Time Lord award: Will managed to drug, tie up and put Michelle in the boot of her car just after Michelle dropped he and Maria off for a meal in town. How did he manage that? She'd only just ordered that one drink she had when it was drugged. She couldn't have nursed it *that* long. He must have had a TARDIS to move around his own timeline to accomplish that.
Plot Hole fail: Michelle's in the boot of a car in a city centre parking garage and making lots of noise most of the night. No cars around. No people around. I've been in Manchester carparks like that and they're jam packed all the time not to mention the CCTV all over the place. And how come someone was able to open the boot without a key so easily?
The Fourth Wall award: Knowing Will is the bad guy is going to make us watch all his smarmy moves while heavy duty cringing and very loudly shouting "You Ratbag" at the screen, isn't it?
Musical ambiance: "Living on a Prayer" on the radio at the building site when Gary is sacked. "What's Love Got To Do With It" while Liz and Steve were discussing the lack of chemistry between he and Leanne.
Friends and Lovers award: While Steve and Leanne don't have the all-encompasing passion, they do have the friendship and being friends with your lover will take you a lot further.
Lines of the week:
Priest "It's called the Seal of the Confessional. Kind of like What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas"
Sally about Dev "He's so not your type" Gina "He's rich. He's my type" Sally "got a pulse, you mean"
Dev "There's nothing worse than the smell of a desperate middle aged woman" (ow!!)
Mary "The twins have picked out your favourite DVD" Dev "That's a bit inappropriate, honey" Mary "Not from your secret stash...it's The Long Good Friday" (superb timing, Patti and Jimmi!)
Steve to Liz "I think I might be engaged to her"
Leanne "I think I might be engaged to Steve McDonald"
Todd to Rosie "You have many qualities but you have zero experience" (Oh yes, she does. She was Carla's PA.)
Yasmeen "Men want to be needed. Which can be very irritating if you're a strong woman"
Tracy to Steve "If you want to marry Leanne, marry Leanne. I want you to be happy. And if Leanne Battersby with her skinny legs and less-than-C-cup breasts makes you happy, I say go for it"
Eva to Leanne "We've all done stuff with beer goggles on we wouldn't do when we're sober"
Tracy "You were drunk last time and you were trying to stick one to Michelle by sticking one to Leanne"
Todd about "Elle Woods" "That's where I've heard the name before. Legally Blonde, or in your case, Illegally Blonde."
Todd "We need a PA not a PI"
Steve to Liz "I wish you'd stop casting aspersions on my manhood!"
Tracy to Steve "Do you want me to include a sick bucket with your bouquet or are you going to provide your own?"

Will is really creepy. And is this really all about her turning him down? Why now instead of when it happened? Weird storyline seemingly just to add something to the Rich story.
I think Will really wanted to be with Michelle last year but she chose Steve. Then he finds out she left Steve but didn't go to him, she went to Robert and he's obviously still obsessed.
some good lines with Billy and Summer in the café this week too!
