I completely agree. Though I reckon if it were more of a major/well known character, they would have had a build up to it, which to me, seems counter-intuitive.

Is Debbie's hotel now the only place people have weddings or any other functions?

Just like Craig is clearly the only policeman.


Coronation Street - Colm - 21-12-2021

Makes a change from the Bistro, though.

I'm amazed how they were allowed to use 'sl*ttly' twice at 8:30pm.

But in similar vein to:
  • The Bistro being 'the largest converted viaduct arch' in the world
  • The Rovers being 'the largest street corner pub'
  • A flat larger than the 'Corner Shop' above which it sits

Just dramatic license, I presume . . . I doubt anyone minds Big Grin

Really? Doesn't strike me as something you'd really struggle to get away with pre-watershed, particularly on an adult focussed show not long before the watershed. I've heard worse on pre-watershed TV plenty of times.

That's amusing - but it's incredibly easy for things like this to happen. I personally know a short film director who once left a massive light fully visible in the background, because she simply didn't notice.


Coronation Street - James2001 - 23-12-2021

And by the time they do notice it's too late to go back and refilm it.

I presume there is a way of blurring it out in post production if it was considered important enough?

Technically yes, but might that have been more distracting than the original gaffe?

They could definitely just cover it up with black to match the rest of the lanyard so the logo disappears. But either no-one realised or they just decided it wasn’t worth the bother as ‘Joe Public never clocks a damn thing’. Wink

Loved tonight's Christmas episode. Very feel good how Christmas episodes should be.

No deaths, explosions, armed sieges, murders etc. Nice to see Ken, Audrey and Gail all involved a lot tonight and Roy and Evelyn have both returned.


Coronation Street - JAS84 - 25-12-2021

Unlike Emmerdale...
Where the Woolpack has been destroyed!



Coronation Street - DavidWhitfield - 25-12-2021

Couldn't agree more [mention]Jez_CymruWales[/mention] - Audrey stumbling out of that fridge out of nowhere while David was doing all the cooking single-handedly (on his birthday!) had me howling.

Sue Nicholls undoubtedly the star of the show for me tonight.

"Right, pudding's nearly ready - how's everything in here?"
"Well, Carla and Peter have just run for it, Harry wanted to go and play with his big brother, the turkey was like cardboard, and Ken's got his bells out, so... anybody for Christmas pudding?"


Fantastic, and exactly the fun and uplifting sort of thing I needed from Coronation Street tonight.
