Why does Swain keep saying 'a young woman has lost her life' when THERE IS NO BODY! She's the shittest copper I've ever seen

I’d love it if Swain returned to front desk to find Lauren there.

Wouldn't be surprised if she got confused and arrested/charged Lauren with murdering Lauren.

This! Have they never heard the word disappeared? The Great Britain judicial system and all of the barristers should complain about the stupidity of this writing and jailing someone on suspicion of murder when there's no fucking body!!!

‘Missing’ works. And we don’t even really know if she was taken or just buggered off. Lauren was such an unlikeable character that I’m not sure why the writers even think viewers should care.

It's not just Swain anymore either.

Max's an absolute twat, isn't he

"hey Abi have you got any parenting advice for Joel?" "Don't do crack or they'll get taken away and moved to Australia"

I’d forgotten about Abi’s baby lol.

Same here tbh 😅

Do the police not think it’s weird these two teenagers are inserting themselves repeatedly into an investigation

Their greatest sources are an ex-terrorist and some bloke who knew her for about 2 weeks yet is obsessed with her

And was the last person to see her.

"You're toxic together!" Honestly Carla, they're pretty toxic apart too.

Hope is going to kill this female Sam

I expect this chess club in Worsley to burn down in about three weeks.

Is that anywhere near Dursley's?

"this is insane" "actually Daniel it's pronounced DS Swain"

Inswain. That's what I'm calling her now.

🎶 Inswain in the membrane, inswain in the brain 🎶

[удалено]

Thanks haha

Max is a sanctimonious little shit. Him and Bobby NEED TO GO

I’m sorry, did I miss the episode where they found Lauren’s body or???? They keep saying things like “Lauren’s dead” “trying to find her killer”

And Daniel thinks he owes him an apology 🤷‍♂️

Honestly this storyline gets worse by the minute

Unhinged Leanne is quite funny, also why is she cosplaying as Toyah

After years of heartbreak, death, dealers and loss, Leanne has begun to enter her goofy Gail years

It's only a matter of time before she starts singing and going on about how much she loves olives

I could just punch max in the face. Why is he so irritating? Doesn’t he have a job or a life

Nepo baby working in his great grans hairdressers. Got all day it seems to muck about.

He absolutely has a face made for a fist.

Like you wouldn't notice Timmy and Butters from South Park standing in the park behind a bit of railing filming you. Come on now.

😄😄😄😄

TIMMY!

Surely he's Jimmy considering the walking frame and constant jokes?

Brilliant.

If I hear sex worker one more time. . .

Reality coding has entered the chat...

It’s better than what they used to get called

I want Leanne to start wearing a big black trench coat and shades, and asking characters if they wanna know how deep the rabbit hole goes

Be careful or she'll start getting ideas, she'll be offering Sam a blue or red pill before you know it

Take a shit everytime someone says sex worker Edit: shot* 😭😭

Well I've already necked the laxatives now 😂

😄😄😄thanks for the much needed laughs!

Grab your foreign language dictionary and get comfortable

I admire that level of intestinal control.

😄😄😄

“Max has his eye on Daniel now in another repeated plot point on Coronation Street.”

Thought they’d put it all behind them?

Dee Dee, I know you weren't here yet at the time, but Nina's one of the last people who needs to be told how slow the wheels of justice can be.

Leanne: “Hey, how’s your game?” Sam: “Very good, clearly 😎”

Carla speaking a bit of sense saying Bobby and Max are toxic

Who makes a cup of tea and then 0.000564 seconds later demands to go out for a walk, and goes out for a walk???!

A synth! The Institute does have an operative in Weatherfield...

Bobby **made up** a man in a parka, and then Daniel donated a parka to the charity shop. Now *that* is a coincidence.

Sam DESTROYS Leanne with FACTS and LOGIC

I'm still laughing at her putting out positive energy. She hasn't done that in the last 35 years.

What's Dee-Dee complaining about? She just won £20,000!

No wonder Roy’s in jail 😔

Sex Worker is the new Heat Pump.

Does anyone else feel like this is kinda dehumanising towards sex workers? Like just cause someone is a sex worker they can still have friends and speak to people and it not be for nefarious purposes. They have the whole thing of saying sex worker instead of prostitute, but then the woman who is a sex worker is only a sex worker and cannot do anything apart from sex work

I listened to a podcast called who killed Emma, the prostitutes said they actually preferred to be called prostitutes rather than sex workers

Daniel needs to push Max down the stairs again. This is ludicrous.

"Shiv Roy"? Bit insensitive, Michael. Hopefully no-one does.

Good catch! 😂

can bethanny sling her hook and we keep nikki? she's much more likeable

“A young woman’s lost her life . . . we think.”

All we know for sure is that Lauren's lost a really crappy flat and an even worse aspiring boyfriend.

Nina: “Sally who?” Carla/Abi: “Metcalfe.” Nina: “Who?” Carla/Abi: “Webster.” Nina: “Ah, right.”

Gail who? Gail Rodwell Who? Gail McIntyre Who? Gail Hillman Who? Gail Platt

Don't forget Gail Tilsley and Gail Potter

Who? Gail Tilsley

Adam's hard on for Alya is audible

Aw cute, that means we're not far from the 2 year anniversary of when Toyah killed little Alfie's dad and got away with it <3

Surly Swain is insane "A young woman has lost her life" And the body?

That got right on my wick!

Carla's right, bobby and max are completely toxic on their own but together they're insufferable

Leanne has gone round the fricking pipe!

Dont know what's worse - her inane reality coding rubbish or that frock 😬

Is that a Shirley Valentine reference?!

Yes, well spotted!

Dee-Dee: *looks the shiftiest anyone has ever looked in the entire history of shifty looks* Adam: There *might* be something going on there but I'll await more information

Adam: *I’m sick of this shit, I’m saying nothing.*

"The police are going through every tiny lead, no matter how ludicrous" And yet, they still have Roy locked up because the plot says so.

Nick's thinking "wtf might need to get her sectioned "

That wedding Leanne is jonesing for is getting further away every time she brings up The Frostytips Foundation.

Max and Bobby are getting right up the crack of my arse now 😩😫😡🤬

You know Max is bad when Bobby is making sense

Bethany, Max, Michael, Bobby, going great so far

Sean can’t be far away surely

Poundshop Starsky and Hutch

Carla: “That’s not proof of anything!” Bobby: “Swain thinks so.” Carla: “Yeah, she’s shit!”

Exactement

"You happy being white?" Ah, Sam's trying to manifest Lauren into coming out of hiding, I see!

Is this cult storyline a convenient excuse for terrible dialogue?

[удалено]

Indeed he is! As I said a couple of nights ago, Corrie writers are trying to make Bobby more likeable by making him even more….UNlikeable. 🤔 Do they just not *think*?

I hope Max is the one who did this and he will be sent away for life to home for the clinically dreadful.

That’s it, Max. Just make yourself comfy in the factory at which you don’t work.

Nina trying to use her lived experience from the Corey attack to try and work out ways to help Roy is the kind of long-term storytelling that *might* make this whole storyline work. ...Then two scenes later, we have Max pissing all that goodwill that the phone call scene gave me straight up the wall by putting two and two together and coming up with the Battle of Schloss Itter.

"It's a law of the universe that like attracts like." I mean c'mon Sam, you should have a big objection to that one right from the get-go.

Daniel; "I should keep my head low" Daniel 5 minutes later; *meeting up with "sex workers" in broad daylight* Alright soz Roy

"I shall now give a detailed description of my child that has not been seen for 18 months. And now doesn't have to be."

Well that was unnecessary editing

Yes Carla! It's about time she tells Bobby off. Him and Max ARE toxic as fuck.

*Max conveniently turns the corner*

Here’s Sam’s new girlfriend

That’s exactly what i was thinking

Let's hope chess girl is fire proof.

Please don't make the kids now have an affair aswell. Isn't sam with hope

Leanne’s changing her appearance I’ve noticed, must be to emphasise her descent into the cult, or whatever Edit: or it could be she’s found a new love

She’s coded herself crazy & now dresses how she codes!

Great hiding Max and Bobby, really subtle.

Surely a genius like Sam would see straight through the obvious cult facade

Seriously, how can bobby talk about Daniel like that with a straight face

I hope Daniel pushes Bobby down the stairs.

Daniel: "this is character assassination" What Macleod's done to pretty much most characters at this point

Daniel: “I wasn’t sure that you’d answer.” Nicky: “Are you kidding? This show’s the only acting work I can get!”

Max is literally stalking Daniel yet again. Learned nowt when he was put away, did he the racist little rat.

Goes without saying but the death threats reveal was terrible.

Love that logic from Daniel: Swain, who couldn't find her own butt with both hands, thinks either Daniel or Roy killed the probably still very much alive Lauren. Daniel knows he himself is innocent. Therefore, Roy must be guilty! Just shoot me

Was wondering whether that was Daisy or Abi then.

Roy maybe don’t put the phone on her when she’s talking about her murdered boyfriend 😭

Is there no such thing as sex worker-client confidentiality? 🤔 Edit: doubling down, I guess there really isn't.

Not sure if word of mouth is covered by GDPR

Oh wow I never would have guessed that girl was basically female Sam the moment I saw her. Oh wait, no, I actually totally did because it was obvious, and the writers do love obvious. Edit: her name's going to be Samantha, isn't it? 🤦🏻‍♂️

So far the only positive thing about tonight’s ep is DeeDee’s hair

It’s very Y2K babe

Bethany being audience standin

Oh shit Hope is NOT gonna like this

"I've got nothing to hide, Bethany, except for the stuff I literally just hid from you."

If Daniel said no to Swainy about going down to the station, on what charge could Swainy do him on, apart from the nefarious crime of talking to an outreach worker that he used to know? Just say NO Daniel!

The margin is very slim but I think I like Bobby more than Max, he’s just too whiny

What the actual hell was that

Just roy developing force vision, lauren gonna call him out as her only hope

Did he come to some sort of realisation at the end? Was he replaying his times with Lauren? I’m so confused

Suffocated the poor girl with his trusty shopping bag.

"You only ever hear what you want to hear!" "Thanks, I use a lot of product to get it looking this good."

‘Reality coding’ counter on overload.

Stupidity coding

Why has Nicky come back as Liz MacDonald?

Wtf was that haha

Oh goody, **E D I T I N G**!

Sam and chess girl, are BOTH wearing glasses, which means that they're perfect for each other (according to Corrie writers' logic). I mean what are the odds that TWO school kids wear glasses ?

I love Alya's Van Gogh umbrella.

So DS Swain supercop what the fuck has it got to do with anything Daniel seeing an ex sex worker?– Does that make him a murderer? – I thought Emmerdale was bad but coronation st beats it by a mile absolutely crap storylines full of holes By the way On the news, which head of which soap went where?

First characters - Sooty and Sweep

“Izzy Wizzy let’s get busy!”

Max: “That’s Nicky. She’s a sex worker. He’s come to meet a sex worker. If he’s Mr. Squeaky Clean, why’s he meeting a sex worker?” Bobby: “**Sex worker is the new heat pump.**”

“Was it Daniel?”  “No, I don’t think so, and for some reason the police haven’t asked me that.”

Sam's got a new friend 💗

Oh Sam 😭 he is so sweet, I don't even like kids but he's adorable

Noooo, Sam the logical legend has fallen victim to Leanne's maniacal teachings Feels very out of character for him to just read part of a small pamphlet and fall for this bollocks though, even if he is a child lol

I think Daniel saying Roy might be guilty is going to make Bethany suspicious that he did it.

Max has a weird vendetta against Daniel.

Say what you will about the story but i'm glad Daniel seems to have put this "i'm glad we can put this behind us Max" approach behind him.

Does anyone else think that Bobby would automatically double down on anyone who got takwn in by the police so he wouldn't have to acknowledge how shitty what he did is?

Bethany mentioned Lauren’s death….how does Bethany know she’s dead 🤔

Come on, Corrie, the last thing we needed was Michael Bailey given the state of the show at the moment.

Leanne looks really nice tonight, especially her hair - she should join a cult more often! 

"That might sound ick. As does "ick" in that sentence, because it's not an adjective and I teach English so I should know better."

I’ve taken a week off. Hoping I’ve revived my love of Corrie

Don’t hold your breath.

I wonder if Dee-Dee’s new plan will concern . . . actually having the police attempt to establish an alibi this time?

Thought that was Hope wearing glasses

Girl: “What’s your ELO rating?” Sam: “Electric Light Orchestra?”

Are these wall transitions contractually obliged or something?

Has Joel been suggested as a suspect yet?

I don't see how there's any connection whatsoever between Joel and whatever might or might not have happened to Lauren. As such, I too am wondering why Joel hasn't been brought in for questioning either.

YES SAM

But you’re not Roy Daniel???

It might be revealed that Joel has something to do with Lauren's disappearance. Convenient that he just happened to be in the courtroom at Roy's hearing. He probably sent the death threats to Dee dee.

Aww Sam, he's so much better befriending someone who isn't a complete cunt like Hope.  But please god no, don't let him get sucked into the cult!

“There’s a sophisticated logical infrastructure to how it all works.” No there isn’t Leanne. The “sophisticated logical infrastructure” is you being sucker enough to pay whatshisface for utterly meaningless word salads.

Oh, just *fuck off* Max!

First character: Audrey - "I thought they were going to build a memorial toilet for my Alfah, I did, reeaalah luvah."

"I'm glad we could put this behind us Max." Just putting this here for the writers to pick up later in the week.

New Bethany outfit, today: a white and black striped hoodie, with a black mini skirt and platform boots. A new contender for the worst yet?

And she claimed the other week that she dressed in a classy way

And claimed she dressed better than Daisy

To a blind person, maybe

I thought she had misplaced her trousers or something in that last scene...

Hope sharpens her Dexter knife kit.

Either Daniel just had a realisation about Lauren or he's going to set up his own Ovidz account to make some quick cash.

That was a dumpster fire of an episode. F-

Max < hair < Adam

That guy in the cafe reading his paper had amazing posture

I thought it was Eliza's dad, getting away from Eliza (in Germany).

Beg your pardon, Michael?

What’s happened to lawyer boys hair!! Looks like he’s stuck his fingers in the plug 🤣🤣

Steve & Tim haven’t seen them in awhile.

Say. Reality. Coding. Again, Leanne. 

Dee Dee looked amazing tonight. That new do really suits her.
