NOVEMBER 19 2012
Michelle’s back from Ireland and Steve’s got a smile on
his face. Mind you, it doesn’t last long after he finds out
Michelle and Rob are spending the night in Sheffield together
in an hotel. He storms right in there with Eva in tow, who’s
suddenly forgotten that she and Rob split up some months ago
and she’s come over all jealous in a very strange attempt to
string a plot together. Steve and Eva – let’s call them Steva
as it saves me typing both names – turn up at th’otel to find
Rob getting nekkid in his room with the hotel waitress. Eva
knees him where it hurts while Steve looks on and has to
apologise to Michelle when she asks him what the flippineck
he’s doing at th’otel anyroad. Long story cut short – Steve
and Michelle are back together, Rob’s got sore bits and Eva’s
determined to get a fella to take her mind off Rob. And that’s
when she sets her cap at Nick, again.
Yes, Nick. Nicky boy Tilsley. Nicky, Nicky, Nicky. Nack.
Nack. Nack. Eva, Eva, Eva, wants him Back, Back, Back. So she
cajoles him into proposing to Leanne who flies off th’andle
and gives Nick what for. Eva’s there to pick up the pieces of
poor broken Nick while he wonders what he said wrong and
whether Leanne still loves Peter Barlow. That’s Leanne’s
ex-husband Peter Barlow, not to be confused with any other
Peter of the parish, because her decree absolute came through
this week and it’s fair upset her somewhat so she’s clearly
not over him yet.
Meanwhile, up in the fluffy love-heart-shaped pink cloud
that is the flat above the hair salon, things get heated and
curly in Maria’s flat as Kirk tries to make sense of his
sister’s new beau. He asks Marcus: "Did you feel yourself
slipping away or did you find it happening when you weren’t
looking?" Kirk’s as confused as the rest of us are as Maria
and Marcus step out as an item, a couple, a pair. Will it all
end in tears? Ooh, I do hope so.
Elsewhere, Tyrone takes little Ruby to the Super Tykes
playgroup only for Kirsty to come down on him like a ton of
bricks after she finds out he’s the only dad there amongst all
those young mums.
Gail ends up ironing Lewis’ underpants along with his
shirts when she offers her house up to do his laundry. But
why? What’s going on? Who knows? Gail is being as nice as she
can be to Lewis to make up for the fact she was so horrible to
him with Gloria in testing his love for Audrey. And Lewis?
Well, Lewis is making the most of it all, lapping up the
attention from gormless Gail and calling her a diamond.
"You’re the Koh-i-Noor of Coronation Street" he tells her
while plotting his revenge. That it will involve freshly
ironed underpants… well, we can only hope.
Finally this week, Tina’s pregnant with Izzy and Gary’s
baby. That’s nine months of hell we’re all going through,
then. Let’s be strong, Corrie fans, we can get through this,
we can. Just breathe, two, three, four…
