CORONATION STREET As Angeloh languishes in her
prison cell Hayleh decides to do her friend a good deed by telling
the police she posted that letter from Sheffield. Eeeh, she's got
about as much sense as her husband, that one! So Hayleh's arrested
too and could end up being constantly manhandled by fellas in
uniform (aah, I see her cunning plan).
Anyway, Angeloh confesses and will stand trial for Tommeh's murder.
Am I the only one hoping she'll stand in the dock, pointing at her
shaking daughter screaming, "she did it, SHE did it!"?
Steve has a date with Louise so Traceh decides to seduce Nathan,
much to her dad's annoyance. Honestly, he's only been in her life
five minutes what right does he have to change the fact that she's
a money-grabbing, manipulative and self-centred tramp? That's Ken's
job. But Ken's stopped sulking and even invites the dying
ex-husband to his wedding. Yes, they're heading up the aisle
again.
Chesneh, meanwhile, is worried about going to Spain so Roy and
Hayleh help him learn some of the lingo. All it'll take is, "mi
madre es un idiota" and the locals will understand everything. But
Chesneh has other plans that include getting a passport photo
organised for Schmeichel.
EMMERDALE Matthew knows the way to an Australian
barmaid's heart and cooks Sunday lunch for her and her foolish
fella. Here's hoping kangaroo's on the menu. She's trying to be
faithful but as ever it's proving increasingly difficult for the
floozy not to play at Home and Away.
Paddy and Viv, meanwhile, are struggling with their feelings for
each other (well, each to their own) and, after kicking Shadrach
out of the shop, they give into their passion (but is it enough
time for Paddy to stop doing his Peter Kay impersonation?).
Laurel and Ashley are having no such luck and even judging the
baking competition makes things rise that shouldn't. But we all
know that after a few glasses of wine Ashley's anyone's.
EASTENDERS Johnny Allan's name is dropped in every
house in Walford as the writers expect him to save the sinking
soap. Remember when Jimmy Corkhill carried that burden? Anyway,
he's bickering with his cardboard girlfriend, annoyed that his
daughter is drunk and out-acting the rest of the cast, and having
Billy run more errands than a decent gangster should ask.
