Sally is technically guilty of theft the parcel would have had the Nazir's name and address on it, not only that when signing for the parcel they would have had to sign twice once for their parcels and again for the Nazir's parcel since it would have been a separate consignment, it was made quite clear by the delivery man that parcel was for the Nazir's.

Not an SOR, and probably been mentioned on other threads which I can't be bothered to read, but the producers obviously weren't happy with Paula Lane leaving, making her lay in a coffin!!!
A pity there was no f@rt machine or a whoopee cushion; or perhaps there was. I bet the out-takes were hilarious

Just a quick question....

Kylie was murdered on Friday and her body released on Wednesday. This seems very quick - is this likely?

apparently on brookside they were so pissed with an actress leaving they had her in a coma for six months before killing her off so the actress spent her last six months there lying comatised in a hospital bed

If Amy was going to Simon's for tea why did they go to her house first.

and those two liking each other is an SOR as Amy is usually a total bitch to Simon

Why did Tim not tell the Nazir's that he had taken in a parcel for them?
And why did Tim invite the Nazir's for drinks?

Could it be that Yasmeen will see her throw at Sally's when she pops round for drinkies and therefore ensuring more golden Corrie comedy?

Ever since they changed Amy into a smart arse there's something about her acting that makes her very unlikeable.

If they ever remove the Duckworth Museum I might fall of my chair

Not much of the caserole pot drama made sense to me, why didnt they just hand it over to Yasmeen? Would she really not have looked for a card before ranting on the phone?


Would you have to have planning permission to blow it up?
No, but they would need permission from The National Trust before even thinking of touching Vera's cocktail bar or Jack's shitty pigeon coop. The house should really have one of those blue plaques saying 'The Duckies Lived Here'!

Yes maybe a little quick for not unusual.
. As it was a sudden and violent death then a post mortem would be needed by the Coroner.Once he is has determined the cause of death the body would then be released and the findings handed to the police for evidence. The Coroner also has a copy for the Inquest
If the Post Mortem doesnt reveal a positive reason then the body cannot be buried as a death certificate wouldnt be issued until after the Inquest

Of course that is what going to happen, no doubt Sally and Yasmeen will end up playing comedy tug -of- war with it and it will end up torn in half.

They could have it collapse like No.7 did due to a faulty beam.

The loft conversion was shoddy work by Todd and Tony. Jason put it right, but he might have missed something.

Did we ever find out if the conversion was actually done in the end, or did Jason just put right what had been damaged?

Definitely a ridiculous SOR, must think none of their viewers have ever had experience of a similar nature.

No!

Corrie wouldn't do something so predictable and naff would they?!!!

I agree. The wisecracks were funny at first but they have gone too far and she comes across as nasty now.
do they really want another character as disliked as tracey?

I also dont think it sits well with the actress, it seems forced. Not everybody can play snidy cow brilliantly and whilst Tracey / Kate can pull it of I dont think Amy / Ellie can.

some had said Amy would be better as a total opposite, like Saffy in Ab-fab, which I agree would play much better, and I think would suit the actress better as well

They are trying to morph Amy into a mini Blanche.

There's something unnatural in how she delivers her one lines; it's always polished perfect like she's an accomplished critic.

Amy always comes across like a bitch, even when apparently trying to be 'nice'. I mean what the hell was up with her line "Your mum is dead. Duh!" I mean seriously, are we meant to find that amusing?

People put down Simon but at least Alex Bain makes the character come across as genuine when upset over something, even during the abuse of Leanne when he clearly hated himself. I can't tell if Amy is meant to care.

they will probably find some kindred spirit over something banal and be friends for life

Whatever she's meant to be doing it just doesn't work.

I also dont think it sits well with the actress, it seems forced. Not everybody can play snidy cow brilliantly and whilst Tracey / Kate can pull it of I dont think Amy / Ellie can.

Ah, Julia Sawalha....
Blanche was much older and much more worldly wise. That's the character of Blanche worked so well. Amy is still just a kid.

She is starting to get a voice, give it a few years and she'll be as disliked as Sophie on here!!!
