Both Barrels award: Not only did Rob and Tracy do some prime cooking for Deirdre but they brought her a free telly from the shop except we saw her watching a flat screen tv before that.
Mad Cow award: Tracy trying to frighten her mother into letting Rob move in. Runner up, Liz roughing Peter up in the Gents'! Wonderful stuff from writer Mark Wadlow!
Green Eyed Monster award: Peter. But he still got what he wanted in the end and now they've gone past the point of no return.
Oh, Grow Up award: Tracy and Liz exchanging insults like 13 year olds.
Worst Idea Ever: Deirdre hates Rob. So of course Tracy wants to move him in and Rob wants to as well!
Time Warp award: From when Carla gave Roy the keys and sent him off to get his bag, there was time enough for Peter and Tina to go through round two, get dressed again, for Tina to sort out her hair and for Hayley to wake up and have a proper conversation with Carla.
Doctor Who reference: Roy's brain really is like a TARDIS!
Appropriate image: Carla as Medusa. Yes, I can see it.
Lines of the week:
Tina "I hate women who sleep with married men"
Deirdre "...without you shoving yer sexuality in me face while I'm eating me boiled egg"
Maddie "If it isn't Saint Sophie"
Carla "Why can't everyone just get on?" Peter "Drop the hippie act, it don't suit ya"
Deirdre about Rob in his pants "I've seen better. But...I've seen a lot worse!"
Tracy "Most parents would be chuffed to bits that their offspring wanted to hang out with them" Deirdre "Most parents don't have offspring like you!" (Whoah, the worm has turned!)
Carla "Do I look like I take sugar, Roy?" and about a quiet new year "saves waking up in a puddle of your own regret"
Tina "What've we done?" (and you've done it twice)
Deirdre "All this is outweighed by one simple fact. I don't like him"
Eileen "Any self respecting flea would have bogged off to warmer climes"
Hayley "I won't see the daffodils or the poppies but I'll still smell the roses"
Jason "Cheer up, you never know what's round the corner" Sean "That's what worries me, J-boy!"
Kylie "One door gets slammed in your face, another one gets kicked in. That's just the way the mop flops"
Tina "Unless we've got a future, take your hand off my face" Peter "Depends on what you mean by future" (and that in a nutshell is a typical married man's response.)

Another 'oh, grow up' award: Tracy. Please let this character go as soon as possible. Beyond redemption.
Puke award: Peter and Tina. The writers clearly want us to either be outraged or deeply moved. For me, it's in the Mark/Marcia, Fireman Paul, Ryan 1/Ryan 2 category. And I know we're meant to feel either sympathy or pleasure at Carla's situation but I just fast forward.
Tracy is the lowest of the low - terrorizing her own mum in order to get her own way? She's lower than drug addicts who've no doubt done the same to their own folk. There's no way back for her except behind bars or in the grave.
It was a lovely moment when Simon gave Carla a present he had bought with his own money - and Carla actually loved it - the singing of happy birthday think simon has taken to Carla. Shame on Peter only thinking of a certain dull orange skinned bartmaid called Tina. Tracey and Rob not as thick as some but very childish and stupid wrecking Deidre's home and possessions seems she has stuck on the age of 18 and not grown up - Deidre should have called the police and dobbed in Tracy and her hapless boy friend Rob...
Was Nick's workout gear intentionally funny? He's meant to be 32 not 72.
The telly Tracy & Rob brought Deidre was a plasma screen, which she likely didn't have before.
Hysterically funny as always, Tvor!
(An aside - glad to have the Captcha thingys with numbers, much easier to read!)
Humpty, well said! I'm watching in Canada and they just hooked up for the first time last night. I find the whole thing sickening he is old enough to be her father and for God's sake he just got married! As far as Tracy is concerned - what a waste of space she is...a crap mother/daughter completely self-absorbed!
