Greetings and welcome to another week of words from Weatherfield. Without any further ado, here we go with this week’s Corrie weekly update.
This week the action centred around little Oliver’s diagnosis of a mitochondrial disease that’s life-limiting. Leanne takes the news badly, as you’d expect. She storms out of the hospital, twice, and screams that if Oliver dies she’s got nothing left in her life. Not the sort of words that Simon wants to hear and he storms off to live with Peter. Nick’s at his wits end trying to help Leanne and Steve isn’t sure what to do with himself either. Nick and Peter almost come to blows in the street fighting over what’s best for Simon and Leanne and I wanted, oh I wanted so much, for Peter to thump weasel Nick, but alas Peter’s fists stayed balled up in his coat pocket. And then in the Rovers yard later, Nick’s in pieces crying and Peter lays a manly hand on Nick’s shoulder as the camera pans away and the episode ends. It was meant to be poignant, I’m sure, but on our sofa we burst out laughing. So much so that we had to rewind it and watch it again. There was just something so totally and wonderfully camp about the moment that it’s making me smile as I write this and bring it to mind once again. I might have to go and watch it again.
Elsewhere this week, Alina and Emma bond up in the flat after Alina gives Seb short shrift. The two girls do each other’s nails and Alina helps Emma get her hand out of her vase. It’s a long story, a non-story but it was a lovely little touch to cement the girls’ friendship. Stay away, Seb, these two lovelies are getting on just fine without you.
Tyrone and Fiz are in a rut. Looking after the girls takes its toll and Tyrone slobs on the sofa in his vest. Fiz reckons they’re turning to Vera and Jack and so to spice things up they agree on a date night – to which Chesney and Gemma think they’ve been invited. It’s a misunderstanding but Chesney and Gemma get dolled up to the nines and call in for the dinner they think Fiz has promised them. Tyrone and FIz’s date night is now at an end and it becomes a family dinner instead.
Toyah and Imran’s fostering storyline that came from nowhere last week looks set to peter out. Toyah feels she can’t go bringing a child into her life when Leanne is on the brink of losing hers.
At Roy’s Rolls, Roy bonds with Evelyn’s fella Arthur over their love of trains. Arthur is overjoyed to find a fella train enthusiast while Evelyn is less pleased to have a rival for her fella’s attentions.
Over in the Rovers, Jenny returns from France without Johnny, who’s staying on a while. The mysterious, brooding Scott is still living in the pub and is intrigued when he hears that Johnny hasn’t returned. Just what is it between Scott and Johnny that’s so secretive, I wonder?
And that’s just about that for this week.
