After the romance of last week's wedding, things have quickly
turned sour for Fred and Maureen. Maureen can't forgive Fred for
forcing her to live without her mother, and now Maude tells her
daughter that she is going to move into a nursing home. In a tearful
scene, Maureen asks why Maude couldn't have moved out of her life
years ago, when she was still young enough to do something with
her life. Instead, she's landed with Fred and she's not happy.
Bill Webster, hurt that Maureen has committed herself to a life
without him, decides to move back to Germany before the end of
the week, and it looks as if next week will see Maureen leave
with him, leaving both Fred and Maude on their own to cope without
her. Poor Maureen, poor Maude, poor Fred, I say, poor Fred. Fred
had a great line this week, after playing 'Cluedo' with Maureen
and Maude, he takes a brandy to Maude who is sitting in the conversatory.
He pauses before he enters and wonders aloud how he'd best get
rid of the old woman. "Fred Eliot, in the conservatory, with
snake venom".
Jim tells Fiona that he isn't the father of her child after
all, and shows her the letter from the snipping clinic proving
that he is infertile. Fiona and Alan speed off to Mauritius for
a three week honeymoon before they get married and who can blame
them from wanting to get away from such a dreadful storyline?
Sally is interviewed by the police for causing damage to Natalie's
house after she flooded the bathroom last week. Sally manages
to persuade the police to think about dropping charges against
her, but Natalie wants blood! Kevin tries to talk to Natalie saying
that Sally can't afford to pay for the damage and it would be
Kevin who would end up paying in the end, but Natalie just wants
Sally to pay for the damage she caused. Kevin tells Sally that
Natalie would accept an apology, but Sally laughs this off. In
the Rovers, Bill gives Natalie a piece of his mind and blames
her for ruining Sally's life. Kevin has found out that Chris is
sleeping on the sofa in Sally's house and isn't best pleased that
another bloke is staking claim to his old territory.
Is Percy losing his marbles? Emily thinks Percy has Alzheimers
disease when he starts rambling on about someone stealing pennies
from his jar, eating his fairy cakes and changing the colour on
the TV so that Trevor McDonald turns blue. Or is someone breaking
into the house and stealing things... and if so... who can it
be? (My guess is that it's the Battersby's son who has escaped
from high security juvenile borstal or something).
Don Brennan is back! He is transferred to Weatherfield General
with pancreatic cancer and his days are numbered. Martin goes
to visit him and Don asks that he brings Alma to see him so that
he can apologise to her before he dies. Reluctant at first, Alma
does visit Don and he apologises.... but I suspect he's going
to cause a bit more trouble round t'streets before he pops his
clogs.
Ken takes a day's work as a supply teacher but gives it up
in order to help out at the Kabin with Emily when Mavis and Rita
pop over to the lakes to their "bide a wee" guest house
in Cartmel. The owner's wife questions Rita about her relationship
with Mavis, wondering if they're more than just business partners,
and if they share a' special' kind of relationship, but Rita soon
puts the misguided woman right! Mavis is in her element,pulling
up the leeks and hoeing the muck and doing all the country things
she loves so much while Rita is happy to have a few more cups
of tea for breakfast and a run out in the car. Mavis questions
Rita's commitment to their business venture and they end up arguing,
with Rita storming off saying that as far as she's concerned,
the deal is off and drives back to Weatherfield on her own.
And just in case you haven't yet heard... Ray Langton is returning

now lives in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is joining Jack, Vera, Maxine
and Fiona who are filming the Christmas video there right now,
and he will appear in the video and return to join the show next
year.
