Coronation Street Episode Review; Weds 4th Dec 8.30 pm


Fall-outs, accusations, shocks, and comedy crisps! - it can only be a Corrie wedding!

Following Michelle's very public humiliation, Ryan and Ali try and accost Robert, only for Robert to confronted by Tyler, asking where Vicky is?


Back on the street, Paul has run out of the community centre, visibly upset at having admitted his abuse to the factory girls.  Later on, the factory girls reciprocate Paul's painful honesty, by having a good gossip about him in the pub!. It serves them right to be caught by Bernie and Gemma until they all realise that Paul is missing!.. for the ad break at least. He soon turns up at Roys Rolls to be greeted by a search party (aka family, factory girls & Billy). Slight panic aside, Paul tells the search party that he's decided to give evidence against Kel and looks towards closure.


Doesn't Ken seem to have recovered very quickly from pneumonia? I mean he's only 80 years old and its winter, but no worry for our Ken, as he's out of the hospital and back supporting Daniel in his grief-stricken solitude. Did he even ask how his Dad was feeling, did he 'eck!  I suppose we can forgive him for being self-absorbed though, albeit completely lost, and unshaven. Even Adam struggles to get Daniel out of the flat to go to Amy's play. He's still languishing in inconsolable grief and watching Sinead on the laptop.

It's still so sad to watch, isn't it? A toughie but one of my 2019 highlights, as Corrie slowly brings the year to a close. 


TRACY BARLOW !! (my ultimate corrie female) has also returned from holiday and is quick to get up to speed with the gossip from Steve and Amy. Seb offers the 'Bryan maiden' gig tickets to a bemused Emma and narrowly averts a comedic scalding from her Dad, Steve.  I am soo glad to see Tracy back, but where is Liz? AND if Ken was ill, why didn't Tracy come back from her holiday early? It seems to be a night of returns as the (seldom-seen) Battersby sisters are at the pub offering sincere condolences and commiserations to Michelle. And, as Paul Winter has decided to face his troubles, Summer has decorated the flat, ready for Christmas! We've got Summer getting things ready for Winter! I did chuckle... was it just me?


Back at The Rovers, Tyler confronts Robert with wild accusations about the previous nights' skirmish and heated argument with Vicky. In front of the whole pub, Robert feels cornered by the residents and the wild words are banded around. Is Robert guilty of killing Vicky, or are Michelle and Vicky in cahoots for the ultimate revenge?.


After his second very public attack of the day, Robert sits in his van and has full-on steering wheel rage! It reminds me of when Pat Phelan did the same thing, upon realising that Vinnie had stolen all of their ill-gotten cash.

It's got me thinking...

Is this foreshadowing, is Robert about to be completely fleeced?

Ultimately, I feel there's a big twist in this storyline, that's yet to come...

What did you think to this Wednesdays Corrie? let us know in the comments section.

Coronation Street Episode Review; Weds 13th Nov 7.30 pm


Say what you want about Corrie in 2019, but one thing you can't fault them on is continuity...

Sinead's cancer diagnosis and subsequent tragic death were bookended by children's book classic 'Were going on a bear hunt' and Gary's loanshark logbook has longstanding in his recent turn to the dark side. For those of us that relish in such detail (me), it's a nice touch. I  also remember writing the episode review when Vicky gave Robert a 'big daddy' dog tag, some months ago, and didn't think any more of it; until Monday night that is. This tacky father-to-be gift made a reprisal, at Robert's bedside, following his monumental Macclesfield car crash.


For some months we've watched Michelle fall for his ridiculous lies, yet it's only now and with the reappearance of the tag, and his 'baby' mumbles whilst on morphine, that Michelle's slowly become aware of Robert's duplicitous behaviour? Even in scrubs and severely injured, Robert still manages to lie to Michelle, when a nurse remembers him from the maternity visits, and he sneakily hides the daddy dog tag! Conning whilst convalescing!
I've enjoyed this storyline if I'm honest and It's nothing to do with the gorgeous Kerry Quinn (Vicky) and THAT accent! she's brilliant, isn't she?

We know Robert and Michelle are soon departing, but PLEASE can we keep Vicky on the street?


Talking of gorgeous bolshy brunettes, Carla's concern with Roy's scrabble brain and his half-brother is also nice to see. Back to 100% Carla best, she's even covering the Bistro for Michelle whilst Robert recuperates. Dragging Roy back to Richard's (Malcolm from WATCHING) flat, his brother has a visit from a Nurse, and it's revealed he has a terminal breathing condition. Roy reveals himself as 'Batman' (online scrabble name) and it seems Richard is pleased for the company.  His daughter Nina though is less than impressed, the goth clothes are a slight giveaway. It's been years since the street had a goth (if you remember Rosie & Craig) it's nice to see a new one!


Back on Coronation Street, Steve struggles to live with both his daughters. Busy badgering Amy for restarting a friendship with Tyler, Emma is left playing peace-maker. There's little peace for Tyler though, as a panicked Vicky decides to head back to the hospital for a check-up.


Also seeking peace, Bernie badgers Gemma and Chesney into the fresco deal to cover her £500 hotel mini-bar bill. Agreeing to talks with the supermarket, Weatherfield's finest food supplier offers them a £50K quad marketing deal!! It's quids in for the quads!

Arriving at the hospital, Vicky sees the nurse (who earlier recognised Robert) and heads straight to his bedside. Luckily, Michelle is elsewhere, but how long can Robert keep this up?

More from me with the 8.30 pm episode review, and maybe we can find out.

Coronation Street Episode Review; Weds 31 July 7.30pm


Cheating chef Robert is simultaneously spinning two plates; reigniting his romance with Michelle, whilst playing keen Dad to Vicky's growing bump. As Michelle caters for the youth awards, (of which Vicky's son Tyler is a nominee), can Robert keep his two favourite dishes apart?

Jenny has grand designs on changing The Rovers Return and decides to unleash a questionnaire to the regulars. Disregarding Tracy's idea to ditch Emma from the bar staff, Jenny suddenly decides to turn the upstairs room into a B and B. Ed promises to visit her later for an estimate. 

Meanwhile, Kate is meeting up for a drink with her old flame/friend, Imogen.

Seb continues his stake-out on the dodgy nail bar and questions Jan about Alina and her dire living arrangements. Paying them another visit, Seb then threatens the nail bar owner with that he knows. Later, and after a chat with Jan, Rachel makes a call to an associate, it looks like there could be trouble for love struck Sebastian.

Out on the street, Abi announces to Kev and Tim that she has landed a job with a rival garage.

Visiting Vicky, Robert does the doting father-to-be act, and successfully persuades her to not attend the hotel awards event.  Later, Michelle and the catering team realise that Ray has increased guest numbers (again) causing Alya to into blind panic. In amongst the rush, Robert fails to notice Tyler arriving with Vicky.


At No. 1 Claudia tells Ken that she's got nowhere to live now her house sale has gone through,. Realising that Ken's place is awash with clutter, can she persuade Ken to tidy up in his kimono, Marie Kondo style? Retrieving a box of Deirdre's glasses, Claudia picks the wrong time to try a pair on, just as Tracy walks in!

Kate confides in Imogen about missing Rana, and Imogen decides to invite Kate on a £3K travelling expedition, but she's skint. Seeking cash from Johnny, Kate realises that Jenny is also keen to spend Johnny's cash by renovating The Rovers!

Abi tells Tim that she's settling into the new garage, but admits to Eileen that she's actually got the sack, after injuring her new boss.


Back at the awards ceremony, Robert panics as Vicky seems to be sipping prosecco, and finally persuades her to leave. With subtle manhandling and a friendly embrace, it looks like he's managed to hide Vicky from Michelle's gaze, only to bump into his ex (and Vicky's one-time nemesis), Tracy Barlow!

It looks like Robert has smashed those plates he was spinning!

Be back here later for my 8.30 episode review, to find out what happens next!
