As a middle-aged man, I can’t pretend to show interest in the teenage storylines of Coronation Street and I'm certainly not their core audience for it either! However, Kelly Neelan's return does mean that gangster Gary Windass is back and THAT I am interested in.
Yasmeen’s arrest has also set the cat amongst the pigeons and opinions about her innocence/guilt remain divided. Tim’s on tenterhooks and his allegiance to his Father remains undiluted. Cathy and Eilleen share notes and appear to come to some conclusions about Geoff’s controlling behaviour though?
With Geoff in hospital, we are treated to a great shot of the forensics team surveying the crime scene. What are the chances of them finding the CCTV system? I'm 99% certain that the camera set-up will be his downfall. Do you have any theories?
He may now be awake but I do wonder if Geoff will fully recover from the violent attack? Alya's vengeful attitude is made very clear at the hospital, and in front of the police too! I do like Alya and always have. I hope she gets Geoff sent down?
Talking of which, some kid's congregating outside Roy's are giving Asha grief so Nina punches one of them in the face! For some reason, we don't see her being arrested or carted off by the police?
Gary’s quick to defend Kelly, and of course, Adam Barlow witnesses the action and finds out that Kelly is Rick's daughter. The honeymoon hasn't slowed this vendetta! This Youth Outreach programme seems slightly contrived yet does string a few storylines together so all is forgiven.
Can Barlow bring down Windass or will Gary bring down his own demise? Gary is constantly hanging around people connected to the guy he murdered so I do wonder!
Although any animosity seems to have cleared between co-parents Steve and Leanne, a health worker has raised some concerns about Oliver’s development. I don't do spoilers, however, I think we can expect a serious storyline to come out of this!
