The great Corrie macaroon mystery

Last night's big dilemma on Coronation Street was a real macaroon mystery. Is a macaroon a biscuit or a cake...? debated Steve and Lloyd. The question reared its head again in the Rovers as Norris, Mary, Rita and Colin considered if carefully over a drink at the bar. Mary knew her onions and the law surrounding Jaffa Cakes but did she know the answer to the macaroon mystery? Indeed she did. As the law determines it, cakes go stale when they go off and biscuits go soft. As macaroons go soft, that means they're biscuits.

Actually, Eddie was the one that came up with the definitive answer via Liz who said he'd driven her to the club. If it raises while baking, it's cake, otherwise, biscuit. Wasn't that whole running dialogue wonderful? Just like old time corrie, and a nice contrast to the drama. I feel a blog post coming on, meself about that whole episode.

It was a tremendous episode - the macaroon mystery started in one episode and finished in another by a different writer. The writing on Corrie at the minute is almost perfect.

Friday night's episode was very very very good. I loved the macaroon topic weaving in and out of the drama. It was amazing. I shall be watching that again

Surprisingly, I hated the Tony/Carla stuff (probably in the minority there and will give it full mention in the weekly update tonight)
