Paid Members WWFChilli Posted February 10, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 10, 2012 I thought I was seeing things when Robert Vaughn cropped up in Corrie. is he technically the biggest star ever to appear on the show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtheman Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Depends how you define biggest. Sir Ian mckellen was on for a while a few years ago  Edited February 10, 2012 by iamtheman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.PeterVenkman Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Is Leanne actually supposed to be likeable? Plus it's absolute bollocks when she's giving it all the Carla stole my husband bollocks that no one turns round and says "you slept with her husband when you were a prozzie you daft bint" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Teedy Kay Posted April 18, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 18, 2012 The return of Terry Duckworth has raised one interesting point in our household. Â How strange is it that his casting is actually brilliant? Â How did they manage to forsee that Terry would eventually begin to get the same build, overall look and appearance as well as a staggeringly wonderful closeness of accent/voice to that of Jack Duckworth so many years on? Â It's crazy, it's as if he were actually Bill Tarmey's real life son. Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted April 18, 2012 Moderators Share Posted April 18, 2012 Is it still Nigel Pivaro as well? That's fantastic flukey foresight if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Of course it is. Easiest job in the world, Nigel Pivaro's agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotlightmagnet1 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Is Leanne actually supposed to be likeable? Plus it's absolute bollocks when she's giving it all the Carla stole my husband bollocks that no one turns round and says "you slept with her husband when you were a prozzie you daft bint" I've decided no. At least Carla tries being civil, Leanne walks around all sanctimonious with a face like soured milk and then tries crying to Ken 'I can't see Simon' but the second she walks away she starts being a twat. And of course Peter's going to go for Carla, wouldn't anyone pick Carla over Leanne? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted December 1, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 Sorry for the bump, but..   Ex-Coronation Street actor Andrew Lancel faces child sex charges Former Coronation Street actor Andrew Lancel has been charged with historical child sex offences, police have said.  The 42-year-old, who played Frank Foster in the ITV soap, faces five counts of indecent assault on a child under 16.  Mr Lancel, from Gateacre in Liverpool, was charged on Friday under his real name Andrew Watkinson.  Merseyside Police said he had been bailed to appear at South Sefton Magistrates' Court on 19 December.  Mr Lancel appeared in Coronation Street from January 2011 until March this year.  He is currently playing the lead role of Brian Epstein in Liverpool in the play Epstein: The Man Who Made The Beatles, and is scheduled to head the cast in the pantomime Sleeping Beauty at the city's Echo Arena. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-20564419 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted March 21, 2013 Moderators Share Posted March 21, 2013 Sunita gets killed off then, probably on Sunday. Personally I'm gutted, as I've fancied her for ages. Got a massive thing for her. AND I FANCY HER AS WELL, HYUCK HYUCK! She's 46 which is fucking mental. Â Mind you, hopefully this will be the beginning of Dev Alahan putting it about like it's the late 90s again, turning back into the Asian David Essex and pounding fannies all the way. Anyone else been watching the latest explosion storyline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Maverick Posted March 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2013 Yeah iv'e been enjoying it, British soaps are incredibly camp and generally poorly written and acted but their a real guilty pleasure for me, suppose its a by product of having nothing going on at the minute. Sunita is indeed a fox, seems to have got better with age aswell. She's got a great pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) They missed a trick on getting Kevin Webster out of the show there. If someone would have just went "oh, Kev was having a piss when the pub went up as well". Just casually tell the audience he's dead and he wont be back. It'll save the bother of having to pretend he's not around because he's got stuff to do. There isn't enough jobbing out of characters. I remember when Emmerdale got rid of Terry, he just burned to death and we never even saw it. It was just like "oh, Terry was in there as well". Â A proper double cross would be when they film 2 different endings confuse the press. If they sent the different tape in for broadcast of a character who is brutally murdered and he's sitting at home expecting to see his character go off on his honeymoon or something, that would be a bit of a shock. "I suppose that's me sacked then". Says Jason. Edited March 21, 2013 by IANdrewDiceClay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Maverick Posted March 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2013 I imagine they'll want him back though if it turns out he's not a nonce. I enjoyed Terry's double act with Chris Tate but he was worthless for years after that, a fitting end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted March 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2013 Ken Barlow should have been sacked after that nutty rant he gave about rape victims asking for it for sins in a previous life. You get the feeling the guy is basically untouchable now. Anybody else, lower down the Coronation Street totem pole, would have been kicked out the door for that.

Paid Members Maverick Posted March 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2013 You have to remember the guy is 80 and has always been a complete mental though, I doubt he even realized what he was saying in the context. It's no excuse but hes reached that national treasure status where they have more to gain from him being about than not. At least he's offered a full apology.
