I'm from Yorkshire and yes we said lugs for hair tangles and lugoles for ears!

But we called a ginnel a snicket. Around here (South manchester) they call breadcakes barms, I hate asking for a chip barm instead of a butty!

I think language is the one thing corrie do reasonably well. I just wish they had some Polish representation, there are lots of Poles in S Mancchester and it would be good to see it reflected in the show.

Assuming that car park was on private land I thought it was against the law to wheel clamp a car these days.

The morals in corrie would do credit to an alley cat.

Wonder what Todd is doing for a living seeing as Phelan's deal went under. Now both him and Billy are unemployed. Of course being Coronation Street work is always across the road if they need it.

I can recall Aiden and Mike's son (whatever he is called) who is the third?

Are both Todd & Phelan living at Eileen's rent free? How ironic is that!

To be fair to the lovely lovely Michelle, she only knows about two of them.

Was tonight the first time Liam had seen his aunty Michelle in years? I couldn't believe my eyes. Liam is so lucky to have her as his not even part time aunty!

What's Peter living on? Fresh air? How could he afford presents for Simon?

What do we normally call cavities in Britain?

I thought cavities was the correct word.

And another thing on this same scene.... The Policewoman asked Daniel what his mum was wearing, when she left home six years ago, and he started with

"A pair of black pants"



How did he know what colour his mum's underwear was? (unless it was that weird thing about CS referring to trousers as pants again?
)”


Pants can mean trousers. It's not like he said underpants.

I could just about accept Aiden/Eva and Kirk/Beth if it wasn't for the writers insisting on playing up the idiocy factors of Eva and Kirk too.

The lack of believable couples, the plot-holes, the ludicrously accelerated story pacing and interminable character personality changes are more suited to a cartoon than a long-established, professional, continuing drama series.

Excellent charcaterisation used to be a such hallmark of Corrie but not any more and it pains me that we're so unlikely to see such quality pairings as the likes of Stan/Hilda, Jack/Vera or even Alf/Audrey ever again.”

Agree with what you say. CS will be missing a trick if they don't pair Brian and Mary up though - 2 of a kind and, surely, destined to be each other's half?

As if that story hasn't been done to death before.

And the usual co-incidental characters being seen - Aiden see Maria and Adam, Nick sees Leanne and Peter.

Yawn
!”

Always, and yet Caz came and went about the street as she pleased, in broad daylight, and NO-ONE saw her! No, I'm just not having it, utter tripe!

And since Billy is now an ex-vicar he will no longer be entitled to live in the vicarage so that will no doubt mean he will be moving into Eileen's.

What a load of nonsense. Maria slept with Aidan, then dumped Luke in August. That's was the last time she was with either of those two intimately - 4 months ago so hardly a few weeks. So in fact Maria has only slept with 1 man "in the last few weeks " - Adam. She's hardly a slag.

Doesn't look like we're ever going to find out where Caz's secret spying bolt-hole flat was or how she appeared so instantaneously at Maria's door.

The way Leanne was walking last night, it looked like she was giving birth walking!

Is it normal practice to get clamped in a multi story car park? I know they were in a disabled bay but all the car parks I have been in , you pay on the way out. I thought clamping was illegal now anyway.

She never just appeared at the door, she appeared in the front room like magic

Clamping is illegal on private land, car parks are normally classed as private land unless its a local authority car park

But pretty horrible to sleep with her friend's partner. Isn't this a bit out of character?
