Todd’s fun run, race thing wouldn’t have been on a Monday. They usually take place on a Sunday so they can close the roads without disrupting the busy weekday traffic

Yet Harry with a new head wanted to see him before school to wish him good luck
It was a marathon. And I thought the same. Wouldn't happen at 8am on a busy Monday morning. Such poor writing as usual.

I thought it was a new one too so I looked it up. It’s the same boy who has been there since last year
I’ve just looked too and he appeared for the first time in a 1hr episode on 20th October and that appears to be his last appearance until today. No wonder I didn’t remember he’d been in it before

They spend all day everyday in the pub too. I'm never sure what day or what time it is in Corrieland
To be honest this doesn’t bother me across any of the soaps. I really like all the scenes in the pubs, cafes, shops etc. years ago nobody bothered about this, but it still wasn’t ’normal, everyday life’. We wouldn’t have the soaps if they had to follow everyday boring life. I love classic Corrie because they’re in the pub all time, it allows so many storylines to flow and just good banter between characters.

At least that theory that Fiona Middleton (Angela Griifin’s character) was the mother of Ollie & Will is out of the window (thank god as one contrived coincidental link to Steve with Jim potentially being Ben’s dad is one thing, but Steve’s ex-girlfriend and mother of his daughter Emma also being the mother of his nephews would be a step too far)

Ben was on the phone to their mum and called her Mel

Definitely a rooster up from Corrie having the race on a weekday!
What were they even thinking? That no one would notice the irregularity?

I really want Theo to be dealt with within the proper way & go to prison for his abusive behaviour. But before that happens, I would love for Gary Windass to beat the absolute tit out of him. I think there’s only Gary that’s the man for the job. He makes my skin crawl.

Are they leading to an ‘intervention style’ ending- so George doesn’t trust him, James has been looking sus at Theo, Sarah has had her doubts etc… I wonder if it’ll be a few more people who get an inkling then it’ll climax. Or maybe it’ll be new Harry who spots something 😆
I think Kit also has his number? He interviewed them both and tonight he was looking deep in thought while they were in the pub (unless he was supposed to be worrying re Mal)

I find the Theo and Todd storyline so frustrating. Even as a person who has been in an abusive relationship and went back many times it just doesn’t ring true somehow.

There is no chemistry between them and it’s not believable that no one except billy has noticed anything amiss. All my friends and family hated my ex. They could see what I couldn’t.

This needs wrapping up asap.
I agree! No chemistry at all. And I get the feeling that, irl, Todd’s actor (Gareth?) doesn’t really like James Cartwright. Maybe finds him a bit too much? Maybe the circumstances around the GBH conviction a little a lot unsavoury?

Just about to say I think Kit has started to realise something isn't adding up!

That’s the vibe I get from the Theo guy, as a character and an actor.
Even disregarding the controlling and violence, the term “a bit too much” describes perfectly how he comes across. 😡

Is anyone else just fast forwarding that absolute weirdo now? I just can’t bear to watch the wooden clown. I searched Cuprinol man and got this:
Uncanny!

Guilty as charged 🙋🏻‍♀️ Can’t bear to watch now without fast forwarding whenever he’s in a scene 😡

I'm hoping Christina's early doubts come back - I thought originally she wasn't fooled by him at all.

They could have thought ahead and planned it better so the marathon was on this coming Sunday’s episode!

I’ve been watching Classic Casualty from 2007 and bloody Theo popped up last night as the scumbag boyfriend of Georgia Tennant. Bernie is currently a regular as a paramedic and she wrested him to the ground twice so I think she’s needs to step up in Corrie and bring him down!
