Sarah/Jason stuff still boring the pants off me.
Why have the writers created this new love triangle when we've just got over the Danny/Leanne stuff (although admittedly that was more of a love square!)

The Dev/Sunita stuff seems like it'll be quite good.

Carol really looked great tonight! Still think her acting's slightly dodgy though...

I'm intrested to see what the guy in the cafe is up to...

I have to say that I don't think Sarah and Jason have any sexual chemistry whatsoever I know they date in real life but I think the characters are so unbelieveable together that the real life chemistry doesn't translate on the screen. Jason and Violet on the otherhand have a lot of chemistry together as a couple. I wish TPTB were keeping them together without Sarah's involvement Once Violet finds out about Jason's dalliance with Slapper Platt, I think they will split up for good I can't see Violet forgiving Jason after all the fuss he made about her kiss with Charlie!

What I really mean is this:

When a couple are thrown together and kissing starts you know that they only kiss for the script and, sometimes, the actors don't quite feel comfortable kissing each other and it shows.
However, as Sarah & jason date each other in real life, when they kiss, they kiss and it adds a little buzz to the scenario and it looks totally realistic and sexy

I like all three but they should have a different storyline.

Lol, that's very true!!

Her and Jason do work well together though. But I hope she doesn't take him back. I like what she does when she finds out though Apparently:

Spoiler


Hehehe

Boring tonight I have to say. The Roy bit wasn't funny at all and Carol's annoying me now aswell.

Jason & Sarah isn't really that interesting either. I much prefer Jason with Violet. She's just a nicer person than Sarah.

He hasn't got any other wife, he's just got lots of ex's, kids and a grandkid!

I read she was 15. He probably has GOT a 9 year old, I mean he's got one older than 15 cos he's a Grandad, so they probably got confused, saying this was the 9 year old when she's clearly the 15 year old.

Yes she's clearly not 9, she's a teenager.

Well I was just relieved we didn't get to see Big Phil with his tongue down Gail's throat in that ep.

I think the Sarah/Jason stuff is good. I will be interested to see Violet's reaction when she finds out, glad they are giving Jenny Platt some decent scenes now.

Saw a clip of Sunita confronting Dev this morning. Although it is a bit of an overegged storyline, she will be brilliant in it I am sure. I don't know why they needed to give him four kids, surely one or two would have been enough! What a shame Sunita is leaving - I don't understand why they axed her. She is a very good actress and the character had a lot more mileage in her.

Not a bad episode tonight, lovely to see Carol back, she looks well, and yes does look attractive.

Sarah and Jason storyline is boring though
I tought that he looked like the crazy bad cop in the film Leon.

Corrie is just getting worse and worse it seems.

Im disgusted with the writer that they have let one of my favourite soaps wallow in the gutter.

Somebody call the local education authority quick

Another one's loose....

I think whereever it said Amber is supposed to be 9 is probably a mistake, as she clearly can't be any younger than 12.

Thin Sarah is pushing Jaosn too much, but I did find it highly amusing that she went through about four different outfits in one day. No wonder Gail is stressed if Sarah is piling up that much washing for her!

Thanks Marty, I'm glad it wasn't just me who thought that. Within 60 seconds of his appearance that was exactly what I was saying to my other half. Where exactly will this story lead?? Roy's Rolls for a Michelin Star anyone!!

I enjoyed the episode, really liking the Dev/Sunita stuff, also like Amber. The man talking to Roy was very like Charlie Stubbs, didn't get it though.
Sarah and Jason were OK, Sarah is annoying me a lot though!

7/10

I just took it as a meeting of two... erm.... 'minds', didn't think it was supposed to be funny.
Amusing maybe ??

Yes, I think he was supposed to be an upmarket version of Roy - and they did have a look of each other. Someone else said he looked like Charlie Stubbs - and it has been remarked in the past that Charlie looks like Roy, so that makes sense.

I assume it will 'go' somewhere - Roy and Hayley asked to his restaurant perhaps.

I reckon Roy will get more influencial people in his cafe, more high brow people looking for a low brow breakfast. Non Weatherfiled clientel for example
