Tony Gordon, It's Friday: the Lancashire Tapas edition

spoiler alert: this post makes reference to the August 18 episode on CBC

Lancashire tapas?  Is that a piece of gristle on a Ritz cracker with a sprinkle of pork scratchings? But I digress. While Ciaran concocts tasty delicacies to repel attract punters to the Joinery, Kylie has come up with a baby selling scheme (take a number Kylie, Tracy Barlow is way ahead of you - ed). Ashley has indigestion (and that's before he tried the Lancashire tapas) and someone has been leaving flowery tributes at the factory door (this buds for you, C-olin). Let's take a quick look at the memorable lines of the week in this edition of 'Tony Gordon It's Friday' or TGIF. Allez:

Ashley is adamantly opposed to Claire's French demenagement:
"I don't want to learn French. I don't want to live in France"
(Vive les soggy chips et la biere tiede!)


Ashley tells Claire that their relationship is turbulent:
"This marriage has had enough bad patches to make an ugly quilt"
(stop making blanket statements)


Sally reveals a nautical home furnishing plan to Kevin:
"We're thinking about getting an aquarium for the conservatory"
(good idea! Now Rosie will have somewhere to try out her bikini)


Graeme tells Ashley that lying to Claire is not a good idea:
"You're not going to be riding the love train this side of the London Olympics"
(the little engine that couldn't)


Leanne is surprised by Ciaran's menu ideas for the new wine bar:
"An Irish chef, a Spanish concept and Lancashire food. What could possibly go wrong?"
(a fight, a bullfight and a food fight?)

Well, fellow Corrie fans, that's it for the week. Rather a lean week in terms of lines but that's the way it goes. I hope you have a great weekend and enjoy the Sunday omnibus episode. I'll be back here next week and I do hope you'll join me. Until then, it's time for me to sling my hook and get on my bike (in that order). Cheers & all the best!
