FEBRUARY 16
There were three proposals this week and all were
for barmcake Becky. Proposal number one comes from Jason asking if
she'd like to become the new Mrs Grimshaw. She says yes when Jason
asks her. He's dolled up in a white uniform astride a Harley
Davidson, straight out of An Officer and A Gentleman.
Steve finds out and pops the question too in proposal number two.
He's all done up like a dog's dinner straight out of the Streetcars
office. Becky turns Steve down but isn't too sure she's doing the
right thing becoming the new Mrs Grim. When Eileen and Becky bond
over cheap booze and Freshco sausage rolls, Becky knows she can't go
through with becoming part of the family knowing in her heart she
doesn't love Jason as much as she loves Steve. Which is good news
for Steve when he finds out and he proposes again, this time
properly and with a bit of thought. And it's proposal number three
that Becky accepts, to become the new Mrs McDonald. Jason's in tears
and Michelle returns from Ireland with Farrah Fawcett flicks and it
all kicks off in the Rovers when she finds out about Steve and
Becky. She throws a pint all over Becky who tells her if she tries
it again she'll smash her smug little face in. “She's only been here
half a day and she's already turned me pub into a battleground,”
moans Liz to anyone who'll listen, and everyone is.
At the
Websters, Sally hires Graeme to come in and trim her bush but draws
the line when he offers to pollard her cherry. She gives him thirty
quid for services rendered but when Kev finds out he accuses Sally
of wasting the Webster wodge and spends the night at Ashley's in a
strop. When he returns home he and Sally are mid flow in a good
argument just as Sophie brings new boyfriend Ben home for lunch.
Sophie stuns her folks when she announces she's now a Christian
committed to having no sex before marriage. A pained Kev, having no
sex in marriage, looks at a shocked Sal and the pair of them almost
choke on their carbonara.
Tony of the Underworld struggles to
maintain control of the ladies who stitch and bitch. He's the talk
of the factory floor after Carla upped and left him and he's in no
mood to be messed with. So when the factory girls drop their
stitching and take up singing, complete with disco diva moves to Hey
Mickey, You're So Fine, You're So Fine, You Blow my Mind, Hey Mickey
(clap clap) Hey Mickey (clap clap) well Tony Gordon's not best
pleased. He pulls Carla into the office and tells her she has to
sack someone. She's in a real dilemma, who to choose? Tony's not
bothered and won't listen to Julie's wittering, suggesting instead
she writes one of those self-help books that sell by the till in
Borders and reckons she should call it: Julie Carp's Compendium of
Cack. I don't know about you, but I'd buy it if it contains such
Julie gems as: “Do you know there's a song for every occasion,
evening leaving a cake out in the rain?”
Meanwhile,
unemployed Kirk is getting on Julie's nerves. He decides to become a
stuntman and his forward roll on the cobbles is a thing of beauty,
it has to be said, but it leaves Julie cold. She's fed up with him
throwing himself down the stairs and wishes he'd grow up and get a
proper job.
It's Maria's first wedding anniversary and she
tends Liam and baby Paul's grave. There's a dark, sobbing figure
behind her at the graveside, it's Tony Gordon in tears in a big
overcoat and Maria warms towards him. She'll warm towards him so
much in the coming weeks that the pair of them will get quite hot,
have to lie down and take off all their clothes. Just you wait and
see.
Elsewhere, Janice continues studying for her GCSE and
opens the maths book, which always left me cold when I were a lass,
still does in fact. “When you're times-ing decimals, where does the
dot go?” she wonders bemused. I haven't a clue, do you?
And
that's just about that for this week.
Coronation Street
writers this week were Jayne Hollinson, Carmel Morgan, Damon
Rochefort, Mark Wadlow and Julie Jones.
