Friday 5th April
SMOKE GETS IN CHESNEY’S EYES Chesney hurtles down the stairs to find the washing machine flooding the kitchen and an oblivious Gemma preoccupied with her headphones on. A mortified Gemma promises to buy him a replacement. In the hope of finding a cheap deal, Gemma and Paul head to Hong Kong Stuey and return home with a number of boxes, much to the curiosity of Rita. As Chesney returns home, he’s horrified to hear blaring music and see smoke billowing from under the front door. With Tyrone’s help he breaks the door down to find Gemma and Paul dancing in the living room with a new sound system, a smoke machine and Rita watching in amusement on the couch. Chesney is furious at Gemma for wasting money, and admits to Tyrone that having Gemma in the house is like having another toddler and he is unsure if they have a future.
CARLA RESOLVES TO CLEAN UP A remorseful Carla tells Johnny how sorry she is for her part in Rana’s death and how she’ll do anything to make it up to Kate, but Johnny advises her to steer clear as Kate is too fragile. Ken urges Carla to focus on the future and do something positive for the factory girls who are worried about their jobs. When Nick calls a factory meeting to speak about the future he is interrupted by Carla who is armed with a proposition which might save their jobs. After the chaos of the first memorial Kate resolves to hold another for Rana while Carla asks Yasmeen to use the community centre as a temporary factory, angering Imran. Will the service be the mark of respect Kate is hoping for? eoff his empty planter, Geoff offers Brian some gardening advice and suggests he talks to his plants.
ELSEWHERE Brian’s put out when Roy reveals that he and Wayne have done some further research into the origins of the Egyptian ring without his help. Roy’s quest for information continues when he later tells Brian he needs a few days away and is going to Portsmouth to do some further research on the ring. When Natalie comes into the barber’s demanding her money or a job, David offers her a week’s trial. On her first day Leanne calls in and recognises Natalie as Nick’s ‘solicitor’, is the game up for Nick?

The community centre as a factory? It’s the size of a matchbox!
By that picture I had hoped another roof was falling in on Gemma. Wishful thinking
What is wrong with Rita?
She seems to condone Gemma's inrresponible behaviour.
Poor Chesney!He should dump Gemma now!
It really is hard work watching Corrie. So many bland, irritating characters on show tonight. Where are the salt of the earth folk? And plenty of innuendoes that don't sit well for family viewing.
Going through the motions watching Carla getting blamed and don't care about the villain's identity. Gemma, less said the better.
Looks like I will be clearing up my evenings and the only Corrie fix I'll get is on ITV3. Sad but I don't have the patience to watch Iain MacLeod and ITV destroy a great show.
Friday observations. No customers at the barbers, and David’s horrible white bread sandwich kept expanding and contracting. Who is Brian kidding, sowing broad beans in mourner’s corner gardens? Every week there’s some low life lurking, ready to do mischief. Nick Tilley as an entrepreur? Beyond a joke.. As is Tyrone trying to break down a door on the hinge side! Love the hair transplant banter when the real life David & Tyrone have both had them. But Chesney, who still looks 14, with his top off...that’s a sorry sight.
