CORONATION STREET WEEKLY UPDATES |
|
NEW FOR KINDLE... Coronation Street
companion books! January 3, 2015 After attacking Gary last week, Roy is beside himself with guilt and remorse. Gary’s discharged from hospital, covered in bruises and won’t press charges while Anna walks around with a face on shooting evils at Roy every chance she can. Both Gary and Roy are blaming themselves for what happened and although Gary hasn’t taken the matter further, Roy’s still summoned to court. I don’t understand the law so I didn’t understand then why Roy was in court, and why he’s ended up with 100 hours of community service. But, as Roy says, he’ll put his best efforts into every minute of every one of those hours, all 100 of them. Norris discovers how to use Google Streetview on his iPad and zooms in over Coronation Street. He spots a strange white cloud outside of the Barlow house and as the Google pic was taken on the same day that Blanche died, thinks that paranormal activity has been captured (even if Blanche died in Portugal, you’ll recall). It’s more likely the strange white cloud was Deirdre smoking in the ginnel. Anyway, paranormal in mind, Norris pops round to the Barlow’s where Amy gets wind of what Norris is up to. She does her best to scare Norris by pretending she can see nanna Blanche and is receiving messages from her. Messages such as "Norris is a nasty man," and "Norris is a bit daft in the head". But then Amy takes things too far and upsets Faye, telling her she can see dead people including Faye’s real mum. When Katy storms into Barlow’s Buys to tell Tracy off for letting Amy upset Faye in this way, Amy tells her she’s receiving messages from nanna Blanche and she’s got one for Katy too. "Oh yeah?" says Katy. "What’s she saying then?" Amy replies: "She says your skirt’s too short and you wear too much make-up!" Spot on, too. The mother-daughter bonding scenes, odd as the pair of them are, between Tracy and Amy are brilliant to watch. Over at Streetcars, there’s no money left in the account after Steve blows the lot on Amy’s Christmas presents and his new sports car. Liz and Eileen confront Steve and he takes himself upstairs in the pub and breaks down and cries. However, no funds at Streetcars means the staff can’t be paid and Michael gets evicted from his flat as he can’t afford the rent. He moves in with David while Gail is in Milan and helps out with the kids as David struggles without Kylie. He and Eva turn up in the dodgy Dog and Gun pub looking for Kylie and hoping to bring her home. They don’t find Kylie but they do find Callum, who isn’t best pleased that David’s snooping around and threatens him to stay away. Without Kylie, Audrey has to turn down requests from the ladies of the parish wanting their nails done. "We’re in a bit of a hiatus nail-wise," she tells callers. Leanne’s back at the Bistro and needs to check Gavin’s ID so she can put him on the books. But it’s ID that Gavin hasn’t got. Well, he’s got it but it’s not his, if you follow, so he gives Leanne the real Gavin’s ID and asks to be paid in cash as he hasn’t got a bank account, or so he says. Real or not, Steph’s fallen for Gavin-me-laddo and the pair of them have a snog on New Year’s Eve. And finally this week, Sinead designs and creates a wedding basque for Beth to wear at her wedding to Kirk next week. But then Alya goes and steals it and takes it to a wedding fayre, hoping she can interest some buyers. Sinead thinks it’s been stolen when she can’t find it at work, so is relieved when Alya returns it, that is, until Alya points out that one of the buyers spilled red wine all over it. Julie helps Sinead get the stains out with soda water and Sinead unpicks some of the basque bling to redo it all nicely before Aunty Beth sees it for the very first time. "I want to get married on a boat," muses Julie in the Rovers. "What? Like the Isle of Wight ferry?" says Kirk. And that's just about that for this week.
