Welcome to your first visit to tonight's Corrie double. I've been in meetings all day in Manchester (ironically) so I've managed to avoid all the saccharine social media 'valentines day' posts. Can the same be said for tonight's trip down Weatherfield ?.
It's fair to middling if I'm honest.
Following Bethany's sacking, Craig takes her flowers as a PC peace offering. Bethany refuses and the flowers end up in the bin. Is it the end for this already lacklustre relationship?.
Seeking solace in her mother Sarah, Bethany decides to play cupid for her Mum and Aidan. But with Aidan having a Kidney operation next week, will his heart really be beating for a new romance?.
A vengeful Adam is hardly feeling the love either. Having been unceremoniously dumped by Eva, the solicitors 'drugging the vicar' plan appears to be in full swing, but at who's expense?. Billy and Summer appear truly lost without Todd. Summer tries her best to help Billy, but her 'Cinderella' act has her losing his drugs instead of a slipper. Before long she's ostracised by her school friends, and her teacher is being harassed by granny Geraldine. With Billy suddenly 'missing', Summer misses the school bus home. Will she accept a lift from a stranger?.
Maybe she could choose to run instead, as the whole street appears be taking time out to do a charity fun run, on a Wednesday afternoon (?). The 'Run For Your Wife' competition is tonight's comedy compensation. Only Mary could have me laughing out loud, warming up the residents like 'Mr Motivator' and screeching at Michelle. Brilliant corrie! and the daft fancy dress outfits are again paraded. But where's Dev in his wig?
Is was, of course, some light relief amidst tonight's protruding darkness. As Billy's all-consuming drug dependency sinks deeper, is an overdose the 'wake up' call he needs?. If Eva isn't his saviour, could the streets new GP come to the vicar's aid?.
That's me done for another week, I'm off to 'Run For My Wife' down Victoria Street- Happy Valentines day all!
Follow my pal @Glenn_Writes as he reviews tonight's 8.30pm episode and finds out what happens next!
