Awards and Lines of the week, starting August 3

We start off this week with a fashion award:
Cool hat of the week: Bill and Jason in kids' cowboy hats.

Best way to cover up your crime: Park your van with your business name on it in front of the place you're breaking into in broad daylight.


I know... everyone else has already said it but,
Pretty Woman moment: Becky going wedding dress shopping.

"You have my deepest sympathy" award: For Anna who wakes up to see Eddie on the other pillow every morning. But at least she gets good cake as her reward.

Word of the week: "Crack" They used it at least three or four times on Friday night, twice as in "What's the crack?" and once or twice more to describe Joe's habit.

Wearing blinders award: Gold and Silver star: Gail! A woman who works in a health clinic doesn't recognise the signs of drug addiction and doesn't recognise the sound of the alarm where she works, 20 yards away. It must have been ringing for 20 minutes and it was Audrey who heard it first. And why isn't it hooked into a security company and the police?
Bronze award: Michelle who vaguely noticed there was an alarm blaring. After everything was all over.

As pointed out by Flaming Nora, "I only had a bad back" was the line of the week, nay, decade, and having said that, Joe (Reece Dinsdale) gets the gold star for performance of the week! He, Tina and me as well, all in tears by the end of Friday's episodes.

Lines of the week:
David: "Take a chill pill, Joe." (that's not quite what he had in mind)
Pam: "Do you really think 'Cowboy' is the best image for a builder?"
Janice with a dry glance in Steve's direction: "Richard Gere's let himself go"
Pam to Kevin about Molly: "She's even got into the spirit of topless bathing, can you imagine that?" (Why yes, as a matter of fact, he can!)
Luke about Rosie: "Company wise, she's got less going for her than a dead crustacean!"

Also a couple of mentions of Tile Street by Audrey and Kevin, never heard of it before. Is it near Rosamond Street?

I've heard mention of Tile Street before, and looking on the map here, http://www.corrie.net/start/map.html it's parallel and behind Victoria Street
