New thread.

Roy and possibly Jodie are the only two who appear to do any work. Todd doesn't appear to work at the funeral parlour as he is never there.

They all must earn a lot more than the minimum wage as so much money is spent in the pub and eating places.

I haven't missed Gemma at all.

Plus the ever open mouth whenever she finishes speaking.

I thought Leanne was going to ask Abi to be her new lodger. And I still think Summer and Todd should live in the flat above the florists where Billy lived. It frustates me when there are empty houses and flats and then there are people squashed into others. I think Brian and Mary should be a couple. She was a great character when she arrived but has been turned into a buffoon in recent times.

Leanne won’t need a new lodger, as she will either have Idris moving in with her, or she will move in with him.

Where does he live, by the way?

Perhaps he’ll turf Abi out, do it up, and have a little love nest there,

I remember Mary always being a buffoon although she was pretty twisted when she kidnapped Norris.
She's just irritating now. Where's her motor home?

Bukkie Sat 04-Jul-26 12:46:40

She sold the motorhome and moved in with Dev for a while looking after Asha and Aadi. She was a great character then.

Aveline Sat 04-Jul-26 13:56:53

She's been in the motor home since them though. Also her mother seems to be pretty variable. Alive/ not? Goodness knows.

Calendargirl Sat 04-Jul-26 15:18:53

Did Mother ever exist?

I often visualise her up in an attic somewhere, a wizened corpse, like a scene from Psycho.

And Mary as a female Norman Bates,

Mary talks about her a lot.

BlueBelle Sat 04-Jul-26 16:09:33

I don’t think Mary was ever entertaining she’s annoyed me from day I wish she Gemma Jodie Carl would all disappear in a puff of smoke

I still like Gemma! Corrie needs all the comic characters it can find.

What was that under the child's bed last night? Looked like a toy lorry perhaps it was something making the boy cough?

I was very puzzled too, was it showing us mould and nothing to do with toys? Perhaps showing us that Alfie's teddy had been laying in it.
No idea really.
Hopefully this will result in Abi going back to live with Kevin.
Please don't let anything awful happen to Alfie that would be too much for me.

Clawdy Sat 04-Jul-26 17:46:27

Definitely mould, which is why Alfie was coughing. Looks like the next grim storyline coming up.

Calendargirl Sat 04-Jul-26 17:50:28

I think we’ve had plenty of sick children.

Hope, Jack, Oliver, Harper, Frankie, to name just a few.

Really don’t think we need to add Alfie to the feeble storylines.

I suppose it's topical. Rogue landlords and councils are often in the news due to damp and mouldy homes, especially in the winter months.
