Did someone say this week that Leanne's in America, or did I mishear it? If she is, when and why did that happen, and where's the curly demon?
On the subject of children, where were Aldi and Asda supposed to be when Mary and the smooth talker went skipping upstairs? Edit apparently it was Aiden that Eva was having the conversation with |

I noticed that straight away. Why didn't Roy over-ride the script, (as I believe he does from time to time)?

I know!
And whilst Bev Callard's daughter is quite pretty and talented, and I can see why she would be a popular actress without a famous mother; there is no way Poppy Rush would be an actress without her mother being famous! All this nepotism does my head in actually. How the hell is someone with no relatives in the industry meant to make it?! I utterly LOATHE the Connors and all these stupid storylines. And Carla referring to wotshername (who prefers women to men!) as 'you only acted like a little sister' Stupid wishy washy soppy shyte! I watch Jeremy Kyle sometimes, I KNOW that carla would not be welcomed into the family in this manner! I hate Carla now. I used to like the character, when she was with Peter Barlow, but now I loathe her. I agree! And why could Cathy not get out of that flat on her own?! Anyone could have got out of there! How stupid! Exactly! No WAY would Cathy have had those letters! The Connors - doesn't everybody? Corrie present them as such a big powerful family who everyone respects, yet they are such a eff up! That was just absolutely beyond logic. Carla has been completely overused. There's nothing left in that character. Alison King has shown some sense in leaving. |

I'm amazed they don't ALL override the script. Barely a word of it is believable. |

Why did Roy and Cathy come back in a cab? They must have been back to her house as she commented on the state of the living room and surely they'd check the house was secure - so wouldn't Roy have collected his car from there?
Not sure if it's been mentioned already but it's been bugging me for a week now. |

Eva told Aidan that she and Leanne were half-sisters and Aidan asked where their mother (Stella) was at the moment, the answer to which was America

Given the age of Roy's car, would it even need a tax disc?

For tax exempt vehicles you still had to apply for and display a tax disc that showed the payment of £0.00. Applied to those disabled who were exempt too, and also applied to mobility scooters capable of 8mph so they could go on the road. Some local authorities allowed tax exempt disabled who displayed a blue badge and a £0.00 tax disc to park for free when everyone else had to pay. They could also check with DVLA if the vehicle was tax exempt due to disability, but when tax disc were abolished, the DVLA information changed so all tax exempt vehicles are listed as "tax not due". They have removed the "disabled" information because they suddenly decided that it was giving personal information about someone that anyone could see and that's caused some problems for free disabled parking schemes.

Thanks, I obviously wasn't paying enough attention.
I agree, she's very talented, though I have to wonder why, with around five surnames to pick from, she decided on Callard. It seems that all the new actors, especially those who go straight into leading roles, are related to someone already in the business, and usually famous. It does make you wonder how those without such relatives can get parts. Probably the most spiteful think gordon brown ever did as chancellor. It used to be that all cars 25 years or more old were exempt from road tax. In 1997, within weeks of labour getting in, GB froze it so that it applied only to cars registered in 1974 or earlier. That must have saved, oh, hundreds of pounds.

They cock up so often on Corrie it is laughable and also embarrassing. Although that bloke at Corrie never admits that they've made a balls up of it. We should bombard him with emails of different cock-ups.

wikipedia says Rebecca Callard took her stepdad's name when she was about 12 in 1989, so presumably this was before she was an actress anyway. It also says she was born Rebecca Atkinson which was apparently was Bev's married name to her husband that she divorced before Rebecca was even born (not her dad), so possibly not surprising she didn't want to keep a surname that didn't have anything to do with her?
or she could have have just thought it sounded good, yes

All this nepotism does my head in actually. How the hell is someone with no relatives in the industry meant to make it?! Because.........like, producers realy cast little kids in their shows without meeting their parents or doing any background checks or anything. |

Glad to see Anna & Kevin together. I think she is a great actress and hope she gets some happy storylines for a change, without the dreadful Faye!
