    Jamie...

    And he had another son called Warren, the footballer. Debra Stephenson played his mother, Frankie.

    Wasn’t Mark, Mike Baldwin’s son? Danny’s son was Jamie.

    yes, I think probably right,

    Has Imran kids already, did I miss when he and Toyah agreed on fostering?

    I don't think he has kids already, did they allude to it at any stage?
    I also dont remember there being any discussion about fostering, although they tend to drop these things into conversation as if it's no big deal rather than mulling it over for a while.

    I thought he had kids with his wife, did the mother maybe say it when angry at him that he had left his wife and kids but I could be wrong :o

    I completely forgot he had a wife when he joined. Just googling his back story and no mention of kids.

    as if Toyah & Imran, together about 6 months and living in a houseshare would be put forward for fostering.

    I loved how they glossed over the 'Baby Susie' thing. Oh yes, an ideal person to foster is Toyah.

    Do they have to make Oliver so sick? A life limiting condition that could leave him with weeks, maybe months but hopefully years... It's such a sad story.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,496 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I don't think they will kill off Oliver, he is Leanne's miracle biological child and Steve already lost Ruairi

    Is any of Leanne's family especially Stella or Janice going to visit and support her

    It sounded absolutely terminal in today's episode but hopefully Oliver will live for many years.

    I was also thinking about Janice and Les, Stella and Eva, they don't seem to give a hoot! I think Simon will feel very isolated soon, just when he seems to be a good kid again.

    Yes they used the term 'life limiting' several times. Coincidentally there was a contestant on The Chase beforehand who said she was a carer for her two children with Mitochondrial Disease, aged 14 and 20. I was surprised by their ages..maybe they'll show him living with treatment for years, having good and bad days. Usually the kids tend to disappear into the background for a few years anyway. Haven't seen Jack in a long time and his storyline was big for a while. Adi and Asha were barely in it growing up.

    Reflecting on discovering she was pregnant with Oliver, Leanne said that at the time she thought "this is my one chance to be a mum" or something like that - I just thought, poor Simon, she's been his mum for longer than not at this stage.

    As an aside, I still can't believe that Simon's a dad in real life, he looked about 12 cooking that dinner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,496 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I kinda feel more sorry for Nick and Simon than Steve and Leanne


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,300 ✭✭✭✭casio4


    I like the little touches that are there like Peter on the phone saying Steve and Leanne are in bits, this is what happens in real life people chatting about the neighbours and relatives. It has been lost for a while but good to see it back rather than just jumping from one story to another and one scene to another not knowing how the rest of street feel about something as big as a sick child. They should spend more time on stories and involve a lot of the cast in the story.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,060 ✭✭✭Jikashi


    During the scene in Roy's Rolls where the lads were talking trains, there was an extra behind them at the next table sitting completely still and staring directly into the camera for at least a good ten seconds before he started moving and reacting to things around him. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,068 ✭✭✭runningbuddy


    How **** a Dad is Peter?? Why isn't he on hand with Simon during the whole Oliver illness?:confused:

    The most unbelivable thing about Simon is that Peter and Lucy the florist, (both caucasian) are his parents. How did they manage that?

    Years ago when a lady had a baby that there was doubt about the father, one old dear said “Ah shur, they had great neighbours”

    Sick of listening to Chesney and Gemma moaning about how hard their lives with the babies are. Are we going to have this storyline going on for years?

    OMG. If that’s all you can say about Corrie at the moment........Words fail me!

    I just want to know about Yasmeen and Geoff! She’s been in prison about a fortnight now, so surely it’s time for her trial!


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 7,152 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hannibal_Smith


    This storyline is awful. I don't see how Coronation Street thought it would be good. Admittedly when storylines like this come up I give out but by the end I'm a blubbering wreck saying how well they've done it. So I reserve the right to change my mind. But for the moment... Uuugh


  • Registered Users Posts: 628 ✭✭✭Meeoow

    Ha ha. It pretty much is all I can say. I was just thinking that it is that boring, that even this thread has gotten boring.

    As Marlene told Boycie in only Fools & Horses (when they had fertility problems she brought home a Black baby, she had fallen in love with, for possible adoption to pass off as their own biological child) “we could say he’s a (genetic) throwback”.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,725 ✭✭✭Kauto0709


    Good storyline but Leanne makes it annoying!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,496 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Leanne forgot she had an abortion of Nick's baby, she was horrid to Toyah

    You'd think it'd be easy to root for the mother of a dying child but Leanne is really making it difficult!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭happyday


    True. Even though she is suffering it doesn't give her the right to be so awful to kind people who are doing their best to help her.

    Tyrone is a thick c*nt and always has been. Nothing charming about him and Fizz. They try to push them as the new Jack and Vera, but they have the appeal of Fred and Rosemary West.

    I thought Yasmeen and Sally were excellent tonight. Good to see them, and others like Kathy, get their head ou of their arses and see Geoff for what he really is. Can't wait til Yasmeen starts swinging back and puts that git in his place. Tim is another thick c*nt, and I fully expect him to defend his dad until his mother makes a return and reveals what Geoff was like to be with.

    Good to see Alex back too. I miss him when he is not around. He's one of the more charming residents in the street.

    Leanne is a waste of space. Terrible moany character and a bad actress with zero appeal. Just coz she's there forever does not make her good. Wish they'd pack her and her sister off for good and bring back Les!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,148 ✭✭✭Immortal Starlight


    Oh my god what a massive thundering bitch Leanne is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 766 ✭✭✭Lennox Gilbey


    Paula Wilcox will be coming into the show as Geoff's former partner. She was last in Corrie 51 years ago.

    I thought it was particularly badly written last week when they had Tyrone and Fiz actually outright question whether they were turning into Jack & Vera. No subtlety whatsoever about it.

    Gosh I remember her in 'Man about the House'. Great to see she is still working.

    I think we're starting to see some newly filmed scenes peppered into these episodes - Nick is suddenly quite a bit greyer and is keeping a distance from Leanne. They were all quite spaced out during the scene with Imran too.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 7,152 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hannibal_Smith


    I thought the same about Nicks hair.

    I have to say... Leeanne is a brilliant crier. She chokes me up every time she cries.

    It crossed my mind that he should have given her a hug there. I suppose he couldn't.

    I also noticed that Nick and Imran are both suddenly extra suntanned :)

    I spotted the new clean shaven Nick after he chased Leanne at 5am. He got back to the house and had a full beard again. Some growth :D

    Are these pre or post Covid scenes that they're showing?

    Tim must have a very poor memory saying how fantastic his father was. The man never took much of an interest in his son, never noticing he never learned to read and write, when Geoff himself obviously has excellent literacy skills, the way he is more than able to use his pc. He was evidently always an extremely self-centred man de kid of care of how his son was turning out.

    I would imagine I'm very much in the minority, but she's a good crier.

    I go through phases with her. How she treats Steve is really annoying. But she has some good moments. I liked when Carla and Peter got together and she went back to the flat for something and they were trying to pull a bottle of wine out of each others hands. Leeanne says something like 'so this is what I'm missing out on' :D
