Corrie weekly awards: February 27 - March 2


Tat award: A pond, a fountain, and all the junk from the market in the back garden.


Touched a nerve award: I think Leanne's hard words pushed all the buttons they were meant to with Carla.


You've changed your tune award: Eva's being really nice to Leanne!


Betrayal award: Two faced star: Jenny scheming with Frank to take the factory from Carla. Frank playing around with Jenny behind Sally's back.

Relationship Hangover award: (see Line of the Day below) Cracks in Peter and Carla's coupledom already and Peter's hitting the bottle again.


Convenient Community Service award: How likely would it really be that Lewis' community service would be located on Rosamund Street.

Employment query award: Why does Dennis have to have a job anyway? Surely he's drawing his Old Age Pension?

Pants on Fire award: Simon lied and said Carla's hitting him.

Smooth Operator award: Lewis dancing all over the restaurant critic and his snobbery.

Reality Bites award: Sally found out what Frank is really like.

You could do worse award: In fact, he has! But really? Beth looked quite nice!


Lines of the Week:
Leanne "Peter doesn't love you, Carla, he's addicted to you. Like the booze. And sooner or later the hangover's gonna kick in" (Got it in one)
Peter "You'll end up being best of pals, I promise" (Bad bet for a bookie to make)
Julie "We were right in the middle of dirty dancing!" Hayley " I love that film!" Julie "I don't mean the film" (*choke*)
Tracy to Deirdre "I don't think I could share a house with that many pots"
Beth "What a waste of a bath!"
Stella about Steve "He's been married more times than Elizabeth Taylor" Beth "Elizabeth who? Is she from round here? Is she after my Steve?"
Sally about Frank "Men like him don't come along every day" (you can say that again)

Do we really care award: Hands up who is actually interested if more slippery than a batch of eels Lewis Archer has mended his ways or not? His return is just so pointless, and of course silly old Aud will take him back. Strange that in a City the size of Manchester where is this creep doing his community service? Oh yes at the end of Coronation Street.

Cook of the Year Award: Who would want to eat that spag boll “made from scratch” cooked by Cruella with her phone stuck under her ear and her long black over dyed straggly hair hanging down dropping in it. YUK!

Two unlikely friends award: I liked the scene with young Craig and Deirdre, the two Clarice Cliff’s of the North, having a little bonding chat about their love of pottery.

Me me me award: Neither Peter nor Carla are really interested in the other’s problems, its all about THEM and THEIR needs. The cracks are beginning to show in their grubby relationship and I for one am revelling in their ultimate downfall. Carla’s comment that she needed Peter more than 8 year old Simon sums it up all really. The drunken wrecks deserve each other.

Best character in a long time award: Beth, she has some great lines. Some say she is like Cilla, but she has lifted the gloom anyway and is far more amusing that the buffoonish shenanigans of Three Chins Brian and Simpleton Julie.

Can you be any more patronising award: Eileen wearing the strangest of headgear – it wasn’t a hat – what exactly was it, it looked like a dead cat slung around her forehead – patronising poor Lesley with that condescending “grin” of hers, thinly veiling that she is only tolerating her so she can get it on with her husband; again they are canoodling in the room right next to poor Lesley pretending to be Debbie Harry. This story is becoming more and more uncomfortable to watch.

Bringing the Emergency Services into Disrepute award: Paul talking about constantly “throwing sickies” does not portray the Fire Service which employs very brave and heroic men in a very good light. Surely they would give Paul more support or help or at least some special or compassionate leave? Phil Collinson would have us believe that they are all a bunch of skivers.

The photo on the blog page made me start. It looked like Liz MacDonald cuddling up to Steve. Anyone else think that?

cheezy corn award: Owen acting all 'Mike Brady' with Faye-building a fantastic pond in the matter of a couple of hours and everyone standing around smiling and nodding. Gag.

Scariest scene..Peter and Ken - camera so close on their faces the top of their heads were cut off...cut to Ken..cut to Peter..back to Ken..back to Peter...I needed dramamine to get through it.

Anne Foster...amazing scene with her and Sally - finally somebody told her off in spades!

Desperate housewife wanabee..Sally ringing the doorbell and banging on Franks door...embarassing but sweet to watch as she got her come-uppance!!
