Coronation Street Episode Review Monday 31st August

Bernie is convinced that she doesn't have the BRCA gene as she's turned up for her mammograms and they've been negative. And possibly because she's been putting crystals in her bra. I did love the very brief tenure of Celeste - and her wigs - and it's a shame that the character couldn't have gone on for longer (although I'm assuming Ms F Barber is in demand). The main fallout from her death is the Winter clan are now worried about their genetic tendancy to breast cancer - I'm guessing elective mastectomies is going to the new Issue?

Todd is spiralling and it's clear to see, after months of turmoil

Todd is missing and unfortunately is not "nestling in the arms of a builder called Jed with a tattoo of Wincey Willis on his left leg", he's in the hotel, trying to chat up Ronnie's business contact whilst Rafael looks on snootily. Todd looks shocked when he finds out Celeste has died - I mean, it was expected wasn't it? Unless she hadn't paid for her funeral yet (I do hope Dame Dolly Parton had a Frances Barber-themed funeral). Later, Todd castigates himself for not being there for her and goes off for another drinking bout, despite kind words from Georgie.

Driscoll-Price family - Coronation Street - ITV

So, last week we had influencers and socials taking over the pub and this week, the Driscolls read online reviews, one calling Maggie "a clumsy Dickensian pie-seller". Eva then decides she's going to be the Queen of Insta, waving her phone in everyone's face.

And finally, Debbie wears slippers to work. They look a lot more comfortable than the leopard print heels, to be honest. You do you, Debs, you do you.

CELESTE’S DEATH CRUSHES TODD George prepares to break the news of Celeste’s death to Todd, who is late for work and stayed out all night. When Mary suggests they rally to support him over dinner and remind him he has good friends, everyone agrees. When Todd calls at the hotel to visit Celeste, Ryan reveals she died. How will Todd react?

BERNIE OPENS UP Gemma shares the awful news about Celeste with Kit and tells him about the family truth. Dev finds Bernie crying in the Rovers’ backyard and does his best to comfort her.

DEBBIE SLIPS UP AT WORK Ronnie offers to handle their supplier meeting, but as Debbie prepares to leave, he gently reminds her to put on shoes. At the hotel, Ronnie points out she’s still wearing her slippers and a confused Debbie stares at her feet and suggests it’s time they went home.

ELSEWHERE Kirk tells Maggie and Brian that their night of passion is the talk of the factory.
