I really thought she'd seen the light and smelt the coffee when she accused toxic and partner in crime of trashing her house and faking a burglary. Wouldn't the scared looks at mentioning calling the police and then saying there was 3 no 4 of them ring alarm bells ?

Then go and falls for the "do you think your own daughter would do such a thing". Well yes, this is Tracy were talking about, she would !!!!

Given she then said that she didn't think it was kids and that it was a man and woman in their 30s she clearly saw through them.

And then gives in and says they can move in after so resolutely saying they can't, so they think they've won. I don't get or understand her logic for that.

They're moving in on HER terms though. She's not going to let them freeload.

Yeah, untill they do the,

Short of rent this month, business is slow.

Would you throw US and AMY onto the streets.

And that is what they"ll do once they're in, just use the threat of amy homeless to stop stupid dreary throwing them out. Both of which she's pulled before.

She DID see through their scam! I think their actions showed her how strongly they felt about the proposed move in. What was all the business about "they tried to butter me up with a new TV" she made it quite plain to them in the previous episode a new TV may make her warm to the idea.

Why on earth do they want to live with her though and particularly Rob. He's used to having his own space and as was pointed out is in his thirties so why would he want to move in to a dreary 2 up 2 down house share with even more dreary Deirdre. Having said that maybe he's had a knock to the head or something as he is actually going out with Tracey and why oh why would a man like him do that

It wasn't so long ago that Rob resisted the idea of Tracey moving in with him at his flat. He doesn't strike me as the type of man who would enjoy hanging out with his inlaws or be a step parent to his GF's offspring. It's all a bit farcical, rather like Tracey's general behaviour

I was so mad when Deidre said the vile pair could move in; she should have called the police and had them arrested. I hope Ken is able to return soon and throw them out.

Deirdre was always going to let them move in, she was just teaching them a lesson in the process - firstly by using their smarmy charm-offensive to get a nice new telly for free - then dishing out the sharp shock of saying "no" together with a few home truths for Rob.

Now they'll be toeing the line, paying proper rent, whilst under no illusions who's calling the shots.

Crafty Deirdre played them like a fiddle.


(The "break-in" stuff was ridiculous though, but as I love Deirdre I'm prepared to let that slide)

The only space is Rob is used to is a 6' x 8' prison cell!

Having been released, he has freeloaded of Carla (and now Tracy) ever since.

How cool is he eh?

Freeloaded off Tracy? Who, the one who dumps Amy on Deirdre all the time and despite being in her late 30s still lives with her mother in a small little house. He never freeloaded off Carla, he kept her business above the water whilst she went off with Peter to America.

We couldn't get 'Tracy Luv' into trouble now could we? Its Rob who is the bad influence. Tracy does no wrong, the poor lass is easily led astray.

Deirdre is just an awful cartoon character now, acting like an idiotic comedy character every episode. Deep underneath she is still the dumb spineless woman who lets Tracy walk over her.

Oh please! What the hell remote idea did he ever have about running a business? Robbing a business yes, (as he soon proved), but running one?

And as for Tracyluv, OK, she has freeloaded off men or her parents all her life - it's what she does and she won't ever change, but ex-convict, no-hoper, loser Rob is using her just for sex and so is no better than she is.

Most likely the side-effects of the back room/pub toilet schism nobody in Coronation Street's noticed yet. That and the 80 Rothmans she gets through in a day.

I too am having trouble understanding the motivation for this one. Especially now that he has cheated on Tracey with Tina it seems even less likely that he would give up his own flat to move in with her, her daughter and her mother. He's obviously not 100% happy in the relationship so it makes no sense. I suppose it is giving Dierdre something else to do whilst Ken is away though other than sitting at the end of a bar like a lush.

Isn't Amy living in the pub with Liz and Steve? In which case, Tracy can't use her as a threat
