Sally starts to get suspicious about Natalie but when she asks Bill about it, he denies there's anything going on. However, when she walks into the Rovers to find Kevin and Natalie holding hands, she's even more convinced that Kevin is up to no good. Kevin tells Sally he has to go to Oldham on a break-down but Chris tells Sally that the breakdown was only a few streets away. Sally knows that Kev was lying to her, and suspects he's with Natalie. She zooms off in her car to Natalie's house, only to find Kevin and Natalie looking at her out of the bedroom window, Kevin with no shirt on too!
As he runs down the stairs fastening up his trousers, Sally brays on the front door, screaming and crying. Natalie lets Sally into the house, and Sally punches and hits Kevin as hard as she can, screaming at him all the time. She turns and runs out of the house, without giving Kevin a chance to say anything and drives back to Coronation Street. (I was hoping, at this point, when she left Natalie's house that she'd give Natalie a thump, for the sake of the nation, round her ear hole too, but sadly, she didn't). Kevin follows Sally back to their house on the Street where he tries to defend his actions, blaming it all on Sally "You were away. I missed you. I wanted a wife" and then the classic "Well, other men do it!". She finally tells Kev to leave, she doesn't want him anymore, and after a great episode with excellent acting from Sally, she finally broke down in tears (and so did I).
Bill tells Kev he must apologise to Sally but Kevin thinks it's up to Sally to save their marriage (huh!). Sally bundles the girls into the car and drives off to her mum's in Scarborough, stopping at Natalie's house en-route so that Kevin can say goodbye to his children. Despite Natalie trying to calm Kevin down with talk of divorce, Kevin realises the magnitude of what he's done, and he drives off to Scarborough after Sally.

Meanwhile, elsewhere on the Street, things are a little quieter. In the Rovers, Jack isn't amused when Alec decides to buy a shelf for the bar, without discussing the purchase with himself and Vera. Jack decides all decisions should be made in formal minuted meetings and is dead against buying the bar shelf. Unfortunately for Jack, Vera sides with Alec, but Jack tells Vera they should watch their backs and not let Alec make all the decisions around the place. Alec presents both Rita and Vera with a peace lilly (and the word he was looking for was spathiphyllum wallisii) to say sorry to both Rita for upsetting her over the purchase of the Rovers, and to Vera for upsetting things at the Rovers (although Rita is less than impressed with a £2.50 pot plant).

Steve McDonald comes into the salon for a hair cut and just as Fiona starts to wash his hair, in walks Alan who gets all upset about it. Fiona has a word with Jim (keep your eye on these two, rumour has it they are about to have an affair) and asks Jim to tell Steve to keep away from her. Steve is sure that he has a future with Fiona until Jim passes on Fiona's message. Des tells Angie that he wants Chris to move out, he feels the house isn't big enough for three adults but really, we know that he wants Angie to himself. Angie tells him that if Chris moves out, she'll move out so Des relents and lets them both stay. He keeps having digs at Chris about his time in Africa, wondering if his stories are true, but Angie defends Chris.

Zoe the young slapper turns up at Gary and Judy's door with all her wordly belongings strapped to her back. Judy takes pity on her and invites her in to stay, feeds her up for a few days and tells Gary she wants to adopt Zoe's baby. Gary thinks the idea is ludicrous (and so do I) and finally gets Zoe to leave after fixing up an appointment for her with the social services. He tells Zoe to leave a note for Judy saying thankyou and goodbye, and acts all innocent like when Judy finds the note, pretending that he didn't know Zoe was going to leave.

Maud isn't best pleased that Maureen has been selling Fred Eliot's meat pies in the corner shop, even though they all got sold. Fred makes a date with Maureen but fails to turn up after he falls and hurts himself after a rather silly game of golf in which he partnered young Ashley to compete against Mike Baldwin and Curly. Maureen thinks she's been stood up but she doesn't know that poor Fred is still lying in a ditch on a golf course in the middle of nowhere. Let's hope he's out of there for next week's update!
