Lines of the week:

  • Jack to Vera "I've said something nice about your bosoms haven't I? Make do, woman!"
  • Audrey to Ashley "How's tricks?" (I was hoping he'd say "Oh she's fine!" *snork*)
  • Cilla snarling at the Ex-husbands "What are you looking at?" George (Ivor?) "I don't know, the label's fallen off!" (i'm going to have to remember that one!)

Happy Anniversary, Jack and Vera! I bet neither one thought they'd get this far at times! What a shame Ty wasn't there to celebrate with them. At least he was mentioned. Not sure what the point of putting Vera in the car to drive 12 feet to the Rovers was. (I do know that in real life, Liz Dawn has emphesyma and it's quite bad. That's why she's been sitting down for the past few months in all her scenes so i suppose it's to do with that but why couldn't they just have shown them in the pub rather than doing the car thing? tsk) Awww but Jack made a lovely speech and even sang to her. He does love his little swampduck, really. It did make some of the older widows think about their lost loved ones. Meanwhile, Paul has stolen some documents from the tin and seems to be now known as Mr. Duckworth to get a loan against number 9 (he never had TErry's name, just in case you were wondering, his name is Clayton). Where have I seen this plot before? Oh yes, nearly 20 years ago when Alan Bradley stole papers and pretended to be Len Fairclough to get a mortgage against number 7. Looks like Leanne won't give him away though. It's all about the cash. seems like he got the money awfully quickly, didn't he? Ah you gotta love tv!

So David did pass the one exam he sat and with flying colours just to stick the knife in to Gail (Oops, sorry... i suppose that's in bad taste considering last week he told Jason he wanted her dead). I doubt he'll go back to school in the fall though. David is just compltely out of control now. He's thoroughly miserable and thoroughly dislikeable now. If Gail doesn't throw some tough love his way soon, he'll be lost. David also seems to really have thrown Jason for a loop.

Yanno, if a man doesn't want to be involved in planning a wedding, don't make him! If he doesn't want to know, you get to do it your way and he doesn't have a say. Why the heck is Cilla parading Frank around the Street for? Looks like she decided to take his job offer to be his personal care worker.

Jerry's all excited about his date with Eileen and thankfully Jodie convinced him to change shirts. The hard way. :) Not much better, though, the second shirt. You couldn't tell where Jerry ended and the tablecloth began! Aw but they seemed to get along pretty well. Yay for Eileen handling the yobs in the kebab shop! Jerry's second date with Eileen cost him more than it would have if he'd just taken her out somewhere! And they did go out... to the shed to escape the kids he'd paid off to stay away! Brilliant scene, though, showing off and taking the mick out of Gail! You'd almost think she was jealous!

Ashley seems to be going off Casey so that wasn't exactly the affair to remember was it? Just enough to put a major dent in his marraige though. Casey says she's going away, hoping i suppose, to put herself out of reach so that Ashley will come running after her? And after it seems to be over, that's when Audrey finally decides someone has to tell Claire except she didn't really. She alluded to it but wouldn't a real friend just tell her outright? IT's weird, Casey says she's selling her flat and going away and Ashley says he's choosing Claire but Casey also seems to beleive that she's going to be with Ashley. But she's leaving. Isn't she? For the first time in months Matt Ramsden was mentioned and Ashley's actually let Josh go overnight? or so it seems. Plot device, clearly. I wonder how thick Claire is actually. Comes back finally, finds Casey there, finds out she stayed the night and cleaned her house. Any more obvious? Telling Casey that she'll be brilliant when she has a family of her own... that's pretty mean considering Casey lost a child. I've never sat through anything so agonizing. It was staring Claire in the face. She was even suspicious and asked him outright and yet when Ashley lied to her, she believed him. I could smack sense into Claire, i really could. And one for Ashley just for good measure. The truth is going to come out of course and Ashley's going to pay for it big time. He's now trying to get shot of her but she won't go. Is she going to turn into some sort of Fatal Attraction nutcase? Stay tuned! It all hits the fan next week!

Steve gets to meet the parents. AT least this time he's taking Amy. I wonder if he's got frequent flier points? Ok, are we ever going to find out which woman Norris fancies? Oh as if you didn't know it was Rita! That's just a given isn't it, though it might have been funnier if it had been Doreen. Aw Hayley's lost her Auntie Monica. Um, Emily and Norris were going to the pub to meet Doreen. How come she came out of Emily's house?
