I'm writing this to you now from the safety of my PC shouting
at the top of my voice "NO!! Sally NO!! Don't do it Sally!!".
Yes indeed folks.. it looks like it really could happen - Sally
and Kevin back together again? It's the girls' nativity play at
school and although Kevin promises Sally and the girls he'll be
there, he has to miss out when Natalie takes ill (although I reckon
it was just a ploy to keep Kevin at home?). He tries to apologise
to Sally but it's the girls he really has to apologise to, and
they forgive him and give him a special performance of the nativity
show in the Webster's front room. With the girls crooning Christmas
Carols, Kevin comes over all sentimental like and tells Sally
he wants to move back, to be with the girls. She doesn't know
what to believe, and wonders if he really wants HER back at all
but he says he does, and tells her that he'll leave Natalie. So,
off he trots to Natalie's house and tells her it's all over, and
that he's going back to Sally. Natalie is distraught, but just
as Kevin is leaving, she turns the knife and tells him about Sally
and Chris! Oohh! Kevin storms off to confront Chris and they end
up fighting in the Street after Chris admits to sleeping with
Sally, and Des tries his best to stop any blood spilling on the
cobbles. Kevin goes back to see Sally and she tells him that she's
prepared to make a go of their relationship and that she does
want him back, but he tells her he knows about Chris, calls her
a sanctimonious lying bitch and walks out again.
The second major storyline this week has been the Mallets and
Zoe. Busy packing the van for their trip to Newcastle, Gary doesn't
notice Zoe sneak into their house and she whips baby Katie away
before he can say "ha'way the lads". She takes the baby
to Fred Eliott's house where Ashley tries to protect her against
the Mallets when they try to get Katie back. Zoe has told Ashley
everything about the sale of her baby and Ashley takes Zoe's side
and does his best to help her. While Judy and Gary are frantic
with worry, Ashley drives Zoe to a "friend" and drops
her in a tree lined street. But as soon as Ashley's van pulls
away, Zoe walks on with the baby until she finds Liam, the baby's
father, living in a squat and tells him about his baby.
Audrey, busy enjoying herself a bit too much in the salon,
decides she'd like to buy the place from Fiona. She calls Fiona
at home to discuss her plans but luckily Fiona's back on the Street
now with no intention of selling out to Audrey. She does agree
to Audrey helping out in the salon as she'll need extra help when
her baby comes along.
Vera goes on her date, under the name "Roxie L'Amour"
to meet her tall, dark, handsome Italian type. Alec of couse has
fixed her up with Jack and there's a great scene when the two
of them meet in the hotel restaurant, and Vera hides under the
tablecloth when she sees Jack walk in. When they both find out
what's going on, Vera is so incensed that Jack is working for
Alec as an escort that she pours ice cubes down his trousers.
After this, the two of them communicate via Samantha in the Rovers.
After last week, when Des was jumped on by Sam's ex, and Les
Battersby helped Des out of the fight, Les now feels that Des
owes him something for his assistance. In the Rovers, Des is expected
to buy Les' drinks for him, and Les wants to go nightclubbing
with Des and Samantha but Des refuses. They both go back to Des'
house where Les is most pleased to find Samantha wearing her dressing
gown. As Samantha goes upstairs to get dressed, Les insinuates
he'd quite like an em... you know.. wife swapping thing for the
evening but Des absolutely refuses and sends Les home.
The girls at Underworld are having their Christmas lunch, which
isn't a lunch at all, just as many drinks as possible in as short
a space of time as possible. (A bit like my Christmas lunch this
coming Friday!) Anyway, they get quite merry and are in the Rovers
when Angie and Mike Baldwin walk in. Ida Clough sidles up to Mike
"I bet you've broken some hearts in your time Mike eh?"
she croons. "Usually when I gave them their P45's" replies
Mike. The girls go on from the Rovers to the Warwick Hotel to
be served by that lovely barmaid, Liz McDonald. There's a band
playing in the hotel and Ida recognises the lead singer as an
old flame of hers from many years ago, but he snubs her and tries
to chat up Janice Battersby instead. Anyway, Les comes in at this
point when the singer (Jump Jackson of Jump Jackson and the Jive
Five) and Janice are having a Christmas kiss (aka snog) and throws
a punch at Mr Jump, misses him, and KO's the bar manager. The
manager knows the girls are friends of Liz's and promptly sacks
her on the spot. Ida gets revenge when Mr Jump's wig comes off
in Les' hand and she makes Jump say "please" for the
return of his hair piece.
