Tonight, Billy apologised to Summer for his overreaction and parental panicking. Billy also forgives her boyfriend for his class-c indiscretion, but pseudo-parent Paul can't shift his anger. For Aaron, the problems only worsen when his drunken Dad rocks up at the garage seeking his weed back. As Maria and Fiz tell Tyrone about seeing Tim in his morning glory, the jovial atmosphere is shattered, when Aaron's drunk Dad threatens his son and Tyrone, but Kev soon sends him packing! Kev knows all about alcohol and drug abuse!
Later on, after returning from home, Aaron arrives back on the street to meet Summer and shows her some more bruises, particularly a huge one on his wrist. Paul (ex-jailbird) continues to take his bizarre moral high ground and confronts Aaron about the space cakes, grabbing him on the wrist, and the lad retaliates by punching him one. Billy tries to calm his ex-boyfriend down, and Kevin reluctantly accepts the lad's apology for bringing drugs to the garage. With Aaron admitting the abuse to Billy, Billy relays the info to Paul who decides not to press charges! Later, Paul tells Aaron it may be best to end the relationship with Summer.
Meanwhile, Tim gets ready to celebrate his wedding anniversary! Pretending he’s forgotten the big day, Sally storms off in a huff, and Tim (wearing only a dressing gown) runs out in the street, giving Mary and Fiz a bit of morning glory. Luckily, 'the mouse was still in the house!' - Mary is comedy gold!! Later, Tim catches up with Sally telling her he hadn't forgotten - giving her the gift which Aggie helped him choose. They make up with a hug, which Aggiei sees, she smiles at the loved-up twosome. Later, Tim meets Aggie in Victoria Garden, and thanks her for her help - giving her a gift too. It's a slow burner but, I think we can guess where this is going, right? Later, Sally arranges a special night for Tim, as a thank you.
Elsewhere in the romance stakes, Ken and Wendy 'Flamin’ Crozier (that's her official title) rekindle that early 1990s flame, as they both realise they’ve been harbouring feelings for each other. Amy finds out (where are Tracy and Steve, by the way?) and promises to keep things a secret from her Mum. Mary isn't best pleased though as Wendy’s presence is causing ructions in the am-dram group (that Yoko line was brilliant). With the romance rekindled, Wendy decides it's best to resign from ‘Roxanna’. Brian also promises to keep their secret too, and Mary becomes the plays leading lady. I love this storyline - it is Classic Coronation Street, in all its glory.
Over as Speed Daal, Alya is still helping Stu via sneaky DNA mug testing which she's still trying to hide from Zee and Dee-Dee. Dee-Dee and Ayla have become great friends, she tells her that she's not returning to L.A, and she hasn't told her Aggie or Ed, either. However, she's angry tonight, when faced with another lie, finding out that Alya still wants to test the DNA on that mug even though Stu wants it over with. Still concerned by Yas and Stu’s relationship, Alya convinces Zee that her plan is still the best course of action, and he convinces Dee-Dee to go ahead with it.
Elsewhere, Max gets a great report from the PRU, Shona and David are pleased with his progression, but it's clear he is still getting bullied. David asks Brian for educational advice, and Max avoids the bad boys by helping Maria on a council jaunt.
This past week of Mary-related am-dram comedy, Daisy at the Rovers helm, new gal Dee-Dee, Bernie being brilliant, and some well-written scripts, have made Coronation Street a treat!
What are your thoughts?
