It normally takes me from first thing on Saturday morning until Monday lunchtime to produce my weekly Soapy Corners (and then I have another half a day’s admin etc to do on top of that), but I’m currently struggling to have even finished watching one week’s episodes before the next week’s start!
We’ve not had much #carchelle this week, have we – so there’s not a lot to say, but we Carla/Michelle fans can always find something to mull over, can’t we? I was interested in this exchange between Peter and Carla in the pub. “It’s always the quiet ones you’ve got to watch,” he proclaimed sanctimoniously. […]
Spotted the new name? Yes, I’ve decided (after a bit of feedback from my question last week) to change the name from Carla Corner to Carchelle Corner, as anyone who’s reading this is – presumably – of the same mindset as me and just waiting and hoping for Carla and Michelle to get together as […]
Many women go on a diet after Christmas. When you go on a diet you tend to crave the things you’re missing, and Corrie have put us all on the (very restrictive) Carla-Controlled diet, haven’t they? After having been gone for five whole months we were desperate to get her back and completely ecstatic to finally see […]
Cheated and broken-hearted. No, not Carla … US. Desperate, we were. Desperate for her and Michelle’s big reunion clinch, but it was Sean (the gay man: significant?) who was the lucky recipient of the Connor arms around him and the Connor lips on his face on Monday. The only proper hug we got to see between […]
Just a little taster for you: Carla’s back in the next few days, but Twitter’s been on fire with a photo of Ali and Kym kissing at an Awards ceremony last weekend. I’m not using that photo. I prefer this one (as I love the look on their faces), but the reason I’ve done this […]
. Big news! Just read on Twitter (Tuesday 13th November) that Peter’s going to dump Carla and declare his love for Leanne in scenes to be shown in Coronation Street next month. I’d read this spoiler several months ago but haven’t actually seen it confirmed until this morning, and it’s the news that #carchelle fans everywhere have been […]
Alas, there IS no Carla Corner this week. There hasn’t been anything to say, has there? Will Michelle cave in under Steve’s relentless attentions, or might Rob sweep her off her feet? I don’t want to think about either of those scenarios, but I guess it’ll be one or the other … As long as […]
(Do check out my post ‘The Carla Connor Phenomenon’ (15th July) by clicking on Carla Corner if you haven’t seen it yet and aren’t in that section as you read this post.) It’s an extra-long Carla Corner today. We’ve got a lot to think about after the events of the last few weeks, and I […]
Many Soap characters take an extended break – either to cover a real life pregnancy, personal crisis, or simply as an opportunity to just recharge their batteries after an extremely protracted storyline. Last night saw the departure of Coronation Street’s Carla Connor for a four-month break, and – boy – does she deserve it. Having been […]
