Coronation Street Weekly Updates for the internet since 1995.

Have you ever wished your name was Beryl?  No, me neither, but isn't it such a nice word?   Someone else who's not called Beryl has flown off with her mother to Gdansk.  I understand they build boats in Gdansk but it's not a sailing ship, it's an ailing hip that takes Blanche to Poland with Deirdre for comfort and support.  Home alone Ken enjoys the peace and quiet with a good book and a quarter of lemon bon-bons tucked up his cardi sleeve.

Ah, but where is Tracy and Amy, I hear you ask.  They've gone to stay with Peter, I reply.  Tracy found out that Steve was using her to get legal responsibility for Amy and so refused to sign the  form at the court, running out in tears.  Steve sends Liz to the Barlow's to find out where Tracy's gone but it all ends in tears when Liz and Deidre fall out, which is probably not new to Liz as she looks like she's falling out of most everything she wears. Mind you, if I had a chest like hers I'd enter it for a prize.

In the café, Roy makes a Meccano model of his granddad's contraption before following the plans and making it for real.  The  café ceiling is covered in fans, pulleys, levers and switches. "Eureka!" shouts Roy, as onlookers Hayley and Vera wonder, exactly, just what it is that it does.

Gail flips when she sees the mess that Sarah and Scooter are making in her house and when she feels likes she's being taken for granted she lashes out at Scooter in no uncertain terms.  So how  Scooter and ten boxes of comics end up moving in to the Platts is  anyone's guess, I'm sure it would have made sense if I'd been paying attention, but it's been an odd week, and I wasn't.

It's Jamie's birthday and Frankie plans a big supper with Leanne and Candice invited.  Jamie's real mum Carole is the birthday surprise when she turns up half-drunk and then drinks to fill the other half at the dinner table.  Frankie's as gracious as she can be to the woman who's husband she nicked while she was supposed to be babysitting her son all them years ago but Carole, really dear, should have learned to let go by now. Carole loses it completely and after she ends up in tears, Frankie and Jamie drive Carole home.  This leaves Danny and Leanne alone in the house for a
bit of rumpy-pumpy after Warren and Candice go to the pub.  

And finally this week Sean buys a stuffed dead cat from Keith the taxidermist for £30 he found in his pocket which he borrowed from Angela Harris before she went into prison. Could it be any more contrived?  Anyway, I won't bore you with the details of this as one shouldn't poke fun at a dead cat on national television but this storyline will lead Sean to the local vet with his adorable Old English Sheepdog next week.  You just might have to stop me from stroking the telly, or indeed, taking it out for a walk.

And that's just about that for this week.
