Danny dumped Leanne this week after telling her he wanted to get back with Frankie, who wants nowt to do with her cheating, lying, good for nothing ex-husband.  Leanne's not the sort of girl to take things lying down. No, hang on, she is. What I mean is, she's a Battersby and she ain't going to go quiet. Danny pays her off with fifty grand now and the promise of another fifty grand if she keeps schtum about Mike's original will.  Now then, where there's a will, there's a way and Leanne leaves a copy of Mike's original will with Adam Barlow before she legs it off the street in the back of a taxi with a mascara streaked face, kissing tara to the second instalment of her retirement plan from Danny.  Adam can't believe his luck when he discovers that Mike's will leaving everything to him supercedes the one that left everything to Danny.  Ken advises caution and solicitors but Adam wastes no time rubbing Danny's nose in his own pile of mess. Danny's straight on the phone to Leanne in Espana and tells her if he should ever see her again in his life, he'll kill her.  So as you can imagine, Danny's not best pleased.

Over at Number 6, things go bump in the night. And in the middle of the day and at tea-time too. Is it the ghost of Tommy Harris or Craig sleeping rough and hanging around his old haunt?  When Charlie finds Craig in the house he slings him out in a bad mood. Sally and Kev tempt Craig to their house for bed and beans but he declines and sleeps rough on a park bench instead. He wants to wait for Rosie to return from France and refuses to go back to Bournemouth with granddad Keith who comes up in his car and a state of anxiety looking for his grandson.  Dev takes Craig on to work in the shop for a few hours each week and Roy helps Craig out with free food in the caff.

Talking of which, Sophie, Rosie and Cameron are hanging round the street like a bad smell now that school's broken up and they've got nothing better to do.  "Get out and get some fresh air!" yells Sally to the three of them when she finds them watching adult horror flicks on DVD in her front room. Chesney's not happy that Sophie and his mate Cameron are getting on so well together and leaving him out.

Since the birth of baby Peacock, Clare's thrown herself into cleaning, cooking, helping Bev organise her wedding, decorating the house, anything to stop her thinking about oncoming post-natal depression (yes, I know I called it ante-natal in last week's update, whoops!).  She's been so busy they haven't even thought of a name for lickle baby Peacock although I suspect the first name of Drew was easily dismissed.  Clare's even talking about going back to work although Ashley and Fred are much against the idea, I say, put yer feet up and have a rest for Gawd's sake, girl, you've just given birth.

Charlie spies Maria reading the flats to rent section of The Gazette. He offers her his old flat for £200 a month, which Maria gladly accepts and she moves in with Kirkeh and David Platt carrying boxes for her. Charlie's got designs on Maria and they're not healthy ones, oh no missus. We hear on the tabloid grapevine that he's going to do to Maria what he did to Shelley in the past. Yup, it's time to lock yourself in the bedroom in naff jim-jams for three months, Maria!

Sarah spends all week ignoring Jason and tells him to stop stalking her by txt msg. But by the end of the week when she's at work in the salon, Jason gets down on one knee (getting it covered in hairs from the salon floor, shurely?) declares his undying love for little Ms Platt and asks her to marry him.  She's gobsmacked and doesn't seem to notice that mid-haircut on her brother David's mad mane, she's left the scissors hovering dangerously close to his face.  David was a scream in this scene, which makes a change as he's usually a horror.   Sarah accepts Jason's proposal and the two of them are over the moon which is more than can be said for Gail and Eileen with the two mothers hear the news.

And that's just about that for this week.
