Corrie?

Could anyone take Craig seriously as a copper?
He’s a bit of a bumbler and an apologist

[douglas9401]

As seriously as R Brian being a mechanic. :-)

[Bobbisox1]

Arh, he’s deed Doogie :0(

Apologist - noun: a person who offers an argument in defence of something controversial.
"critics said he was an apologist for colonialism"

Personally, I like Craig as a copper and I think he can be tough when he has to be. What I find odd is the way he's always on the Street when things go wrong as we no longer have 'beat coppers' ! Why is he never out and about driving his car ?? I found the racist storyline a bit hard to watch last night.

[Espresso125]

the race card emerges at last, wondered how long itv would take for this to happen
the whole storyline was stupid, any two or one even young guys driving a Chevy corvette (a high powered sports car) and rarely seen in the uk would have been pulled up WHITE or black to see if the car had all the docs and the car was there's .... have always wondered why their house in the street became a Tardis twice the size of the same type of Barlow's house and the door in the wall ?? going straight into the Barlow's . ive taken to recording this and Emmerdale and skipping past the scenes i don't like. and yes i know i could watch some else but its just some scenes annoy me,, been watching corrie and Emmerdale since they started ,yes I'm a very oldie

[burlyshirley]

I think this family have pulled the race card before !

[Bobbisox1]

Sadly you could see exactly where it was going last night but people will argue ‘Well it does happen’ first it was James’ gayness now it’s the Race thing , surely there’s more story lines than constantly harking back to the same old same old

[burlyshirley]

I agree Bobbs and I like this family. Esspresso is right, their house does seem so much bigger than all the others lol ...

[Bobbisox1]

I just asked Mr B where Aggie was and she appeared haha,years ago wasn’t there a ‘ front room’ in those houses? Balance used to have it in Ken and Deidre's, perhaps Ed the Dad knocked through? Just a thought :0)))

[Bobbisox1]

Blanche not bliddy Balance !,

[burlyshirley]

Yes, they have front rooms when it suits Bobbs !

[Bobbisox1]

Indeed they do ,there was no evidence of a double fronter when I visited the street a few years back mind :0))

Things conveniently appear and disappear in soaps on a regular basis. I remember when i used to watch Emmerdale back in the day when Jenna Coleman and Charlie Webb (Jasmine and Debbie) wanted to hide the body of the bent cop they killed. A hitherto unseen and rather large lake conveniently appeared nearby. The lake re-materialised when the body was found, but has never been seen since - to my knowledge of course, haven't watched it since old Ashley popped his clogs.

Remember when The Kabin had a post office? Often saw Norris in the cage

[burlyshirley]

Oh yes, forgot about that barry ...

[Bobbisox1]

Can’t say I-remember the PO Barry

Yes I Remember the large lake Ken, that is no more

[brainiac]

Yes, Ken - and another mystery re Emmerdale is the cricket pavilion (complete with scoreboard), much used for elicit liaisons, hiding in, hiding things in etc etc; but never ever has a game of cricket been played. Might be something to do with the fact the land in front is on a very noticeable slope :)

Would a car dealership let 2 young men take a car like this on a test run? I wouldn't have thought so.
I read that the copper in that scene used to be one in real life, but has now turned to acting. Hopefully he will be a permanent fixture to take some of the heavy load off Craig.:-)

[Bobbisox1]

Poor Craig he’s too nice to be a copper, the newbie is canny on the owld eyes mind ya , haha

[Ken4155]

Brainiac, as soon as i read your post, i just knew i had seen Amos shuffling between wickets. As Matt Skilbeck says, "Amos is running like he's got somebody else's legs."
