Fred tells Ashley that now he's won Claire he needs to mek a grand gesture,
I say, show her how he feels and the two of them go out on a date. But
it's when Claire mentions Maxine's name that Ashley's face clouds over
and he feels he's being disloyal to her memory. From then on,
it's pretty much plain sailing and they all play happy families in a soapy
sort of style.
Fred's hoping to happy up the family even more when he proposes to Penny,
I say, he asks her to marry him, I say he pledges his troth, I say, get
on with th'update afore I throttle thee. She needs time to think,
which is the standard response to an Elliot proposal and one he should be
used to. While he sweats it out, Penny gets sweaty with Mike after a kiss
leads to dressing gowns over coffee the next morning in his flat at the quays.
Mike makes it clear he's not looking for commitment so what's Mrs King
to do * will it be faithful Fred or monkeying around with Mike?
Now then, the trouble with missing an episode as I did this week is that
I still don't know why Karen McDonald has come back from honeymoon with
hair extensions the length of Rosamund Street. But the honeymoon's
clearly over when Tracy starts making demands on Steve to take responsibility
for baby Amy. And Karen's like "talk to the hand 'cos the face
can't hear you through all this hair".
Nick has his interview at Penny King's factory and Mike's on the interview
panel. There's surprise all round but Mike realises he doesn't want
to lose Nick and offers him a pay rise and more responsibility. All
this power goes to Nick's head. He tells the girls they can't take
breaks for smoking so Janice has a quick one in the stock cupboard instead.
Harry locks her in, she throws the ciggie on the floor and the place bursts
into flames. Pants on fire! Ner-ner-ner-ner, firemen, flames,
smoke inhalation, Nick rushes back to save his ex-mother in law and becomes
a hero in a hospital bed while Gail simpers at his bedside.
Nick and Maria have split up due to Gail's interfering although Audrey sees
Maria's point of view and sneaks her into t'hospital where she weeps all
over him. As Mike arrives to see his factory up in flames,
he ponders if it's worth starting all over again.
Sally sells her tickets for Rosie's role in the school production of
Grease and warms to Ken when he tells her he's writing a review for the
Gazette. Kev has a word with his missus about being a pushy mum and
tells her not to live her life through her daughter. And if you haven't
seen this scene yet, when you watch it - just look how mucky Sal and Kev's
kitchen is.
And that's just about that for this week, more or less.
