Coronation Street

[MmmBlondie 8]

Lewis came back to get revenge on Gail for splitting him and Audrey up. After all the ####### she's been through and all the abusive men she's still as trusting as a child.

The washing machine thing has always been a mystery to me. They cost a couple of hundred quid yet people who can afford to live in big houses in London can't afford one.

What really gets to me is that they all spend their whole lives on the street or the square. No need to go out of area for a supermarket, pub, hairdressers, clubs, laundrette, tube station, take aways etc ITS ALL THERE!!!

And jobs. Everyone works 10 yards from their front door and there's always enough jobs for everyone.

On the square they all have low paying jobs or no job at all but money is no problem. Max Branning never seemed to have a job at all for years but he could afford to buy a half million pound house in London and support his ever growing family and girlfriends and can always hand out money like sweeties to anyone. Now he owns the car lot but never seems to be there and never sells cars but the money comes rolling in. I wish my life was that easy.

Ahhh yes the brannings! Its amazing that there seems to be land/property for sale (eg the gym that jack bought), that was behind the club the whole time yet it was never mentioned...nor was it anything else before!

Its true that no one is ever at work and if they are they are talking to other characters and ignoring the customer extra!

Tell me why do we watch this ####### again.

Tell me why do we watch this ####### again.

Because unfortunately there is nothing else on. I might still be in the UK but luckily for me come March I will be leaving and can look forward to missing a Lola and her baby

I've been here for 3 years and I still watch it on my laptop. I've not really got into American programmes. The adverts drive me mad. They have the opening credits then commercials. Then 5 minutes more then commercials and so on. Then at the end they have commercials and then come back for the closing credits. It is ridiculous.

I watch American programming, but not the soaps. Corrie and Eastenders may not be super realistic, but it's at least sort-of normal people, not like US soaps, never watch those.

Gail does remind me of a cockroach, that is so true! She is the one character I'd have no problem with them axing. I miss Betty, and my US husband still grouches about them having done away with Fred the butcher, that was his favourite character.

Is Dev Allahan and his wife Sunita still around?

Yes they are both still there but they've split up again. Sunita had an affair. Dev moved out and the boyfriend moved in.

Both Fred and Ashley are dead so I don't suppose they'll be coming back. Unless they do a Bobby Ewing!

Ashley's DEAD? I say, Ashley's dead?

I miss Norris and his paperclip. And I used to love Curly Watts and Reg Holdsworth at Bettabuys.
