your one stop update on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...
Happy New Year?
Not so much for Carla, Lisa, Shona, Kev and especially, Todd.
Over at Carla and Lisa's place, it looks like Carla has given up on her relationship with Lisa. Looks like she has also given up on her investigation into Becky's suspicious activities. Carla has one last visit with Costello (who's still in hospital and barely conscious) and elicits a clue from him ("Ravensgill"). However, a nurse advises Carla that Costello's random words probably don't mean anything and are simply par for the course for someone in his condition.
Carla subsequently gives up on her quest to discover the truth about Becky much to the dismay of Kit who is determined to continue the investigation. Carla decides to take off to sunnier climes and heads for the airport. Lisa suddenly decides that she wants to get back together with Carla and decides to intercept Carla at the airport but it looks like she may be too late.
Over at David and Shona's place, Shona has planned a baby shower but didn't tell David until he arrived at their house to see several women drinking out of baby bottles (don't ask). Davey is surprised (not in a good way) that Shona is celebrating the arrival of their baby when both Shona and the baby are at risk.
The shower doesn't end well as Shona reacts badly to a gift exchange receipt that she interprets as a sign that the baby may not live. Afterwards, Shona admits to David that she is scared about what might happen.
Debbie continues to plan her wedding and invites Kevin as well as Abi and Carl. Kev refuses to attend but some wise words from Jack convince him to change his mind.
Last, but certainly not least, a full episode was devoted to the deteriorating relationship between Todd and Theo as Theo becomes more controlling and more violent by the minute. A couple of cameras (which Todd placed in the flat) record a frightful record of the abuse and violence culminating in a call to police by neighbours who hear a terrible commotion coming from the flat.
The police force their way in only to be confronted by an ashen-faced Todd.
And now for a few lines from the short week that was:
Debbie quizzes Ronnie about his preference for the wedding:
"Fireworks or turtle doves?"
(...but not both or you might have a horrible accident)
Shona raises a toast at her baby shower:
"A toast to our little fighter"
(are you talking about David?)
Kirk ponders the misnamed reindeer:
"They should be called snowdeer"
(call Rudolph and let him know)

Well, fellow chagrined Corrie watchers, so ends another short week of Coronation Street episodes. I have communicated my displeasure to the highest echelons of the CBC but to no avail. Hopefully regular scheduled episodes will resume this week on CBC and continue... until the Olympics. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.
