Phelan deserved better than that, and even worse it was the at the hands of wet drip Eileen.

They've obviously left it open ended purposefully so they'll be able to bring him back sometime in the future with a load of publicity.

A good 15/20% of murders in this country have to be on soaps surely

Yeah. And if soaps are meant to be real, how come no one ever needs a shit?

Exactly.

 

And why can't we have a silent half hour episode of corrie where everyone's head is buried in their phones or tablets....just like in real life

It always cracks me up when someone walks into a pub in Soapland and says, "Pint please.". Pint of what? Milk? 10w-40 motor oil? Help the bartender out pal, he/she's not a mindreader.

 

Another one, and this is particularly specific to EastEnders, is when a market stall holder has an emergency to attend to and turns to the random person standing nearest to them, tosses them their money pouch, and says, "Look after the stall for a bit.".

a) The punch line was crap

b) Why be a mind reader just read the fvcking script.

 

And the main point

 

c) It's not real.

I reckon it could be advertising guidelines- if a character says that s/he wanted a pint of Stella or whatever then it could be seen as advertising.

 

With that said,  I cannot see why not s/he could have said a pint of lager or whatever.

They could just call it Stella Fartois & avoid any lawsuits

 

Like Corrie's very own search engine Voggle

 

Image result for coronation street voggle

If Phelan survives that, it's even more ridiculous than the vicar falling off a cliff and becoming a drug addict. lol

They're allowed product placement now on Corrie. Have you noticed lots of characters now walking around with Costa coffee cups? They're also about to get a Co-op. Dev won't be happy about that. I'm sure it won't be long before a lager brand gets in on the action.

 

Toyah: What'll it be Tyrone?

Tyrone: I'll have a pint of Carlsberg.................probably.

It was a shot in dark.  I have not watched Corrie properly for ages now.  

 

I predict a storyline where the iconic cobbled street is relaid with a bog standard asphalt road soon.   Imagine the uproar for that one lol
