Needing new members for his bowls team Jack signs up Deirdre and Liz who
plays bowls in her fishnets (good for catching crabs) before falling over
on the green. Hayley's off the team when her past catches up with
her. She's still registered as Harold Patterson in the East Lancs Semi Pro
Bowling Guild and therefore can't play in the final against the Slaughterman's
Arms. Jack needs a new team member and when no one else offers to
play, Deirdre jokes that Jack should drag up in a frock if the team want
to win. Hayley looks decidely uncomfortable when Jack says he'll do
it.
When Tracy's at Ciaran's flat with the baby, she pockets the fifty grand
cash and puts the money, for a laugh, in the side pockets of Amy's
pram before she waltzes out and leaves him to change nappies. Ciaran's beside
himself with worry at losing the money and dumps the baby with Deirdre while
he goes looking for Tracy, sure that she's nicked his cash. Deirdre's got
bowls practise so leaves the baby with Roy who, of course, finds the cash
in the pram and spends all week fretting, as he would. He's sure Ciaran and
Tracy are up to no good and warns Penny King that Ciaran shouldn't be trusted
in business.
Leanne's interviewed by Fred Scuttle - he's all jam-jar bottoms and wandering
hands - for a job as a nightclub barmaid. Jamie wades in when the bloke,
real name Bob, gets too friendly with Leanne and the pair of them end up
losing their jobs there. Frankie's not keen on Leanne hanging around son
Jamie and the two of them trade insults all week.
Katy gets disappointing A level results but can't bring herself to tell
Tommy, especially when he gives her a two hundred quid reward for passing
her exams.
Karl's back on the scene as he turns up to see Todd, who's starting to
look like the bloke from the Etch-a-Sketch box.
Karen's not happy when her dad turns up on the doorstep with news that
her mother's really ill and close to dying. Steve can't understand
why Karen won't give her dad the time of day but it all comes out later when
a tearful Karen explains her dad was a religious bully and there's never
been any love lost between them, she moved out after he beat her to a pulp.
Karen's in bits telling all this to Steve and as her past comes spilling
out, there's so much emotion going on in her face that her eyebrows could
have been given a storyline of their own.
And was it a first? I rather think it might have been - the viewer's first
look in the gents loos at the Rovers.
And that's just about that for this week.
