Peter so deserved that punch Shelly gave him! What a great ending tonight!

Square Eyes I was reading that thread about magazines in the lounge (I dont post on that forum but I sometimes read it) and noticed you mentioned Inside Soap - well you will be pleased to know next issue *should* be a Corrie cover as Tracey-love gets married to Roy Cropper! I am disgusted that Corrie and Emmerdale are almost being ignored on the front covers recently, since the new look inside soap launched at the Start of September 70% of the covers have been eastenders, 25% Corrie and only 5% Emmerdale, if this carries on then im not buying Inside Soap anymore! And Whats on TV and TV Quick are even worst - id say 95% of their covers are Eastenders.

and how much of that 95% is Kat Slater?!


I cant believe they choose to put that woman on the Inside Soap cover this week when they could have put Charity/Marlon/Cain in Emmerdale on the cover (cos ****SPOILER***** Charity is pregnant by one of them or maybe Chris) and that woman is on almost every other TV guide this week too Evil or Very Mad Since the new Inside Soap launched she has been on at least 3 covers - thats 30% as there have been 10 issues so far, thats more covers Corrie have had in total! And ive lost count of the number of covers she has had on Whats On TV - 90% of them probabaly Rolling Eyes

Thanks for that, I understand the scenes at Blackpool will be in the normal episodes rather than have separate eps like they did when Bet Lynch came back the first time in Brighton back in 1999.

I have also heard that Blanche Hunt is due back on the show in a few weeks time.

It will be interesting how they arrange for Jim to escape from prison. Anyway, he get's out after finding out about Liz's affair, tracks her down to Blackpool, and she agrees to go on the run with him to Ireland.

However, he ends up saving Ashley, Claire and the baby in a dramatic sea rescue. Is it just coincidence that the Peacocks happen to be there at the same time ? Shocked

Apparently Bev Callard who plays Liz McDonald is about to return to Corrie full time.

"I'm definitely coming back," Callard told the News of the World. "I've just worked for four weeks and I had such a great time there's no way I can turn down a chance to come back.

Liz will be back on the cobbles from January to "cause havoc" at Steve and Karen's wedding.

I think its great that Liz is coming back to the show long term - and she doesnt get on with Karen, so this will stir up some trouble, I cant see Liz putting up with any of Karen's nonsence!! Very Happy

Did anyone see the Peter Barlow special on ITV2 tonight? I thought it was good, although having that Richard Arnold and that other woman on there so much annoyed me, we want to see clips and the opinions of the corrie cast not them bleating on! Rolling Eyes it was still a good show though, nice to see some older clips like when Peter was accused of Toyah's rape and when Peter first arrived in the live episode back in 2000 - also nice to see some of Juicy Lucy's early appearances!

No I didn't. I don't know which women you are going on about but one soap critic that annoys me is that new one on This Morning, she's dire, and its obvious she's one who's biased to EastEnders
