But speaking of odd couples, is it just me, or is anyone else feeling a bit miffed that we haven't so far seen any scenes of Sean and Norris living together? A missed opportunity, I feel.
Anyway, as Gemma becomes the next young woman to be taken in under Rita's sequinned and perfumed wing, let's have a look at the others who've got cosy on her soft furnishings over the years.
Jenny Bradley was another rover who returned to Rita. And, I wonder if Gemma moving in means that Jenny will be moving out - perhaps in with Johnny?
And while Sally never lived with Rita (as far as I know, but do correct me if I'm wrong), Rita was always there as a mother-figure for Sally, especially after Sally's own mother passed away.

Tina lived with Rita for awhile, too. And Rita also took Leanne Battersby under her wing and gave her a job though didn't give her a home. I love this about Rita. !
Sally lived with Rita in 1998/1999 during the Greg Kelly saga.
I'm anxious to see how this storyline goes. I like Gemma when she isn't completely over the top and Rita has long been a favorite.
It won't all be one way with Rita helping Gemma to calm down. Gemma's got a great sense of fun and perhaps she can bring back the old Rita, who has got far too up herself in recent years. She used to be quite brassy (in a good way!) and ready for a laugh. Could be an interesting match.
The scene where Rita slaps Tina is one of my all-time favourite Corrie moments, albeit a rather overshadowed one. I just hope Gemma will be just as entertaining in this environment. And MORE SEAN AND NORRIS.
Jenny is lined up for her own apartment in the bogus Phelan development so is unlikely to move in with Johnny. I guess there will be further elasticity discovered in dem walls.
But when the truth comes out about the bogus building, that means that Rita has lost $15,000. although why she would spend that amount of money on Jenny is beyond my comprehension. I assumed she would always move in with Johnny. Could be rather fun with all 3 women being flat mates. And I do agree with more Norris & Sean. Huge missed opportunity there.
