Frankie bears her soul to anyone who'll listen in the Rovers. Away from
her Essex home and living with feckless husband Danny, she's afloat in a
sea of insecurity, grabbing on to any old bits of flotsam (Liz) and jetsam
(Eileen) to give her some stability after her luxury cruise liner crashed
on the rocks and washed her up in the port of upnorth. Oor-arr
me hearties, she's missing her pieces of eight, posh gym membership, designer
clothes and her kids - in that order.
Betty recovers in hospital after the malarkey at the council last week
but tells Rita she wants nowt more to do with such doings. Deirdre
gets a warning at work after sneaking the old folks onto council property
in the first place.
It's good news for Dev when he gets his test results and finds out he
doesn't have cancer, it's just a benign polyp. There's champagne celebrations
for him and the disgustingly annoying Maya (I have never wanted to put my
foot through the telly before, honest). But it might be bad news for
Sunita who collapses in the corner shop in front of a tremendous tower of
Tunnocks teacakes. And well done to our works canteen for finally getting
them in stock, I had one this afternoon and it were grand. Dev insists
on going to the doc with Sunita who refers her to an endocrinologist which,
apparantly, is someone who knows a lot about hormones although I didn't know
that and neither did Sunita or Dev.
Nick naffs off to Nottingham after Maria tells him she's not prepared
to come second to his mother or his ex-wife. Clearly, working with
Adam Ricketts has rubbed off on the actress who plays Maria as she was particularly
bad in a couple of scenes but I think we can forgive her anything now that
Nick's gone. As you'd expect, Gail simpered a lot and it's left to
Audrey to tell her daughter it's way past time to cut the apron springs.
Some mothers never do.
Janice moves in with Les when she finds out Cilla intends to get Les back
for herself. Janice doesn't trust Les with Cilla and he can't trust
himself either so Janice bans Cilla from the house. Cilla then gets
Les to drive her to an interview she doesn't even have and tries to divert
his attention to.. (look away now if easily offended) ...Cilla's fat thighs
poking out of cheap stocking tops but they're interrupted by a call from
the cab office. It's Janice, telling Les that Chesney's ill at
school and he has to go and pick him up. Cilla wants nowt to do with Chesney
but knows that her son is her passport back into the house and Les' bed and
wallet.
Jack takes the ladies bowls team for a practise and there's some wonderful
comic scenes, not least Hayley's enthusiasm and joy at playing a game she
adores. By no means are the team ready to take on opposition
but Jack arranges their first match against the team from the Fidler's Elbow.
Could be fun.
Elswhere this week Sarah goes back to the work in the cafe but tells Audrey
she's ready for more of a challenge and wants to work in the salon.
And Roy, bless him, buys Hayley an antique atlas and brings it home on the
Grumbleweed-driven bus.
And that's just about that for this week.
