There's been shagging and drinking this week at the Ramsden's
while Charli and Matt are still away ski-ing. Candice is like,
well, Todd I don't want to go out with you any more as you're
so boring you won't stay in the Ramsden's house with me and I
have the keys? And Todd is like, so? And Jason is like, whoa Candice,
so you've finished with me brother? And Candice is like, yeah,
so? And Jason is like, in there straight away and Todd is like,
just so hurt, you know when he finds out? And he tells Maria what's
happened and she's like oh no? And Maria tells Tyrone and he's
like thumping Todd in the face? And Fiz finds out Ty's gone and
stuck up for his ex and she's just like outta there, right? And
Sarah's like feeling sorry for her mate 'cos she's dumped Todd
and Jason won't talk to her now he's done the deed. Candice is
like "we're an item" and Todd's just like "no way"?
But Sarah's, like, well she's got this crush on Todd anyway, so
yeah ....and the only one grown up enough to know what they're
doing is Eileen, who tells Todd to move back into the house after
Sally finds him sleeping rough on the hardware floor shop. Eileen
wants her boys back around her, friends again, but Todd's still
in tears over Candice and it's going to be a struggle to make
up with his brother again. Meanwhile at the Platt's, Gail gives
Candice a good ticking off for doing what she did, being under-age
and all. "But I didn't!" says Candice. "I haven't
and I wouldn't". But oh yes, she did, she has and she would.
There's more shagging this week (they're all at it, trust me)
at Vik's place after he dumps Bobbi in front of all their friends
and invites Hazel round the next day. Dev offers Vik his wise
words of wisdom, telling Vik he shouldn't have dumped Bobbi at
the birthday part-ay she'd arranged for him as a surprise. But
Vik's unrepentent, he's just choc full of nuts about Hazel, who
doesn't half straighten out his curlywurly.
Les is even at it with a new girlfriend called Sharon. Janice
is best pleased for him, happy he's got someone new in his life
although Les would prefer to think he's making her jealous. And
Sharon? Well, she seems harmless enough, common and dowdy, with
the sort of blonde hair she's bought on the cheap.
If you needed to know how common Karen was and you weren't
yet quite sure, there's a wonderful scene in the Kabin this week
with Karen in her nightie buying the paper and some fags. There's
an air of mystery in the Kabin as Norris tries to figure out how
old Rita is, it's her birthday this week. And for a birthday treat,
she sets off for a drive in the country with Blanche, Emily and
Betty - it's like David Lynch does Last of the Summer Wine. Out
in the woods, lost because of Blanche's map reading, our four
grannies are held at gunpoint by a young lad who's just robbed
a post office. Emily goes into shock, reminded of the importance
of Earnest being shot and not even a stiff brandy later in the
Rovers can help her calm down. I did miss a bit, I have to admit,
because I left the room for a few minutes (whaddya mean how dare
I?) and when I came back the police had arrived and the grannies
were taken to the station for questioning. My guess is the police
caught the young lad after the gung-ho grannies had a go at him
but he could have been taken off by aliens, I really can't say.
How can I be sure, in a world that's constantly changing? (Whoops,
time to change the CD methinks).
And finally this week, Ken goes back to teaching and Deirdre
sends him off to school with a new satchel and a clean hanky.
She's nervous about his first day at school and can't wait to
hear all about it when he returns, but Ken collapses, knackered,
onto the sofa and falls promptly asleep.
And that's just about that for this week.
