Corrie weekly updates from 1995 Coronation Street Books by Glenda Young March 2 2019
Over at the factory, Gary tells Carla she needs a new roof over Underworld after Peter’s boat fire did serious damage. Problem is, Carla’s skint. She asks Gary to do what he can on a budget. Gary tells her that it won’t be fixed properly, not as it should. Added to Carla’s woes this week is the fact that Roy chucks her out, unable to deal with her lies to the police and to everyone on the street about who caused the boat fire. I’m on Roy’s side on this one, it’s completely in his nature to take the moral high ground – and rightly so. Daniel however, has no qualms in cheating. He is his father’s son. Too busy with baby Bertie and ill wife Sinead, Daniel’s MA work suffers and he ropes in both Brian and his dad to help. Brian even writes the conclusion of Daniel’s essay and Daniel submits it as his own. Ken isn’t best pleased to hear of Brian helping his son and Ken’s put out that he wasn’t asked first. Elsewhere this week, unable to take being called a liar for stealing the money she’d raised to throw Sally a party, Gina decides to leave Weatherfield. No-one will believe that she didn’t steal the money. Just as she’s ready to go, Kev returns from his holiday with Jack and tells all and sundry that he was the one who took the money. But Sally is still far from wanting to reconcile with her sister. Gina decides to stay on the street but has nowhere to live after Beth threw her out and it’s Kevin who takes her in. Upstairs at Rita’s, she’s got both Gemma and Paul living with her but it’s proving too much. Paul’s far too messy and Rita’s finding it hard cleaning up after him all the time. She has a quiet word with Gemma who tells Paul he’s going to have to move out. He says there might be a bail hostel opening in Weatherfield soon where he can find a place. The bail hostel divides Weatherfield, however. Some of the residents are in fear of the kind of ex-con who might end up living there while others welcome it. Claudia’s definitely on the side of those who don’t want the bail hostel on their doorstep and after being gazumped on a house in Victoria Street, she buys a flat on the Red Bank development instead. Meanwhile, Steve and Amy put an offer in on a house in Victoria Street as they look to the future with Amy and her baby. Problem is, Amy’s had an abortion although Tracy assumes she’s had a miscarriage and Amy is only too happy to let her mum think this, for a while. It’s Bethany who forces Amy to tell Tracy the truth and she’s devastated, fighting in the street with Tyler’s mum Vicky too.
