Shelley tells Violet about her night of regret with Charlie the builder after hours in the bar of the Rovers Return. Violet plays to her strengths and emotes silently with nice hair. Shelley tells Tracy, as we all hoped she would, and Tracy doesn’t want to believe her but of course knows full well just what Charlie’s like. It was billed as Corrie’s biggest cat-fight but Tracy’s slap across Shelley’s face came way down on my list of best punch-ups on the cobbles. That was surely when Sally hit Nastily Horrid across the chops when she found out she’d been sleeping with Kev the mechanic husband. Bev wants to know if it’s true that her daughter has slept with Stubbs the builder so Shelley lies in the ladies and says no, she just told Tracy she’d slept with Charlie because she hates her so much. As you knew she would be, Tracy’s in the loo hiding behind the door and overhears every word. It all got a bit confusing with Tracy mouthing off in the Rovers about who slept with who and who lied to who and then she tells Charlie she wants to move into number six with him when he says he’s doing it up to sell on. Somehow the two things were connected which is probably more than my fingers are to my brain today. Shelley rides off in the back of a taxi like the Queen of Sheba waving goodbye to the corner shop, the pub, the bully-boy builder but if tabloid reports are true, then she’ll be back with the builder’s baby inside her this summer for the wedding of Sir Fred and Lady Bev.
Liz is in Vernon’s bad books when his van goes missing after she doesn’t lock it up. It’s got all his favourite records inside it, they’ve all been nicked too and he’s not best pleased. But is he telling the truth? Steve’s started noticing just how feckless Vernon is and tells him he thinks his mum’s fella’s so lazy, he’d even get Liz to hold a grudge for him. I love lines like that, me, don’t you?
Adam and Jo the factory girl start seeing each other and Blanche is stunned into silence (but not for too long) when Jo strolls downstairs the morning after the night of passion with Adam Barlow. Ken and Deirdre offer the girl a hot cuppa but it’s her clothes and her pants from the dining room floor that she’s after, not breakfast.
It’s Ashley’s day in family court and he agrees to Matt Ramsden having access to Josh. “He can have two hours every mumf” yells Ashley to the judge while going red in the face and all angry-like. When Matt turns up for his allocated spot with Josh, Clare goes into labour and the ambulance arrives after the new baby boy does. Which means that Matt Ramsden the too-tall doctor put the baby into the first Mrs Peacock and pulled the baby out of the second. Ashley thanks Matt for his help but can’t help feeling frustrated and angry by the doctor who roared onto the street in his SUV and parked it behind Maxine’s seat (which is perhaps how they all got into this trouble in the first place).
As “Tainted Love” plays in the background at the Rovers, Danny and Frankie share a moment of tenderness on what would have been their 20th wedding anniversary. Frankie’s back from Spain now and losing patience with Nathan who walks in and then storms out when he finds Danny at home with Frankie poring over her photos of son Warren in Spain.
And Diggory the fat baker this week shut up shop and prepared to move on.
And that’s just about that for this week.
