News of Colin's death spreads fast as Julie wails
the length of Rosamund Street. Not only is she grieving but she
wants everyone to know it, especially Eileen, who Julie accuses of
being cold about the death of their dad. Eileen's grieving too, just
in her own way. Missing out on a great excuse to bring back Archie
Shuttleworth, the funeral goes ahead and Julie and Eileen thaw
towards each other while Rita makes her mind up to attend too late
and misses it all. Mind you, I'm surprised Blanche wasn't there with
her mint imperials and a Marian Keyes. Julie tries bonding with big
sister Eileen and brings round The Sound of Music on DVD. Eileen
gets stuck into the booze while Julie and Sean get teary during
Edelweiss. Oh me too, every time.
Chesney finds out that Fiz
has been visiting John in prison and isn't best pleased. He bribes
Eddie Windass with Les' Status Quo badge into telling him where he's
dropped Fiz off in his taxi. The passing of Les Battersby's Status
Quo badge to Eddie was symbolic in its way. It's the badge of a
feckless man and Eddie Windass now wears it with pride. Chesney
implodes with anger and spite at his stupid sister and then does the
grown-up thing and runs away. Fortunately he doesn't run very far
and ends up in the Windass's shed. Sophie finds out the reason
Chesney ran away and tells Sally and Kev who storm round to give Fiz
a piece of what-for. Ches then tells Fiz she has to make a
choice between him and John Stape and she heads to the prison
in tears. For once, the Stapester does the right thing and tells Fiz
he won't allow her to visit anymore because he can see how much hurt
that he's caused. Meanwhile, thousands of Corrie fans up and down
the country shout at their TV for Fiz to get a grip.
Norris
tries to get to cope with having brother Ramsay around. He's all for
ignoring him but Ramsay's not to be ignored. He's in the Rovers
getting filled in all on the gossip by Blanche, chatting up Rita and
Emily and joining in a sing-song of The Blue Ridge Mountains of
Virginia with Deirdre and Ken. Come on Corrie, if you're going to
get Deirdre singing in the Rovers, at least let her get her harmonic
out. Best line of the week went to Deirdre in the Rovers with
Ken at the bar. He orders a pint and Poppy says in surprise: “I
thought you were a half man?” to which Deirdre gets in quick with:
“Yes, that's always been his problem.” But it looks like
Norris and Ramsay might be thawing towards each other after Norris
wins the pub quiz tie-breaker, beating his brother.
And just
as Luke thinks he's getting somewhere with Michelle, she announces
she's off on a singing tour with JD and the band for six months.
This means Luke and Michelle have ten days together before she
leaves so he tells her he wants a holiday romance in the time that
they've got and sets up a paddling pool and deck-chairs in Maria's
back yard. It's all a bit contrived but it's a set up to see who
Michelle will end up with – Peter, Luke, or some other fella from
the Old Testament.
And that's just about that for this
week.
Coronation Street writers this week were Damon
Rochefort, Debbie Oates, Julie Jones, Jayne Hollinson and Joe
Turner.
