I agree, i think it was really respectful of ITV to postpone it for the rest of the week, following the tragic events in Cumbria.

Yeah so do I, it would'nt of been right to have shown them this week, considering whats happened in Cumbria

So, we finally got to see the episodes(well, two of them).The slightly dysfunctional side of me had to smile at the continuity announcer talking about "Last week's disruption of the schedules", probably thinking "Why did it have to happen that week?"I can see why that first episode in particular got pulled.Sorry to be cynical but no-one ever pulls a television programme for the sake of the families of those killed or injured, who are probably not going to sit down that night and watch Coronation Street.It's because there's always going to be people who try to blame television for a tragedy and if the episode had been shown they'd all have been going "See?That's the sort of thing that causes it!"

Anyway...Robbie's dead.If it's just him and Tony that cop it, then that will be, um, a cop out.Even if Carla gets dragged off in handcuffs as a result.The guy was a goner as soon as he aimed his gun at Tony, it was obvious one of them was going to have to take the fall and with two and a half episodes of Siege Week left it probably wasn't going to be Tony.Interesting that, up till that point, the situation was almost played for laughs with Tony and Carla bickering like, well, a married couple and Hayley's desperate attempts to connect with their captor.("Are you from Blackpool?")I wasn't expecting Tony to let Maria go like that, however reluctantly.Interesting to see how it all ends up.

Vera's ghost is set to make a comeback this year, according to The Sun!

^^ Haha yea! Its been denied..

[MeganSaturday]

Thank god, thats the silliest storyline I've ever heard!!

[ter06]

Yeah it's almost as silly as your dead daughter coming to visit you and everyone thinks you're insane, then she goes and the whole thing is forgotten about

I am always sceptical when TV shows bring people back from the dead, this is definitely not Corrie's style. In fact, it's probably the only show not to have brought someone back!

[MeganSaturday]

Haha its madness.

Much as I do love the world cup, I dont want to watch it 24/7. I hate how the soap schedules have been changed to accommodate it.

Yeah Emmerdale is barely on anymore and then my mum text me tonight to tell me Eastenders was on but by the time I turned on it was nearly over!
