I haven't watched it for over 15 years - good to know I haven't missed anything worth watching.

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Groove can confirm that Silly Sally will be Franks next victim.

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

I still watch it, and will carry on doing so, as long as I find it to be essential viewing.

Johnny Briggs? Sour grapes.

Michelle Collins accent's got better, of late.

Though I don't know why she just couldn't have been a southerner. Just as Mike Baldwin was. People do move about the country, from within a mile of where they were born, so I'm informed.

Johnny Briggs never attempted to play anything other than he was, a cockney wide boy. Who in his time, had some truly ludicrous storylines himself.

It's nothing like the dying days of Brookside, which went totally loopy.

Corrie is still a good mix of northern drama....and humour.

I think Sally's going to be taken up the alley too.

Frank's the new Wilmot-Brown.

:rolleyes:

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Second Corrie claim to fame, besides Vicky Entwistle chasing me home from church, shouting she loved me, which I recently asked her if she remembered, which she did, saying I was her first love, ahhhh.

When I was a college, we used to drink in the Everyman Theatre bar.

We were sat at a table with Brookie's Karen Grant, and Craig Charles, now in Corrie, but then a relatively unknown comedian married to the then more famous Cathy Tyson, came across, and said I had nice hair.

Weird, but true.

Don't worry, I don't have anymore Corrie trivia to share.

:D

Good grief!
She's left?
You'll be telling me next that Dennis Tanner has grown up & flown the coop! However would the lovely Elsie manage without her golden boy?

There's always Hockey Night in Canada:alright: I think your better 3/4 would love it; MMA on ice:dancedog:

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Dennis Tanner, played by the original actor, is back.

He was living rough on the streets, but is now shacked up with Rita Littlefair, that was.

;)

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Ya mean she changed her name,:eek: go on, don't tell me, LEN Fairclough finally persuaded her to marry him:D

Is the Rovers Return now owned by one of those pub chains that put desperately naive punters behind the bar and then hike up the rent and price of beer to the poor tenant until after 3 months of working 24/7 the tenant does a moonlight, leaving Corries producer free to introduce a new up and coming star straight from his casting couch?

If not, why not?
That would make the series more true to life.

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Groove thinks Emmerdale has been the best soap this year. Corry goes hot and cold and regularly has periods of poor storylines. Emmerdale is gonna be good with Cain getting a hiding resulting ina whodunnit scenario,with several suspects with a grudge against Cain.

Hmm, I find a parallel between that and your posts.

Still never mind, with any luck you'll get bored and then go annoy someone else.

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Just ignore him like I do less

Re: Coronation Street is Rubbish!?
 

Another safe bet, in Emmerdale - I reckon is that Amy's kid, of which Cain is the father - will have the bone marrow match for Debbie and Andy's daughter Sarah - so all's well that end's well ha? :mosher:
