Coronation Street Episode Review; Weds 5th June 8.30pm

Chesney recovers from his faint as Gemma struggles to take the news in. As Emma and Paul arrive at the hospital though, the reality of quads soon becomes apparent. The doctor explains to the shocked couple that they face risk of miscarriage or the option of multiple selective terminations.Grim.

Meanwhile, Freda's fuming at Norris and gives him an ultimatum; leave for Edinburgh with her or stay in Weatherfield with Mary.

Reeling from seeing Sarah on a date with Adam, Gary decides to drown his sorrows, but not before telling Bethany about what he saw. Later, Sarah defends her behaviour to her daughter and uses Gary's previous form as an excuse.

At the Rovers, Audrey is ambiguous in her decision to call the police and seeks advice from Ken and Claudia. Ultimately deciding to retract her statement, Audrey may decide to change her mind as Nick offers to commemorate Lewis's death and Audrey sees straight through his fake guilt and faux gesture.

Dev and the kids' departure is smoothed over by Mary who gives Dev some wise words about Asha's teenage tantrums. We don't know how long they're gone for but Mary promises to keep an eye on Evelyn. With Dev swiftly out of the scene, Evelyn has her feet firmly under the (shop) table.

Still reeling from their news, it seems Chesney and Gemma have some serious decisions to make. The 10-week gestation period appears paramount to a decision with the selective termination; a stage which Gemma is now at. Confiding in Paul, Chesney seems to be struggling. Paul's penguin analogy is rather sweet and though it confuses Chesney initially, it certainly drives the point home. Seeking equal solace in Emma, Gemma's heartache is palpable yet she seems as equally reluctant to have any selective terminations.

Meeting with Mary, Norris informs her that he's accepting an offer on N0.3 and marrying Freda -decision made. Mary hides her sorrow from Norris and decides to arrange him a leaving party.

At The Rovers, the war of the Platts shows no side of subsiding, and Sarah admits to Gary that she doesn't (as yet) see a way forward for the former couple. Speaking of which, Gemma and Chesney come to a mutual decision. Regardless of the risks, they decide to try and keep the quads all together. What do you think?. Let us know your thoughts!.

I shall be back same time next week for another Corrie blog episode review.

TA-RA!

Coronation Street Episode Review; Weds 05 June 7.30pm

Still looking for her smartphone, Roy rummages through Carla's mobile phone stash, in hope of finding Sarah's. Gary hangs around in the background looking a bit suspicious.

Struggling without her handset, Sarah takes out her frustration on Adam who sees this as a signal to ask her out on a date. Cementing his charm back onto the cobbles, Adam is soon smoothing David over a game of table football and is obviously trying to get into Sarah's good books.

As David and Nick continue to fight, Gail and Audrey make amends. It seems Gail has done some digging on Lewis. It turns out the old cad WAS going to propose to Audrey on the night he died. It's almost serendipitous, considering how her grandsons have disgraced her.

Dev announces that he'd like to take the kids to India, much to Asha's dismay. With Dev still looking for someone to manage the shop, Evelyn arrives just in time to spot a  shoplifter, who quickly scurries. As Dev finds his new shopkeeper, Chesney faces trouble at the kebab shop as Gemma's morning sickness becomes increasingly severe. Taking a turn for the worst, she proceeds to faint at the smell of Dev's garlic mayo and Chesney rushes her to hospital.

As a scan is undertaken, Gemma suddenly remembers that she comes from a long line of twins (I think we know where this is going).

At The Rovers, Norris tells Rita that the offers for No. 3 are coming in thick and fast but he's yet to make it up with Freda.

Dressed in black and still mourning Brendan, a maudlin Mary has also yet to forgive Norris for destroying the love letters. Rita manages to bring the duo back together, and just like any other married couple,they bicker intermittently, until Mary finally realises that Brendan was actually a bit of a g*t.

Making amends with Mary, Norris again wavers about leaving the street and grasps at Mary's hand, just as Freda walks in. Awkward! Meanwhile, Sarah and Adam are flirting over a hotpot, before being interrupted by Gary. Double awkward!

Back at the hospital, Gemma's scan reveals... twins? No, triplets? No, oh hold on, I've read about this - its quads! Chesney proceeds to faint - that's double fainting!

It's also a double for me tonight so I'll be back soon with a review of the 8.30pm episode.

Speak in a bit!.

TA-RA!
