Oh here we go again.......... waiting for test results at Weathy General, self important doctors talking about the "seriousness" of the illness, Gail fawning about talking in that silly voice, then Michael will be up and about in no time mooning about with hangdog look with zero adjustments to his life style - spare us.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Yasmeen finally has a purpose to be shouty. I hope she tells Anna EXACTLY how it is. I'm starting to think Gary is maturing faster than his mother at this point.
ReplyDeleteWell I suppose they could always forget his heart condition, then you'll moan how Corrie has swept it under the carpet. Am I right?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry but what does Tony's and Tracy's business dealings have to do with Michelle?Is this leading to her finding out about their affair and somehow blaming Steve as she did with Tina and Peter?
ReplyDeleteIt's time for me to spend the 2 1/2 hours a week watching old episodes on youtube instead of the current stuff. This Andy /Gavin nonsense is just stupid, don't cause Michael any stress but saying you're pregnant, that's sensible! They only got together a few days ago anyway. If only there was a way to weed out the stupid stuff.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the Andy/Gavin stuff. And they didn't say she was pregnant, Michael assumed it so they went along with it rather than cause a worse shock!
