a blog on here callwd chesterbenni posts loads of spoilers for corrie

Ooh, thanks. 

MAJOR SPOILERS:

Wow… From @chesterbenni​ (and apparently kanawarrior on twitter):

“To her horror Zeedan hands around glasses of whiskey and forces her to confess about her affair. When he reveals that her lover is a woman her parents and [sic] stunned but he is shocked by their next move.”

…so…he outs her? I can’t even get over the different parts in this. I’m already freaking stuck on the glasses of whiskey! So knowing that they frown on drinking and that they know he doesn’t drink and they disapprove of Rana drinking, he’s going to rile them up deliberately first by doing that? I can’t expect the alcohol to be received well. Then FORCES her to confess and THEN OUTS HER? Jesus. 

I really didn’t expect this to happen so soon. But if their reaction surprises him…maybe they’re NOT actually horrible about it? Or like, are, but not in a typical “how could you, disgusting, we’re disowning you” kind of way, but instead, “we always wondered/not surprising, well, we don’t know how you put up with her, Zee, she’s your problem now, fix this?” I mean, it can’t be that they’re onboard with it, that wouldn’t make dramatic sense (nor be at all reflective of what the storyline’s aiming for in even trying to represent this arc), plus we know her father makes Zee an offer, so clearly they’re trying to brush it aside. It’s all so repulsive no matter what, yuck. God, and I thought it was gonna go slow.

Do you think rana will stay with Zee if he blackmails her? (I don’t think that’s the right way to phrase it sorry)

The phrasing’s totally clear. 🙂

I…think she will. For a bit. If she were a real person, maybe not, but as a character in a soap? I don’t see the point of even bringing it up if she won’t give in, for at least a little while. If it were to show her growth in refusing, well, her already telling him is evidence of growth enough!

It does depend on what he blackmails her with and what he wants from her. Although, I feel we’re going down this road a lot quicker than we need to, we’re not even sure if he does blackmail her, and if it’s an actual scheme past his initial, desperate wish that she not leave.

Where’s the spoilers saying Zeedan blackmails Rana? I haven’t seen that, only that he finds Rana upset?

Oh, my friend pasted them to me and I assumed she got them from one of the places…people…get…spoilers? Lol, I don’t know where they come from, other people do the work. 

Okay, digging into it, if you just…search on Google (…?) for the episode number, the description of the ep’s right there. I don’t know how legit that is, but you can try it for yourself: https://www.google.com/search?q=coronation+street+season+19+episode+42

This is the episode text, for what it’s worth.

Sally and Dev look for Gina; Zeedan threatens to expose Rana; Zeedan gets an offer from Rana’s dad.

And if you look at other descriptions of earlier eps, they line up. Still, probably best to take it with a grain of salt, I dunno how it all works.

Have you seen the new spoiler pictures of Kate and rana? Zeedan apparently blackmails rana into staying with him and then it all goes down from there

I did see those, I did. Those aren’t the exact interpretations of the spoilers, I’d say, but that it’s even one of them is alarming for Zee’s characterization. Threatening to expose her? I’m sorry, whaaat? And her parents are there now??

 Although, although, it makes a huge difference to me if HE thinks, oh, she had an affair with a dude and thinks her parents can convince her to stay with him, though I’m sure he knows they’ll only guilt and put pressure on her, it’s not going to be some loving “are you sure this is what you want?” conversation, so already, negative marks for Zee there. But if he knows she’s in love with a woman and threatening Rana about telling her parents that? NEGATIVE INFINITY MARKS.
