Janice always reminds me of Zippy from Rainbow

Actually, you are both right.

Isn't Janice supposed to be leaving soon?

I heard some 12 months back that she was leaving.  She's taking ages to go. 

Yes i think she is Yogi

I bet they don't even give her a decent exit storyline.

David Platt got a big storyline coming up soon with that Kyle one, i find David very boring now....

Gail Platt must have been at the back of the queue when they were handing out sons, what a pair - David and Nick.

David and Kylie, what a combination that will be.

Dont know the storyline, but it will be trouble, no doubt , and Gail will stick up for him, as per ......

  Just caught up with last night's episodes.....That Owen is truly horrid!!! As for John.....

Betty Driver was on DID on Sunday morning. It will probably be repeated this Friday morning coming. An absolutley tragic tale. Hats off to her for retaining such a positive attitude and a GSOH.

absolutely even.

Is it wrong to feel sorry for John, even though he's a murderer?

I felt a bit sorry for him too Yogi

Oh that Owen is a horrible character ,poor Eileen,yes she was stupid,but Owen is a psycho.Maybe Tracey can lamp him with an ornament,same as she did to that other builder Charlie.

 Good idea for a storyline Katty

We're either very soft-hearted, or a couple of mugs Baz.

OMG think i'm becoming a bit to obssessed with Carla.


I have no clue who Dennis Tanner is since he was in it from the beginning and is now coming back so i'll have to rely on you older generation for some information.

Darlo, I think he was the son of Elsie Tanner, but it was before I started watching.

Thank you Yogi.

What was she talking about Garage Joe? and whats DID? ta

Dennis Tanner is coming back? Blimey!

I'm gonna get told off now for not covering it up, apologies.

It's ok Darlo,all the soaps "leak" their plot lines all over the place.

no no darlo ... I want to know more I can't wait to tell my mum about it - she used to love him

It's in the papers and all over the net Darlo, so it's hardly a spoiler.

Here (highlight text)...


Dennis Tanner is to make a shock return to Coronation Street.


The son of Elsie and Arnold, Dennis - played by Philip Lowrie - appeared in the very first episode of the long-running ITV soap. He departed the Street in 1968, when he moved to Bristol with his wife.


Corrie's official website has confirmed that Lowrie will return to filming at the show in March and appear on screen again from May. Meanwhile, The Sun reports that he is reprising the role on a six-month contract.


"Dennis's return will throw the cat among the pigeons," a source told the paper. "Ken was always sparring with Dennis in the old days. They are still chalk and cheese."

They added: "Dennis was involved in dodgy dealing, theft, fights and spent time in borstal. He was the bane of mum Elsie's life."


The 75-year-old actor has worked on various television and stage productions since leaving the Manchester serial.

Darlo, how do you hide the text like that?

Highlight the text which has been posted into the textbox Yogi then click on the A icon, choose white and once the text is covered in white press enter at the end of it then press submit reply.

Thanks Darlo. I'll give it a go sometime.

Cheers darlo

I can't believe he's 75 ... I think my mental image of him is about to be ruined

DID is desert island discs btw.

PMSL well if you watch EE Rexi then you'll be pleased about David Essex.


Get some practice in Yogi!.

Darlo help! I highlight my text, click on the A, choose white, but when I press enter the text disappears and it says I haven't provided a comment. Am I pressing the wrong enter button?

I press the one near the backspace but don't think it really matters Yogi, try again sometimes I had that problem till getting the hang of it.

Okay, I'll give it another go.

Has it worked?


Yes it has!

Thank you Darlo.

Dennis Tanner is 75 ? Blimey . Didnt know he was coming back

Thanks GJ, i've just read someone else's post. must remember to watch it when it's on
