there has been no mention of an arranged marriage for any members of the Nazir family but although on the decrease it still occurs amongst Pakistani families in the Manchester area
a friend of mine had his bride found for him by his uncle, the senior male in the family and i recall him meeting several young women whom he did not know from all parts of England and one from Glasgow too over the period of a couple of months. he had the final choice himself so it was not forced. the sheer number of potential brides together with what he told me about how they were being put on to a short list for him by the family indicated that it is still a common practice for bride and groom. the fiasco we saw was totally unrealistic but i wonder if arranged marriage was a subject that they might not to feature as too touchy and so chose the ridiculous instead. |

Why would they? Ken never had further contact with Lawrence due to his homophobia and Lawrence was annoyed with Ken, and James tried to rob Ken before attacking him and going on the run.
They were two characters simply introduced to have Bill Roache's sons on the show. They have no real importance on the history of the show. Why wouldn't they? This is a forum called SOR and I think we all agree that Corrie producers/script writers bring back all sorts of irrevelant characters for any reason they choose. In your opinion just what characters have "real importance on the history of the show". As they are Ken's son and grandson then you would think they would have been mentioned. Daniel and Adam have (re)appeared from nowhere. |

Now, now. It will be flowers from Tracy, hairdo at Audrey's, reception at Nick's Bistro and if needed cars from Steve and Tim. Is the bistro licensed for weddings yet? It would save Corrie a lot of fannying about and bother by going to a registry office/set.

Both Sally and Tim and Carla and Nick were married in the Bistro.
What do you remember about Rana and her parents? Was there the hint of some deep, dark secret or scandal? I thought there was a suggestion that her mother was the woman having an affair with Sharif. Quote:

LOL! It was hilarious the way the door opened and she rushed in!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() Aidan rushed off to Maria's flat, then rushed to get her out of prison and was nearly snogging her face off in the car outside thre Rovers. You'd think Eva might just have had the teensiest inkling by now that her boyfriend might have more than a friendly interest Maria's welfare. ![]() ![]() And then there's allotment SL. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz |

The simply fact is the likes of Lawrence and James were simply brought in for the novelty of having Roache's real life sons (with the latter getting a slightly extended stint in 2011). If these random pair haven't been seen for six years or mentioned at all, it is clear the producers aren't interested. Just like they aren't interested with Michelle's "real" son. |

I wondered about that and about Caz's arrest but not being an expert in law, I didn't dare say owt.

Losttripper is partly right. If Maria ( we dont know because we havent been shown) had been to Magistrates to enter a plea then Maria would have needed permission from a Judge to be released on bail. This is called JC (her Solicitor seeing a judge in chambers).

And Caz's arrest? She has committed crimes but are they considered serious?
.Its an an offence if you make the police think that there is a real danger of safety of a person under ( i think) the criminal law act 1967. This doesnt actually carry a hefty penalty, upto 6 months in prison. Possibly Perverting The Course Of Justice . If you make a false allegation which risks the arrest or wrongful conviction of an innocent person its enough for a charge. However Caz hasnt made an allegation but her actions have led to allegations. Perverting The Course of Justice carries a life sentence |

After the plea is entered a Magistrate has no power whatsoever over the proceedings and advice would have to be taken from a Crown Court Judge You are right, it has been very sloppily written. Again, if a plea has been entered then release would be within 2 hours of a Judge agreeing. At this stage charges arent dropped. JC is slang? I do not want to derail this wonderful thread so will agree to differ. |

I really dont know where you studied. However, her first appearance at Magistrates would be to enter her name. At this point the Prosecution would demand that she was held under Police Bail (up to 6 weeks maximum). Once charges were ready she would then be called back to court to enter a plea.

JC is slang? i find your comments amusing and am grateful that the courts and police are bound by legislation, notably p.a.c.e. and the bail acts and going a bit further the common law following the magna carta and the basic human rights of habeas corpus rather than what you have picked up on your travails. jc is a term that is not used by lawyers |

Zeedan is a beautiful looking man with the most kissable lips, but there's only so much "surly" that a character can be! The writers need to tone him down.

The whole thing is beyond ridiculous, from Caz texting Kate, to suddenly appearing in the doorway, Kate identifying a website Caz had used once before and Caz showing her the webcam that supposedly sat on a shelf that no-one had noticed. Did the writers really sit around and decide that was a great finale and a brilliant way of bringing it to a conclusion? How old are they? Five?

![]() ![]() I thought they said the locks had been changed. Wasn't she in her bedsit or whatever watching what was going on at Maria's and then when Aidan left she rushed over? That still doesn't answer how she got into Maria's flat though.

Any thoughts about that weird scene with Rana pretending she was looking for a book at the doctors?
It looked like she grabbed a few boxes of medication. Please say she's not going to suddenly have a blink and you'll miss it addiction. Not sure why it would only come up now just because babies have been mentioned. She had no problem when she accepted Zeedan's proposal and went through with marrying him, despite Zeedan's trust issues after Shariff's affair. Wouldn't she have felt guilty before now to keep something from him after the knock he's suffered?
