Coronation Street

This is long overdue .

Those dreary Eastenders have a thread, so surely the whimsical Weatherfield residents should have one too.

Anyway, my contribution is that I was pleased to see Carla back.

No. Tony is alive. The bloke that killed Liam tried to kill Carla and she knocked him out with an ornament. Tony burst in and convinced Carla she had killed him, Jimmy he is called. Like the old dentist joke they agreed not to hurt each other and Carla left.

Re: Coronation Street

Lets not forget Molly too. She has the most amazing eyes. Im not surpirsed she with kevin the grease monkey, im mean Tyrone is no oil painting and is a few spanners short of a full tool box....

Then there's Michelle....how Steve could do the dirty on her with Becky! Don't think much of Becky - too scrawny. Same goes for Leanne.

Yep - the ladies make soaps worth watching!

..and the storylines too...

Is Norris the funniest soap character? Loved his interaction with his new bookcase member of staff.

Re: Coronation Street

I think there is more humour on the street than the square but in the main i think it still good although some nights nothing of consequence actually happens.

Re: Coronation Street

I'd agree to a no spoiler policy.

And Pam's "everyone seems interested in my baps today" line had me spitting out my coffee. The look on Roy's face was priceless.

One of the assets of Corrie - the one liners!

As for Tony, i think there is a storyline for Christmas with him in and Roy.....

Corrie on Wednesday night has been ditched so ITV can show football on that night. The last episode was the 20.30 on Monday I think. Next one is tonight at 20.30.

For the past few months I have noticed motion judder when for example a character moves a hand across the screen. Cant say i ever noticed it before on the programme but it happen quite often now. I dont notice it regulary on anything else except a series of Come Dine with Me. I have not watched that in a while so cannot comment on whether it is still there.
Has something changed in the way they shoot Corrie?
