Corrie. Sally to Kelly Crabtree (about Rosie)

'At least she can spell P.A.'


that made me chuckle.

Pam, Tyrone's Auntie to Roy Cropper: "I don't know what it is, but people can't seem to get enough of my baps".

(The look on roy's face was priceless).

[Bbbananas]

I'm talking to myself here, I can see.
No matter.
It wasn't really a question anyway.

[LoftyLottie]

Hello Salla. Just logged on again. I will talk to you. Yes that was really runny!

[LoftyLottie]

I meant the remark about the baps!!

and it was also funny apart from runny!!!!

[yogasun]

Hi Salla (and Lottie!)
I agree, they have one-liners in Corrie second to none.

[Bbbananas]

Urgh... runny baps.
No wonder Roy gave her a distasteful look.

The actor that plays Roy Cropper is long deserving of an award for the part he plays - he's been absolutely fantastic over the years, and I've never seen him get any award or accoldade other than a good newspaper review. He can be funny, awkward, and very very touching. His acting when he thought he was the father of Tracy Barlow's baby was impeccable.

[rinkins]

Excellent! Very funny salla

[LoftyLottie]

He's a treasure. I'm really liking Graham now too.

Hi again Yoga x

[Bbbananas]

Bl00dy hell- just when I'm beginning a good conversation with myself... along comes people & interrupt me. Huh !!

David Neilson is the actor - all of us should vote for him in the next soap awards. Long overdue.

[funnygirl]

There have been many witticisms of late on corrie!!!

And I love them all.

[Bbbananas]

The best ones are usually from Blanche - her character is the queen of one-liners.
But lately the scriptwriters have blessed Norris with some ace sayings.
Yes Lottie - Graham annoys some people, but I think his character is funny - loved it the other night when he was talking about Michelle and quoting famous film lines - "I think you had him from hello..."

[LoftyLottie]

Saw some pictures with him and whoever plays Tony in freezing water doing their own stunts for a forthcoming episode. So I really do admire him!! Noone would get me in a freezing cold canal like that!!

[LoftyLottie]

Poor Blanche is very unwell. Anyone heard anything more lately?

Salla
I am so glad you made that point about Roy Cropper. Over the years I have thought that his acting has been outstanding and completely unrecognised by anyone. I feel annoyed that I can't remember his name in real life.
He is always totally in character in every way whaever situation he has in Corrie. I almost feel like writing to him to say that I'm a great fan!

[Bbbananas]

He was in the running for an award a couple of years back, I think it may well have been the Tracy's baby storyline. He didn't win it, which was a travesty. If I remember rightly, it was a Hollyoaks actor who won it.

David Neilson has been absolutely superb in Corrie since 1995. I hope one day he does get recognition for his quite brilliant and believable acting - I'm sure he's respected by his peers - but he deserves public recognition.
