Corrie Caption Competition

Inspired by British comedy panel show Have I Got News For You, here's a Corrie Caption Competition.

No prizes but just a little fun on the blog to cheer you up on a Monday!

Taken from next week's preview photos, anyone care to include a hilarious caption for the photo above?

My pathetic attempt is: "Mary's decision to do a Bank Holiday strip-tease doesn't go down well..."

I'm sure many of you can do better than that!

Caption competition: What's going on between Deirdre and Carla?

The official Coronation Street website at itv.com/corrie have just posted this picture to their Facebook page as a teaser for tonight's episode of our favourite show.   

But what on earth could Deirdre have said that's made her giggle so much - and made Carla look so concerned?

Maybe Deirdre's revealed the secret ingredient in her stuffed marrow recipe. Now that would be food for thought.

What do you think's going on in the picture, Corrie fans?
