Corrie's Ryan .............

[Ann]

Bit silly, don't you think, to change his personality as well as his face!

[hc4361]

Hair. Lots and lots of black hair.

[chaptazbru]

Gosh, four years ago - that's gone quick ! He had very long dark hair craft -always getting in his eyes it was ! At least the new Ryan is still dark .....

[Smowball]

Thats the annoying thing - they do these huge storylines then just totally forget about them a few months later.
btw think the "son" is meant to be a lot younger than 24 isnt he?

[hc4361]

He's supposed to be 20

[chaptazbru]

Between 18 and 20 I think, not really sure. I know Michelle was supposed to have had him very young !

[chaptazbru]

hc - we're going to have to start conferring here (lol).

A bit off topic, but is anybody else enjoying the story line of the developing friendship between Roy and Mary. I think it's hilarious. His face is a picture when he realises she is interested in trains (or she pretends to be). Roy is such a gem. Corrie is at it's best IMO when it sticks to the everyday banter between the different characters, ie Norris and Mary, Ken and Dreary (arguing), Steve trying to outwit Tracey. Of course I'm not suggesting that should be the only component but there have been some great comic couples. Oh and yes, Ryan is unrecognisable both in appearance and character.

Totally ridiculous! I keep muttering to OH "I'm not going to watch this anymore - it's stupid" Then next episode - yes, I'm back for more, and yet more muttering. The other thing that puzzles me, is surely the script writers have noticed that Simon is a different colour to his father and mother (Lucy the florist). I expect one day he'll go up to his bedroom to read and come down about 4 months later with a new head! And yes, Roy, Mary, Hayley are marvellous. Nice to see Lloyd back too.

"I seem to have dropped some piccalilli on your bishop". Priceless.

[Smowball]

So will Ron end up showing Mary his trainset?? : )

[chaptazbru]

horseshoes - 'Simon is a different colour to his father and mother'. What do you mean ?

[cupid04]

Roy might, who is Ron? lol!

[Smowball]

Ha! Roy lol. ( or maybe Ron??)

[crisgal]

peter is dark skinned with thick black hair.
Although, i can see in a few years, after all the upset, some morrocan chap turning up claiming to be his dad!
Simon's not peter's!)

[ladybirder]

I seem to have dropped some piccalilli on your bishop. Priceless.

Yes Chrissa, a perfect example of a priceless line! Delivered beautifully by Mary. Just cracked me up.

[horseshoes]

@ chaptazbru. I think he's not white, that's all. Nothing meant by it - just an observation!

[chaptazbru]

In your first line crisgal, do you mean Simon ?
I know Simon is dark, but he's still a white little boy isn't he - just dark skinned as some are. Peter is dark too .....

[Smowball]

err,Simon is definitely white. With mad hair!

[chaptazbru]

I know you didn't mean anything by it horseshoes, I just can't see how anyone can think he's other than white. Lots of white people have dark skin (my OH does!). I've just said on another post that Peter is dark too ....

[chaptazbru]

Agree Smo .....
