Total SOR. How can a very obvious female go shopping with a credit card in the name of Steven MacDonald? Even if she knows his PIN even the most dimwit of shop assistants would realise that a possible fraudulent transaction was taking place!
Not sure I follow. How many shop assistants check the card before you put it in the machine like they are supposed to? |

I find it hard to believe that Steve can't cook. He has run pubs that serve food since he was a teenager. What was all that crap with Michelle outside in the beer garden having a heart to heart with Amy. Completely shallow...'but I do love him. And I couldn't find a dress in town. But I won't go in and eat me dinner....'. No one gives a flying fart luv unfortunately, and Steve neither, Steve is so just going through the motions of someone pretending to care in order to just keep the peace.
This is supposed to be Michelle having some sort of crisis or an epiphany of some sort, yet it comes across as a sulky mood trying to delay the stupid dinner to make a stupid point that is so unclear Steve will never get it. Steve and Michelle have run their course, there is zero chemistry between them. Both of them act clunky with each other - it is so forced. Jack and Vera, they ain't. And never will be. |

Exactly, you dont hand over a card to anyone anymore, you just slot it in the machine.
I'm not keen on contactless cards either because you don't even need to have a PIN to use them, but apparently you can get a wallet which will block the signal so it can't be read by fraudsters with a scanner. |

What is the point of that widower that appeared on the street. Was he brought in to keep Ken in a permanent state of angst wondering if he is going to throw his leg over heart throb Audrey or his Harley Davidson and then leave town never to be seen or heard of again. Strange day's indeed.

I think it's insulting to the actor as well. I dont talk to babies in a baby voice let alone people with down syndrome or any other mental health issue for that matter
I do agree that Anna talks patronisingly to Alex, but I see that more as bad acting on her part. She seems to over-react in most situations. |

Sean and his holiday. I only ever book hols online and was wondering will a travel agent in the high street hold a holiday without paying a deposit? Also what was all the fuss about 'We've lost the holiday'? There must heaps of hols still available

talking of holidays, how come Ches can just decide to stay in Portugal a bit longer? hasn't he got a job? and a flight home booked? must have money to burn.
as for Erica and 'Liz gave me a key', well I have a key to my neighbour's house so I can gather up the mail while theyre away, doesn't mean I just let myself in when I fancy it ![]() ETA - although I'm sure the producers do indeed read this thread as all of a sudden Ches is using a messenging service on the internet rather than a landline

Down's syndrome isn't a mental health issue. It has nothing whatsoever to do with mental health. Just like people without DS, people with DS may or may not have mental health problems, though all those I know have a robust attitude to life and pretty high self-esteem.

I know. You only have to go onto the internet or open a newspaper to find a cheap sun holiday for a week, especially in May. Billy seems to have time to sit around in the Rovers all day when Jason and Todd, yet is super busy when Sean is looking for him.
Mind you, it gave Sean a little SL and the chance to overact!

Eileen said Jason is sensitive and caring. Er, it's only a little while ago Jason was chucking Gemma out and Eileen was commiserating with her!

I am 6 foot 2 and 16.5 stone and built like the proverbial brick **** house. No fat on me. I believe that I am taller than Tony but of course could be proved wrong. Even if he was 6 foot 4, he definitely is not 20 stone in weight. |
