Coronation street

He's still alive Calendargirl. I was quite a fan of Richard back in the day. Man About The House was my favourite programme. I still watch the repeats when they are on. Those fashions! I met Richard once. He was delightful. Meghan Markle visited his care home a while back and it showed her on the news being introduced to Richard. She wouldn't have a clue who he ws obviously which I found rather sad. He was so lovely and full of life back in the 70s.
Sorry. Back to Coronation Street!

And PC Plod, our Craig, was out on the beat within weeks of deciding to be a cop and able to arrive within minutes at every crime ?

^Tim’s mum is now training to be a doctor^

I know the NHS is short staffed, but even so…..

They do seem to be able to fast-track qualifications in Corrie. Daniel got an MA and became a qualified teacher in about 6 months for both.

and so is emmerdale

it is reallygetting on my nerves

Tim is milking this for all it's worth, ringing his little bell for the slightest thing. I sense a clash between Sally and Elaine on the cards. Daniel put his glass right next to Amy's. The glasses were identical and both had clear liquid in them, so I agree with others who think Max has spiked Daniel's drink but Amy has picked it up by mistake. Be interesting to see how he manages not to be excluded if this comes out. I read somewhere that Abi and Imran's one-night stand isn't over yet!

Anyone remember Tim’s mum Paula Wilcox in the 70s sitcom Man About the House?

Yes, groundbreaking stuff.

Single chap shares flat with two single girls.

?

And Richard O’ Sullivan, who played the chap, is now in an actors retirement home, assuming he is still alive!

Is Tim’s mum competing for the most annoying character award? I know there’s quite stiff competition, but I’ll be glad when Sally throws her out.

Doodlebug - 'it happened when they changed his head'. That made me laugh.
Aveline - yes, they meant OU, didn't they? Tim's mum is now training to be a doctor. I didn't understand what all that was about tonight, couldn't hear a lot of it. Were they mumbling?
Charleygirl - Steve is getting very hammy. He used to be an ok actor but he's definitely gone off.

I have never liked Steve- I just do not think he can act but as we know he is not alone in that street.

I still like Steve! I think the writers have mixed up U3A with OU.

Yes, he's gone from being a cute kid to a little monster. It happened when they changed his head . . .

I agree, max is the culprit re the spiked drink

Is it just me, but Steve McDonald now rivals the Baileys as worst actor in a soap, his gurning and OTT facial expressions and gestures are a pain to watch.

Years ago he was a good cast member, but now….

I agree with Calendargirl Max is not finished with Daniel yet.

No, Max spiked the drink thinking that Daniel would be drinking it. Remember the package he was waiting for? Did it contain the GHB ( or whatever it was)?

I ought to re-watch it to see if Amy picked up the wrong drink …..

But Max definitely is out for Daniel.

BTW, did you realise that in real life, Jacob and Lydia are brother and sister?

I think it was Max who spiked Amy’s drink thinking it was Summer’s.

I’m wondering who’s looking after Lydia’s child while she’s skulking around and creating mayhem. Does he actually exist? Have we seen him?

Mind you, much more of Sarah’s simpering, eyelid batting and love you more, my darling nonsense and I’ll be offering to hold Lydia’s coat while she deals with the pair of them.

Why is Max acting so weird? I wonder if he saw something happen to Amy and he has it on film. I trust it isn't Daniel. Surely their hate relationship can't keep going.

It’s been mentioned before, but does Sarah ever see little Harry?

She’s either strutting round the factory in peculiar outfits, flirting or falling out with Adam, or getting drunk in the Rovers.

Very odd.

Did Lydia use Gail’s keys? If so, can’t recall how she got hold of them, unless Gail left them lying about and Lydia got copies done

Yes, Sarah went out and left them lying on her desk. Lydia used them and also had a spare set cut. So we can expect more skulking around from Lydia. I wish she would just get to the point and tell Adam he’s the father of her child.

Did Lydia use Gail’s keys? If so, can’t recall how she got hold of them, unless Gail left them lying about and Lydia got copies done.

Yes, Daisy has had a personality makeover. Much more likeable now. We are supposed to have forgotten how she was involved in that pyramid selling scheme that Sean and Gemma were involved in, and Daisy was quite ruthless in her dealings with the reps who couldn’t sell the stuff.

Thinking about Sean, what happened to the storyline about his son who was supposed to be coming to live with him? The one he fathered with Violet. Did the son decide to stay with his mum in the end? If so, thank goodness, as that was another rubbishy theme going nowhere.
