I noticed that Lloyd called him Simon. Surprised they didnt have to re shoot that scene.
I also agree about Dev. The character is going nowhere.

Dev hasn't been going anyway for a few years after the Mad Maya stuff, they should've sacked him when they had the chance. (When he was snorting crack cocaine or whatever it was.) Caught up with last weeks but I see I didn't miss much. The Platts saga still keeps me watching, the girl playing Tina is really good. Eileen is still soooo underused! Anyone notice when Ryan was getting out of Nick's car and said goodbye to Nick, he did Liam's little salute thing.  |

David's 'rampage' was a joke - all those people watching: Kevin, Tyrone, Ken, Paul etc. they could have stopped him no bother, but they stood there squawking and doing nothing.Let's hope everyone on the Street is insured, not just Vallandro's!
Gail and Audrey droning on was a bit boring - they should be united in their punishment of David, not nitpicking.
A lot of good comedy tonight:
LOL at Reet and Blanche milking the trauma for all the free doubles they could get in the Rovers!
Karen 'Eat You Dinner' Carpenter!! Cruel, but funny.
LOL at Becky commenting on Roy's droppings collection.

Tonight's episodes:
What was with the obvious shots of the painted backgrounds tonight! Outside the backdoor of the rovers with the backdrop painting of the gate, under the arch when Michelle and Alex were having there chips!
I ashamedly admit to enjoying David's rampage, although Jack could have gave it a bit more welly on the windshields, that was a metal bar he was welding not a baguette! And attacking the bike was silly, loved everything else tough. Couldn't help but laugh with Rita coming out the salon in the middle of her hair colouring (And it still looks bad)
Tyrone is losing his hair fast at the back..
Becky is an infinite pearl of wisdom with her not trusting anything with wings! With the very last scene of Norris/Rita/Blanche/Marcus and Eileen, did anyone notice Eileen desperately trying to keep a straight face when Blanche said "A horse named Audrey?"
Pllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaase do more with Eileen!! I love her to bits!

Jonathan Harvey..THIEF strikes again
Victoria wood as seen on TV 1987:
Julie Walters:I don't want the whole world knowing I'm not a natural conker (talking about getting her hair dyed)
Corrie 2008:
Rita:Now the whole world knows I'm not a natural redhead
I suppose at least he had the good grace to slightly alter the wording...
also in the same sketch Eva Braun was mentioned (Marcus mentioned her too)
Mind you didn't Rita's hair get finished and dried very quickly??

That's because wigs tend to. My hair is usually dry in a couple of hours. I never use a hairdryer. People can be different. Reet's 76 so she's as much a natural redhead at that age as the Queen's a brunette. Patsy |

Cowing hell...a great episode (with the exception of Miss Hell of course).
LOL at Norris Coles line to Kevin..."what did you do? fail his MOT"? LOL!!
Gaiul Gail Gail...when will you ever learn? I luv ya but cowing hell...take Audreys advice and drop the little swine - preferably from a great height.
One little niggle though.....David is only 17. Shouldn`t Gail have been with David at the police station before they tossed him into the cell?
Pats....I never use a hairdryer either and my hair is really thick.

The hairdresser I used to go to said mine was thick but it's not really. I can never do anything with it. Never curls despite mousse, gel, tongs, rollers etc. Have to use a can of lacquer to get it to stay put. Hair slides and grips slide out so I can't put it up, only with a band in bunches or a ponytail. My hair's dreadful. LOL! How long does yours take to dry? Amy's hair is thick and curly. She lets it dry naturally too but I think it took longer than mine. Take David to Blackpool. It's always a good place to die. Ask Alan Bradley. Patsy |

Martin's forgotten about his demon seed and who can blame him? LOL!
I've seen Reet's bits now and that line delivery about not being a natural redhead was delivered so badly and breathlessly. Why was she breathless when she'd been supposedly on her bum the entire time? As if anyone believed she was natural anyway with the number of shades she's had over the past 36 years. I don't remember the Victoria Wood sketch but jokes about not being a natural whatever have been in TV scripts since at least 1951 with I Love Lucy so it's nothing new.

I don`t mind writers copying scripts, but this is so blantantly obvious it`s not even funny. I hope Johnathan asked Victoria Woods permission before using her material. I know Victoria is a fan of Corrie, but this could be infringing on copyright and Victoria could even sue. Pats...I washed my hair at exactly 12 noon and at nearly 1.30pm it`s still damp  |

Yep and I've pinched from Here's Lucy before now and even George & Mildred, not to mention several Hollywood films. LOL! I did a line about Reet's hair back in 2004 letstalksoap.proboards34.com/index.c.cgi?board=fanfic&action=display&thread=1145041590Reet could sense Lucy's resentment so put her arm through Harry's and cuddled up to him. "Nice to have met you again, Lucy," she said. "I do hope you and your lovely daughter will come to the wedding. Come on, Harry. You said you'd give me a tour of the banks in Los Angeles." "Goodbye, family," he said then led his fianceé out. Kim noticed her mother's expression. "Close your mouth, mom. You'll attract the flies." "Can you believe the nerve of that woman?" Lucy breathed. "And I bet that's not her real colour." "Well, if anyone knows it's you," Kim said. "It's probably a wig," Lucy continued not hearing Kim's comment. "One of those ones you buy for Halloween. She looks like the living dead as it is. We can't let him go through with this." CG, how's it now? Drier? All writers copy to some extent. Nothing is entirely 100% original, apart from the first thing that was. LOL! Many of the classic Dr Who stories were all nicked from other sources. Even the new series pinches from the original. Maybe they came to an agreement with Victoria Wood to cover the copyright thing. Who knows? It's all very odd. She must know he's lifting it yet it goes on and on. Patsy |

My hair took about 4 hours to dry Pats...its just past my shoulders and quite thick - not as thick as Gail Platts though.
And talking of Gail...I wanted to throttle her last night. When David was talking to his mother calmy and honestly, Gail was undermining him yet again. "I won`t stand up in court and say you pushed me David so there is no case". Oh fer gawds sake!!!!
I`m sure Liz wore than manky yellow top and zig zag necklace last night just to annoy me...and it worked!! She has got to be the worst dressed character in Corrie - ever. And I just know her and Jack the bookie will be having an afffair very soon....by May or June is my guess.

I thought you were going to say you're hair's not as thick as Gail. LOL! I must have thin hair to dry so fast.
The writer's are taking the piss now with Wail still refusing to accept David is evil. I'm glad I'm not watching because I'm getting frustrated with all that David crap filling the spoilers as much as Miss Hell. I'd be worse sitting through it.
LOL! She always has been mutton dressed as a slapper.
