Then Becky rampaged to the Rovers, bloodied and beaten but still up for the challenge of taking down her mother-in-law. "You think you're Queen of the Rovers!" she yelled at Liz. "But you're just a tart with a bus pass." It's lines like that which go down in Corrie history. Packing up Liz's frills and frou-frou frocks then dumping them in a dirty puddle was a work of genius too.
And Simon Gregson, as Steve McDonald, was wonderful to watch. Anyone else think tonight was a Corrie corker?

Not really. Too much shouting. Although Steve has finally realised that Becky's to blame for EVERYTHING! I used to like her - now not so much :(
Loved it tonight, I hope Liz leaves with the upper hand, and I hope Steve and Becky lose the Rovers
Tonight's Corrie was corked not a corker. As said in the blog, it is beginning to resemble the London rubbish. The catfight was too violent and why is landing a punch on David funny?
I have had enough of Becky whining about being treated like dirt, which is what both episodes seemed to be mainly about.
Janice must be rubbing her hands together at all that compensation she is going to get from the Industrial Tribunal. Errr.... actually its just a device to make her departure more credible.
Credible...now thats a good word. Sadly not one that can be applied to Corrie any more. The Maria/Frank story has been a disgrace, the Xin story is laughable, Becky is just tedious and I will no longer be watching after tonight's dull and dire offering.
Sorry but I'm with CSC. Steve and Liz were good, and there were some funny moments, but on the whole I found it horrible. And a bit tedious - Becky's done drunken rampages and self pitying many times before. I'm thoroughly fed up with her hogging the screen.
I love Kat Kelly......she was fantastic tonight. I've always loved Becky.
Why is Liz completely innocent in all this?? She is a hypocrite. She was the one who wouldn't stop talking and talking and insulting Becky while Becky was trying to ignore it. I'm sick of that woman she should have stayed in Spain. I understand how people are getting sick of Becky's pity parties but Liz is not a saint.
Hi newbie here.
agreed great epo. Also Becky seems to have completely forgotten about Max who is either still languishing at nursery or is upstairs listening to 'devoted' Becky's pity party. It comes to something when Kylie and David seem the better option!
I thought it was dreadful and uncomfortable to watch. I just wanted Liz who is a tough cookie to lamp Becky one and leave her lying in the puddle that she so nastily threw Liz's clobber into. Gail should have manned up a bit as well, didnt prison teach her anything.
Corrie needed that kick up the arse last night. Brilliant stuff.
Tart with a bus pass, the puddle, David Plat getting a wallop in the face and Becky's screaming mental, bloodied face at the Platt's door have me howling with laughter and happiness at the telly!
I'm sorry - since when were Corrie and credible two words in a sentence? This is a soap opera, fantasy, pantomime - that's why we love it so much. Katherine Kelly is a wonderful actress and excelled last night
Wonderful acting from Becky. Her only mistake was not to of smashed Traceys face into the puddle and wipe the smirk off her face.
Far too shouty and violent for me, though there were some funny moments. I felt exhausted afterwards.
BUT Peter, Leanne and Simon are back - hooray!
I enjoyed the fight just because it was sooooo much fun to see Becky take down both Kylie and David in one fell swoop almost without breaking a sweat! Not to mention the way that Gail so carefully avoided being drawn into the brawl, all the while yelping for David to do something (when he'd already been taken down a couple of times so clearly wasn't capable of breaking it up!)
Becky is very, very damaged and spiralling out of control right now. Hard to watch, but the natural culmination of months' worth of storyline. The question now is whether or not she and Steve will be able to find their way back from their current position of rock bottom - and will any of the relationships in either of their lives survive all this?
I didn't like it at all - the fight was too rough, I'm sick to the back teeth of Becky and the whole thing reminded me of Eastenders. I don't know where Corrie's heading at the moment but I'm not enjoying it.
Kat Kelly was brilliant, I gotta say... I feel sorry for Becky, she's totally gone into self-destruct mode and it'll be interesting to see if she can pick herself up from it all. It does seem as tho Kylie ruined her nice life for her.
I'm a Becky fan, too and i enjoyed it though i can't understand how Steve hasn't had enough of her by now. She's even harder work than Karen was!
Am so sick of Becky I hope she goes away and gets help and comes back briefly when she has dealt with her issues and shows some maturity. At this stage I'd rather Tracy get with Steve
Corrie is awful at the moment and I'm saying that as someone who loves the show. The Xin storyline is just so predictable/boring, Maria's story with Frank has gone a bit flat and Becky and Steve are being ruined by another bad story. But when Roy's mum turns up and Tommy Duckworth things could pick up :D

Yeah. Becky in meltdown was somehow totally magnificent. I do hope that she gets out the other side of this with her "nice life" restored. Becky's been on too long a journey from the dark side for her to be thrown back into the abyss now.
Some of the comments here remind me of children in the playground chanting "Fight, fight, fight". The amateur psychology about Becky is also pathetic.
If Corrie does not need to be credible, then why not have aliens land on the Red Rec or Emily Bishop become the manageress of a pole dancing club. Hmmm... probably next week's storylines....
Well, I have to agree with "splunge" above. I like Liz but she was really annoying me, she pushed and pushed and finally got the result she wanted. And telling Steve she hadn't said anything to Becky - the little liar!
