Surely a total SOR tonight - two separate scenes in the factory and all the staff are sitting around either looking around chatting or picking at bits of fabric - not one sewing machine going
The factory itself is an SOR -- who in their right mind would order that many pairs of knickers? Will the job even be done on time?
Rita annoyed me tonight, wanting Norris to apologise despite her bleating on the other week acting like Peter was to blame for Tina's murder and seemed more bothered he had an affair with her than Rob being her true killer. Really sick and tired of this character. Wish she would book herself into a retirement home instead of hanging around like a bad smell lording it up over everyone. Hopefully
Jenny cons the stupid bint and makes her life a misery when she returns.
Todd's scar jumped from left to right. Shambles!!!

Notice Miss Hell back to her scathing best.
Noticed Michelle in the bar in her dressing gown and noticed her legs were more tangoed than Tina while the rest of her was very pale! She was also make-up free!
If you get a chance check out episodes of Coronation Street from the early 80's of Baldwins Casuals which really did make it look like a proper working factory rather than the unrealistic, clean and almost untouched business that is Underworld. When I came across an edition by accident recently I was amazed at the difference.
It may be a soap opera, therefore a work of fiction with all the artistic licence that entails, but Peter being out and back in the Barlow household lust like that within a week of Carla informing on him and Rob's admission, when he has been fully convicted by a jury on a murder charge is quite a contemptible way to play this story out. Not even the first time it's happened in CS, or even the Barlow family! Tracy mysteriously came free from a murder conviction too and turned up back home on the flimsiest of vague tales about it being "quashed", none of which we saw.
Yes it's all pretend, but CS is about as genuine as Trumpton, Chigley or Camberwick Green nowadays!

LOL - a lot of these so called sors are just people not paying attention - it showed him standing in front of a mirror then it was the reflection you saw on screen:)
Re Todd's injury. Did anyone see 24hrs in A & E this week with the man whose face collided with a car hatchback. His lip and part of his face was hanging off, and he lost part of his nose. It was a mess. However, they stitched him back together and SENT HIM STRAIGHT HOME. Contrast and compare with Todd, who has just a black eye and a 3 cm cut on his cheek - inpatient in a private room, oxygen (what on earth for?) and painkillers. You've just got to laugh!
Also, did I hear right...illiterate Tim says to Sally 'I got your text message' (when she was standing in her cerise sleeveless dress in her front room. This 'inability' to read becomes more ridiculous daily.

Susan, that's just what w e said. We noticed the sign on the door too said treatment room so it's not usually a ward then!
Also, getting back to the 24hrs in A&E, just proves how Corrie is so unrealistic. Todd gets beaten up keeps the bed warm for how many days? yet a cyclist head butting a car from his cycle receiving dreadful injuries gets stitched up and sent home without even an overnight stay. ( didn't think that was right by the way)
We're my eyes deceiving me last night when Chesney and family were eating. We're they having stew with salad or was that supposed to be veg?
I have never, ever seen sean working on the machine in the factory. He is always picking at the material with either fingers or scissors. He wouldn't produce many garments if he was on bonus.

I can't be bothered to "do the maths", but how much profit could realistically be brought in from such an order?
Given all the (50%?) mark-ups further along the wholesale/retail chain, they'll have to make them for about 50p a pair, surely, or less?
Yet they're dancing around as if they've put M&S out of business; my assorted bosses over the past goodness-knows-how-many-years never treated me like that on either a job well done, or a good bit of new business - it was more a case of "well done, now bloody well get on with it"

They are an alternative to the larger oxygen masks that go over the nose and mouth.
Yes, they're connectd to an oxygen supply and which is split into two tubes that go arouund your head amd two very short tubes go just inside your nose so that the oxygen can be delivered straight into your respiratory system. They can regulate how much oxygen is delivered.
When I had them fitted, the flow control was behind my bed and a visitor to the bed next to mine caught it when she put her coat on a hook and nearly blew my head off because she put it to maximum. I ripped it off my face quicker than you could say no.

I wondered about that. 10,000 pairs of knickers @ 50p or £1 a pair wouldn't cover the wages bill for very long!
What I didn't get was why Tim couldn't make 'date night' after going to Anna's for his reading lesson, which was due to start at 5pm!
I thought it was 6pm but never mind even then I thought it was early enough for the date night to still go ahead. How long is one of Anna's lessons? ;-) And she's going to teach him to read in time for the auction at Christmas! :D:D

I agree, possibly the worst storyline ever. The viewers are being treated like morons over this. Nobody in their right minds would agree that corrie have this right
Yes it's all pretend, but CS is about as genuine as Trumpton, Chigley or Camberwick Green nowadays!
Most factories looked like that in the early 80s, thankfully sheds like that are now few and far between.
They are treating the viewers with utter contempt if they think that anyone with half a brain cell would agree they have it right
On a longer shot you a see a sign on the wall reflected - backwards writing.
I dont think even Corrie could cock that one up. It would take hours to do that make up.Pretty certain the make up artist would remember which eye was damaged

It was his reflection in the mirror.

Since moving to the new set, Corrie is pristine!

Whats the betting it will be gone by Christmas

Badly-damaged eye moving places too.
At least they put a cardi on her in a later scene
What I didn't get was why Tim couldn't make 'date night' after going to Anna's for his reading lesson, which was due to start at 5pm!
There was a full shelving rack just behind the door, so it looked even less like a 'ward' and more like a storage cupboard!
When I had them fitted, the flow control was behind my bed and a visitor to the bed next to mine caught it when she put her coat on a hook and nearly blew my head off because she put it to maximum. I ripped it off my face quicker than you could say no.
The image on the right was a reflection
I must keep a look out for it in every scene he is in as I suspect it won't be there.
In the same way, I shall look out to see if the poppy collection tin is still on the bar counter (at the end, by the pay phone)

It's left Corrie. It's contract is up. ;-)
...and now sitting in the Warehouse along with the pets and kids
