Guess who's back on the Street? None other than bad boy Terry
Duckworth who arrives with little Tommy under his arm. He walks
straight in to Jack and Vera's old house, (he doesn't know they
now have The Rovers) and interrupts Judy and Gary Mallet canoodling
over their noodles..."Just don't talk about babies"
Judy tells Gary "it puts me off". Jack and Vera are
delighted to see little Tommy but can't forgive Terry for his
past even though Terry insists he has changed.
Another (welcome) return to the Street is Canadian Steven who
turned up this week on a business visit to see Mike and the Kbec
factory. When Alma finds out, she's straight out to the shops
to buy new clothes for his visit and admits to Gail that she still
has feelings for Steven. Of course, Audrey is upset and jealous
when she hears this and has an argument with Alma in the Rovers,
telling her to lay off her son. Mike wants Alma to attend a business
lunch with himself and Steven but Alma is still reeling from making
a fool of herself last time with Steven and fakes a dentist appointment
to get out of the lunch date.
Fiona goes to visit Steve in prison but she tells Maxine she went
to visit her parents, and doesn't let Tony know where she's been
either. Steve tells Fiona that it's only the thought of her that
gets him through his prison ordeal each day and asks if she will
visit him again.
Vicky has left the Street, she's gone off to Switzerland on a
travel agent training course which Alec has arranged for her.
Alec wants to take her for a posh meal before she goes to the
airport but Vicky wants to go to the Rovers instead. It's champagne
all round in the Rovers and Betty gives Vicky her recipe for hot
pot. Raquel convinces Vicky she'd be more relaxed on the flight
if she had an aromatherapy message and Vicky agrees. She's shocked
to find out that Raquel's massage parlour is in the back of Fiona's
shop and doesn't know if she can face Fiona before she leaves,
but Raquel convinces her it's the best thing to do. Vicky and
Fiona have an awkward conversation about Steve and while Vicky
has washed her hands of the slime ball, it's obvious that Fiona
still has feelings for him.
What's Norris up to then? He's left Angela, and she hasn't been
seen for a few days in the office so Derek goes off to Angela's
house to see if she's there. He snoops around the house and finds
her car parked in the drive but no sign of Angela anywhere. He
tells Mavis that while he was looking around the house he got
a cold clammy feeling down his spine (I knew he shouldn't have
worn that old vest) and feels that something "just isn't
right". Norris is still living with Mavis and Derek and irritating
them to death. He goes off to Derek's allotment and digs a hole
deep enough to build an out of town shopping centre in. We all
want to know what he's buried in the hole.... could it be Angela?!?
Looks like Anne and Andy are friends once more when she comes
round to see him on the Street.
Raquel starts her aromatherapy massages and to get her business
off to a good start, she offers a free massage to Andy (who declines)
and then Tony (who doesn't). The lads in the Rovers are full of
innuendo about her massage business but she takes it all in her
stride. However, Curly isn't too pleased when he finds out what
the lads are saying about his wife, especially when Gary Mallett
offers Des up as a potential customer for Raquel. Percy pipes
up "They had aromatherapy in my day, you know. It was called
a camphor rub".
Percy knows the truth now about Joyce Smedley, that she was only
using him to get the bar maid's job in the legion. Like the old
soldier he is, he hides his feelings when he realises his friendship
has been abused, he just turns away from Joyce and says "I'll
bid you good-day, Mrs. Smedley". Poor old thing.
Alec pops into the Kabin to tell Rita that he may be her new neighbour.
Looks like he is buying Reg's old flat.
