Party Games for Pat


This post comes via our friends at Conversation Street, the Corrie podcast.

On Friday's Corrie, we saw Eileen struggling to come up with a guest list and food ideas for her 'Getting To Know Pat' party. At least she doesn't have to worry about thinking of any games, though: following a suggestion from Adam Berry (@AdamskiJonDicky), here's a list of games we've put together that we think Phelan might enjoy...

Can you think of some others?

Bobbing for Corpses


 Chinese Whispers

Hide and Seek

Pass the Parcel

Pin the Crime on the Windass

Wink Murder

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!

Deirdre Barlow gets her own song, kind of

Check out Deirdre's song here, which plays along to the infamous 'Barbara Streisand' song from last year. It was created using the application on the website, which lets you insert your own lyrics.

It lets you create such Coronation Street hits such as Kenneth Barlow, Graeme Proctor and everyone's favourite Oh god it's a tram!

Have fun!
