Just when you thought he couldn't get any worse!
Jiggle Geoff's extra-marital jiggling (sorry) has finally caught up with him. Blaming Yasmeen for the STI is probably as low as you can go, but being Geoff, I doubt it. Yasmeen's clap diagnosis also seems to have awoken her (finally!) to the harsh reality of her insidious husband and claustrophobic marriage. Whilst he's at the shop sourcing sauce, Yasmeen hides a bag ready for a quick exit. Being the paranoid narcissistic weirdo that he is, Geoff sees the deception on his secret security system, so of course, can use it to his advantage and heads back home. The magician that he is, I think he has a few ‘tricks’ still up to his sleeve when it comes to bullying his wife?
Returning from the grief retreat, Daniel looks refreshed, revitalised, and suitably shorn! Do you remember the days when we could get our haircut? The wife has cut mine this week, it looks fabulous - honest! Anyway, I digress. Has Daniel recovered sufficiently or is it just a front? It wasn't that long ago he was downing the booze and drowning in sorrow, hard thing to shake is grief. What do we think?
Dev bows to pressure deciding to try persuading the school to stand down the viral video scandal. It's a joy to watch Dev and Asha’s Father/Daughter relationship yet I think she may still need that motherly maternal figure - Mary perhaps? And what do we think of Kelly then? It's pretty obvious that she’s going to be hanging around the street for a bit, and of course, being Rick’s daughter, she’s a suitable ruse for maybe bringing down murderer/gangster Gary Windass?
Maria’s sudden curiosity is quite surprising considering her usual dimness but Gary's obfustication works rather well. Kelly seems to have found a companion in good girl Summer, and fearing homelessness for her newly found foe, Billy offers Kelly a roof over her head. How big is that flat? Funny how Geoff mentioned the tardis, plenty of Coronation Street houses seem smaller on the outside! Talking of which, Ken tells Tracy he isn't going to sell N0.1 after all. So I wonder where everyone will live now?
Back home, Geoff makes it clear to Yasmeen that he knows what she was planning to do and decides to set her baggage on fire! It surprised me actually as I thought Geoff was going to lock Yasmeen back up in his magic box? Sally sees the embers of fire burn and spies Yasmeen looking sullen. Can Sally save her mother-in-law from domestic violence?
