Thank you for the spoilers.
No mention of Simon and the domestic abuse storyline anywhere, not that I can find anyway.



Jenny and Kevin should be together IMO.

Connor McIntyre on Pat Phelan's return

I am split over Pat's return. I like the actor playing him and think he does a good job, but I don't know if I can be bothered with yet another baddie tormenting or blackmailing a character.

Ditto.
The character got rid of Owen.
Bring back Owen, I'd rather see him return.

Phelan will end up turning good and taking over Jason's building yard. It's how thngs are in soaps and then all will be forgotten and Anna will be serving him bacon rolls like nothing ever happened

http://metro.co.uk/2016/01/17/watch-...eturn-5628197/

It is contrived how Carla always ends up in these terrible situations. And of course she would have to be hospitalized, no doubt in "critical" condition with the worried characters standing around wondering if she will pull through.

If this Metro article is true it's a complete rip off of the last Carla/Tracy thing a few months ago!!
Tracy skulking around looking for something to kill Carla with, then just ad she's chosen her weapon something happens to stop her but Carla ends up in mortal danger anyway!!
FFS if Jamie & his mate succeed in offing both Tracy & Carla at one go they would become my favourite characters of all time!!!!

It's just so repetitive.
So bloody boring.
I don't know if I can watch anymore, even from habit.
I remember watching the very first episode.

Mary has convinced herself Brendan is deeply unhappy in his marriage to wife Bridget and that she is the one he really loves.

And as she tries to explain to Bridget that she and Brendan are in love, he walks into The Rovers.

Shocked to see what’s been going on, he pretends he has no idea who Mary is.

And don't forget the obligatory oxygen tubes in the nose.

and the private room, doctors and nurses in abundance and half the street around the bed.

Actress Paula Lane, who plays Kylie Platt, is to give birth to her second child in the summer.

It means show bosses face a major storyline headache.

Paula, 29, has been at the centre of Corrie’s most dramatic plot since her character killed Callum Logan (Sean Ward) in the live episode to mark ITV’s 60th anniversary last September.

The story was set to unfold further this year with crucial scenes involving David Platt, played by Jack P Shepherd, and his screen sister Sarah (Tina O’Brien).

But now writers will have to factor in Paula’s maternity leave.

Hopefully she is sent down for Callum's murder, along with David and Sarah as her accomplices for covering it up.

Calling in at the flat, Kevin tells Anna that Ron was ripping him off so he's given the contract to Jason and Phelan instead. Anna tries to hide her dismay.

When Dev suggests he'd prefer it if they used Brendan's house in future, will Mary be forced to admit that Brendan's married?

Rita meets up with Jenny in the park. Jenny assures her that she's got her life back on track and asks her if she can possibly forgive her but when Rita hesitates, Jenny flees, upset, and in her haste, drops her purse. Having found Jenny's address in the purse, Rita tracks her down to a squalid bedsit.

The police pay Carla a visit and tell her they've arrested Jamie and he's admitted to the robbery. Steph visits Carla and apologises for Jamie's actions.

In the Kabin, Sally rounds on Jenny but Kevin arrives and tells Jenny that while she must stay away from Jack, she's welcome to live with Rita as far as he's concerned.

Thank you.

Doesn't sound too interesting.

I am guessing Jenny is getting employment at the factory? And by proving her innocence I am guessing something goes missing, she will be blamed and low and behold, it was a misunderstanding!

More Carla and Johnny. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

And this handsome stranger will no doubt be a crook or something as almost a lot of the men in Corrieland are dodgy and up to something.

Crook/drug dealer/friend of a friend/has feelings for Todd

Wonder if the last two spoilers for frI 5th are connected
