Coronation Street Catch Up: the major organs, mouth organs and church organs edition

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

Peter has hit rock bottom. 

He doesn't want a liver transplant. He doesn't want to get better. Despite Carla's pleas, he seems bent on a path of self destruction. He gets kicked out of the Rovers and winds up at the Barlow house but Ken refuses to let him stay because Peter refuses to stop drinking. Finally Steve finds him in the ginnel passed out on a bunch of bin bags with a bottle.

Faye is under a lot of pressure as she tries to remain silent about the fact that it was her (not Gary) who assaulted Adam with a hospitality trophy. Tim suspects Faye is hiding something after he gets a visit from the police who are wondering how the weapon got into his rucksack. And, if that wasn't enough, Faye thinks she's pregnant.

Speaking of Gary, he's in prison along with poor old Johnny who is suffering from MS and having a tough time finding the shower (hint: turn left at the soap). Jenny is aghast when she learns about Johnny and his worsening health.

Dev has a surprise for Asha and Aadi's 16th birthday: a new shop sign with two ampersands! Just what they always wanted (not). However, on the plus side, Asha breaks up with that slime ball boyfriend, Corey, after they fall out over the gothy choker which Nina gives her. Credit to Yasmeen for giving Asha some advice about controlling louts (gleaned from bitter experience).

Over at the flat, Leanne is still hiding away leaving Simon with the burden of looking after her. He breaks a date with Kelly and even takes a part time job to generate some much needed cash. 

The increasingly annoying Daisy has wangled room and board with Jenny at the Rovers. Emma is also granted accommodation but Alina has to settle for staying with the gang at Ty and Fiz's (assuming Fiz agrees).

A fly in the ointment for Reptilian Ray. Seems his redevelopment plan has been held up by a judicial review (Nice one, Roy!). Ray is not happy.

And now for some lines from the week that was:

Abi shouts to Ray:
"Jog on, creep"

(couldn't have said it better myself)

Faye to Maria:
"I think that I might be pregnant"

(again?)

Ray admits his unethical dealings with the Planning Council Chair to Deb :

"I might have oiled the wheels of local bureaucracy"

(you mean you bribed her?)

Sally wants Tim to stop talking about his beloved Streetcars chair:
"Will you stop saying the word 'buttocks'?"

(bummer)

Sign on the local penitentiary:
"Welcome to HM Prison Norcross"

(who is that sign for?)

Peter specifies to Adam what he doesn't want:
"...any major organs or any organs, mouth organs, church organs"

(Apparently many blues musicians are mouth organ donors )

The new sign on Dev's shop:
"D&A&A Alahan's"

(only two ampersands?)

***

Well cobble comrades, so ends another week. I really hope Faye isn't pregnant. Hasn't that poor girl suffered enough? Oh well, let's see what happens next week. Always glad to have your company here at the Hip. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week. Cheers!
