Big story this week has got to be Yasmeen finally seeing Geoff for the nasty piece he is. She discovers his password for the laptop and rifles through his emails only to find that Geoff’s been using an escort service. Wait until she finds out that he’s been using her money to pay for it, too! Yasmeen can’t find any evidence of Geoff booking a hotel in Spain for Zeedan’s wedding, as he said he had. Finally… Yasmeen confronts Geoff and in a twisted scene, Geoff begs Yasmeen not to leave him, he crumples, deflates and you just know in that instant there’s something not right in his mind, in his head, in his very being. And still you want to kick him in the nuts. Anyway, Yasmeen tells him she’s leaving for Spain on her own. She packs her bag and tries to leave but Geoff stands in the doorway with his arm blocking her way.
Elsewhere, David goes off the rails this week reeling from the news that Shona wants a divorce. He goes drinking and gets mugged by a gang of lads who pull a knife on him. Then he speaks to Imran who gives him free legal advice and tells David that he and Shona can’t divorce as they’ve not been married a year yet. I didn’t know that, did you? Every day’s a school day! David apologies to Alina for using her and the two of them agree to be friends.
Over at Stillwaters, Ken’s incensed to be fined by Charles for professional cleaning of the carpet after Eccles’ little mistake. So when Ken finds the usual cleaner doing the work instead of the professional company he’s been charged for, her tackles Charles who doesn’t like it one bit. He likes it even less when Ken sets himself up as a challenger to Charles’ authority in the retirement community. Let’s get ready to rumble.
Some good news this week at the hospital when baby Aled gets a hearing aid and his little face lights up at the sound of Gemma and Chesney’s voice. A lovely little scene. Bernie’s doing her best around the house but it’s clearly not enough and Cathy takes her to task for skiving when she should be giving Gemma much more help.
Emma and Seb split up over Alina and Emma moves in to No. 1 with Steve, Tracy and Amy. However, Emma’s going to be left home alone when the Barlow’s head to Scotland to visit Beth and Daniel and little Bertie who are up there on the grief retreat.
And that’s just about that for this week.

How on earth is Beth able to afford her accommodation in Scotland if she is not working?
ReplyDeleteThese things seem to get glossed over, don't they?
ReplyDeleteLike cars suddenly appearing appearing on the street only when the characters want to use them.
And Yasmeen deciding to go to Spain when Geoff has her bank cards.
Where is Emma sleeping at the Barlow's? Doesn't Peter have the front room?
ReplyDeleteE in Canada
Gemma should stop wearing those ridiculous earrings the babies will grab them.
ReplyDeleteIt drives me crazy when she stands in the living room shouting and then wonders why the babies wake up.
Re: the divorce, the one year thing also came up when Becky tricked Steve and Tracy into marriage. It may not be real world real, but it’s Corrie real.
