I have the wasjig puzzle and it's good, double sided, cartoon-ish, was fun to do.

Arjan and Louise said...

I also have the wasjig plus four other ones. I think the others are older. There is one with weddings and I think the other 3 have cast pictures on them.
I have enjoyed doing all of them.

I love doing jigsaw puzzles. I have at least 4 - a double sided wedding one. Black/white photos on one side colored the other. I have one with Rita, Sally, Gail & Deirdre. Then I have 35th and 50th anniversary ones.

I don't know if they have one like this, but I'd love one of the street. Lots of cobbles that would make it difficult. Or perhaps one of just the Rovers with the bricks making it harder.

I'd like to see a double sided jigsaw with a black and white image on one side and colour on the other. Maybe one of the classic black and white images such as Ena Sharples and Minnie or Elsie Tanner and so on.

Looks like fun for a long winter's night.

Ooops, forgot the contest stuff

Yes, it still looks like a fun way to spend a long winter's night.

LGC - Ottawa Ontario Canada - there should be a puzzle focused around the Corrie disasters! e.g. vans crassing in the canal, fires, explosions, car crashes.

I think a theme of Weatherfield's streets and buildings history would be fun. BBC had a great series of various high streets with images superimposed showing historical buildings and surroundings morphing to current.

I would like to see a puzzle of different Corrie Christmas scenes or one of all the barmaids through the years.

I do not own a puzzle but would love one :-) The tram crash would be a good puzzle. Or one of the longest remaining actors.

1. Sadly, I do not yet own a Corrie Jigsaw, but would love one, or two or three. :D

2. I think a good theme would be the Christmas Pantos! Would be fun and colourful! Or, the John Stape disasters! Beginning with his kidnapping of Rosie Webster, continuing on with the bodies of his victims, digging up the body in the factory, the hostages (Charlotte`s parents and Chesney)etc. Of course, would have to include that classic bewildered and cute expression Stape adopts whenever he doesn`t really realize how far he`s let things go and he bleats: `it wasn`t my fault, you don`t understand!` LOL I think that would be fabulous!

I like the idea of a double-sided puzzle: Corrie past on 1 side & Corrie present on the other.

I do not have a puzzle, but think its a great way to learn more about the show.

I would like to see pictures of Corrie home interiors - with the characters in the kitchen having their tea. I always love to see the decoration, and get excited when someone has the same tea cup we do!
