Can I just saw "PHWOARRRRRR!!" at David's chiseled physique with just a tiny towel to cover his modesty What a gorgeous hunk he is! It is a SOR that Kylie was able to resist the urge to rip the towel off him

Maybe that is how Kylie dies she chokes on her own vomit from seeing too much of diddy David with his kit off, did he shower in Tango as he did look a bit orange?

simon calls leanne mum like all soap characters instantly do the moment they become adopted or find out the person is their real parents.
see tracey/ken, ashley/fred, mike/danny (baldwin) .
I expect Max to suddenly start calling david dad the moment the adoption papers are through
the only exception to the rule seemed to be the battersby kids, Leanne never called Janice mum and Toyah never called Les dad”
Yet Leanne talking to Eva, called Stella "Stella". Mind you, it's such an unlikely scenario, even she probably can't believe she was supposed to be Michelle Collins' daughter and maybe we are supposed to pretend that whole stupid s/l never happened.

But strangely enough even though they do happen in other soaps only the corrie ones have a thread dedicated to them.

Gail says she can't remember when she felt so happy and relaxed. Has she forgotten her daughter is in a psychiatric unit?
The other day the new bishop said he'd get the corkscrew, how did he know where it was? Why was he banging on the door when later on Todd rang the doorbell?”
To many cliches. Steph finding the pregnancy kit, Ken walking in on Audrey and Freddie. But not just walking in on them, walking in on them just as they embrace so he gets the wrong idea and leaves. It only feels like a few of weeks ago when Billy embraced Todd in the street, and Sean conveniently appeared and spotted them.
Initially I didn't mind the idea of Ken and Audrey getting together or having some companionship, but I am really past caring. It is also another plot that seems dropped for months, and then out of nowhere resurfaces, but again goes nowhere as they always find a way to put it on hold.
And about the Caz debacle, I was really surprised Sophie didn't appear at the Bistro and look smug whilst she was being questioned.

Thanks. Didn't put the Thread title and SOR together, DURR

Each time someone came in, I was thinking "It's going to be Sophie", but in the end it was just Kirk, for no apparent reason other than to drop Sophie in it....

I was glad Sophie didn't appear. I don't like Caz but I don't want to see Sophie's smug triumphant face as she knows her plan to mess up Caz and Kate's relationship is falling into place.

The stuff with Dev waking up next to Mary and his reaction, I guessed I was supposed to be rolling on the floor laughing at that one but unfortunately when Corrie tries to do comedy it falls on its face. And seriously, how does anyone even like Dev? Aside from his terrible acting and need TO GET LOUD AND DRAMATIC FOR NO REASON! He's such a smug slimy creep of a bloke. I'd have thought 99.9% of women would run a mile from him.
No the hilarity in Corrie is the unintentional stuff. Like Macca who looked at least slightly menacing in the funeral episode but now looks like a complete clown in that t-shirt and acts like a buffoon. Then of course we have his mate who looks like a throwback from an 80's boy band. "If you don't give us a free kebab, we're going to mildly irritate you for the afternoon!" Then there boy band member was, throwing chillies in the street...quick someone call the police!!
Billy's character is laughably bad. This is the local vicar who people supposedly turn to for advice and support....yet he's more messed up than anyone else! This is the guy that felt the need to hide having a drug addict brother (who that would have nothing to do with...the guy makes his own choices so it's not like you'd judge Billy for it) but then ends the relationship with his boyfriend after messing him about and takes up straight away with not only another bloke, but one who is known as trouble, is as good as family to his ex and has the nerve to get it on with him in his ex's house! Billy is clearly very trustworthy and a man of religion. Let's not forget it was he who told Todd first of his interest too so it's not like he has even been swayed.
What the hell ever happened to Gail too? I'm sure I recall her as a bit of a battleaxe from years ago yet now she seems to be permanently either drugged to the eyeballs and/or a complete crackpot!
Everyone fawning over Leanne is also laughable, be it in a work way or love interest. She's definitely long past her better days so I'm not sure why everyone is so keen. Robert and Nick playing sulking children is terrible.
Ken Barlow is just....well, Ken Barlow. Does anyone really care if he ever shacks up with Audrey or not? Or will Freddie the guy who was a nobody but now has set himself up with a job and a whole bunch of new friends move in first?! Can't wait to find out!
Now we've also got Michael back to bumble around the street with the other bumble group like Norris, Gail, Tim, Craig and other random clod's that I can't think of. Just what Corrie clearly needed. Phelan must be quaking in his work boots!”
That scene with Dev waking up to Mary was laughably bad!
Don't see the point of Billy, Todd will chew him up, spit him out when he gets bored of the relationship.
That scene with Leanne drinking red wine in her nighties, listening to recorded messages of men on her phone was sleazy as ****! They may as well have recreated Blind Date and be be done with it!
As for Leanne's pregnancy.......
Spoiler
Turns out Steve is the father (for those who STILL didn't know ), and Michelle will bond with her in the coming episodes! She becomes broody and wants a baby!!!

Not only that but SORs in EE and ED are generally ignored and glossed over and with EE anyone pointing them out pounced on by the rabid Rottweiler EE fans who can't seem to see anything wrong with EE and defending it is a matter of life and death.

I thought it was suspenders of Rosie ( here for the lads )
Has the Army welfare officer just appeared out of the blue or did i miss something? She and Caz seem to be well acquainted judging by their meeting in the Bistro and what was that meeting all about?
I seem to have missed a lot, or has Corrie got it hopelessly wrong in another poorly researched area?
If Caz is a long term absentee (a court martial was mentioned) she would be in some form of arrest at her unit. When a soldier goes AWOL the local civilian police are asked to help locate the soldier at places they are know to go. I don't think that welfare officers get involved in that sort of stuff.
Her ankle seems to be taking a very long time to heal and normal form is for a soldier to recover at their unit on light duties under the care of the Medical Officer. The army have very good medical and physio staff , they have to.

As an ex soldier, I confirm the above. No way would you be allowed to recuperate for so long away from where you are currently serving.
What a gorgeous hunk he is! It is a SOR that Kylie was able to resist the urge to rip the towel off him
SOR means "suspension of reality" , the blunders and unbelievable things that often happen in soaps.
