I loved Blanche's reading, Grinding Hard. Sounds more exciting than Hard Grinding. With the book club stuff, and Roy and Chesney, nothing's really happening like in the old days but it's more enjoyable.

Blanche is like Ena Sharples and she's one of my all-time faves. Tells it how it is. Must be a fire sign! LOL!

Like the scene with Liz
Liz: How do I look?
Blanche: Like a prostitute.
Ken + Deidre: BLANCHE!
Blanche: You were all thinking it - I just said it.
Priceless because it was true

Another inspired casting duo by Corrie. Lots of mileage here I think. Trying to pretent Cilla was starving him so he could be a jockey. ;D Did Roy and Hayley get banned from fostering after the incident with the little boy and his mum who were escaping his violent father? |

I don't think so. I think it was their decision to stop but i wouldn't swear to it.

The fostering storyline was good, and it brought Fizz into the Street, and so ultimately Cilla and Chesney. By the way, how many bedrooms are there supposed to be in that tiny flat above the caff?

No idea. But we know every building is a Tardis, with the old Rovers being the main one! LOL!

i think Tony Warren's done well bringing back comedy BUT I'm getting a bit annoyed how he's using the psyco thing all the time: Richard...Maya...Charlie. I definitely agree with this Alex-more comedy and less psycho storylines!!!  |

It's much more enjoyable when there's just average stuff going on like the old days of nattering in the street or the factory girls gossiping.

Ernie Bishop. But it was more community in those days. So deaths were rarer and more of a shock (unless the actor had really died). Now it's the norm as is brain dead storylines.

Yes too much death and it will be depressing, we have just had 1 death and we have another 2 coming up in a few weeks.

No offence to anybody who lives in Southport, but tonight's episode has not made me want to rush to visit it! The most entertaining thing was Reet's bearskin!

Well done Pearly - seen as you are a barmaid that will be a G+T for me and a V+T for Rita. ;D
Tonights episode was very good, I liked the scenes in Southport, LOL at Reet, Norris, Deirdre and Emily, Reet wanted to finish the game and head for the nearest pub for a voddy - I could tell.
Chesney was really good tonight too - fancy Reet giving him something for nothing!

I will gladly serve all of you if you are over 18 and the words 'have one for yourself,luv' are always on your lips. Only Mike Baldwin ever says 'Keep the change', the others are all tight. If they can afford to booze in there every night, they can buy the poor bar staff a drink!

Norra chance, Jezzkiekins. Chesney can't read. But, just to be on t'safe side, I got a felt tip pen in t'same colour and blanked it out. If I've got to pay for owt, once I've recovered from me seizure, I put the cost onto people's paper bills. Gorra think of me profits, yer know. That and the vodka are what's most important. if I don't get me vodka, I'll die. Me vodka's like blood to a vampire. How else do yer think I'm immortal? Now, where's that lovely and RICH Mick Baldwin? Gorra snare him fast! ;D

Don't ask for a tip from me or I'll stop drinking there, profits will nosedive and Shelley'll be forced to sack yer when Charlie lets her have mind control back. Patsy |
