your one stop update on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...
Maybe Leanne thought Nick and Toyah would like a full English breakfast... with a side order of toasted passports?
Actually it was revenge.
Leanne treated the passports like Pop Tarts when she saw that the happy couple were planning a nice vacation while she was condemned to pick up litter as a court-ordered, community service sentence (I'm surprised that Hope wasn't in the frame for the arson misdeed).
Either way, the ex-Altovalent member and former arsonist almost succeeded in starting a major fire in Nick's flat before he and Toyah came home in the (ahem) 'nick' of time and removed the toasted passports.
This follows Leanne's latest nocturnal accomplishment as she has a legover with Ryan who seemed happy to oblige. Between Ryan and Kit, it seems almost every woman on Coronation Street has access to their horizontal delights.
Leanne also tried it on with Ronnie but was rebuffed and then subjected to the Wrath of Debbie (reminiscent of the old days of Elsie Tanner when women felt compelled to warn other women to keep their mitts off their hapless, libido-driven males).
Over at Ken's, it seems that Cassie is continuing to ingratiate herself with the naive nonagenarian and 'Kenny' has asked her to move in (strictly as a full-time carer, of course). Tracy and Adam's efforts to expose Cassie's misdeeds (i.e. drugging Ken and covering up her actions) have fallen flat so far.
Meanwhile, young Amy is shocked and unsettled by news that her rapist (Aaron) is getting married and having a baby with his new partner. In a panic, Amy calls Steve but Steve is busy making intimate small talk with Leanne (oh oh).
There's danger over at the Platt's house as some unsettling events indicate that noted local gangster (Harvey) is out for revenge or recompense (or both) for the money that David took.
First, poor David (the dog, not the man) gets hit by a car but fortunately survives. Then Shona is kidnapped and thrown into the back of a van but is subsequently released later unharmed. David reports the whole story to Kit at the police station but the family is rightly scared of what might happen next.
The Weatherfield Police remain quite busy as Chesney is taken down to the station after dash cam video footage shows him pouring sugar into the gas tank of the mystery man who seems to be stalking him. Ches is let off with a warning but it looks like he will have to use the rest of his settlement money (received after Les' death) to pay damages.
In other legal news, Lauren is found not guilty (of killing Joel) and is free to go and play happy families with Frankie and Max.
More drama over at Kev and Abi's place as Kevin goes for a scan of the lump on his you-know-what. Abi is a no-show at the hospital and later has a complete meltdown at the place where she found Mason stabbed and bleeding. Meanwhile it seems that she forgot about her son (Alfie) who appears to have been left in her car.
And finally, it seems that Daisy now knows the identity of the father of her child but is not revealing the info to anyone.
And now for a few lines from the week that was:
Bernie to Gemma:
"Dev turned up for his last wedding on horseback"
(and he was 'saddled' with the bill)
Ken to Adam who warns him about Cassie:
"You're being both offensive and impertinent"
(so is Cassie when she calls you 'Kenny'. Ugh!)
Brian to Kirk:
Sarah to David (her brother not the canine):
"Your hair does not grow after you die"
(bad news for bald men everywhere)
Kit to Daisy:
"If that kid is mine, I'm all in"
(thanks for the limp, conditional commitment)
Debbie to Leanne after Leanne makes a pass at Ronnie:
"Keep your claws off my man"
(can't Ronnie fight his own battles?)
Kit to Daniel re: Daisy
"[she] deserves way more than an arrogant, self-serving muppet like you"
(although the alternative isn't that great either...)
Daisy to Daniel:
"I need you out-of-bounds and unattainable"
(have you considered becoming a nun?)
Leanne to Toyah:
"You stole my fiancé"
(I think the fiancé was mostly responsible)
Bethany to Daisy:
"Maybe your problem is you think you need a man?"
(By Jove, I think you've got it!)
Debbie to Leanne after finding out about the toasted passports:
"That's a bit psycho"
(ya' think?)
"They got the wrong David. They should have run you over"
(anyone can make a mistake)
***
Well fellow snowy Street spectators, so ends another week. Let's hope Abi gets some help before things go any further And let's hope someone exposes Cassie before she bilks Ken out of all his money.
Thanks for dropping by and spending some time here at the Hip. Take it easy if you're shoveling show. And, if you're not shoveling snow, just take it easy. Either way, have a great week!
