Coronation Street Weekly Updates
for the internet since 1995.
Things are turning nasty at the Rovers. Shelley spurns Charlie who comes
on to Violet who violates her relationship with Jason. Violet snogs
Charlie by the beer pumps but then does a runner, pleading with him to say
nothing. Meanwhile Shelley plucks up courage to leave the Rovers for
the first time in weeks and takes herself off to a cosmetic surgeon.
Seriously deranged Shelley is convinced that rearranging her features
is the only way to salvage her relationship, change her life, save the whale
and teach the world to sing.
It's Deirdre's 50th birthday and there's champagne and jewellery from
Ken, a recycled card signed `mother' from Blanche and the return of psycho
daughter with baby. Deirdre's convinced Ken has a birthday surprise
for her but as the day draws on it's looking less likely that there's
anything more than a strong cup of tea and she's a little disappointed.
"But you told me not to arrange anything!" he says, which Deirdre did say,
but of course didn't mean. Never mind, they have a cuddle in
their cardis on the sofa instead. Now that Tracy's back she wants
revenge on Steve and won't allow him to see Amy. Steve says he'll get
a court order to gain parental responsibility but needs Roy to testify
in court that he's not the father. When Tracy finds out, she
threatens the Croppers that if they go to court they won't see Amy again.
Hayley agrees to Tracy's demands and they're rewarded with the promise of
looking after baby Amy all day on Sunday.
Convinced he can save the koi carp from dying, Scooter mounts a rescue
operation from the garden of the woman he delivered a skip to last week. (I know, don't get me started on my grammar, I'm not
in the mood). Sarah goes along with him but ends up falling
in the pond just as the neighbour rings the police. No sooner
has she dialled the coppers than sirens can be heard as Sarah and
Scooter drive off with the dying fish in the back of a skip.
After Ashley refuses to fight Mad Dog Maddocks, Marvin pays Ashley a visit
at work and winds him up, in rhyme!, mostly disparaging remarks about
Claire. Incensed Ashley declares the fight back on with
his own little stanza: "He's ruining me life and criticising me wife".
Fred acts as personal trainer and has Ashley getting fit lifting legs of
lamb and pummelling a dead pig as a punch bag.
Liz goes on another date with Bob. He's wearing comfy clothes, has
a couple of bikes in the car and was thinking of a ride in the country.
She's wearing killer heels and a mini-skirt and was thinking much the
same. She was just like Marina from `Last of the Summer Wine'
- all it needed were grown men in a bath on wheels rolling down a hill.
Roy's contraption is up and running in the café, a testament to
the genius of his grandfather. A hack from The Gazette comes to look
at the gizmo. "It's absolutely bonkers in a most amazing way" he tells Roy.
It sort of acts as a conveyor belt, using the kinetic energy from the
opening and closing café door which is connected to the pulley
system which turns a wheel that's connected to the knee bone and then it
throws, in theory, cutlery into the tray. What it does do in practice
is throw spoons all over the floor. Roy's sure the hack from
the Gazette will write a fitting story although Hayley's worried that
the headline might just scream Anorak.
Candice and the twins from the factory audition to be models at Viva Diva.
Candice is sure she'll be picked to be a star but the woman in charge takes
a shine to Warren instead. Flirting with young Baldwin, the woman
tells him her husband owns football club Real Aquila and thinks she
can find an opening for him.
And that's just about that for this week.
