Coronation Street Catch Up: the well-placed chiffon and two pomegranates edition

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


Looks like trouble in seniors' paradise.

Ken smuggles Eccles (why doesn't that dog have her own show?) into Still Waters only to have the cute canine leave her... er... "signature" on the carpet. Officious Charles gets wise to the serious breach of rules and levies a hefty fine on Ken for carpet cleaning. Ouch.

Elsewhere, Ken's better half (I'm talking about Claudia, not Norris, BTW) is once again helping Evelyn get dolled up for a another shot at a date with the elusive Arthur. This time all goes well and it looks like there might be a budding romance in the future.

Gemma is clearly struggling as she tries to cope with her four babies. Her Mom, Bernie, arrives to try to help but Gemma is in denial. Still, Bernie manages to get Gemma to the doctor for a consult. Chesney is in the dark as Gemma doesn't want to tell him about her postpartum depression.

David is being very David these days. Shona sends word that she wants a divorce and Davey boy relapses into his patented destruct mode (i.e. tall cans of lager, insults and random hookups). He and Alina have a horizontal tango only to be interrupted - in flagrante sofa - by Seb who is furious.

Emma is not happy about Seb and suspects he still has feelings for Alina.

Ghastly Geoff plans to accompany Yasmeen to Spain for Zeedan's wedding (he isn't actually getting married. it was just a ruse set up by Alya to try to get Yasmeen out of Geoff's clutches). Looks like it didn't work.

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

Nick to Shona's nurse re: Clayton:

"You do know he tried to kill Shona"

(let's not get hung up on details)

Mary explains how she once posed nude for an art class:
"Some well placed chiffon and two pomegranates"

(try getting that image out of your head)

Bernie comes up with a lie to tell Ches about Gemma's doctor appointment:
"I just told him your nipples were sore"

(probably too much information)

David tells Brian what he thinks of him:
"You're a middle-aged, busy body who runs the local newsagent"

(yes, but you could say that in a nice way)

David to Brian again:
"The closest you'll come to looking like a film star is Hagrid "

(well, that's better than Voldemort)

Evelyn to Claudia:
"Your shoes are a little tarty"

(so... not Crocs, I'm guessing)

***

Well, colleagues of confinement, so ends another week (of three episodes).  Intrigue continues at Still Waters as King Charles throws his weight around. David seems to be headed into another one of those patented periods of self destruction (ho hum). Oh well, plus ça change... 

Thanks for stopping by and so nice to have you visit. No need to wash your hands when you leave (but better do it anyway). Stay well and have a safe and healthy week!
