Terrorists, slippery little blighters.? Like involuntary erections, they raise their heads at the weirdest moments.? An apparently they don’t like Corrie.
Quite how anyone could not love the quaint but factually accurate representation of everyday life in the northern wastelands is quite beyond us.? It’s not like it’s the street is a depraved hive of alcohol laced, naked rompery, randomly burning religious books or even extols the virtues of bacon.
But no matter, there has been a very serious terror threat made against tonight’s live edition of Corrie.? The hour-long live, unedited and hopefully blooper filled episode follows and explosive edition that featured explosions, trams and people calling eachother ‘chuck’…. probably.
The Greater Manchester Police confirmed that they were taking intelligence of a possible attack very seriously, prompting countermeasures which will involve all cast and crew to submit to body searches before filming starts.? We are looking forward to this episode, purely to see if we can spot who got the ‘special search’ with a cold? rubber glove .
A spokesman for the programme then added a whole other layer of drama;
“Al-Qaeda are desperate to pull off a ‘spectacular’ in Britain. The police clearly are acting on fears that a strike on the Corrie studios is a very real possibility.”
Which is just bloody brilliant. What a way to hype up the viewing figures, tonight’s live episode could turn into a Christmas time terrorist spectacular, like Die Hard.? But on cobbles.
We’ve never been so excited by a soap, and we do ‘Ender’s spoilers.? How can you not be excited when the show’s own spokesman says;
“It’s a nightmare scenario. For Corrie bosses there is the possibility of this tragic episode turning into a real-life tragedy”
Action! Explosions! Disaster! Porcelain Ducks! Tune in or miss out!
Of course this could all be a shameless promotional stunt, but we hope it’s not.? Obviously we hope nobody gets hurt, in real life.? And obviously we don’t promote acts of outrageous violence.? But we’re seeing the birth of a new form of entertainment, reali-soap.? It’s a soap that could well involve moments of uncontrolled interestingness. Next will be Hollyoaks, but with Russian Roulete, or the Eastenders cast struggling to recite their lines while struggling with amoebic dysentry.
Whatever happens, explosions or rampant squits, you’ll probably hear it somewhere else first.? But then come to us for truly tasteless jokes about it.? You sick little creatures.
