Coronation Street

[Gentle Ben]

So, now a Customer of Leanne's recognizes Her & in a bar sitting with carla,approached Carla while Leanne went to the lu, wanted to make arrangements outside of the agency, figuring Carla was an SP as well.
Carla confronted Leanne, and now going to tell all.
Carla also made mention of (in form of a question) Her husband Paul knowing about what she does, I wonder if it will come out that he had (unknowingly) booked Leanne.

 

[dajodo2]

I'm sure it will.

Paul is a hypocrite, he shouldn't have been so down on Leanne being with Liam or getting into business with Carla... But then it wouldn't be a soap opera would it??? (and the best one of them to boot)

Maxine always turned my crank....

 

[Quaggitty]

I'm a closet CS fan, started watchen when Tracy killed. Don't watch thru the week but they play all the episodes on Sunday back to back.

Anyone ever watch Secret Diaries of a Call Girl on showcase, it's pretty good.
(well anything on Showcase after 10:00PM on Fridays is interesting)

Aaaaarrrggghhh...Move across an ocean, and the first TV show I saw in Canada was..... Coronation Street...Is there no escape from this mind numbing drivel????
As you may have guessed I am not a fan....

Now for quality British Drama look towards Spooks (Known as MI5 in the states....)
Or for comedy - Spaced, Little Britain, Men Behaving Badly etc etc etc
And (supposed) factual programming - Top Gear

Alright don't change the subject! Corry's is a guilty pleasure, don't knock it.

Carla's husband Paul is really turning out be quite a piece of work. First, he moves his dead brother-in-laws body into the driver seat, after HE crashes the car they were riding in driving drunk, and lets the dead BIL take the blame for the crash, and lies to his sister about it for 5 or so years.

Then, he helps his scuzzy wife cover up the death of a factory girl, who was working off the clock in Carla's sweatshop enterprise.

Then, it turns out he frequents escorts and cheats on his wife as well.

Nice guy.

But...it was funny to see Carla come to the realization that Paul was seeing escorts after she humiliates Leanne. Right back at ya, bitch.

Carla's no different than Leanne.....she's a whore as well, she's just in it for the long con.

WHAT A FUCKING BASTARD!!!!!

Anyone remember a bar maid at Rovers named Gina?..she was also kinda hot.

 

[Dartman]

If you go to the website Paul get his due this week,

 

[LancsLad]

Yep,,she was quite tasty. I think she was dating Dev (the cheesiest of the cheesballs). In real life, the actress got married to the actor who played Jez Quigley (a very sinister drug dealer guy that was killed by Jim McDonald).

I know too much about this show...I grew up about 30 km away from the studios.

No offence intended, as you mention you are from near the set, which i realise is clearly not the same ( sorta)

I don't watch the Street anymore but was once a loyal viewer.

When I was young and it was on telly, I would often say to my Mum and Dad, Thanks for moving to Canada.

I've had the pleasure to meet quite a few Brits while on vacation in the Caribbean. When I mention that Corrie is the 2nd highest rated show on the CBC behind HNIC, they laugh and and kid me about "being from the colonies", and not having any taste in entertainment. But despite protesting they don't watch (what drivel, they sniff), the men know all the story lines and characters.

I dunno...I got hooked on Corrie about the time I met the SO....I used to hate the theme song, and would read the paper on Sunday mornings while it was on. Pretty soon I was watching more than I was reading.

I think it's real. Real people...real situations...certainly compared to the American soaps, which really are drivel.

So...tonite Paul gets his walking papers from Carla....make a fake appointment with Leanne, cons her into meeting with Carla, and then abducts her in the trunk of his car. While drunk.

Anybody want to guess who dies?

 

[The Cunning Linguist]

You've been reading ahead on t'internet?

Not me....but the SO has...and she likes to drop little cryptic hints...
