Coronation Street Catch Up: the vegan conspiracy edition

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

Forget 5G, the real global conspiracy revolves around a dastardly plot to deprive Steve McDonald of tubular meats. That's right.  Call it a Chipolata Conspiracy or the Bratwurst Identity or the Salami Scandal or... (that's quite enough - editor).

Sorry. The point is that Steverino has a bizarre meltdown in the caf because Nina is all out of sausages and offers a veggie alternative breakfast option to meat-seeking Steve. This causes Steve to go ballistic until Leanne enters the frankfurter fray and talks Steve down from his histrionics. Seems the root cause of this unconvincing drama is worry over Oliver.

But let's put the sausages on the um.. back burner. 

The battle lines over Geoff are causing more discord. Tim and Sally are at odds. Tim tells Sally not to make him choose between her and his dad. Alya cannot face working with Geoff anymore and offers to buy him out with Sally's financial help. No dice. Geoff turns down the offer but is not happy to learn that Sally is giving Alya money which he had originally given to her and Tim to help pay for their wedding (although it was Yasmeen's money and she didn't know about it)..

Down the Street, Adam and Sarah are at odds and it looks like their marriage is on the rocks. This is because Adam learns about the existence of a watch belonging to Rick the loan shark which was found in the woods by Bernie and sold to Sarah who disposed of it in order to protect Gary. Meanwhile Maria wants to know if Gary is still in love with Sarah. 

Ches makes an unscheduled guest appearance on Gemma's live vlog. The unknowing Ches is caught without much clothing (more viewers though I would think). However, through the vlog, Gemma connects with a former false friend/nasty mommy (Vanessa) who has fallen on hard times.

And apparently Carla can play "Daydream Believer" on the recorder but Peter is skeptical.

And now for some lines from the week that was:

David to Sarah who is upset over Adam:

"Why are your eyes leaking?"

(and what is that salty discharge?)

Bernie wants Adam to show his new watch:
"Give me a flash "

(not during COVID-19 please)

Steve believes there is a global plot against sausages:
"Vegan conspiracy"

(it's like the Da Vinci Code only... with more Mortadella)

Alya to Geoff:

"You're small and you're vile"

(and those are his good points)

Maria to Gary:
"Are you still in love with Sarah?"

(Why? Is that a problem?)

Sally's opinion of Geoff's reason for not telling the police the truth:
"More holes than a crochet bedspread"

(I wonder if you can buy those at Ikea?)

Well, pandemic punters, so ends another week.  Good to see that Yasmeen is recovering in hospital. Craig is looking very svelte and Dev has a distinguished beard.  And, who would even want a watch with someone else's inscription on it anyway? I'd rather have a Timex.  Oh well. Thanks for the pleasure of your company and I hope you have a great week. Cheers!
