Do you watch Coronation Street

[heartgirl99]

I think you're right that the cdn series is about a week behind Just watched cdn show tonight. It was the episode where Miley went to live with wazisname's family

it must have been so difficult to film these upcoming episode, pretending to be looking forward to deirdre's return and planning for her homecoming.
It's going to be a tough week.

I found the news of Deirdre passing scenes a little disappointing

Spoiler

The grief for some seemed real (and probably was given how long some have known her) BUT
The TracyLuv comment from Audrey, I know was supposed to remind us of Deirdre saying it but seemed forced
The door of the Rovers blowing open and everyone looking around was cheesy
Emily was close to her, Rita telling her to just have another drink was a bit crass
The whole Kylie/Callum drama seemed to take away from it and could have waited until next week IMO

going to be terrible today or sometime very soon,
as deirtre of course is going, damn shoot etc.
everyone has missed her for so long, sighing.

just to be stupid whilst i still can - hoping it's
not the new oven contraption ken got her.

lots of respect for one of the most loved
on the street, is what i'd think must happen.
have the kleenex ready.
(peter going to show up?)

i never look ahead fallenpixels, and if i did thanks for the
quick link - but the comments you make? not a fan of those.

It is just sad that they have to make so much drama out of it all

i have been missing her for months

if anyone else is a body pump fan, listen for the reference in the episode where zeedan wants to go to the gym instead of staying home with family to celebrate eid.

you post on a british soap opera thread, and post spoilers,
AND now you wonder about drama?
thinking you don't watch corry street fp.

Regular corrie drama is fine, but given the circumstances

silly me felt bad about maybe being nasty to fp,
and came over to say sorry, as i really am not a nasty person
but now can't figure out what
'Regular corrie drama is fine, but given the circumstances'
is referring to,
and thinking i don't care to know whatever fp is thinking about,
not a fan of hearing what is going to happen on the street,
or her comments on the future that i haven't seen, so,,,,

What I meant is that in general, corrie is full of drama and it is expected, but since it was Deirdre and she had been on the street so long and her family asked that she have a peaceful death (which is why they repeated so many times that she died peacefully in the garden), I think the whole drama with Callum/Kylie, Stuff with Liz/Dan/Leanne etc could have waited for another episode (and Tracey trying to sleep with her ex too)

I just finished catching up - and I thought they handled it all really well.

My tears came when they sang Bridge over troubled water...

Though the timing was crappy, glad Ken had it out with Tracy.
