The Great Coronation Street Drinking Game

06_02_CORO_COLIN_RITA6.JPGAs tonight’s Corrie seems to centre around Tony Gordon, and this means lots of brooding, I’ve devised you all a little drinking game to make it more exciting. And wahey! Friday night means two episodes so by the end of it, you’ll be giggling and really very excited. Or, you’ll all be doing very bad Scottish accents and shouting “Muuuuurrrrrddddddurgh” at the telly. What do you need? Any bottle of spirit/wine/port. Or sweet sherry if you fancy doing an Emily Bishop. Some housemates or a cat to play along with. Otherwise it’s a bit pathetic.

Check out the rules after the jump. And remember, TV Scoop insists you drink responsibly. This is just for silliness, it’s not our fault if you call your ex and have a headache the next day.

1. Drink a shot every time Carla tells a rubbish fib about where she’s going, where she’s been and who she’s been talking to. My betting is you’ll get at least four bevvies out of this. Enjoy.

2. Take another shot every time Tony Gordon almost looks like he’s going to kill someone, but then does something entirely normal like making a cup of tea. This is called ‘suspense’.

3. In the Rovers? Well it’s only fair you have a drink for every one they have. Bonus points if they order scraggy looking Liz a bevvy too.

4. Smoker? Then why not have a fag every time young Becky does? (It’s not big and it’s not clever, TV Scoopers). Don’t make the cat smoke, that’s just mean.

5. Know-it-alls can be dull. So drink every time Norris, Roy or Ken say something remotely fact based. If it’s about trains, turn the telly off and go to the pub.

6. You might also want a bevvy each time Ken flirts with his new lady friend. Norris too for that matter. *Shudder.*

7. If Gail gets through a scene without blinking thousands of times, have yourself another drink to celebrate.

8. How many times can they say ‘murder’ tonight? A drinking point for each time. Double drinking points if the snarling Scot himself says it. I swear if he exhales like an angry bull any more I’ll throw my shoe at the telly. No drinks for ‘word a bit like murder but not really’. Cheat.

9. David Platt might not be old enough to drink yet, but you can have a beer every time he gets remotely jealous about absolutely nothing.

10. Takeaway bonus! Get yourself a kebab every time they do! Soak up all that gin you’ve drunk, you great big lush.
