Coronation Street Catch Up: the Bat Watch Newsletter edition

a look back at last week on Canada's Coronation Street...

What a pair!

Turns out that 'Rev' Billy is a former gas station robber and trouble maker while Todd just torched a van belonging to arch-nemesis Aidan. Who could ask for better parents for young Summer?

But wait, it gets better. Rev Billy has retained quasi-lawyer Adam as his legal counsel. What do I think about that? No comment.

Speaking of accelerants, it seems that Phelan's Airbnb dungeon house got burned down and the culprit was none other than Phelan himself. Seems he paid two young numskulls to do the dirty deed while he was on vacation with Eileen, taking a well-deserved break from his murderous misdeeds.

Good news: Rana and Zeedan are getting married. Bad news (for Zeedan): Rana's got a hunka hunka burning love for Kate.

Fiz and Ty are dealing with the fallout from their decision to stay mum about a windfall they got from the crowdfunding site. Seems Beth and others found out and are none too chuffed.

Good news:  Chesney's son, Joseph, is finally talking.  Bad news: he's talking to Daniel. Anyone got a Portuguese-English dictionary? Não. And, Chesney is planning to work himself to death as manager of Dev's expanding fast food empire. Today, Kebabs. Tomorrow, the world (well, the local chippie, anyway).

Jude is furious with Mary for calling the cops on Angie for drink driving. Angie doesn't have a drink problem (per se) but rather post-natal depression.

Robert is out of the Big House and back in the Small Bistro with Michelle as a full partner in business and a name change for the bistro in the works (The Silver Fox? Salt and Pepper? The Grecian Formula?)

And now for a few lines from the week that was:

Michelle to Robert:
"How was your first breakfast as a free man?"
(she put a shiv in the omelette for old time's sake)

Todd to Billy re: his iron-clad defence:
"Who needs prayer when you've got the English legal system?"
(praise M'Lord)

Roy tells Robert he's busy for the evening:
"I have to write the monthly bat watch newsletter"
(sounds like a nocturnal job) 

Zeedan to Rana after Kate leaves
"What did I miss?"
(Just a friendly seven-minute smooch between two female mates)

Well, Weatherfield Watchers, so ends another week. Thanks so much for dropping by and I hope you have a great week. Cheers!

  1. Thank you for the humorous take on some otherwise depressing and heavy topics again this past week. I needed the laugh!
