Kathy’s 7-6 skit I actually couldn’t breathe 😭😭 the writing isn’t all bad these days it seems! When Grant inevitably goes back to Portugal, I beg that he takes Mark with him, he is PAINFUL. He won’t be going anywhere judging from the flash forward episode but god I cannot stand him, at least with the likes of Bea who is also godawful there’s some form of laughability factor.

Thank GOD Rylan was ruled out, we don’t need him on our screens after his racist outburst, why he still gets given the time of day I do not know. Would be here for Emma/Angela!

It’s been a rollercoaster in regards with Diane, she’s been one to root for but also been one who’s been pretty annoying in cycles, but there’s no denying that this was a pretty sad episode and it was clear that her time was up from the start of this episode. The aftermath will no doubt be heartbreaking. Looking forward to seeing what Brooke Vincent’s character has to offer as she was always one of the few only interesting actors to come from Corrie. Also I may be biased because Rebecca Ryan is a cracking actress but I absolutely love Beth popping off in every scene 😅

This really is a cracking group! Morphine is rubbing me up the wrong way a little bit though - are we supposed to believe that she was going to give her point to Lucky if she received her point? I don’t think so. But I do like how there’s not really much in the way of forced drama, just great drag and even Mystique has stepped it up a bit! Dawn/Morgan/Akeria absolutely deserved their wins including those who won their lipsyncs but damn it hurt not seeing Lucky not get a top placement with that incredible look she did for the second challenge, but a top placement is some form of flowers and both Dawn and Akeria were outstanding.

An absolute SONG Pieces Of Me is!! Imo better than anything Jessica has ever done (Outta My Head too).

Is there a petition against the trend of horrible graphic design for album covers yet 😭 I blame Charli Xbox entirely. I’m actually intrigued to hear what she comes out with but that cover is horrendous.

Look Mum No Points more like 😬

Madison clears this week!

Her more recent stuff is either solid 11/10 or a bit messy, and for me sadly this falls into the latter (Attention/Boy Crazy also belonging there) but I thought similar with Joyride which grew on me months after its release to become an absolute banger so maybe this will do the same!

Lovergirl and the extended Locket theme are stunning! The other two are decent too but place middle on the album, could grow though.

+5: Midnight Sun +4: Drop Dead +3: Beauty And A Beat +2: Dracula +1: Fever Dream -1: Rein Me In -2: Billie Jean -3: Beat It -4: Lush Life -5: Homewrecker

Omg this lineup is incredible!! Miranda, Joe and both Jameses will bring so much entertainment. Also love Leigh-Anne, Julie and Sharon - hope we get a traitor out of at least one of them!

I could also shout about a LOT of Pokemon music, but this one in particular really hits every feel:

The PP remix of Midnight Sun goes tf OFF!! So here for the DJ Fresh influence!!
