Fashion disast...er...originality: Gemma is nothing if not inventive with her funeral outfits. From a Goth weeping widow look at Callum's to something like an explosion at a crayon factory for Kylie's.
Forerunner award: I hope Norris' eBay rampage clearing out Emily's things doesn't mean she's not coming back!
Suck up award: Pat knew he crossed a line. Big time back pedalling with flowers, an apology and those three little words. It worked.
Best Uncle Ever: Nick really is a good uncle to the kids, Bethany and he is always good with Simon, too.
Rock, meet hard place: Todd is up against the horns of a dilemma. Keep the secret, protect Sarah, Kylie, David and the kids or tell the secret and put your brother's mind at rest and bring him home.
Good Grief award: I say "good" only because it was a good scene. You don't often get to see the effects of a death on Corrie on other than the immediate family members. It was a nice touch to show us Eva sobbing on the bench, missing her best mate.
Potential couple: Gary and Sarah? Might work.
Sam Slick award: Oh that Phelan's good, isn't he? Manipulating
so that Sean catches Todd and Billy, big bust up, Sean giving Eileen an
ultimatum. When it looked like Sean and Todd might have worked through
things by talking at Eileen's coaching, he made sure Sean knew that she
had prior knowledge. That was the sound of the door slamming behind
Sean. One down, one to go but it will be more difficult to get rid of
Todd, I think.
Lines of the week:
Phelan to Todd "Let battle commence"
Sean "Friend in the coffin. Ex on the pulpit. Meltdown City."
Billy "You deserve an explanation" Sean "Sometimes a picture tells a thousand words"
Gail "I thought I'd never say this, but, Poor Eileen"
Sarah "Kylie saved my life. She doesn't deserve to be punished for it" Todd "Neither does my family"
Eileen to Phelan "You turn on people" Phelan "I just don't suffer fools" (that's one way of twisting it)
Steph to Robert "You really think I'm going to manage a control freak who can't add up?" Robert "I'm the creative one" (who is very much out of his depth. His ex-wife must have managed his old restaurant)
Maria "Watching you and me brother throwing pointy sticks at a wall all night? No thanks, I'll give it a miss" (when you put it that way...)
Sean "We've all seen your true colours. And they're garish!"
Steph to Robert "The money's great and all that, but we're not the problem" (short and to the point)
