Apart from Steph having, ever, a single expression and single tone of voice, the whole scene was just silly.
Steph interrupting, deciding to call the arsonist in to "mediate", to the agreement that Nick would buy a 50% share. I've no idea how many management decisions need to made in running a restaurant, but it must run into hundreds a day. How can equal partners make joint decisions? And how do they deal with problems with the staff? They'd both need to be involved. |

I know full well that my memory is not as good as it used to be, but can anyone explain why Leanne is referred to as an arsonist? I cannot recall her ever starting fires.

If it is an electric shower, which would be very likely in this type of property, and it is fed directly from the mains water supply, any interruption to the supply would cause an instant rise in temperature. Can cause scalding in serious cases.

Turning the taps on and making the shower go cold? That's an ancient gag, it was hardly invented by The Simpsons...

I don't like Steph at the best of times but she really annoyed me tonight! Why the hell was she standing around listening to her boss's conversation with Nick??? It's NONE of her business, can you really see a boss allowing his staff to do that? And she also kept butting in, how rude! And as for that permanent frown UGH.

Would it be easier and quicker to list the non annoying characters?
We have the strong female bitchy entrepreneur airhead stereotypes We have the male panto villian dumb henpecked stereotypes We have the seniors caring nosey interferring stereotypes We have the Barlows/MacDonalds/Platts We have the pregnancy secret We have the past secret We have the factory We have an octogenarian up a mountain in Peru Nuff said ![]() ![]() ![]() Quote:
A similar scene has been done in the Simpsons way before it was done in Corrie, maybe that's where Corrie get their inspiration from for stories.

Has johnny bought carla's flat? In the space of two days? Or has he merely usurped it?

What an awful thing to happen to poor Phelan, boo hoo! Naughty Todd. I suppose someone thought it funny if he made an awful racket that could be heard throughout the house. Perhaps even a viewer. |

Last night's episode was so contrived, with little incidents all making Eva misunderstand the flat situation - you could see the levers moving and the engine groaning.
Wouldn't you think that by now Corrie characters would know never to arrange a surprise event? It always goes horribly wrong, with someone getting the wrong end of the stick and jumping to daft conclusions. |

Thanks for that, I cannot recall that at all, mind you I have problems remembering what happened last Monday, so no wonder actions 10 years ago are completely forgotten!
