OCTOBER 19
Maria and Tony are celebrating hatches, matches and
dispatches this week. Hatches because it's Baby Liam's christening;
Matches because Tony asks Maria to marry him (and the lady with the
dim brain, she say YES!); and Dispatches because Tony's now figuring
out a way to get Carla out of his life and it's a way that'll start
with MUR and end in DER. Yes, Carla is back, turning up at Liam's
graveside for a cosy chat with Tony. She tells him she knows all
about Maria and baby Liam and warns him to leave Maria and
Manchester or she'll reveal all. Exciting as it is to have the dark
lady back, I did wonder why she just didn't go to the cops. I mean,
you know, you would. Far greater revenge from Carla to exact on Tony
would be to hole him up in a deserted house with just Mammy Connor
for company, driving him slowly insane. Now that's a spin-off DVD if
ever there was one.
More exciting news this week is that Luke Strong
has done a runner with £90k of Rosie Webster's cash. She thinks
she's giving Luke the money in exchange for his share of Underworld,
which would in theory make her the boss. She doodles with the idea
of changing the factory name to 'English Rosie's Quality Underwear'
although a better name, surely, would have been 'Dozy-Rosie Pants'.
When she finds out that Luke's left, cleared out his flat and her
bank account, she sobs to Sally. "How much did you give him?" a
stunned Sally asks. "Ninety," sobs Rosie. "Ninety pounds?" asks
Sally, wondering why Rosie's so upset until the full shock hits her
and she goes home, too shocked to even bicker with Kev.
Speaking of Kev, he's still having his fling
with Molly and it's just as nasty as it was last week and as bad as
it'll be next.
Speaking of someone who rhymes with Kev, Dev's
having problems with Uncle Umed in the shop. Umed lets Teresa sleep
in the back room of the shop when she's destitute after Darryl
leaves the Street for Spain. Why Teresa, a woman of many talents,
couldn't have just broken into her old house was lost on me, but she
ended up on Lloyd's sofa instead. Lloyd locked himself in his
bedroom, just in case. She does however get her hands on her man
when she massages Lloyd, telling him she's got healing hands: "I
once cured a lame donkey on Blackpool beach in 1973".
Across the street, Joe and Gail's relationship
hits a rocky patch when Joe buys a boat and moors it on Gail's
drive. The boat comes to the Street via Aunty Pam after she chases
up someone who owes money to Bill. She doesn't get the money but
gets the boat instead. Gail's a bit stunned when she sees what Joe's
gone and done. "Sometimes, just sometimes…" she tells Audrey, in
disbelief, "you just have to sit down."
And that's just about that for this week.
Coronation Street writers this week were Lucy
Gannon, Damon Rochefort, Julie Jones, John Kerr and Jonathan Harvey.
