Wow! Things are really hotting up on the cobbles…:shock:
Yazmeen has had a bad do and ended up in in hospital, on the day of her hearing as well…That gives them time to find Geoff’s ex (Paula Wilcox, all my dreams have been answered. I loved her the first time I saw her in 'Robin’s Nest, although she does look a bit straggly now.) So Imran can turn up in court with a good defence…How about them apples Geoff?..
And fancy Jemma’s mum finding Rick’s watch in the woods while looking for roman coins…Now there’s a coincidence!..Is Gary about to get his comeuppance when they find the decomposed remains of the unfortunate money lender…Or is Gary going to follow the watch (now he knows Sarah bought it for fifty quid to give it to Adam for a present. Now there’s another coincidence!) and take them both out of the equation…I can’t say I’d be too chuffed if Mrs Fox gave me a watch for my birthday that she found in the woods covered in’t muck…
Rick was a loan shark who was going to make Gary disappear and bury him in the woods…But Gary turned the tables and whacked Rick on the head with the shovel (Spade is not PC)and it ended up with Rick being buried in the woods…
Johnny (the Rovers Landlord) and Jenny (his missus) went away to foreign parts on holiday, but Jenny returned home alone saying that ‘No good Johnny’ had decided to stay for a bit longer…
I’ll continue to call it a SPADE JB, Just like Diamonds, Hearts, Clubs and SPADES!..and the little electrical wire jointing thingy, otherwise known as a SPADE fitting… Bugger the lot of them…
Reminds me of the olden days when the word ‘blackboard’ became temporarily unacceptable.
The more suitable word then became ‘chalkboard’, not that I ever changed my terminology, being ‘old fashioned’.
Strangely, I understand that ‘blackboard’ is once again an acceptable word.
I think it’s developed into a whole new industry: determining acceptable and unacceptable words, and deciding upon more suitable alternatives.
I reckon I could do that, if I could only work out how to get into the job.
Sorry! Off-topic. Nowt to do with Coronation St. so this will no doubt be deleted!
It’s good to talk JB, and sometimes we wander off topic, I reckon that’s what makes this forum so interesting, but it’s either that or keep starting new threads…
However, I don’t think any words (other than swear words) should be taken out of the English language. It’s not the word that offends, it’s the way it’s said and in what context…Just my opinion of course…
No probs Mupsy. I think Johnny has acted in lots of other stuff, so I wonder if another acting roll has come up and it was too good to turn down, or maybe under contract… No doubt he will turn up later. There is a story brewing between him and a bloke who is staying at the pub. I think they are old friends but something kicked off many years ago. We’ll have to see how it unfolds…
I agree. When you hold a face to face conversation with other people, talk naturally moves on to other subjects.
On the other hand, on a forum like this, I suppose if a thread moved completely off-topic it should be brought back on-topic by the mods. I can’t complain about that.
Have you noticed how the odd word and facemask are creeping into the programme JB? And watch out for the social distancing also…I think Sarah was playing with fire last night, I expected her being pushed into Gary’s van and buried in the woods with Rick…
You’re abviously an avid fan of Corrie, so you must know the answer to my question?
Bugger the lot of them…
