Creepfest award: Phelan.
Economical with the Truth: Gary didn't tell Owen, just as he promised, He did however, give Phelan a right bashing leading to the Panic Stations award.
Coward Award: Dev didn't stand up to Sharif and he didn't even tell Jason he was using a different builder for several days.

Lines of the week:
Todd "Mom thinks I'm trouble and I don't know why" (Got an hour?)
Norris to Dev "According to Psychic Sally, that's only going to happen if your Venus is rising" Steve "Is your Venus rising" Dev "No, man"
Todd "Sensitive is my middle name" Eileen "Really? I thought it was Trouble"
Mary "I know from personal experience that the cocoa bean can be one's staunchest ally!" (too right!)
Rita about Roy "There goes a man with a right to a broken heart" (Rita, you're just as entitled)

Rita to Norris "You drive me to distraction but you're a good man"
Gary "I Promise. I won't say a word to your dad" (Well, he didn't lie, not exactly)

Owen mad because Gary beat up someone? Didn't he have Jim MacDonald beaten up by a few of his cronies - put him in hospital. Owen's the mayor of Loserville and Anna's his secretary.
ReplyDeleteMarcus jumping on Todd..out of the blue..out of character and hopefully out of Weatherfield in short order. What a waste of what might have been a great storyline.
EE is going to give Corrie a good thrashing if the producers don't wake up PDQ.
Rita's line about Roy was very poignant and shows she's a realist. Roy and Hayley had true love. Rita's marriage was a non-starter from the get-go and that line demonstrates Rita's smart enough to realize she shouldn't break her heart over a relationship that wasn't real. Her pride is likely more damaged than her heart.
