Everyone on the Street seems to assume that Natasha is gone for good just because she took off in a fancy taxi. That may be but before she left, she had a few choice words for a few choice people. So, without further ado, here's a special Thursday edition of TGIF featuring some of Natasha's zingers. Take it away, Ms Blakeman:
Natasha stops in at the salon to tell David his place on the evolutionary scale:
"You're down there with the snakes"
(hey, that's an insult to snakes!)
Natasha waltzes into the Bookies to thank Leanne:
"You made me wake up and smell the bitchfest"
(I guess that's a new kind of aromatherapy)
Natasha has a quick word with Peter as he comes into the bookies:
"Look Leanne in the eye and ask her if she loves you"
(can she use her 'phone a friend' before she answers?)
and finally, Natasha walks into the clinic to tell Gail how she feels:
"I just wanted to say I never liked you."
(Don't sugar coat it, tell her how you really feel)
Natasha takes another shot at her Gailness:
"That top's too small for you"
(either that or her body's too big..)
Natasha again:
"Chop you in half and we'd see all the rings. How old are you Gail? 103?"
(she doesn't look a day over 91)
Natasha's final shot to Gail as Dr. Hunky arrives on the scene:
"Was it appropriate for you to illegally access my medical records?"
(only when no-one is watching)
Natasha walks out of the clinic after Dr. Hunky fires Gail:
"Back of the net!"
(now she's gotta run, it's time for her meds)
I'll miss Natasha. I always liked her off the wall comments. These last few weeks the actress did an outstanding job conveying all the different emotions Natasha was feeling. Most of all, I loved the way she nailed Gail before leaving Weatherfield!
ReplyDeleteI agree that Natasha really showed how good she can be when she has something substantial to work with. She carried off her last visit to the Street with a nice blend of emotional distress and calm lucidity. And, yes, the Gail 'put-down' was indeed the icing on the cake. Thanks for the comments and all the best, CH
