It's just a shame it wasn't Marlon, really.

I would have loved to have seen her trying to bury him under a pile of twigs and leaves.

LOL that would have been hilarious, I would have enjoyed that almost as much as I enjoyed celebrating the Cavs championship this week.

That was unforgivable. Not so much because of the dead dog but because it provoked Marlon's maniacal wailing afterwards.

All was forgiven when Laurel punched him, that is one of the greatest moments in soap history.

It truly is.

Let us relive that moment now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i89ap9G65xk

Agreed

Time for the human beanpole to die and stop ruining every character he interacts with.

1. He wasn't that small in fact I think he was bigger than Callum on Corrie. Plus drug dealers come in all shapes and sizes. Remember Kim Tate was Izzy's plug on Corrie

3. She's gotten slightly better, but the character still very unsympathetic and her motives are not clear. Does she want Cain, does she want to destroy her mom's marriage or does she just want to get high?


4. Adam was just looking out for his wife, your precious Victoria.

7. It should be shut up Belle

8. Rakesh is going get a pallet dropped on him just like James did.

9. What they should have done was have Finn make an Uber type app, and do that type of taxi service.

12. I'm sure all the Rakesh lovers on here will tell you why

Also congrats to all of you on the Brexit.....that is a good thing right?
She is seriously awful, all she does is whinge on and on about nobody trusting her then goes and proves exactly why nobody should . She's also blackmailed her mother into always siding with her and leaping to her defence by trying to overdose herself a few weeks ago, so now Moira is too afraid to give her what for . Horrible dreadful troublemaking waste of space she is, Moira should throw her out on her scrawny arse and wash her hands of her.

Thank you, and yes it is, the best thing that could have happened, we've got our voice and freedom back. We should have an Independence Day like you lot now

I disagree Mark, Laurel's alcoholism and Holly's drug addiction aren't really comparable.

A alcohol addiction can creep up on you, whereas a drug addiction is ultimately down to a choice someone makes and therefore makes it harder to empathise with the addictee. Adding to that there's a stigma against drug addicts to begin with, it's difficult to connect but I think Sophie does a great job - and while I can't understand the struggle, I can empathise and pity her as she struggles to control her addiction.
I think it depends on the reason for the addiction. Some people try drugs for fun and get addicted, others try them as a means of self-esteem medicating ( I' d bet this is more common) and dealing with mental health and emotional issues. I think with Holly it started off as fun but now it's s away of coping with the things that have happened which she has struggled with.

I don't disagree with that at all.

Call it Cameron's revenge for when Marlon interrupted his killing.

Or Laurel's revenge for the emotional abuse he inflicted on her by being in love with his dying ex-wife and his dead wife before that etc.

Either way, he deserved what he got.

As fast as she poked one limb under the twigs, another would have popped out! Later on, under the full moon, he could have risen like Frankenstein's monster, and lurched off through the woods, arms outstretched before him.

8 - That's the surveyor's job. If it hasn't been done, sue.
All houses for sale must have a Home Report.

Didn't the coalition government abolish home reports as one of the first things they did on coming into office in 2010?

That said, anyone not having a survey undertaken when buying a new house is taking a great risk - I suspect that Rakesh omitted this important detail and is now paying the price. He should have known better, as a solicitor.

It sounds as if Jimmy's post flood plasterers were cowboys!

Not any more. Home Information Packs were stopped a few years ago. An Energy Performance Certificate is still compulsory but that's it. It's up to prospective purchasers to appoint a surveyor to carry out an inspection of the property. If they don't and they find something wrong with it after contracts are exchanged then it's too late.

Working in the conveyancing department of a firm of solicitors has its uses!
