Does anyone have any thoughts on where this storyline is going? Or is it just an injection of much needed humour?

It did my head in when he was arguing with Kylie over her parcel, whilst the delivery guy was at his front door... So annoying

It's a bit of a pointless plot, how long has it gone on for now 3 weeks?

Wouldn't they have just given up trying to deliver it now and asked him to collect it? It all seems too far fetched.

It is beginning to wear a bit thin now but Norris is always good for a bit of comedy!! The contents when we do find out seems a bit of a far fetched s/l too!!

Why doesn't he just get red carded or get it delivered to work like every other sod?

Does it contain the actor's P45? That would be a nice surprise.

What with his parcel and the equally unfunny Mary's hissy fit at not being taken to a party followed up with a "hilarious" allergic reaction, I sometimes think this programme is targeted at 8 year olds.

I actually like this storyline, especially the scene in the depot on Friday, but is there any reason we couldn't have had that scene 3 weeks ago? It's the same joke in every episode.

Corrie really, desperately needed another astronomer since Curly left, though!!!! Wonder if he'll take Mary upstairs to "view his telescope" like Curly did with Raquel!! Lol!!

Oh boy I was so disappointed! The parcel storyline has kept me wondering for weeks. I thought it might have been something really random like a free poster he won in a competition as a runner up prize

The best bit of the whole storyline for me was the guy at the delivery office who was a busybody and pedantic and when asked his named he replied 'Morris'

Norris' half-brother died about 4 years ago; are we supposed to believe that the parcel has been in transit all that time?

It seems like a lot longer than 3 weeks tbh lol...it is kind of a funny SL to be honest, but with the same punch line & humour in every episode (as an FM has said, already), in which Norris and his parcel features, it just has the habit of wearing a bit thin, imo. Still it's been mildly amusing, at times though
