Nothing Fiz and Tina can say can dissuade Tyrone from pleading guilty. Going to see Kirsty probably wasn't the smartest thing to do. Kirsty complaining about how hard it's been to be a single parent? She's only been one for five minutes! Kirsty was surprised he was willing to plead guilty. He's willing to do anything, anything except come home to her. She's desperate to have him back and thinks if he comes back, everything will be like it was but we all know it won't. You can't unsay things, you can't love someone who's done all that to you. Fine. Kirsty intends on keeping Ruby  from him as a result. Why would you want him back under those circumstances, really? And nobody is willing to believe Tyrone, or it seems like it from his point of view. Deciding to run away with the baby might seem like the only solution to him but of course it's only the worst thing ever to do.

Sally might have held her ground against letting Tyrone see Ruby but Kevin got caught in the conservatory by a tearful Tyrone and couldn't help but let Ty hold the baby. Kevin doesn't know how how manipulative Kirsty can really be. I think we're about to find out how desperate Tyrone is. Sally and Kevin moan about what he did and yes, Kevin, Sally just can't get past it and I can't blame her. He wishes she'd just erase it from memory but that won't happen and I'm glad it hasn't been swept under the rug. Tina is adamant in her defence of Tyrone and got chucked out and nearly sacked. People on Coronation Street get sacked for the smallest thing and not sacked for total insubordination.

Ty you can't run away. But if you do, I'll go with you, says Fiz. Talk about making things 10 times worse. There's nobody else to babysit since Kirsty will have all her cronies with her! Oh, except Emily. Emily would have been the better choice. Nobody would have got past her but daft Sophie? Didn't have the chance, Tyrone's guilt trip on Kevin worked and he took over and let Tyrone take the baby. Fiz, naturally has to go with her. As far as you can go without a passport - Ireland. Kevin's taking the blame.

I can see that Kirsty might think Tina could be in on the baby-snatching but of course that's not what happened. The police are involved and the city is covered in CCTV yet they got away. Wait, how is the car Kirsty's? I thought Tyrone had his own car? Why on earth would he be stupid enough to go off with Kirsty's car, adding grand theft auto to it? Standing in the ferry ticket office, full of tv cameras and he looks right at one. He's even stupider than I thought. He at least figured out the police were checking the cars. Where did they get the car seat for Hope? Fiz doesn't have a car.

Love is blind and it addles your brains. That's what everyone thinks about Fiz and let's face it, with her history, it's no wonder. She and Tyrone are at a brick wall, with not enough money to get anywhere safely so Fiz pleas with Chesney to help. She works on his guilt and he ends up agreeing to bring her some cash. Katy is furious because she's spent all morning defending them to the likes of Tracy Flaming Barlow who's a hard faced cow who enjoys causing trouble wherever she goes. Everyone thinks she and Chesney were in on the kidnapping and of course they weren't. Now, though, it looks like Chesney is going to be dragged into it anyway. Kirsty is going to make a television appeal which is only going to up the pressure and it makes me ill to see how Eileen is so protective of her.

Under normal circumstances, you can imagine how frantic Kirsty must be. She still is and should be with her child missing but she knows damn well why he took it. Sally won't have believed Kevin's lies to the police but she had her own grilling to put him through but he managed to sidestep that. Chesney is in a pickle again. Fiz is involved with another loser in his eyes. I'm not sure if Tyrone is a loser but he certainly isn't the smartest. Well, they're ensconced in a Welsh B&B while Norris reckons Tina is the ringleader of the whole plot and Tina overheard him. I'm glad she stood up to them all and told them they'd all have egg on their faces in the end. And I, for one, can't wait. I do think Rita, Emily and Dennis, obviously, are more or less on the fence.

Kylie even agrees with David that they can't afford to pay more rent. So why are they planning to move out? It'll cost them much more than they're paying living at home. Audrey might have been playing tough love with Gail but hearing that Gail could lose the house if David and Kylie move out gives her an idea, with Rita's help. I can understand Audrey being angry with Gail. what's the solution? Lending David and Kylie the money to buy Gail's house from her and let Gail lodge with them instead of the other way around. It's the best solution even if Gail can't accept it. Here's what i want to know.

Gail borrowed against the house to move to Italy. How was she planning to repay the loan from there? Was she going to sell it anyway? So what's different now? Kylie and David had been approved for a mortgage back when they were going to buy Eileen's house. Gail isn't going to forgive Audrey for setting her up as a lodger? I think Audrey has a lot more not to forgive Gail for and she knows it. Gail was so funny drunk with the mortgage guy.

Gail's idea is ask for a raise and come live with Nick and Leanne. Is it asking too much? Yes it is. But Nick can't say no. So there goes the rent that David and Kylie were counting on to help pay the mortgage. I can't blame Leanne for kicking off. If my mother-in-law refused to come to my wedding because she hates me and then wants to live with me, I wouldn't let her either. Nick then has to crawl back and tell Gail she couldn't move in. I can't understand why Gail would want to in the first place. Lesser of two evils? I love Gail's rebellion!! She's not giving in an inch to Kylie and David and it's sooo funny to watch! She's got her own cupboard, she's not ironing for them, she's not on Max duties. Suck it up kids! I'm just a paying guest!

I doubt very much Tracy will last very long at the factory. Between working with Kirk and the factory workers taking the mick and Michelle laughing at her? Even trying to get under Michelle's skin is going to wear thin after awhile. But Tracy is getting under Michelle's skin.

Sylvia really is being vague and there are things not adding up. Sylvia thinks she's lost her purse (wallet). Even Roy's offer of 20 pounds wasn't good enough so she asks for 100 as an advance on her salary. She looked overly relieved when he gave it to her and Hayley's suspicious. She wasn't in too much hurry to call up and cancel her other cards and only pretended to when Roy insisted. Sylvia continued being mysterious and Roy is getting worried. Is she ill? He ends up following her via Lloyd. What's he going to find?

Faye had more than a little lip teasing Sylvia about America. She managed to slip out when Sylvia dozed off. Stupid girl. Tim needs to realize what a stroppy little liar Faye can be. He doesn't really know her at all yet. I still have an unsettled feeling about Tim. I can understand Faye wanting to meet and know her dad and I really hope it is on the level. Letting her lie to her parents isn't a great idea but she got away with it. Meanwhile Anna and Owen are so naive. Faye ran off to see Tim again, this time behind Gary and Izzy's back. She's one determined little girl.

Laughed at Beth giving away the end of the dvd Marcus and Maria were going to watch. Temporary accomodations lasted 6 weeks, they did well putting up with all the extra poeple that long! Beth is on a mission to win Maria over but a big breakfast backfired because they didn't want it. Helping with the housework, too but it's too little too late. Beth's  idea of a great club is a gay club. That doesn't go over well with Maria, who thinks Marcus could easily be lured back to the other side. Overreact much? Naturally Sean catches Marcus drowning his sorrows in the exact same gay club out of all the clubs in Manchester. In spite of it all, Marcus *did* stay on in the gay club, a familiar surrounding for him. Nice to see he and Sean reconnect. But having that drink with Sean didn't help Maria's insecurities any.

It won't be long before Kirk and Beth move out and not before time. I hear they're going to rent the flat over the butcher shop because after all, almost nobody lives very far from Coronation Street and that flat's been available since Janice moved out. You know, under other circumstances, Marcus and Maria would make a really nice couple but I still think it's all going to end in tears.
