please guys give her reason to smile!

If you scroll down to the bottom of the screen it might say mobile site and click it.(I'm not full sure of our issue, It sounds like your gone into the desktop site.)

Thanks for your reply...It's fixed! I went to the main homepage and clicked "touch site" at the very bottom.

I was counting Cerberus.

I can't remember the last time David the dog or Peanut even appeared and forgot about them. And I didn't notice Dev carrying Rover. Another dog thats not been mentioned in ages.

My mistake.

Dev's swinging poo bag was funny.

Icsics · 10-04-2020 01:28PM

Another depressing storyline for Devs daughter. Add in Yazmeen & the whole thing is just too sad to be watching

Dev told her stop so she stopped typical Corrie next episode it’s one and done.

I forgot about that, did she see a doctor or counsellor?

Hannibal_Smith · 10-04-2020 08:03PM

I imagine Ken is going to end up back in the house?

You'd think Emma would have asked Seb to move out rather than her doing so?

Another misandrist comment in a soap, "Only little boys and losers sit in darkened rooms playing with their controllers". If a female is a gamer it is quirky and cute but if a man is a gamer he is a loser and a little boy. The question is why is an adult gamer considered a loser? It is because he is probably single and has no children so they are indirectly calling single childless men losers, it is unacceptable. What annoys me most about these comments are that there is absolutely no need for them, that comment was unnecessary for the story line, the writer just wanted to make a jibe at gamer men. I may make a complaint to ITV once they open up again.

Most of us will be playing with our 'controllers' for the next few weeks.

Icsics · 10-04-2020 10:40PM

No sign of Yasmeen & Geoff, how much longer can they drag it out????

DJIMI TRARORE · 10-04-2020 11:52PM

Was Claudias quote about Ken swimming a cheeky gag and Norris followup, Claudia says he likes to get a few lengths in in the afternoon,and Norris replies its some going at his age

Why is Tracy being such a cünt to Emma? She didn't kill the dog!

Ridculous storyline. Emma was the only one who showed any compassion for that dog. If she took it home from the vets and let it die roaring she'd still be the worst in the world. She was damned either way

Terrible writing in general. No real sadness from the Barlows. Even Ken doesnt seem to be too mournful considering Eccles was his final link to Deirdre.

Emma will probably get the blame for Leannes brat taking a fit too.

Is Toyahs sudden interest in just causes a possible angle for bringing Spider back into the show? He was actually a decent character but he'll die a death with the latest writing. A mess.

Ignore them. Pathetic. None of those ignoramuses will ever know the feeling of bringing Forest Green Rovers all the way from the 6th tier of English football to the champions league final. :pac:

Tracy hates Steve's kids not from her so hates Emma and Fiona, always will pick on Emma when she can

What is wrong with Ollie, inherited illness from Jim, what was that called?

If Emma knew Tracey's history she could have said, "Well at least I didn't cave his head in with an ornament." ☺

am I missing something, how come Emma threw Sebs stuff out the window? had she moved in with Steve and Tracy and now wants to move back into the flat? Is Seb paying rent?
