Re: Coronation Street

I thought that it was unbelievable that none of the prospective apartment buyers investigated the progress of the 'building works'. Somebody in the writers' room slipped up there ! Some of the story lines are quite ludicrous! Would never happen in real life, so why can't the writers write about stuff that can actually happen ?

I think I must be a masochist ! Coronation Street is total rubbish really, can be compulsive viewing for all that, if only to find out what ludicrous incidents occur in the next installment ! I have to say, in it's defence, that there are one or two good acting bits, and probably those are the times that carry this soap on and keep it going !

It is good that the producers keep a couple of 'light' characters in the series, as they offset the black doom-laden aspects of some of the storylines. Like Mary and Norris in Coronation Street. Rita used to be prominent with her hilarious 'one liners', but for some reason she seems to have been pushed onto a back burner, which is a shame.

There needs to be more amusing scenes in Coro !

Re: Coronation Street

So the Virgin Mary raped by the vicar has a son. I supposed he is called Jesus.
Oh for goodness sake, whatever next?

Re: Coronation Street

No Emjay - he's called Jude and he's in Corrie over Christmas.

It didn't take long for her to find him did it?

Re: Coronation Street

I like the idea of a naughty vicar character on Coronation Street.

It reminds me of how we learnt how to make a moving 'naughty vicar' model out of a cigarette packet when I was a young man! I wonder if anyone else remembers that.

Re: Coronation Street

Do tell !!

Re: Coronation Street

I thought the vicar in Corrie was supposed to be gay? Or is Mary a man in disguise ?

Re: Coronation Street

I'd forgot about him, haven't seen him for ages.


Well blow me, talk of the devil as they say . . . he's on the screen now, as I type!

BTW, where is Steve supposed to be this time?

Re: Coronation Street

And guess what he's doing with his boyfriend!

Re: Coronation Street

Actually, I remember now it was called the 'randy vicar'.

My memory is dim now, but I do remember it was the inner sleeve of a cigarette packet, they type that folded up and tucked in at the top and bottom. I don't think they do them like that now, though.

You fold it in half, lengthwise, and tear/cut half-way in, upwards from the bottom up to the second fold. Then when you pull down the bottom (his legs)... er... something happens.

Re: Coronation Street

I don't think we need to see it TBH. I know it's not PC but Id rather not see it THanks all the same.
