Corrie weekly updates from 1995 Coronation Street Books by Glenda Young
December 10 2016 It’s been another great week in Weatherfield this week with lots going on. And so, without any further ado, here we go with this week’s Coronation Street update. Tracy’s tapes turned up! Remember all those years when Tracy Barlow was sent upstairs to listen to her tapes? Well, this week we saw said box of tapes on the Barlow kitchen table. Peter was sorting through Tracy’s old tapes and when he found a Bros tape, his eyes light up. This wasn’t because Peter’s a fan of Luke and Matt, no. This was because Peter’s got plans for that Bros tape, plans that involve Leanne, perhaps? At Preston’s Petals, Mary breaks down and confides in Norris that she was raped when she was just 14 – and she has a son. Norris encourages Mary to find her son but Mary’s not so sure. This was a truly wonderful scene between Mary and Norris, really lovely. The Loch Nessa monster returned this week for her sister Cathy’s wedding to Roy. Unfortunately for Roy, the stress of the wedding brings him out in a rash and he starts sleepwalking too – into Nessa’s bedroom. He’s really unhappy with all the talk of wedding and so when Cathy tells Roy that she’s not sure if they should wed because she blames herself for her late husband Alan canoodling with Nessa, a relieved Roy is happy to cancel all their arrangements. Immediately, Roy’s rash clears up. When Cathy realises what’s going on, she’s annoyed at Roy for not talking her out of cancelling their wedding. Roy then decides to honour the promise he’s made to Cathy and the wedding’s back on – and so is Roy’s rash. Worse is to come when Roy suffers a panic attack in the Bistro too. Cathy practises her wedding vows with the help of a Dictaphone which she leaves on Roy’s kitchen table when she goes to spend the night at Yasmeen’s. As the Dictaphone carries on recording, Brian and Tyrone come into Roy’s flat to try to talk him out of the wedding and make him see sense, it’s clearly not something he really wants to go through with. And Roy’s words about how he feels obliged to honour his promise to Cathy are captured on the Dictaphone. Oh dear. More shenanigans this week between Aidan and Maria with Eva unaware of what’s going on. Eva’s in full-on Christmas mode, ordering Eva and Aidan Christmas cards to send to all their friend. Aidan’s heart might be with Maria but when Eva turns up in sexy lingerie for Aidan, the rest of him is somewhere else entirely. Over at the Barlows’ there was a lovely scene between Peter and Daniel as Daniel reveals that his mum Denise left him six years ago; she just upped and walked out. Peter takes Daniel to the cops and they report Denise missing. Better late than never, I suppose. Billy tells the Bishop he’s decided to leave the church and stop being a vicar. The Bishop begs him to reconsider but Billy’s mind is made up. He wants to love and be loved for who he is, not for what the church thinks he should be. Getting bladdered in the Rovers on cheap shots, Billy takes a phone call and he’s offered a new job as a receptionist in a drugs clinic in town. And finally this week, Eileen gets a poison-pen letter pushed through the door at No. 11 and Tyrone doesn’t know what a cooking apple is.
