Less than a week into Ramadan and Kal still hasn't lost any weight........ never mind viewers, let's snuggle up for tonight's offering and see what's "on the menu" for us.......

For an upcoming preview of some new developments coming soon in Tina's murder investigation, CLICK HERE - there's previews of upcoming events in all major soaps, but if you want, just fast-forward to the Corrie bit.




To see a clip of the fabulous Jean Alexander in a timelessly amusing scene from old Corrie, CLICK HERE




The Midweek Ratings Poll will be up as usual after the episode has aired. Last Wednesday's episode, when Carla returned to sort out the factory, scored a rather disappointing 5.72 out of 10 on mean average.

See you later!

Cobbleheads!

July is here so it’s time to start thinking about your team for this month’s Corrie Challenge game.

Don’t worry if you have played before. The game is a bit like a simplified version of Fantasy Football so if you fancy having a go just read the rules below. And, if you're an Emmerdale viewer you can play the Emmerdale version of the game. Just check out any of this week's "Emmerdaily" thread for instructions.

Anyway, it’s a very easy game to play. The object of the game is to pick a team of 11 characters from those listed below which you think will score the more points than the other people playing the game.

Once you’ve whittled your shortlist down to 11 characters you will then need to nominate one of them as Captain. This character will have their score doubled so you’re really looking to identify the character which you think will score the most points during the month to maximise your chances of winning.

Then, simply post your choices on the thread or send them to me via PM, and keep an eye out for the Monday Episode Thread to see how your “team” is doing in the score updates.

The scoring system works as follows:-

+ 1 point per episode appearance

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode.

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode before the break.

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode after the break

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode.

+ 1 point for any kisses on the lips. If you have both characters who kiss in your team each character will receive a point.

+ 2 bonus points for any character that appears in 5 or more episodes during the week. In the event of any episodes being transmitted on a weekend the week will run from Monday to Sunday.

+ Remember that your team Captain gets their score doubled!!!

Once you’ve done all that you can also pick a name for your team. This will be listed in the Score Updates.


Your “Starting List” for July’s Corrie Challenge is as follows:-

• Remember you need to select ELEVEN characters (including a captain) – no more, no less.

Evening Cobbleheads and thanks for the thread Aggie.

Would it be too much to ask for Leanne and Nick to have a civil divorce
instead of the usual "soap divorce".

Just saw that trailer for that new Halle Berry series.

15 month solo mission and she's pregnant. That's the power of Pat Phelan for you.
