Corrie weekly updates from 1995 Coronation Street Books by Glenda Young June 8 2019 Corrie weekly updates from 1995
Glenda Young, Author of Historical Novels with Headline
This was the week when Corrie stalwart Norris Cole left the street. The actor Malcolm Hebdeb who plays Norris has been unwell and was away from the show for some months. He returned earlier this year but we always knew his return was temporary and this week Norris left the cobbles in the back of a taxi with Freda at his side. He’s sold No. 3 and we’ll see the new Bailey family arrive next week. Mary gave him a send-off, singing Cliff Richard’s ‘Miss You Nights’ as the cab drove Norris away. Gary Windass is proving to be the villain of the hour after we found out last week that he was the one who ruined the roof at Underworld. Carla’s been taken to Carlisle to get the psychiatric help she needs and both Peter and Simon go with her. As Gary has deleted his confession about the roof from Sarah’s phone, Nick’s still suspect number one. But I’m confused about this whole business of Nick nicking his gran’s cash and David’s now sold the barber shop to Audrey, who’s put Maria in charge. David and Nick are up in court the episode after Audrey says she’s going to retract her statement saying that her grandsons stole her cash. As I said, I’m confused. And don’t even get me started on Gary, the passports and Rick. Does anyone have a flowchart they can send? Gemma’s not well, she’s got terrible morning (and afternoon and evening) sickness as her pregnancy begins. When she faints in the kebab shop, Chesney takes her to the hospital where she’s given an ultrasound and some shock news. She’s expecting four babies –it’s quads! Now it’s Chesney’s turn to faint. Dev goes off to India and takes the kids with him. Actor Jimmi Harkishin who plays Dev is taking a three month break from the show, and while Dev’s away he leaves Evelyn in charge at the shop. Now… this could be fun. And that’s just about that for this week. This week’s writers were Martin Allen and Jayne Hollinson (Monday); Simon Crowther and Ella Greenhill (Wednesday), Martin Allen and Julie Jones (Friday).
