Andie and Jude are still being pill? If your baby has an allergy, it's up to you to make sure he doesn't come in contact with that allergen not a café's employee.
ReplyDeleteIt speaks volume about the worthlessness of jobs at Underworld that Eva thinks offering manicures to laid off workers would help them get over her role in that mess of a robbery.
Luke follows Phelan to a deserted mill, alone, knowing that he's dealing with a dubious character. Any chance he might tell Kevin or Tyrone where he's going?

Deleteot on Corrie. People always go 'investigating' without touching base with anyone or leaving a note saying where they'll be. Since Luke already knew Phelan's had lied and gotten someone else to lie about Andy's whereabouts, it seemed like it was time to contact the police or at least get someone to come along.
DeleteWho does Eva think she is taking over the Rovers backroom which is owned by Peter and Toyah for free manicures for the girls?!
ReplyDeleteIf she felt that guilty she should have sold her pink car and give the money to them!
I agree about Luke,Kevin who knows what Phelan is like should have gone with him.
I hope Luke isn't Phelan's latest victim.
Are the Luke-racism-assault and Luke-Phelan-Andyhunter stories going to converge; or is having him involved in two parallel storylines some compensation for being little more than a glorified extra in recent times?
ReplyDeleteI suspect the writers brought up thses racists so that they'll get blamed for whatever happens to Luke instead of Phelan. So I definitely see the storylines converging.
DeleteBang! Well, I didn’t expect my question to be answered quite so explosively. That was some convergence!! The Parker Bros will be obvious first suspects, although Rana has some awkward voicemail messages to explain away (blackmail anyone??)
DeleteCould Phelan kill Jude and Angie before his downfall, maybe Sinead too.
