Another puzzler which occurred to me in last night's episode, when Jason got stranded on Sunita's roof. It was a mean trick that Karl played, I thought. I've really gone off Karl since he took up with Sunita. Much has been written about Sunita and the drastic change in her personality from normal to sexbomb to harpy, but Karl's change has been dreadful too. I loved him with Stella (I still like her, sorry) but now... Lowering himself to playing tricks on Stella's new fella is a bit mean, I thought. Anyway, he took the ladder away and poor Jason couldn't get down.But to Jason's left I noticed something peculiar - a Velux window, a slanted window set into the roof. Now it's not beyond the realms of possibility that all of Corrie's houses would have attic conversions. It's a popular thing to do in small terraces where building out isn't possible but building up is. I write to you from my own attic, in fact, although mine isn't a conversion, the houses were built like this. It's entirely possible that Sunita's house has a loft extension accessed by a ladder from the landing or something. In fact this would be really helpful for Sunita as her kids as different sexes and could have a bedroom each.
But, why is it never mentioned? Why aren't all the houses extended in this way? Has the window always been there or is it new? Can we banish Sunita to her own attic?
