Coronation Street Catch Up: the Gobby and Glorious edition

your one-stop update on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...

Nice try, Nick. 

Gail's golden boy thought he could hide the fact that he is married. But Leanne finds out and it all comes crashing down as Elsa (nice lady) promises to exact her revenge on the two-timing Platt (err, be more specific). Leanne requests that the hook of Nick be slung (i.e. get on your Brompton, beat it, etc.)

Carla has a good idea and proposes that Elsa supplant ol' Nicko as partner in Underworld Global Enterprises. Sounds great. Who wouldn't want to be 50% in ladies' knickers?

The Webster fortunes go from bad to worse. Sally's doing yoga in the big house (hint: avoid the downward dog in prison). Gina has an Internet date with dastardly Duncan. Tim gets locked up after failing a breathalyzer test. 

On top of that, Sally's court date is coming up and they can't find a character witness (how about Eccles?) What else can go wrong?

Things are no more cheery over at the Connor's. Ryan discovers the truth about Ali's part in the death of Ronan. Ali snags some drugs to ease to his guilt, flirts with Bethany and winds up in fight with some upstanding members of the local motorcycle gang.

Still more anguish on the Street as Abi takes the fall for Seb's vandalism episode at Tracy's flower shop (suffice to say he did the Nasty on her Nasturtiums). This was prompted by Seb's outrage over Tracy's admission that it was Tracy who sabotaged Michelle's car). Botton line: Abi gets sent down by the judge and will go to prison (hope she likes yoga).

Sinead is eschewing chemo for alternative medicine and keeping it a secret from Daniel. Simon wants to join the navy. Ahoy, mateys.

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

Rita to Maria after the volatile events of the hair stylists awards:

"I blame the Proseco"

(also responsible for Brexit) 

Rita to Audrey re: her performance at the stylist awards:

"You were gobby and glorious"

(but mostly gobby)

Seb to Tracy:
"You're evil"

(any questions?)

Leanne to Nick:

"You haven't got any kids or mistresses?"

(well, one out of two isn't bad)

Well, Weathefield Waifs, so ends another week. Welcome to new followers and thanks for the nice comment. I'm honoured to have a follower of the legendary TVOR and Bluenose Corrie Blogger read my feeble ramblings. But I digress. Have a great week and thanks so much for stopping by.
