Corrie weekly awards: Dec. 26 - 30


The Happy Bride... Not.

Here We Go Again award: How many weddings have been interrupted and gone unfinished? The guests must be getting used to this by now, it's almost a 50/50 hit or miss!

They've got a point award: 1. Karl suggests Eva should pay rent. I agree.
2. Kylie advised Becky to act her age and don't let the cow get to her because it makes her look guilty otherwise. 3. Gail's downing tools because nobody would help her.

Babysitting fail award: Telly star: The boys' idea of babysitting is parking the babies infront of loud video games on the telly. The babies had other ideas.

Babysitting win award: Kirk calmed down wee Joseph with lines from his favourite movie. Blade Runner!

Let me talk award: Gold Star: Sophie's trying to express doubts but Sian keeps putting loved up words in her mouth and giving her presents.

Daddy knows best: Gold Star: Kevin knows Sophie is just trying to convince herself though she really does love Sian.

Manipulative Cow award: Gold Star: Tracy got out of the police questioning by making it into a drama and further blackmailed her mother into silence using a potential jail sentence as bait.

Daddy knows best award: Teary star: Look what you did Kevin! But really, he did the right thing. She had doubts, and 17 really is too young to make a lifelong committment.

Lines of the Week:
Roy to Steve "You of all people know that Tracy will say what suits to get what she wants... You're a fool" (Too right)
Emily about the same sex wedding in a church "If it's good enough for God, it's good enough for me"
Kylie "You can't pull the wool over a girl's eyes like you can a fella's"
Nick "Gail, you're the epitome of a Godsend"
Eva "Just think of me as Nick's very own 'Location Location Location'" Gail "more like 'Desperation Desperation Desperation'"
Mary "Where's your loyalty, Rita, where's your Dunkirk spirit?"
Pam "Most weddings I go to, I don't even give them 5 minutes, but this...." (didn't even get to I Do!)
Gail "I sense death in that toilet"
Mary "I sponsored a child in Mozambique once but the agency put a stop to it because they said I was too needy"
Kevin "It needed to be said" Sally "It wasn't said, it was shouted from the rooftops"
Beth "Me son got is hand stuck in an open tin of baked beans" (Bwahahahahaha! and so it begins....)

Phrases of Doom: Tracy "Nothing is going to go wrong"
Rosie "Nothing is going to go wrong with this wedding"

So how did Tracy get out of the police questioning? I won't see that episode for about 6 months here in Canada..

Tracy pretended to get upset and didn't want to talk about it her miscarraige and ran out of the pub, avoiding the police altogether.

Good Riddance Award

Taxicab Star: Sian was a whiny, one-dimensional character with little substance and no screen presence.

At Least The Cats Can Hear You Award

Screechy Star: Sophie.

Shouty Star: Sian.

This Is Going To Be Fun Award

Gobby Knitter Star: Beth. Her character is already shaping up to be a comic legend.

Will You Ever Shut Up? Award

On And On And On Star: Mary. She just does my head in, talking over people with senseless anecdotes about Butlin's with no relevancy to nothing. Corrie are flogging a dead horse through keeping her character.

Mary was great when she first arrived, but over the last months she has begun to annoy me in the way that she is now treating people.

Anonymous said...

They brought Mary in and she was very funny; she delivered her lines of comedy with excellence.
She might have left after the Norris kidnap plot, but maybe, due to her popularity, they kept her on but now Norris has 'forgotten' this kidnap thing, (which is ridiculous) and the street has moved on with no place for Mary anymore.
