Cheeky Charlie gets a shiner
by Rachel Broady12/ 5/2005
CORONATION STREET Cheeky Charlie gets another
black eye from a man warning him to stay away from his wife. But
Charlie tells Shelley that it's Dev what did it, innit. Obviously
the silly mare will believe every word - and ends up in a catfight
with Sunita. Dating one idiot is unfortunate, Shelley, dating two
is stupid.
Talking of stupid. Candice, she with all the personality of a
mannequin, is thrilled to tell everyone she's a weathergirl. But
she's lying. After being spotted in a shop window, she's outed and
it looks like she's heading back to the salon for some proper
work.
Meanwhile, Norris finds Gandalf asleep next to a recording of
frantic typing and becomes suspicious. Gandalf is strapped for cash
and steals a figurine from Emily's sideboard. I can't see a pot dog
from Blackpool raising much cash.
And the fragile ceasefire at the Websters' is in the balance when
Justine accuses Sally of having an affair with her husband,
confirming Kevin's suspicions. Crikey, he's as gullible as Shelley.
Sally has had more flings than a contestant in the Highland
Games.
EMMERDALE Relationships are much more
straightforward in Emmerdale. Basically, watch your back because
everyone is out to get you.
Sadie is trying to trick her way back into Tom's old heart but
Jimmy won't let her. Cain is taunting a miserable Robert over his
fling with Sadie. And Chas lies to Denzel when Shadrach nicks a
police car.
But some of the meddling is good. Marlon is trying to reunite Paddy
and Emily. Oh, and Dawn and Ashley both try to convince Zoe to let
Scott be a better dad (is Ashley turning into Ned Flanders?) by
allowing him to take his daughter on holiday to Spain.
But it seems the schizophrenic lesbian vet has decided to leave the
village for good and in a respectable manner - that is, not in a
burning church, a crashed jet, a tipped-over wheelchair or at the
wrong end of a Sugden gun.
EASTENDERS Alfie has had more Slater sisters than
Minty has had meat pies. Now he's spending cosy nights in with
Little Mo with a broken DVD player and an interruption from Gary
and Minty. Aah, the southerners know how to do romance. Meanwhile,
Martin, Sonia and Derek all move out of Pauline's. I wonder if a
member of the Johnny Allen clan will move in.
