SEPTEMBER 29
Rosie is going to have her work cut out not to be
completely overshadowed by Sophie given the way the later is
developing her brains and speaking powers - in the latter case the
fish fingers obviously did some good - especially when she points
out if Kev had sold Ty his share for £325 she could go skiing with
the rest of the class! Rosie of course will always excel at looking
cheap and tarty no matter how expensive the clothes and in the
Rovers waiting for Tony she almost looks over dressed for once.
Anyway Tony has made it up with Carla who will go to the ball and
she gets a public dumping. Empty headed Rosie lets her mouth do the
talking and tells Kevin just how Tony knew how much the business was
worth - the turnover, contracts - and she handed it over - because
he is a dinosaur - even Mum says so (although Sal denies
it).
The following day Carla tells him it was a big mistake
to upset the hired help and he is to cheer her up. So Tony offers
Rosie a meal in a big grown up hotel - Baden House. They enjoy pinot
grigio, which Rosie pours down her throat like the cider she is more
used to consuming and gets just a lot tipsy. At the end of the meal
she gives Tony a surprise of her own - obviously a room key hidden
inside a napkin. He signs the bill as to both his and the waiter's
surprise he is staying! He finds the room and wanders in and we are
all treated to the sight of Rosie wearing a bodice which just about
covers her nipples and her bottom and not a lot else. She is
offering him a glass of champagne and much more but once again she
gets rejected - Carla is the woman for him. Once again empty headed
Rosie opens her mouth and this time points out that Carla has other
fish to fry and to prove her point shows him the mobile video of
Carla kissing Liam from a few weeks ago. Tony has little choice but
to believe her, pours coffee down her to sober her up, get some
clothes on her and then he departs telling her to find her own way
home. However he keeps her mobile and we see no more of Rosie, so
she is our first missing person of the week.
Takes Sally a
while to realise that Rosie did not come home and she starts
worrying. Kev and Sophie are not worried in the slightest.
Eventually the police are called and both Tony and John are
interviewed. Tony tells most of the truth, but does not mention the
mobile which he drops in the canal. John however answers the
questions in a funny way. He was on duty the previous evening in the
town centre and the police do not seem to check the log of his
movements. Now where did Fiz say the lonely house was?
Liz
realises that she has been completely stupid - not because of
Vernon's departure but over Harry, so she sits down with Clarissa
and they plan a comeuppance for Harry. Harry is summoned to the back
room of the Rovers where Liz ensures that he removes most of
clothing (and to be honest I am not going any further with that) to
a point at which Clarissa appears and can be seen taking photographs
of him to make him look a complete fool. He is made to depart
largely unclothed through the bar to the obvious amusement of the
drinkers. Humiliated Harry decides to leave Weatherfield and go and
see his old mates, he is giving up on women. Within days however he
is on the phone to his son offering first refusal on the business as
he needs the money for something new. Where will Dan find any money
- in case you had forgotten there is a credit crisis and banks in
the UK no longer lend money (and no-one with a half a brain is
paying any money into a bank in case it is the next one to go bust).
So the second missing person is Harry - a short stay but I bet he
enjoyed it!
And that brings us to R'Janice and R'Leanne who
are running the old lottery scam - cash the cheque and spend the
money! And they have this wonderful idea - a false identity and
address - Rosie Webster living in the empty flat next to Jan's. Jan
gets some false ID from a man in a pub and a bank account is opened
and the cheque collected and banked. Explanation to the Street
residents is the death of R'Jan's favourite uncle that no-one has
ever heard her mention. The two agree not to touch the cash - well
for a while, except that Jan and Roger want a new HUGE (sorry cannot
do large enough typeface) flat screen telly so that they can see
themselves in HD! (The thought of Janice's scowl is HD is enough to
curdle the milk in the fridge). And Leanne has a bright idea of her
half share as well.
Maria thinks she is pregnant as she is
feeling sick this morning. Oh no it is only food poisoning.
Yawn.
Jelly Roll Morton, Kayleigh (the love of Chesney's
life) and Findlay (the one who was not Lloyd's son) go on holiday,
but the kids do not know they are not coming back as Jelly forgot to
tell them. Three more people for Glenda not to write about. It
really is becoming a ghost town. Can anyone explain the finances or
sense behind a man who is clearly not well moving to Spain with two
young kids and no local support mechanism or family? No me
neither.
And Tony is thinking fast. He tells Carla that he
has to meet an old friend for the evening. Instead he hangs around
outside Carla's flat. Tom has returned from the USA and needs to
update the business partners on the new product he has seen. After a
while Tom decides he is going night clubbing and departs leaving
Carla and Liam alone together. Liam makes a pass and Carla refuses
at least in side the building telling him to go. But outside,
obviously in full view of mad, staring eyed Tony they share a long
passionate kiss.
Will there be another body or missing person
or both by Wednesday?
