Corrie.

[Caran]

Does Eileen seem to have put on weight or is it what she is wearing?

[brainiac]

Always been chunky. Am getting so sick of the self-pitying Peter that I turned it off!

[lankeela]

She's always been a beefy gal.

[tiggerblue10]

She's always been a bit on the heavy side but I wasn't paying much attention last night. She may have put on some extra weight as many of us have during lockdown.

[barry1010]

She really struggles with her weight, she lost a lot a few years ago but keeping it off is hard for many.

[burlyshirley]

Agree brainiac, I wanted to slap him last night ! Glad the hunk who fancies Carla is back.

I though Eileen looked a mess last night, but George seemed to fancy her !

[Bobbisox1]

I really don't like to see straggley locks on someone Sue Cleavers age ,eg 58 , she'd be better off with a nice short Bob , her hair last night was messy and unkempt

[mallyh]

perhaps like a lot of us ,me included, lockdown has had a bad effect on hair as no hairdressers open. lol

[Chinajan]

What an unpleasant thread. OP, you've previously made negative comments about other women on TV regarding their weight - Motsi and Anne Hegarty that I recall. What business is it of yours?

An article about her weight loss a couple of years ago

It must be tough being in the public eye

I've always liked Sue Cleaver, thought she was great in Dinner Ladies. In Corrie she is portraying a hard working woman of a certain age who is often struggling for money, not a glamour model. I think she looks just fine for that role.

[Bobbisox1]

I too like Sue Cleaver, I love her dry wig character, just thought her hair didn't suit but then neither does mine right now :0)
And I love Archie Shuttleworth's nephew George, he was great as the camp hairdresser in Benidorm and it's about time Eileen had a nice natured fella instead of the louses she's had to make do with

Talking a weight gain in Corrie, Steve seems to be larger each episode.

[tiggerblue10]

I like the Eileen character too, she has some great lines. As regards to her hair, I think she looked fine. My hair on the other hand resembles a birds nest at the moment.

[barry1010]

My wife usually has a very sharp bob but it has grown so long she has it in a pony tail. This lockdown has saved her a fortune in hair cuts :)

[Barsel]

I thought Ken looks like he's lost weight, thought his face looked a bit drawn.

[Apc2604]

I think Eileen (Sue Cleaver) is lovely and very natural looking. I didn't really notice her hair last night. Like others have said lockdowns have produced some really messy hair. However, as I like my hair messy, I don't worry (but my dark roots and lack of highlights is very noticeable)

[Apc2604]

I thought that too Barsel. And yes, Steve has perhaps been down to the takeaways far too often. I really like Simon Gregson. One of Corrie's treasures.

[Bobbisox1]

I mentioned Ken's look to my husband and perhaps it was his hair, it's usually cut mid ear but possibly through lockdown , he's got it behind his ears making his face look longer, lockdown and hair have a lot to answer for :0/

[barry1010]

Steve is one of my favourite characters but I wish Lloyd would come back, not a hope as Craig Charles is far too busy

[Bobbisox1]

Yes they made a great double act although I do like 'dim Tim ' as well haha
