A Friday episode on a Friday, now here is a novelty. We soon get the news that Tracy will be alright following her codeine overdose. Steve finds a disused packed of the said drug in furtive looking Cassie's cardy and even he manages to put two and two together. Steve summons Ty as Steve worked out that Cassie had used Tyrone's drug supply and whilst the dosage she used was merely intended to distort the readings of Ross's medical tests at the prison Tracy seems to have had a much higher dosage. In any event Ross manages to come out of it all smelling of roses as he does the child minding whilst the adults sort themselves out. Ty has had enough of the drama his mother creates and she must leave his house. She is already touring as Miss Hannigan in Annie - so in case she has gone by this time next week I hope I can say that I really hope Cassie can come back some time in the future, our screens will be poorer for her absence.
Betsy makes it home from hospital with Debbie providing some useful thoughts as she arrives. As it has turned out nice in Manchester today, Betsy, Lisa, Lauren, Carla and Ryan are in their garden with Lisa concerned at the noise coming from next door where Debbie, Sally, Bernie, Fiz, Christina and Mary (but sadly no Glenda) are being loud, slightly alcohol infused and being served fresh pizzas by Tim from the brand new pizza oven which Sally and Tim have bought. Mary is taking every opportunity to remind Christina of her bad behaviour and all is going well otherwise until Debbie fails to recognise Tim as he delivers pizza and tells him to go away.
Mary had been hoping for a naked statue of Ben Shepard but as no-one knows what it is Sally has to tell them it is a pizza oven. The ladies explain who Tim is but Debbie is obviously shocked by her own failure. It looks like another book fell off the library shelf. Debbie finishes her drink and then swears off alcohol, she is going teetotal.
Eventually Ryan, Carla et al get Lisa to see that she is being slightly too much like a helicopter and needs to back off a bit. She says she gets it.
In other news Nina is still missing her tips. Nina asks her to be diplomatic when Sienna arrives so within 1 second of her arrival Nina is asking about the mislaid money. Sienna stomps off. Later Asha (looking for codeine) opens a drawer containing a brown envelope with all the money in it where Nina must have put it. Oh dear lots of spilt milk to be sucked up.
Cassie pleads with Steve but he hands her the cardy and slams the door in her face. She has nowhere left to go.
In big news tonight Dorin spoke twice. Also Hope is clearly the brainbox in the family as she knows how fast the Polish economy is growing. Ruby is not impressed that Hope can learn her lessons. Some great lines tonight - Tim is like the Swedish muppet chef and Steve wagering his life on Cassie not being the poisoner. Carla not wanting to eat the rear end of a lime green caterpillar left over from Frankie's second birthday party.
In other news Daisy has moved. She popped off to the Midlands to create Amber in "The Archers" before leaving so Amber could get pregnant (her replacement is not so good at squealing). Daisy Charlotte Jordan has stayed in the Midlands and is now an apprentice hairdresser / murder mystery solver supporting Sally Philips in the Hairdresser Mysteries. See you next week.
