FRIDAY 27TH SEPTEMBER - hour-long episode
PAUL CAN’T ESCAPE MEMORIES OF THE PAST Paul flies off the handle at Billy in the cafe, arguing that although he had underage sex, he gave full consent. Billy retorts that, at fourteen, he was too young to consent. Paul storms off. Billy’s horrified to see Kel bringing Joseph home from school in his car so invites Joseph to join him and Summer for tea. Paul’s on the verge of opening up when Bernie interrupts. Later, Billy’s puzzled to see Paul in the Rovers playing happy families with Bernie, Kel, Gemma and Chesney. When Bernie hands around old photos, it dawns on Paul how young he really was in comparison to adult Kel. Billy tracks down a shocked Paul to Victoria Street. As he knocks back vodka, Paul admits all sorts of things he’s been blocking out are flooding back. Billy explains he was groomed and abused but Paul insists he loved Kel. As Paul breaks down, Billy’s rocked by the depth of his denial.
FIZ IS PUT ON THE SPOT Gary offers Fiz a job at his furniture shop after hearing of her and Tyrone’s money woes. Fiz is flattered but regrets she has to stay at home to teach Hope. Fiz goes to the pub and furtively answers her mobile, telling the caller she needs and misses them. Entering the Rovers, Tyrone overhears and demands to know who she’s talking to.
AMY FORCES ASHA INTO A CONFESSION Asha performs well at her school singing audition. But when the drama teacher hands out sleeveless dresses for the dance trials, Asha panics and flees. Realising Amy thinks she’s self-harming, Asha confesses she’s had a bad reaction to a cream she’s using to lighten the colour of her skin. Amy threatens to snitch to Dev if Asha doesn’t stop using the cream.
ELSEWHERE Imran points out the parallel to Rick going missing after dealings with Gary. Shona visits David again and is incensed to learn of Max’s suspension and rows with Shona for keeping secrets from him. David phones Shona to apologise, saying he’d be lost without her. Leanne gives Max a pep talk. Izzy receives a call from Derek to say he’s returned to his wife.

It never ceases to amaze me that even though Corrie characters have money problems they continue to drink in the Rovers.
