Rile the bear award: Gold Star: Getting nosy with Carla only gets you ear ache, Nozzer!
Move on, sweetheart award: Maria has no business in Carla's business, Frank or not.
Pants on fire award: Gary "forgot" to tell Izzy that Will came to the door? Yeah, right.
Blast from the past award: The first song they played at the birthday party was the old Spice Girls tune. If you will recall, Leanne used to wear her hair like one of them when she first arrived.
Stroppy cow award: Mardy star: Eva really needs an attitude adjustment.
Reality check award: Painful star: Becky seems to have had her eyes opened.
Crap birthday pressie award: Ceramic star: Leanne gets her own commemorative plate. And probably finding your mum might make it a bit more memorable.
Are you new here? Gold Star: Ken has lived next to a pub for decades. Surely there's been noisy evenings before. Ok, maybe not to this extent!
Silver Star: Amy didn't even look sideways at Becky in the pub. Weird.
Who didn't see that coming award: Realty star: Owen bought Anna's house. That was a no-brainer.
Lines of the week:
Becky "You're a jumped up van man with delusions of grandeur"
Lloyd about Becky "What's yours is hers, what's hers is hers"
Norris about he and Rita "I suppose we're like the Sartre and Beauvoir (sp) of Weatherfield" (More like Laurel and Hardy)
Fiz "From now on, no more worryin'" (famous last words)
Julie about her 'muffin top' "Muffin? I've got more like a large Victoria sponge!"
Norris "I am not a tight fisted ungenerous person" (*koff*)
Mary about Norris "Shake him down, Sophie!"

Frostys awards:
Most lame travel excuse award: Toya missed the train and it ‘was ages’ since the next one so couldn’t attend her sister’s 30th birthday party. Not credible that nobody from Leanne’s family would turn up for her milestone birthday. Why didn’t they just get another actress to play Toya for a short visit?
Looking down her nose from her high horse award: Carla at the charity auction acting like it was all so beneath her until Frank bought her a designer handbag that is. I am sure if it were a wine vat auction that would have perked up the interest of this hard faced woman.
For goodness sake give him a decent story award: Dennis is just so fantastic, I know I am repeating myself but the writers need to get their butts in gear and write him an interesting storyline. It’s stupid and short-sighted bringing him back just to tail around after Rita, who he only knew briefly in the old days, and cadge drinks in the Rovers.
Scary child award: Faye reminds me more and more of the child from the Exorcist, something very unpleasant and unnerving about this very strange little girl – shudder!
Get yourself a razor award: That policeman that is investigating the Stape case looks like he should be selling the big issue on the corner of Rozaman Street, what a scruff and don’t they usually work in pairs?
No manners award: How does Sophie get off the way she constantly speaks to people? Norris (Nozza) is annoying but she should have more respect. That constant sour face, sense of entitlement and the LOUD nails down a blackboard voice – sad how manners and attitudes have gone downhill over the last 25 years.
Unpleasant taste in your mouth award: Now we all know we are supposed to feel sorry for Stella but her sob story just doesn’t wash why she left her baby all those years ago with Mrs Battersby senior. She obviously didn’t try that hard to make contact as she would have probably been awarded custody or at least access. Tries to barge into Leanne’s life with a cake after 30 years – unbelievably selfish.
Lemon face award: can Eva get any more complaining? If they had made her a nice friendly character we could have had some sympathy with her as it must be hard to find out suddenly you are not the first born/only child after all but she is so hideous to everyone that we just don’t care. I hope that Eva will be written out when her contract ends as to me she serves absolutely no purpose whatsoever. Chris G and Jane D;s usual 1st class acting skills carried this abysmal storyline but Michelle Collins is just not strong enough I am afraid..
Leanne didn;t just wear her hear like a Spice Girl; I'm pretty sure 'Wannabe' was the song she was caught performing dressed in layers of Underworld undies when she was sacked from her first ever job cleaning at the Faktry. I thought her "Oh, I LOVE this song!" was a clever little homage to Corrie's past, alongside Dennis' Knackers-yard comment last week. Let's have more of these!
there's a snippet of Battersby Spice on here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ko5DadG7QM
As far as I'm concerned Jane Danson & Chris Gascoyne outclassed everyone in the acting stakes again.They are brilliant as a couple.There are some other class actors but they seem to nail every scene they are in.
I'm with you, Frosty, on Eva. So far, she's more irritating than anyone on that show at the moment.
And while i was willing to give Michelle Collins the benefit of the doubt, I haven't been impressed with her emotional acting though her day to day stuff is fine. And i still don't mind the accent, that's the least of her problems.
Fed up with Fiz's one acting expression - rabbit caught in the headlights, jaw dropped. Leane and Peter - brilliant acting as usual.
I was hoping with Dennis' return we would have scenes with him, Ken and Emily talking about the old times and the older characters (I know we got Elsie). But talking about Annie Walker, Ena Sharples, more about Elsie, and even bring up some characters from Rita and Ken's past like Len Fairclough (who was a friend of Elsie for a long time). They are really missing opportunities to do this. And hopefully find out what happened to Dennis' family, like his sister Linda and Husband Ivan and his nephews.
I think Michelle Collins has given Corrie a much needed breath of fresh air. In my humble opinion she played a blinder on Friday and her grasp of the dynamics of soap acting is head and shoulders above that of Jenny McAlpine and Sue Cleaver et al.
I agree that Chris Gascoyne and Jane Danson are absolutely brilliant but as someone who was dreading the arrival of 'Stella' she has put my mind at rest. The accent has now stopped sticking out as much for me too.
I too think think Dennis Tanner is being a bit wasted at the moment but I'm sure this will only be temporary.
I thought Toyah was in London, so if she missed her train after Leanne's party had started, when exactly was she planning to arrive? After the party was over? Errrmmm. Aren't there trains from London to Manchester every half hour?
Fiz should make a complaint about that policeman's harrassment. They don't drop in for a chat, beetle off to consult a pair of neighbours and then return immediately to tax the suspect with what the neighbours said. Why is the research so apalling on this programme?
Agree...love Leanne..and can Peter get ANY hotter? OMG! I also cannot stomach Eva, but her mother's pampering and giving her everything she asked for would explain some of the attitude. The idea that Eva would think Peter was banging Stella was hilarious. I laughed out loud at that one.
Fiz..not feeling the love here. She committed fraud and has to take her licks.
