I have a question about an upcoming storyline, I will spoiler tag it so not to ruin it for anyone watching for the first time.

My wife and I dip in and out of Classic Corrie and by chance we found the Richard Hillman saga on Youtube which is pretty much his entire story. We've been making our way through it but there was a bit missing. I wondered if anyone remembered what happened.

Richard was at Audrey's at the time that he was making it look like she had dementia. He had snuck in and it looked like he was about to mess with her tablets or something, but Gail and Audrey turn up at the house and he ends up hiding in an airing cupboard and realises that he left his mobile phone on her table just as Gail says she will ring him. It cuts away to the next episode at that point and it is bugging us how he managed to get out of that situation. Can anyone remember? I don't think these scenes are too far away from airing on ITV3 so I'll keep an eye out. Thanks!
 
Look who’s coming back from the dead to play Jacobs dad.

Is anyone else watching this and wishing they'd go back 20 years and start again
During the first lockdown I watched lots of episodes from the 70s and the early 80s and they were wonderful. I particularly loved Elsie Tanner, and Bet Lynch. Was struck by now good Julie Goodyear was at acting, before the character of Bet became a parody of herself.

It’s hilarious for me watching Deidre cause back in the day my mum was the spit of her with the glasses and hair style. So much so her nickname that me and my best friend still call her is Rachide 😂
When we were away for the weekend there was a couple on the next table to us in the pub, and the woman had the exact same style as Deirdre Barlow's dreadful perm from the late 80s.

The episode when she was pregnant and lost the baby.
Her and Alec Gilroy’s reaction…no drama or shouting. It was so emotional.
