Coronation Street Epsiode Review Monday 26th June
Adam has got dressed in his suit and his shoes, and greased back his hair just to make breakfast? Maybe Sam Robertson has it written into his contract that he doesn't have to do any dressing gown shots or scenes where he's ironing a shirt in his boxers. He thinks he has won the Battle of the Brylcreem with Damon, but unfortunately Mr Hay has left a leaving gift in Sarah's tummy, to no-one's surprise since contraception is a vague concept on t'Street. Sarah is not sure who the baby-daddy is; she wants it to be Adam's so much that she says she will have an abortion if a DNA test shows it to be Damon's. In amongst all the talk about DNA and termination, dos Sarah actually want a baby? She didn't last month. To her credit though, she did tell Adam straight away rather than stringing it out for several episodes in which he finds the pregnancy test in the bin or (yuk) down the side of the sofa. I can't see Harry taking this very well given his meltdown about Sarah being a loy-ah.
Talking of 'fessing up, Gav has been let out of pokey (sic). I think he means chokey - but anyway, yay! Let's hope he now becomes a proper character now and doesn't chain anyone to a radiator a la Graeme Proctor. Max confesses that he's been seeing Gav's girlfriend, Bec, although Bec turns out to be Sabrina, Gav's sister (!). I can see where the confusion lay since sis looks nowt like bro. Max may be an ex-racist now, but isn't it a little bit racist to assume that Gav's girlfriend would be black? Also, I think the story would have been better if Max had fallen for an Asian girl, otherwise it just seems that all non-white people are being lumped together. Racist people are quite capable of being racist against one community and not another. And didn't Gav have any pictures of Bec? Do Gen Z not have physical photos even if their phones have been taken away? Anyway, Bec Sabrina and Max are back together and all seems right in teenage world - except for the return of Weatherfield's Eva Braun, Lauren.
Someone not fessing up is Dame Maureen Lipman who won't tell Roy she wuvs him and that she's jealous of Yasmeen. TBH, Yas 'n' Roy would make a much better couple than Yas and boring Stu and I can't see Roy putting up with Evelyn for more than a couple of hours. She is outside getting soaked in the rain walking Freddie whilst Roy and Yas discuss Communism in the dry. I'm pretty sure Evelyn fancied Roy when she was first introduced, but the storyliner seemed to have parked the idea, but it's back on, baby! Oh and Evelyn says Yasmeen doesn't like dogs because she is "a catty person". I think Charlotte Brontë might take issue with that, Ev.
Bernie has left crystals behind the cheese in the florist flat's fridge in order to heal Paul. I suppose it's at least harmless, unlike buying dodgy snake oil "medication" off of the internet. Paul says he doesn't want to go to somewhere like Vegas, he just wants to do normal things. I hear you, Paul. One of the normal things is darts and Gemma persuades everyone to play with their other hand to give Paul a chance.
Oh and Jenny is going wine-tasting with Owen, which seems like a buswoman's holiday to me.
