Nice bit of light heartedness last night with Mary's double entendres, only she could get away with it. Brian doesn't seem to be a fan favourite but Peter Gunn is a good actor, his reaction made it clear he was thinking what the viewer was thinking.

Made us laugh out loud, anyway.

Peter gunn... wasn't that an art of noise song?

[barry1010]

It was well known piece of music long before Art of Noise - written by Henry Mancini and it was the theme to the Blues Brothers and used in other films

[barry1010]

Forgot to say it was the theme tune to a tv series called Peter Gunn

Two of my least favourite characters I'm afraid. I know Mary is quite popular, but she's never done anything for me, I think she's too over the top. Brian and this Italian thing is getting on my wick!

i bought the record

[barry1010]

I remember it well, loved Duane Eddy

[barry1010]

fitd, I can understand Mary being over the top for you, I used to feel the same about Diggory Compton and Reg Holdsworth. And that young woman in the factory - what was her name?

[barry1010]

Kelly Crabtree

I'm no fan of Mary or Brian. Mary does my head in. Another stupid story line!

[nero2024]

where does Mary live ? what happened to the camper van ?good actress but silly script writers and Brian lines just as ridiculous,

[barry1010]

Mary lives in Eileen's house. Todd reported the motorhome to the council and she had to get rid, that's when she moved in to Dev's.

[brainiac]

No doubt Brian's recently-discovered relation in Italy will soon prove to be a scammer....

[fitdarren]

Corrie is famous for over the top characters, nice to see I'm not the only one who doesn't always find them amusing!

nero, Mary lives in Eileen's over crowded house. The camper van is long gone.

Who was Diggory Compton? I don't recognise that name at all.

I don't remember him either yet I watched most episodes!

[elliemay1]

Some of Brian's lines are ridiculous, have the writers forgotten that he was once the Principal of a school?

[barry1010]

Diggory was Molly's dad

[KUSTARD]

Thanks for that Barry and Ellie. I remember Molly coming into it with her dad but I still didn't recognise him when I looked at Ellie's link.
