Sunday Comments, January 10

Lines of the week:

  • Steve to Becky "Things didn't go according to plan"
  • Becky to Liz "Shut it., Barbie's grandma" Liz "Dracula's Daughter!"
  • Lloyd to Steve "You passive aggressive twit!" (and he is!)
  • Eileen to Lloyd "And you wonder why you've been single for so long!"
  • Sean "What's the male equivalent of a cat fight?" (a pi$$ing contest!)
  • Ken "Maybe I'm a coward" Ted "Maybe you're not as interested in Martha as you thought you were" (No, Ken's got it right)
  • Umed having a drink "I find art more palatable when slightly out of focus"
  • Tony "You know what goes with carrots? A great big stick!"

It took Steve an awfully long time to tell Michelle to shut up and Liz tearing a strip off her in the pub after spilling the beans to Becky. Poor kid. It wasn't bad enough that she was humiliated in front of the whole pub by the one person that could rightly lord it over her. It was adding insult to injury, how stupid she felt about getting so drunk the registar wouldn't marry her and forgetting the whole thing. Steve is working hard to get Becky back and oh great! His dinner a deux ended up being a foursome with his mother and considering how not-well she and Becky have got along, it was inevitable that it was a disaster. There was no reason either couple couldn't just change tables. God, behave like adults will you all? Aw never mind, Becky and Steve are off on their non-honeymoon after all.

And Lloyd might say he's in a loving relationship with Liz but he said nothing to her and booked a boys' trip to Ibiza without even letting her know before he booked. Not like had had to ask her if it was ok, but it would have been nice if he'd kept her in the loop. I don't blame her for being upset. She wasted no time trying to get Eileen on her side but rightly, she kept well out of it. I think Liz should have borrowed Poppy's rubber gloves to give Lloyd a taste of the airport security for his punishment!

Aw poor Sophie, isn't it awful being a teenager and your parents show up to meet your friends! At least Kevin and Sally can see that the teens are being well supervised. Sally and Kevinstill think Sophie's doing the church thing to be with her friends, not for a genuine reason. Nice to see Sophie talk about her doubts with Emily. Sian has a crush on Ryan and he's a couple of years older. That's a lot at that age. She seems so naive. One little kiss and he's wanting her to "go somewhere" though i'm sure he's not that aggressive. Looks like Natasha has taken a fancy to Tony and she overheard Luke tell the worker bees that it doesn't look like Carla is coming back. Looks like she's on a mission and when you persue a man with that much focus, and considering the man and his circumstances, it can only end in tears. And between the idea of losing control at the factory and Natasha coming on strong via text, and seeing Rosie from behind and thinking she was Carla, Tony is starting to have anxiety attacks. What's his solution? A private investigator who looks like a Basset hound. He looks like the type of PI that takes mucky photos of cheating husbands and wives rather than business espionage.

Oh Gail!!!! Desperation isn't pretty, woman! Letting Joe move back in and letting him use Sarah's room? You just know she figures once she gets him back under her roof, she'll have him back in her bed before long. The sad thing is, she's probably right. David went spare, as expected and chucked Joe's stuff down the stairs. It's all about him. Gail is right to stand up to David because it's none of his business. He might have better luck if he talked to her about his concerns like an adult instead of having a temper tantrum, but even so... she's wrong about Joe. I think he's a loser. David went sulking off to his father's. I guess he figures his mother will come crawling. she won't, you know. Now, Joe's going to get tangled up in loan sharks. You can see where this is going can't you?

Luke and Tony are most definitely at odds. Tony seems to be passive aggressive and Luke isn't bothering to keep Tony up to speed and it's going to cost them money if it keeps up. Luke's apparently buying out Carla making him the boss officially. Will Tony put up with it because he's not best pleased. Carla's also given Maria her share of Ladrags. Sounds like she's really cutting all ties.

You would think the builder that wants the kitchens would be the one that buys all the supplies for the kitchens. Joe shouldn't have to, should he? Speaking of builders, Bill's business might be in a slump but Audrey wants her money back, the money she loaned him to buy the yard in the first place.

Norris only got an hour and a half up the road. He used the excuse that the nursing home called but it wasn't an emergency. He just jumped on it and made Mary come back. Eileen's back and everyone in the cab office is leaving! Tara's plowing through Dev's money and Umed isn't happy about it. The gallery opens, and man, Jason sure got that renovated and ready in record time didn't he? In fact, he seems to have worked miracles. That was one of Dev's empty shops but it seems to be awfully large with various rooms! Umed creeps me out with his flirting with every woman in the pub and on the Street! Seriously though, i think he might have a point about Tara. I think she jumped into the gallery without really thinking about it. None of the photos have sold yet and Dev is doing the typical Dev thing, manipulating and lying and getting someone to buy some photos to make Tara feel better when the whole thing is going to end up a big loss.

How long has there been a side door to exit the Rovers and where is it? It must be in the kitchen. Cornflakes with a whiskey chaser for breakfast? Peter!!! He's not coping as well as he says he is no matter what he tells Deirdre. And Michelle's sudden absence didn't improve his mood. He was probably gagging for a drink and he probably has a stash in the office anyway. Shouldn't Minnie be wearing some sort of net around that long hair while working in the kebab shop?
