Corrie - John Stape Storyline

[supersuezy24]

Anyone else think they have dragged this storyline out way too long, it's so beyond ridiculous at this stage..the characters are just grating now.

But can someone tell me why they are digging up the factory floor?

But Fiz's reaction does happen in real life.
No monster gets away with monsterish behaviour by being outwardly monsterish.
Nobody wants to believe they are married to a monster.

There are plenty of real life examples of married serial killers getting away with murder without the spouse knowing, sadly.

i like ol john too, although the storyline is a bit daft, im ok with it,

but i am getting very very very tired of the becky, steve, max, tracey, amy, story line though ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

John very kindly pops by to feed them and take to the bathroom.he's considerate like that.

And it used to be that the highlight of the week would be Ena Sharple's milk stout was off. Changed times.

[sherrardk]

Where's he getting all this money from to feed three extra people?

[sandyRoe]

Are all three tied up in a basement? Wouldn't it be awash with waste of one sort or another?

Next week, John pushes Fiz into the hole but is caught in the act by Emily. A struggle ensues and Emily knocks John into the hole. She rushes home and gets an eiderdown that Percy gave her years ago. She then goes back over to the factory, fixes the drain problem, puts on John's boiler suit and helmet and fills the hole back in. The builder fella comes in just as Emily is finishing the filling-in of the hole. She keeps her head down and does her best John voice, before scurrying off and running abroad with mad Mary where they have a Sappho 3some with Claire in France.

"Nobody wants to believe they are married to a monster".

True, although perhaps transcending the purpose of this thread. Even more so, " Nobody wants to believe they have given birth to a monster".

[Arti]

My point about Fiz being a thicksh1t is not because she wasn't aware of John being a raving murderer, but the fact that he nipped out every five minutes and for long enough Fiz accepted his explanations. I hope John does her in before he leaves Corrie because she is one of the most irritating and patronising characters of all time.

[looobylooo]

just veering off slightly from the john stape story,
do you think sallys new fella took his knock back with his marriage proposal to her ok, or do you think we might see another side to him now...?

[yelenots]

It is very bizarre when you read all these comments!
Whats happended to Peter Barlow and that annoying little boy? Not been in it for ages!

[mike11111]

Totally unrealistic Arti. When Phyllis comes in and sees Emily interfering with Percy's bits her revenge knows no bounds. More to come, I promise you.

[Jemisa]

I've just realised Suezy you've put this thread in "Reality TV" so do you think its real then? and John really is digging up the floor as we speak?
'Big Brother' is Reality TV, or 'Come Dine with me' - Corrie is a soap.(& not real)

Yes, Mike, but apparently Phyllis phones Emily and anonymously threatens to kill her. Emily reports it to the cops, but Phyllis is not 'in the frame' because Emily describes the caller as a burly-sounding Yorkshireman.

[mike11111]

At the rate this thread is going I reckon that at least four of us are going to be offered jobs as scriptwriters.

[Arti]

Jem, stop it!! I've just sent a birthday card to Gail.

[mike11111]

I reckon Maude Grimes will roll in in her wheelchair and put the kibosh on the whole shenanigans.

[hc4361]

But for all its fault, it is entertaining.
I love it, warts and all.

[Arti]

I've loved Corrie for years, but the quality of it at the moment is probably the lowest it's ever been, in terms of production, storylines and script.

[pussnboots]

Actually it's all a dream, John comes out of the shower and Rosie,Fiz, Charlotte, Colin Fishwick, etc etc are all aliens from outer space.
