Am I alone in finding it hilarious?

I maybe alone in watching Corrie come to think of it :D

I find it moving and deeply tragic.

When he thought he'd boned Leanne the night before and took her shopping   :D

Nope, not alone - I was brought up watching Corrie and as I developed into a Northwest Nationalist (yeah, I know, that should be regionalist but then you lose the alliteration) always resented the Cockney wanker intruding on our cosy Northern nirvana. So the alzheimer's is poetic payback. Although that said, they are all a bunch of Manc scaggers anyway (ah, the conflicts of regional versus local rivalries).

But there is at least one thing the nation can agree on - what the fuck is going on with Nicky Platt? (the elder one who first popped Leanne) Some kind of scary alien abduction thing there surely - brought up on the back streets of Salford, all his family, neighbours, mates are all Mancs but he's apparently been transplanted whole from Surrey, via the best drama finishing schools, talking like the kind of posh twat who'd have taken a severe kicking for talking like that where I grew up, never mind in Mancland, and no-one fucking notices?? WTF??

Erm, I'm quite embarassed now - I never realised I was actually that bothered about Corrie. But Ken Barlow should be executed on the Red Rec by the Weatherfield Posse in revenge for some perceived slight when he was their teacher. And Fred'n'Ashley should give up butchery in exchange for running coke - "I say, oor Claire, 'e wants 'arf a key, I say, 'arf a key", "Oooh, Fred, dohn't be bothering me when I'm on the scahles, it's fiddly work tha knows".

:mrgreen:  superb PD

Thats the best rant ever :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

I feel guilty for laughing because I know its a terrible thing to have but you van't help it really.Mike baldwins really funny  :D  Makes me laugh when he gets in a strop. 'I want to see alma!!!'.I never realised he was such a good actor.

I'm enjoying the eastenders episodes of late more though. With the mitchell brothers! I liked the bit where they went into a cafe and some bloke kept taking the piss out of them, calling them 'right said fred'. Phil then kicked his ass big time in the toilets  8)

American Idol repeats are not on itv today though, Not happy.

saucey

:shock:  Whatever turns you on bennett....

really hits home does this...

My gramp was in a similiar position to Mike....early days....somedays he was fine others he didnt recognise anyone....really hit and miss.

He like Mike, then had a stroke. Sadly the stroke finally did it for my gramp  :cry:

do you wanna know who got voted out?? it wasn't very good tbh tho.

yeah yeah tell me if you know!  :D  Please! I'm addicted.

lisa, the black girl with the long curly hair.......me too, it's quality!! who do you want/reckon will win??

My Grandad died of it as well .It got to the point where the only thing he could remember was my Mums dog..

Mike is still hilarious though.

I'm glad she went, She was good through the auditions but got a bit shite towards the end.

I want the dude with the grey hair to win  :D  He's quality or chris.

My old Nan had it as well.  Towards the end she had a mouth like a fishwife   :D

American Idol is good for the first few weeks and then it goes downhill from there.

I still like watching them all cry though. And cowells funny.

The best one was when they showed this dopey kid who had met a friend at the auditions, he did his awful audition and then they walked off into the sunset together like some demented couple.  :mrgreen:

Me and my Dad were in tears of laughter

i think the guy with the grey hair is very overrated. i want chris to win or the mandesa to win
