Blanche’s funeral arrangements brings a blast from the past.
Becky fears she’s made the biggest mistake of her life.
Does Kirk’s blind date go to plan tonight?
Norris tries to make a run for it but twists his ankle as Mary pursues him in the motor home. Back at
the cottage it becomes clear that she has totally lost the plot as she sits on his glasses, leaving him
both half blind and crippled, and then starts to talk about marriage. In desperation he calls 999 and
she is taken in for questioning by the police. But she is not gone for
long and is soon back in the Kabin giving her version of events.
Deirdre gets the news from Portugal that Blanche is dead and sets
about planning the funeral with a heavy heart. Graeme is trying to
help Tina by bringing her food, but she is still refusing to face the
world, and when Jason tries to show some potential buyers round
the flat he is annoyed to find that the locks have been changed. It
looks as though Becky has blown her chances of adopting when
she accuses Dawn the social worker of talking down to her, but she
gets a second chance when Dawn sees how caring she is with Amy. David is fed up with Natasha
staying at the Platts' and tells Nick that Graeme is moving in. Izzy agrees to another date with Kirk,
and it seems to be going well until she jumps down Liz's throat and tries to boss him around. What
is the poor lad letting himself in for? Tracy calls from prison to announce that she has been given
permission to attend Blanche's funeral.
Norris makes a bid for freedom
Airs on Sunday, May 2 2010 at 20:00 BST on ITV1
With Mary in the bath at the remote cottage, Norris makes a run for it towards the nearest village. On his way, he calls Rita but is suddenly cut off and when he spots Mary driving towards him in the motor home, he tries to hide in a ditch.
Mary eventually finds him but his further attempt to escape fails when he twists his ankle.
With the motor home suddenly working again, Mary insists on taking Norris back to the cottage where she can look after him. On their return, Norris is further panicked when Mary begins talking about marriage!
Meanwhile, Gary admits that he's AWOL because he's scared of going to war. Anna insists that he would still be a brave person if he packed the army in. Gary goes to pack ready to leave, while Eddie admits that the warrant officer is already on his way.
Elsewhere, Graeme stops by Tina's flat to fix the door, David's fed up with Natasha staying at the Platts' and tells Nick that Graeme's moving in; and Graeme agrees to keep quiet about Tina's situation on the proviso that she lets him visit every day with food.
The Barlows learn of Blanche's death
Airs on Monday, May 3 2010 at 19:30 BST on ITV1
Having planned a welcome welcome home party for Blanche, the Barlows are concerned when she doesn't turns up at the airport.
Finally managing to contact her friend May in Portugal, Ken's stunned to hear that Blanche has died. Shaken by the phone call, Ken breaks the sad news to Deirdre.
Meanwhile, a crippled Norris is left virtually blind when Mary 'accidentally' stands on his glasses. As she pushes him for an answer to her proposal, Norris is desperate to escape.
His mind running away with him, Norris begins to worry that she could be poisoning him. It's only when he hears her talking to her dead mother that he realises that she's stark raving mad.
Elsewhere, Becky and Steve begin to worry about their suitability as adoptive parents when they're given a date for their meeting with the social worker; Graeme's back at Tina's with food but she's still refusing to face the world; and Jason received a call asking him to show some potential buyers around the flat.
Blanche's friend May arrives in Weatherfield
Airs on Monday, May 3 2010 at 20:30 BST on ITV1
Reeling at the news of her mother's death, Deirdre wants answers but all Ken knows is that Blanche died that morning in her sleep.
Later, Blanche's friend May arrives with more information - Blanche had fallen in love and was returning to Weatherfield to tell her family and friends of her happiness but died of a heart attack.
Deirdre's stunned and needing to piece the events together for herself, she and Ken head to the airport, bound for Portugal. Later, Peter breaks the news to a devastated Simon, while Steve ponders how to tell Amy that her grandma's dead.
Meanwhile, Norris confronts Mary, having heard her talking to herself. However, she claims that there's a phone in her room and she was talking to a friend - unbeknown to Norris, though, it was actually her mother who is still alive!
Terrified that he's locked up with a lunatic, Norris dials 999 and claims that he's being held captive against his will. As he rushes outside, Mary chases after him just as the police arrive - to hear Norris accusing Mary of trying to kill him - and her mother.
At the station, Mary's taken into an interview room for questioning, while Rita arrives to collect Norris, who hopes that he's seen the last of Mary.
Elsewhere, Jason's frustrated that the locks have been changed on the flat, meaning he can't shot potential buyers around; Ashley and Steve plan to buy two of Trevor's World Cup tickets but all agree to keep it quiet from the women in their lives; and Jason confronts Graeme when he spots him emerging from the flat.
Ken finds a letter in Blanche's belongings
Airs on Thursday, May 6 2010 at 20:30 BST on ITV1
As Ken and Deirdre return from Portugal, they're grateful to hear that Peter's started making funeral arrangements.
Later, Ken finds a letter in Blanche's room, titled 'In the event of my death'. Sharing his discovery, Deirdre's furious at him for going through her mother's belongings.
Meanwhile, as Norris recounts the story of his kidnap to anyone who'll listen, he predicts that Mary's now in custody. However, when he hears that she's been released without charge, he panics. Will Mary stay away?
Becky's nervous about the impending visit from the social worker, so Claire offers to help with a dry run. However, she takes her role far too seriously and Becky finds herself more terrified than she was before.
Elsewhere, Peter and Tyrone join Trevor's secret World Cup party; and Kirk wants to go on another date with Izzy.
Becky crumbles in front of the social worker
Airs on Friday, May 7 2010 at 19:30 BST on ITV1
Becky's tidied The Rovers' flat and is dressed in one of Claire's cardigans for the social worker's visit. When the Dawn arrives, Steve and Becky do their best to make a good impression but Becky's insecurity soon manifests itself.
Going on the defensive, Becky accuses Dawn of looking down her nose at her, before suggesting that Steve fancies her. Steve's aghast as Becky tells Dawn to forget the adoption plans, before showing Dawn the door.
Meanwhile, Deirdre finally plucks up the courage to open Blanche's letter and is amused to discover a series of demands for her funeral. As Deirdre continues arranging the service, it's clear that Deirdre's emotions are still raw.
Norris is shocked to see Mary in the Kabin. It's clear that she's recounting a very different version of events to his and much to Norris's disdain, everyone believes her. Put out by the turn of events, Norris warns Mary to stay away.
Elsewhere, Kirk arranges another date with Izzy.
Tracy begs to attend Blanche's funeral

Tracy begs to attend Blanche's funeral
Becky's gutted that she's probably blown her only chance to adopt, while Steve tries to resolve the situation by rushing after Dawn. Blaming Becky's outburst on her nerves and strong desire to adopt, Steve begs Dawn to give them a second chance.
As Dawn re-enters the room, she overhears Becky breaking the news about Blanche's death to Amy with love and sensitivity. Dawn's touched and continues the visit, with Becky now firmly on her best behaviour.
After the visit, Becky's overjoyed as Steve assures her that nothing will obstruct their plans for a perfect family. Meanwhile, Tracy begs the prison governor for permission to attend Blanche's funeral, claiming that she needs to be there for her daughter.
The governor eventually relents and agrees that she can go. How will Steve and Becky react to her arrival?
Meanwhile, Ken continues to be strong for Deirdre and it suddenly hits him how much he'll miss Blanche. Tracy calls home and reveals that she's asked for a day release to attend the funeral.
Izzy and Kirk's date is going well, as the conversation flows back and forth with ease. However, it's not long before Izzy jumps down Liz's throat, accusing her of talking down to her.
Izzy then bosses Kirk into applying for the machinist job at Underworld. With that, Kirk begins to wonder what he's let himself in for.
Elsewhere, Sean decides to track down Violet, Jamie and his biological son Dylan.
Mary's mother's still alive! I'm looking forward to seeing Mary in full-on psycho mode :eek:
Aww...Blanche was in love when she died :crying:
It's about time Sean's son was mentioned.
