Liz McDonald's Facebook Page

spoiler alert: this post makes reference to the May 18 episode on CBC

What kind of information has Sean Tully included on Liz McDonald's Facebook page? Well, we know that he's written specific details about where she works and what she does and that he used the photo which Michelle took for the Weatherfield Barmaid contest. Now what else could he have included?

I wonder what Sean wrote for...

Liz's 'info'...
"Elizabeth Jayne McDonald is the lusty, busty and musty landlady at Rovers Return public house in Weatherfield - can't miss it, first pub on Coronation Street, next to the viaduct and a stone's throw away from the Red Rec. Bum slapping and leers encouraged." 

Or 'gender'...
"probably female but let's not get hung up on labels, okay?"    

Or 'Likes and Interests'...
(cigarettes, cleavage-revealing tops, pub management, younger men & booze)

Or 'relationship status'...
(single but I wish it were raining men)

Or who he put on Liz's 'friend' list...
(Deirdre, Jim McDonald, Violet, Jim McDonald, Vernon, Jim McDonald, Amy, Jim McDonald, Andy,  plus large numbers of unknown male Weatherfield punters)

Or what was posted on her 'wall'...
("fired Sean today but I'm really, really sorry and will rehire him with a raise because he's such a wonderful person")

  1. I don't think any of the characters ever said 'Facebook', but that is what we are led to assume they were using. I think one of them referred to it as the social networking 'thingy'. Maybe it's some kind of copyright issue? Considering all the attention she's gotten, Liz should go on herself and try to drum up a date or two!

  2. Hi and thanks for the comment. You're absolutely right about the unnamed social media site but when a punter came into the pub and told Liz he had 'poked' her, I just started automatically thinking Facebook. Thanks again and cheers, CH
