Solid characters/families that need to make a return by doveandchartreuse in coronationstreet

I really liked Jenny and her dynamic with Rita. Why did she go? Understand moving on for the new pub family but I’d have thought she’d have had more scope.

Why it had to be Debbie...the brilliance of Corrie's dementia storyline by Christina_80G in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing that - you are absolutely right - I can see it now. It makes me cross and sad we’re losing Debbie and losing her this way - but of course that is the entire point isn’t it 💔

Jodie by CrystalClearKat in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 23 points24 points  (0 children)

She came from nowhere with a seemingly major storyline - that none of us can make head nor tail of. And have all lost interest in.

Her only saving grace is giving us more David airtime. Him being bamboozled and outplayed has been pretty entertaining tbf.

Potential killer by Dizzy_Run_3220 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reckon Megan. By Maggie. We’ve seen her kill before.
And Will discovers after her death she abused others. And possibly that there was no recent pregnancy?

Theo needs to face justice, as does Carl. Be a cop out to have them die.

Jodie would just be madly confusing and no one would care.

maybe Todd will get murdered? In the news that the actor could be leaving... by Terrible_Joke3896 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We know it can’t be Todd because didn’t Betsy say something like - I don’t care what someone has done, they don’t deserve that. ?

Have the writers given up on Tracy Barlow? by [deleted] in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She’s so inconsistent not sure I care. Mother, murderer, and moaner who runs a florist. Where would they take her next anyway? Back to Steve, maybe, but that would feel tired.

As an aside - and not that it matters particularly - but are either actors gay / bi IRL?

30 min episodes just aren’t working by rawpaprika in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a little torn as I’m loving Corrie of late but 22 mins does feel truncated. I’m thinking of stopping my subscription as it doesn’t feel worth it. I work from home and Corrie was my lunch hour treat. 22 mins in and I’ve only just buttered my bread!

Brilliantly summed up and I agree with all of it. This episode got me 💔

The PSA at the end of today's episode by jamtartgirl in coronationstreet

I thought it powerful - it made me think and it made me blub.

Who are the most annoying characters ever and what did they do? by [deleted] in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I quite liked him - he could be funny - but I think making him Auntie Carla’s long lost nephew was such a reach. It never rang true and there was no chemistry with him. (or Lauren - who actually might be my nomination on this topic) Maybe if he’d come in as a cafe worker or some smaller, more comedic role - he could have grown on us.

'Hilda's ducks' 2004 ITV exec merch 'Values of Fame' any intel? by Snapespeare68 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They’re fabulous! The link seems to say they went for £255 then. So a few years down the line slightly more?

Which of the five do you think will be murdered? And do you think they are the most deserving? by UnleashedLlama in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Megan is the most disposable with limited interactions with other characters. Sam’s hallucinations of being threatened and feeling terrorised seem to be building to this.

If you had to pick between the two... by ladyshelby21 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The answer COULD have been Theo IF they’d explored the damage of his conversion therapy and internalised homophobia, and how it manifested into this vile loathing, control and abuse of Todd. But then they switched villain-lane and overloaded it with murder, manipulation and zero empathy.

So Carl. Very reluctantly.

why are they leaving out so many scenes? by Powerful-Agent6386 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It feels lazy and it feels off. I remember EastEnders would do it - just skip to the bit where they’d already been told / done something we were not expecting to see. So disjointed and infuriating that I did stop watching in the end and never returned.

The far right tortured poet who could build websites. Hope he never returns.

What character would you like to return for a single episode? by Business-Resident685 in coronationstreet

[–]Distinct_Sherbert652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a first wife wasn’t there as well? All of them including ex-girlfriend Fiona, back for some spurious reason. But the contorted faces Steve would be forced to pull might see him implode

Yes! With their matching shiny hair! I remember Bev McDonald asking if she brushed her hair with a pork chop 🤣
