SurrealFootball: @IronicBanter Look at your bio. What does it imply if not that you are one level cooler than the people who do ironic banter jokes?

IronicBanter: @SurrealFootball Maybe I am cooler. Maybe I am less cool.
FatTonysTuning
SurrealFootball: @IronicBanter You've not thought this through. I think there are ways you could defend it, but you haven't thought of them yet.

 SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

Coming up this week - a supposedly relaxing night out makes Maria jealous when a waiter flirts with Marcus and she and Marcus end up having a row...will Maria and Marcus work it out...

THE TRADITIONAL NUCLEAR FAMILY HAS HAD ITS DAY

 Charlie's debate on whether the "traditional family has had its day" went live to air on YouTube (29th Jan UK / 30th Jan Australia) apart from a few frozen-screen glitches all went well. It was watched live by people on a variety of continents (even us Ozzies got to see it at a reasonable time). There were hook-ups to various participants in various time zones and countries - the only participant we didn't hear from due to technical difficulties was a Bishop from Africa. The format went smoothly but they ran out of time and many viewer questions went unanswered. At the end, the viewing audience had shifted in its opinion - as can be seen the above pie graphs.

Julie-Ann
BienSoeur: Dear All, thanks to @ChasCondouFans for info about this debate "Traditional Nuclear Family Has Had Its Day" get involved :-)
Julie-Ann
BienSoeur: Lovely Charlie Condou now speaking in “YouTube Versus” debate on changing idea of family:
# “Don’t all types of families deserve support not demonisation and condemnation?”
# "Single mothers do a fantastic job, come in for a hard time - single dads too."
# "Once upon a time women didn't have the vote, black people didn't have equality - society has moved on!"
# Charlie talking so much sense as ever. This is fun to be getting involved with their on-line debate!!
# Hey we got them to mention Bowlby's quote - "If a community values its children it must cherish their parents!"
# Evidence for Anne - "my son from single parent family recently achieved 3 grade A's at A level"
# Great point made on the debate - whatever our sexuality we all carry on the same parenting role
Julie-Ann

INTERVIEW: Corrie's Charlie Condou
Coronation Street's Charlie Condou reveals to Soaplife how a night out at a gay bar with Maria leads to a huge row and makes Marcus absolutely sure of one thing: he loves Maria!
How do Marcus and Maria get talked into going to a gay bar for a drink with Beth and Kirk?
"It's Beth's idea to win them round so Maria won't want them to stop living with her. Marcus and Maria don't want to go, but they can't get out of it. Being in a gay bar with Maria is quite strange for Marcus, but he tries to be as normal as possible about it."
Maria's still not happy, though...
"At first Marcus doesn't notice just how uncomfortable Maria is. She doesn't cope too well, particularly because the barman seems to be flirting with Marcus. It's all a bit too much for Maria and they end up having a row. She storms out and takes Kirk and Beth with her, leaving Marcus alone in the bar."
And he bumps into Sean…
"Things have thawed a little between them, but it's still an uncomfortable relationship. They sit and have a drink together, though, and it turns into quite a nice evening. In a weird way it makes Marcus realise how much he does love Maria and how much his life has changed."
What happens when he goes home to Maria?
"They both apologise at the same time. Marcus tells her he wants to commit to them being a family, then he puts his foot down with Beth and Kirk and tells them it's time for them to go. If he and Maria are going to do this, then they need to do it properly."
Could that include them having a baby?
"Marcus would love to, but obviously it’s early days for them and I don't think Marcus would want to jump into anything. He's far too sensible for that…"
