OMG--I just saw Helen Flanagan on Holby City. She was dreadful. Poor misguided girl should have stayed on Corrie.

Well I have almost caught up on my tapes!
Thanks for the explanations about how Steph and Tina met.
Todd's current behaviour continues to bother me. It just seems so out of character from the boy he was.
It seems to me that they are introducing the ADHD as if it is something that people are not generally aware of. I don't always watch as closely as I might (I'm often doing something else at the same time!) I think that when asked if they had ever heard of ADHD, both Kylie and David said no. Is it possible that this is a less common diagnosis in UK than in Canada? It seems as if they are going with - "he's not just naughty, he has a real thing".
I can't figure out where they are going with the Gary/Izzy thing. It was sudden!
Agree about Dennis. I didn't like when it seemed that Rita was being sucked in by him again. I hope she finds some happiness.
I wish that Dennis had taken Tony with him!
Nice to see Ken back!

Puzzled what do you watch Holby City on? Ive never seen that one. She did play great "stupid self centered twit"
Lawrie you could be right, it seems so commonplace (unfortunately).
Ooo I think Tony is going to really let poor Jason down. He is a schemer and all around scum bucket. And Todd is right there with him. I wish they would have fleshed out his story more, maybe to give us some insight why he has had such a personality transplant.
The scenes with Ken and Deirdre were quite stressful. I thought one of them was going to have a heart attack.
Tracey is going to be in for a rude awakening with Rob. But I do hope it doesn't drag on and on.
Funny last night the scenes in the café with Tracey and Rob, I can't ever remember seeing the café from that angle.

I saw a little blurby that some eye candy for the ladies is coming to the street. One being the elusive father of Max. The other being the son of Gail's new fancyman.

I use a VPN to see programs in the UK and Australia, Jasper. Helen played a nurse in the Holby City episode--once again being a "stupid self centred twit." It really doesn't go down with being a nurse.
Does anyone else think that Rob's crime will somehow come out on his wedding day?

Hadn't thought of that Puzzled. I'd like to see how they would have Tracyluv react to a wedding day arrest!
The appearance of Max's father could be a great story if handled well.

Tracyluv would go ballistic, and make someone's life a living hell.

Wonder how long it will take Fiz to find out that inferior materials were used that caused Tyrone's injuries? How long till she flattens Jason his brother and father? I am afraid Jason is going to lose his business.
And have I missed anything on Owen and Anna? I havent seen them for some time now.

About time they brought in some fresh people. The present gang have all played musical beds long enough. Owen and Anna do seem to have vanished into thin air. Maybe they're off caravanning?

Good point on Owen & Anna. Maybe the actors are taking vacation time?
I was catching up over the weekend. Poor Robbie can't seem to catch a break. He must have been secretly pleased when Peter was on death's door with alcohol poisoning and disappointed when Peter pulled through!
A few days ago I saw this interview with Bruno Langley (Todd). Maybe it isn't just us who think that some characters have had personality transplants! "I always thought Todd was quite an intelligent guy but some of the things he’s being doing recently are not very clever"

I think that I am already tired of the Neil/Andrea thing.

I am so tired of Andrea and Neil! Where's that runaway train when you need it???
If Peter dies, Rob will get away with murder--unless Carla starts digging into things.

Cablejockey,
we saw the episode yesterday where Carla has figured out that Peter is innocent of Tina's murder.
I was surprised also to see that there is an old picture of the MacDonald clan, with a smiling Jim in the center. Since Liz never wants to see him again and Steve certainly doesn't. If I had such hard feelings about someone I wouldn't be popping that particular snap on my mantle.

In the real world, Andrea and/or Lloyd would have pressed stalking charges against Neil.

I'm looking forward to Cilia. Should be fun scenes with her and Beth.
They are really scrabbling for stories. Steve and depression? Kylie a druggie? Callum is pretty vile.. And where exactly are Kirk and Beth working all these extra shifts? The factory isn't open 24-7. They seem a little desperate especially the david Kylie stuff.

Cilla is Fiz and Chesney's mother. She's not much of a mom. Big loud brassy and a whole lotta fun and trouble. She was married to Leanne's father Les, they left the show years ago, Chesney was still in school. Cilla just left him with Fiz. She us a hoot though. I bet she'll walk in to a job at the factory or behind the bar.
Anyone else you need to know about Peapod just ask away, everyone here is full of info. And relationships get kind of convoluted!

ITV IS NOT RELEASING ANY DETAIL FOR THIS EPISODE.
So this is the wedding episode on corrie.net. I can not wait to see it.
Peapod - corrie.net also covers all of the back stories on the characters.

Cilla had abandoned Fiz, too, and Roy and Hailey fostered Fiz. That's why Fiz and Roy have such a close relationship.
