It's even worse than I thought.

ridiculous to have a counselling session in the Bistro but for comedy effect I did think Gemmas mam was funny:D:D

Does anyone else find Tyrone's obsession with Alina very creepy ???

After listening to Fizz for years, there's a good chance you might go a bit mad!

I missed the second of Wednesday's episode too.
Did Tyrone get his loins out?!

Yup...for sure he did. She appears so young and coquetish, the image of him going at her like a sex starved but kindly neighbour makes me heave. I wonder how my stomach would fare out if there was no social distancing on tv.. So all of the debauchery was done onscreen?? I think my reproductive organs would actually shrivel up and withdraw in horror into my chest cavity.
Craig and Fay's thing turns my stomach a bit too..I'm not sure why but I think if he closed his mouth an odd time it would help.
Abby and Kevin don't suit really but I wouldn't spew at the image of them together..if he tidied himself up a bit.
Preposterous, Feez and Ty meeting a therapist in a restaurant. Why didn't they change seats to get away from Gemma' s mother?! Fcuk sake...are they paying Toyah??! Silly billies...
Why do these people leave it until the actual day of their weddings to write their vows and make their dresses??! Seriously though, I wish the writers would leave this couple in peace. Socially isolate them for a month and let them have a proper Carla/Peetah love scene.
I would swap Gemma, Chesney and the quads for Gemma's mam anyday. A great comedy actress with perfect timing. Get rid of her family and develop her character. There you go Corrie writers, that's free advice.

Something I can't help but think when all these characters fall head over heels or tear into the bedroom is that I can't imagine many of the cast (characters, not actors) having anything other than the most dreadfully plain vanilla sex.

If I was to consider who might actually be a hell of a lot of fun in the bedroom when they're at their best and with a compatible partner (again characters, not a comment on real people), I would hazard a guess or not be surprised at:
Tracy, Todd, Adam, Leanne, Toyah, Tracy, Peter, Sarah, Ryan, Alya and Tracy.

Rare do we see characters exiting the bedroom with a smile on their face and a limp in their step.

...yeah it's been a long lockdown...

I see you mention Tracy twice.. interesting but yeah she does have that glint in her eye alright..

Yeah , the scene with the marriage counselling in the restaurant must be the stupidest ever. Ordinary people just wouldn’t do that.
And since when can Gemmas ma afford to be drinking wine and eating mussels ? She’s always skint!!

They took a serious subject and turned it into an attempt at comedy. You can nearly see inside the mind of the cretin that dreamed that up. I bet their every sentence begins with soooo and they use the word basically a lot. Bernie was great but that was the wrong scene to have her in.

My former fitness instructor wife suspects that Craig may have reclaimed a couple of his lost kilos.

He's always doing that!

Three times even. I'm pretty convinced she could absolutely annihilate a sexual partner, and I don't just mean by a statue to the noggin.

Oh yeah 3 times! Sorry I was slow on the uptake lol!

That counselling scene in the restaurant was ridiculous. Nobody would do that in real life. Fiz asking Tyrone if he left her for Alina because he wanted to be with someone different as suggested by the brilliant councillor Toyah:P All they were missing was if Tyrone and Alina were having sex on a nearby table and Toyah asking Fiz how does that make you feel.

I didn’t like what Gemma’s mam said about mental health aka giving it a fancy name and saying everyone can have they have it

Especially when BOTH her own children struggle with mental health challenges related to post-natal depression, and PTSD following sexual assault as a child.
