I'm still here lol but then I am a Fools Book hater since Day One.
From time to time FB emails me asking don't I want to join and see .....photos - usually the name of a grandchild. If that doesn't show
how invasive they are, I don't know what will. Same grandchildren
have been threatened with execution if my name is mentioned, far less
any pics are there that I am in.
Our sked here in Canada is different to yours, on as usual at the
moment. We get two episodes on Friday night, I only watch one and pick
up the other usually on Sunday nights. I was thinking while I watched
scenes last night (Carla with Peter in hospital) how used I have
become to 'social distancing' - didn't seem abnormal that she was
sitting on a chair remote to him on the bed.
So it would seem you can teach old dogs new tricks :-®

I'm still here too!
I don't like it when Football messes with the schedules.:-(
As you are a bit behind, be warned of a bit of a surprise social distancing wise
coming up! Done very cleverly.:-)

True - I have become used to people oddly speaking to each other from
what used to be unusual distances.
One thing I find odd on Corrie is the way people wear masks (err, sorry
the UK government refuses to use that word, so it's 'face coverings')
when they are alone, especially outside, and then take it off while
talking to someone in the Rovers or the Cafe.
That is backwards to what people do around here. (Usually) no mask is
worn when alone, especially outdside, and the mask goes on as one gets
close to others or enters a building.

I find it particularly odd in the hospital scenes. People come in from outside and take off their masks yet a hospital is the one place that
more than any other needs safety rules to be followed!

It does look odd, doesn't it. They do tend to be in their own bubbles
I suppose, but it isn't what you expect to see.
Still, as I said, for the clarity of the scene, taking them off - for
our benefit - does make sense!

Oh, agreed. Given that they stopped filming for a while when the first lockdown was in place, using up episodes that were already in the can,
it seemed as if the Covid restrictions appeared overnight in
Weatherfield with people suddenly wearing masks and observing social distancing.
I read somewhere that at the beginning of last year, when plans for the
60th anniversary were being drawn up, one idea was for Tyrone to come
down with an infectious disease from the last remnants of Jack's pigeons
and for it to rapidly spread throughout the Street. The idea was
rejected as being too far-fetched!
