According to Anthony Cotton, Charlie the parrot, who plays John on Corrie, is picking up a lot of new vocabulary including a few swear words. He's told more than one to "eff off" and is picking up directors' instructions, telling cast to "take it from the top". I'm waiting to see if we hear any of it on screen as an ad lib but probably, they'll edit it out. More's the pity, it could be a right laugh!
