- Hayley's anorak. Please, please buy her some new clothes!
- Dev. Potentially survivors could actually drag him back into the debris . . .
- Deirdre's belt. Enough said
- Tyrone & Molly's gloomy Christmas decorations
- Julie's party 'rabbit ears'. Possibly what not to wear at a local disaster . . .
- Owen and his manic hostility towards all life forms
- Fiz & John's leatherette sofa. It's probably going to need a wash if they are going to keep it though . . .
- Nick Tilsley. Oops my mistake! He's already there.
The episodes this week have just been out of this world though and I, for one, am so grateful that little moments of humour keep appearing such as the wreath, Nick's comment about the stag night, Ashley's waffle about "Ice Cold In Alex", Graeme's gastric band story and Rita being flattened by a jar of mint imperials. No one does it like Corrie!
My husband has been insisting that Owen will be the one to blame for all of this. Owen seems to think he's one of the "big boys" in the building trade but he's just an overgrown cowboy and a bully to boot. His crew worked on the Joinery and probably did something to mess with the gas lines (not intentionally) and will probably end up being a "person of interest" in the investigation. I sure hope that happens!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree Peg but Owen is such a slippery customer that he's bound to offload the blame elsewhere. He'll probably try to implicate Jim McDonald!
ReplyDeleteGraeme's story was so funny!
ReplyDeleteJohn's gone away in the ambulance now, leaving his front door wide open. Is Charlotte's body still on the floor in there like it was the last time we saw it? Is she even dead? John was about to dial 999 when the explosion happened - why would he do that if she was already dead? I suppose he might have been gonna report the murder to the police, but if he was gonna turn himself in, it wouldn't really be an emergency, would it? So why call 999?
ReplyDelete"My guess is that the evil deed will be covered up by means of the body being dumped amongst the rubble."
****VERY SLIGHT SPOILER****
I don't know what happens, and I don't want to know until it does, but apparently it's much more ghoulish than that.
What was the 'ice cold in Alex' joke?
ReplyDeleteIce Cold in Alex is a film from 1958 (I haven't seen it) where "A group of army personnel and nurses attempt a dangerous and arduous trek across the deserts of North Africa during the second world war. The leader of the team dreams of his ice cold beer when he reaches Alexandria, but the problems just won't go away.". It's why Peter made the remark about orange juice.
ReplyDeleteNooo, not Hayley's anorak! I think it's an icon, no matter it's beyond geeky.
I had the thought yesterday about how interesting it would be to see the crew clearing out the props before the sets were destroyed. I wonder what they decided to keep. But then, it would be unrealistic to reuse them, or eagle-eyed superfans would recognize them in future episodes!
I think I've got Corrie overload.
