After being turfed out by Janice, Les spends the night in the
outside toilet. Charlie comes to his rescue and gives him a camper
van to live in, which ends up parked in the street outside of
Janice's house - so she's not best pleased. Although he has a
chemical toilet, he has no running water so pops into the cafe
for a quick wash and shave in the public restroom. This upsets
Roy's hygiene sensibilities so much he has to go in there and
clean up after Les, blowing into his marigolds before snapping
them on. Les tries to wash his laundry in the Rover's toilet,
but Betty turfs him out and then Gary and Judy give him short
shrift when he asks if they can take care of his laundry instead.
He strings a TV aerial from the van to the drainpipe of his house
only to have his connection severed when someone skates along
the pavement and cuts his connection off. And since when.. when..
have we ever seen someone skating along Coronation Street...?
Kevin is pressing Sally to sell her mother's house and invest
the money by buying Natalie's share of the garage. Sally tells
Kevin she's still grieving and dithers about whether she wants
Natalie to have her mother's money or not. Take the money and
run, Sally, run. Sally and Greg do a bit of flirting in the Rovers
while Greg is still bonking around with Maxine... sheesh, men.
Samantha leaves in a taxi, telling Des she's going to have
the abortion and off she goes. Des drives to the clinic he thinks
she'll be at but the staff there aren't allowed to give out any
details about their patients and Des is thrown out onto the street
after demanding to see Samantha. Meanwhile, Judy Mallett spots
Samantha in a clothes store buying jeans at the same time as Samantha
is supposedly having her abortion. She tells Des she's seen Sam
in town. Des confronts Sam when she arrives back on the Street
and she admits that she's not pregnant and never was. "You're
evil you are, you're mad, poison, and you've got an orange face,"
he tells her. (I made that bit up about the orange face). When
Natalie confronts Samantha, Sam asks if she'll tell everyone that
she's had a miscarriage, and Nat, for some reason, agrees to this.
Anyway, later, Sam fakes a phone call from Leeds hospital saying
that Natalie's son Tony has been taken into intensive care after
a road traffic accident. In tears, Natalie and Alec rush to the
hospital only to find that Tony hasn't been admitted to any hospital
in the area. Natalie realises she's been the victim of a prank
and assumes that Sam is behind it all, but has no proof. While
Natalie is at the hospital, Samantha goes to Nat's house and kidnaps
her cat, Tiger, which she takes back to Curly's house. Uh-oh,
poor little cat is gonna suffer. Samantha tells Betty and then
Natalie that she knows who made the hoax phone call from the hospital
- Sally! Natalie confronts Kevin who, in his usual sensitive,
new man sort of way, thinks.. um, yes, Sally has been acting rather
strangely lately and yes, she could have made the call... quickly
forgetting that his wife has just lost her mother and is going
through the most difficult grief she'll ever know and is bloody
well bound to acting rather strangely at the moment.. sheesh,
men.
Liz takes Jim to the Rovers in his wheelchair but he comes
over all sorry for himself when Maude comes in for a drink and
asks him "How're you getting on with your chair?". He
spits a bit at Maude and Liz wheels him home again after telling
him off for being so rude to Maude.
Jack and Vera have gone off to Wales in a caravan with Trish
and the kids, leaving Alec running the Rovers in his usual management
style of organised chaos.
Ashley tells Maxine that Zoe is coming home later this week.
In the support group that Zoe attends, Judy's boss is also there,
saying he's turned to drink since he slept with his employee when
she asked for a loan for £2,000. Zoe isn't really listening
at first to the confessional, but she soon realises it's Judy
the guy is talking about and knows that Gary can't be the father
of Judy's baby.
Leanne and Nick go to the police and report what they know
about Darren Whateley harassing Leanne. However, they fail to
tell all they know, leaving out a couple of important things,
like the fact they wrote to him in prison and baited him with
a picture and letters from Leanne.
Anyway, that's just about that for this week.
Glenda ;-)
