Here we go with April in our look back at this year month by monthIf you'd like a full synopsis of everything that happened this month in Corrie, you can read the Corrie weekly updates website and our blogger Tvor's State of the Street for each month

This blog post is purely my own highlights and lowlights for each month of the year so far.  These are my own personal likes and dislikes for Corrie so do chip in with your own and remind me of anything major I've missed that happened during each month too.

So here we go with April 2012

Highlights

One of the saddest stories of the year... Betty Williams passes away and son Gordon Clegg returns to Coronation Street to break the news.

Terry Duckworth returns when news of Tommy's windfall from grandad Horton reaches him.

Ken helps out on the Streetcars switch when Fat Brenda goes on her bikini body bootcamp.

Audrey and David fight over the salon causing poor Audrey to have a heart attack.

Carla grits her teeth and bears it when Sally offers to buy half the factory. "In a lot of ways," says Sally, "I'm the answer to Carla's prayers."

Eileen's at her wits end when Paul's wife Eileen, who has early-onset Alzheimer's Disease, goes missing.

Little Simon comes out with the classic question to Carla: "What's a black widow?" when he's caught up in a custody battle between Leanne and Peter.
 
Julie finds out she's not pregnant after all and gets the vey sad news she's got a growth on her ovary.

Norris, Mary, Roy and Anna stage a sit-in at Terry Duckworth's lapdancing club Se7enth Hea7en and sing the wonderful Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody.

Lowlights

Stella takes Karl back.
 


Sean becomes the recipient of Betty's secret hotpot recipe. Sean?
