General Chat

Loved it when Ken and Steve got drunk together. They must have had about 10 wives and 50 girlfriends between them. They still dont understand women. lol

Ken threw Tracy out, good for him. He is the one with sense in that family. [except when it comes to a pretty face]

So Tracy pitched up at Steve's expecting it to be hunky dory.

Gonna be trouble.

See Robert Vaughan making an appearance. How I loved Man From Uncle.

:-)

Am I the only one who did not like the Becky character. I did enjoy the very ending in the plane but because I was aware with these spoilers that she was going to leave, I felt her exit dragged on too long over the weeks.

I do love Norris and Mary however.

Where DOES Gail buy her blouses?

She can only manage to do up two of the buttons. Or, she wears Stepford Wives tops, or she wears polo necks, and her own neck disappears.

Send for Gok.

:-D

Just watched it as I recorded it. Roy was obviouslly very fond of her as a friend. (I like his character).

I'd like to see scary Mary go, she gets on my nerves. Plus if Gail finds another man and starts batting her eyelashes again I will vomit!!

Did everyone see the farewell to Becky programme. I thought it was great mapping out how she had arrived in the show and showing how they ahd developed the character. She was obviously popular with all the cast and it was strange to see the girl who plays Tracy (sorry can't remember her name) talking about her as a friend.

I loved the brilliant one liner as Tracey reached Steve "What the h..... she doing here". Reminiscent of the Steve/ Karen marriage after Tracey had appeared in the church, and Steve asked a fuming Karen "Are you all right".

I think her heart's in the right place, she is a very vulnerable person, and has given everything to be loved, and like most of us would just loved to be settled with children and be married.

I think her application to become a foster mum was sad too but in fairness taking her vulnerability and her using alcohol as a crutch when things go wrong , the correct decission was made.

i expect once the novelty of her way's wear off her new man will send her straight back to corrie, mayby with a child, that would put the cat amoungs the pidgeons. :-D

Yes, do you remember when she worked at underworld and stole from her colleagues. At least I think that was her. I loved how they gradually 'softened' her character. But as you say Sue 'Give a dog a bad name'!

Puss, that's the whole aspect of her character - she certainly did do some awful things in the past so people found no problem in accepting that she would stoop that low. Even Roy believed it at the start.

Thats okay time we get to this bit of the story I'll have forgotten anyway...lets be honest I'll have forgotten by tonight no doubt....sounds like it'll be good when we get there though can't wait !!

i was wondering that Penny lol,

oh caroline, you got a while to go yet :-)

I like the actress's description of the character - that it was a story of redemption for her.


Good luck to Katherine Kelly:

She Stoops to Conquer begins at the National Theatre on 24 January and will be broadcast to cinemas across the UK and around the world on 29 March as part of National Theatre Live.

i loved it how she kept her dignity, its horrible being accused of doing something you would never do, and even that was good xx

I had a little tear too when she said goodbye to Roy & Hayley.......can't believe she on in it for nearly 6 years

I was blubbing when she said goodbye to Hayley and Roy.

I think ther will be words between Ken and Deirdre. What a shame Blanche is not with us, she would have had something to say. lol

Methinks Ken will be taking a few more walks down by the canal.

:-D

I liked her, and enjoyed the way her character developed over the years. I have no doubt she'll be back.

(Is it really like that if you fly first class?)

Here in New Zealand Becky hasnt been to Crete yet, so we are even further behind. I dont intend to buy a new TV or box and aerial or whatever when we change to the new digital thing, so my TV viewing days will be over then. All I watch these days is Coro and the news, and they are both getting boring.

Huia.

OMG now there hasn't been enough info here to ruin it for me in Canada but you have got me trying to work it out !!! =0)
We're trying to catch up honest, we're only about a million years behind you now.
We're only just at Becky coming back from Crete and it not working out with Clarke, and Steve and Tracey love having a one night stand.

I thought Becky was going to stop the wedding but having them go through with it was a brilliant twist. Loved it when she outed "Dreary" LOL.

I do question whether a man of Dans status would entertain the idea of a woman breathing cigarette and alcohol fumes on his very young son while screeching EGGIE SOLDIERS!!!! though LOL
But never mind. At least Tracey got rumbled :-D :-D :-D
