Almost every episode there's a few things that just wouldn't happen in real life.
None of Tony Gordons family get past 40 because of hereditary heart disease yet when he gets pains in his chest he thinks its indigestion.
Manages to look after Maria by taking out life insurance despite family history of heart disease.
Debt collector takes van off Joe without any documents and also ignores boat on drive.
Builder takes slates off Dev's roof, a task which for one bloke going up and down a ladder would have taken all day but Dev doesn't notice.
Same builder drops down aluminium ladder from 1st storey with hands on sides of ladder but no gloves but doesn't burn hands.

I haven't heard football discussed for a long time, apart from that bloke who pretended he was a pro footballer so he could bash Rosie's back doors in. Used to be plenty of mentions of Man City years ago.
they used to discuss Weatherfield Rovers ..Curly, Jack, Kevin for starters used to go the matches...but I can see how Man City could be mistaken for them 
Anyone see fridays episode

Emily was in the early stages of Alzheimer's about 10 years ago.
Can't remember drugs being mentioned except when Joe got mashed on painkillers.Corrie= drug free zone.
The Pea**** are moving to another area but no word of how they will sell the butchers or get a mortgage or rent in the new area without jobs.

In the Rovers the barmaids must be psychic, the customers just ask for a pint and the barmaid knows that they mean bitter or lager or ****ss...

Natasha leaves without suitcase or belongings and in the same dress she's worn for days.

Trevor still has n't broken Nick Tilsley's jaw.

anything minor starts up in the Factory and the staff are told

colin fishwick hasnt started to smell.
yes, but would the smell not begin to seep out ? im not au fait with bodies encased in concrete though. i stand to be corrected egg 
Emily Bishop would never be seen in a dive like the Rovers
Depends how deep it is I suppose.
I missed the bit when they dumped the body.

it is quite deep egg, dont know how the story will unfold to be honest.
No-one gets away with anything in Corry.
exactly, the viewing public can't be seeing crime to pay. we cant have a crime ridden society. oh wait a minute....
you never see Eddie Windass playing in one of the big golf tournaments or with a Cuban cigar and a glass of Rioja!
slightly off-topic but that wheelchair bird is very punchable.
A bit like the boy in Eastenders.

Many moons ago, there was a "live race" in the Corrie bookies, purportedly from Haydock according to the commentary. Track was right handed though.
More recently, someone enquired the price of a horse in an up and coming race, to be told instantly by Leanne (thinly veiled "BonnieDday is a Corrie addict")that is was 40/1. No reference to a screen or to Corrie equivalent of SI S. I wish my local was that quick. She didn't even offer him £1 at 40s and the rest at 12s, or "win only, sir". Being a small independent, I don't suppose Barlow's needs a head office to cower behind.
I think it's already been mentioned that they're all skint but spend their evenings in the pub and mornings in Roy's. Have they not heard of "austerity measures" (yuk) in the Street?

That Irish barman in the Rovers is supposed to be a lady's man with countless conquests, yet hasn't even got a smelly finger off Michelle.

Someone with ginger hair could never pull, let alone an attractive young lass like her.
that family are attracted to gingers though. Her sister was humping Gary Windass and the Dad is sorting out Liz McDonald.
As has been mentioned, Emily Bishop had Alzheimers 10 years ago and as someone who has run a pub there is no way that Steve Mcdonald could have as much social life as he does AND run another business.
And why is there no pervert knocking one out in the bus stop everytime Rosie Webster flounces up and down the street

Tram hits Dev's shop and he's at cash & carry...it's just wrong!(December)
Rosie's in trouble(following a kitchen fire) and nobody has offered to decorate her back room.
David bangs head & loses his memory

I know it's only a soap but the scriptwriters seem to have a very thin grasp of what goes on in the real world and the latest story with Phelan and the property scam is ridiculous. People paying £15000 deposit on apartments and no-one has noticed that there have never been any workmen on site. Sarah coming up with the deposit and getting a mortgage although all she's got is a part time job in the Rovers. I could go on...............
