Have Sally's sneaking suspicions done the trick in her quest to bring down Geoff? Stealing the laptop from N0.6 is one thing, but finally convincing Tim of his father’s nasty streak, well that’s a trick even Houdini would have trouble with. I’m sure Geoff has read that book but he’s not learnt about true deception! No magic trick can get him out this one - surely? Rather than letting Sally escape though, I envisaged him locking her in the box, if I’m honest. At least Sal managed to steal his laptop, but I thought Geoff had made that footage disappear? Anyway, sensing that Geoff has lax laptop security, Faye easily breaks into it and hey presto! The great magnifico’s vile abuse of Yasmeen is discovered!
At least little Lily didn’t magically disappear, what with Shona’s babysitting! The air of vulnerability lends a different side to this story and is a balance when we consider her most recent comedic ‘no filter’, scenes. It’s a balance that Corrie does well and I’m enjoying this story. What do you think? Daniel is another one who’s vulnerability is being subtly used to progress a story. As predicted a few weeks ago, I still sense that his friendship with Nicky may be leading into a relationship, but I wonder where it will lead? Is she the new Sinead, maybe?
In Dev's defence, selling the kebab house is probably a good idea. I think we can all agree he's going to need that cash for the school fees. Asha certainly needs expert tuition in feminism, if she’s serious in getting back together with that cad, Corey! The Alahan's troubles seem trivial though when compared to Leanne and NIck’s emotional plight. Arranging a trip away, I get the sense that this is either the last family trip, or it may not happen. So sad.
Less sad though, is watching jiggle it Geoff squirm as Tim tells him some home truths and the police come to arrest him.
I reckon Sally could be our next Corrie magician! I think we can guess that her next trick will be freeing Yasmeen?
