Tempers flare between Kevin and Tony
Airs on Monday, July 14 2008 at 19:30 BST on ITV1
Steve is still trying to avoid Michelle who is becoming increasingly concerned about the lack of a proposal. Meanwhile, Lloyd confides in Eileen about the whole thing, but refuses to tell her where Steve stayed over.
Eileen tells Lloyd that he should tell Michelle that he has made a mistake and Steve has no plans to propose. But in the meantime, an increasingly-under-pressure Steve has now proposed to a delighted Michelle.
Kevin isn’t impressed to find a delivery truck blocking the entrance to the garage. He knows it's Tony’s doing, but initially decides not to say anything. As time goes on, however, he gets increasingly angry and storms into the factory to demand it be moved.
When Tony refuses, Kevin takes the matter into his own hands. Carla is concerned that Tony has made an enemy of Kevin, but Tony points out that he is merely trying to make Kevin realise how difficult he could make it for him if he doesn’t sell up.
Ken is feeling dissatisfied with his life and surprises Roy by handing in his notice. Blanche says that it is because he was too embarrassed to admit to his uni friends where he was working.
Elsewhere, Dev is also wanting more out of life but doesn’t know where to start.
Lloyd tells Michelle the truth
Airs on Monday, July 14 2008 at 20:30 BST on ITV1
Eileen is still insistent that Lloyd tell Michelle that Steve is not going to propose. Lloyd reluctantly agrees, unaware that Steve has already proposed and is at this very moment celebrating in the Rovers. Eileen agrees to call Steve over to sign some cheques, giving Lloyd enough time to get across to see Michelle.
Meanwhile, Steve is oblivious to the time bomb ticking away over at Streetcars and celebrates with Michelle and the regulars. Having plucked up the courage to tell Michelle, however, Lloyd is dropped on when she tells him that Steve has already proposed but now she can’t accept. She asks him not to tell Steve that she knows.
Kevin and Tony argue about Kevin’s new sign and the parking restrictions between the garage and the factory. Kevin thinks he has finally got on over on Tony, and Norris is pleased that he has stood up to him. But Tony is no pushover and returns with the deeds for the factory which clearly show that Kevin has encroached onto his land. Kevin has to agree to move the sign – round two to Mr Gordon.
Meanwhile, Tony also decides to start a major charm offensive on Rita, aware that his row with Kevin could be dissuading her from selling, too. He takes her to the show flat and makes clear that one of the apartments could be hers as part of the deal.
Dev’s latest plan to try and pep up his life after having a business lunch cancelled is to rearrange the shop – but as Molly points out to Jack – this means him scribbling on a piece of paper and her doing all the donkey work.
Elsewhere, Deirdre is not happy about Ken’s decision to pack in his job at the café.
Michelle picks her engagement ring
Airs on Wednesday, July 16 2008 at 19:30 BST on ITV1
Michelle is devastated after Lloyd’s confession but she tells Carla that she plans to make Steve sweat and see just how far he will go with his little charade. When he tells her that he wants to choose the ring, she decides to pick one of the most expensive rings the jeweller has.
Steve insists in proposing again with the ring – he is stunned when she refuses, telling him she knows it was all a scam to cover up whatever he might have got up to on the night he went AWOL.
Molly’s efficiency in running the house does not go unnoticed by Jack, who comments to Tyrone that she is one in a million. Tyrone agrees and confides in Dev and Jack that he wants to ask her to marry him, prompting Jack to offer him Vera’s engagement ring.
Later in the pub, Molly is surprised to bump into her Auntie Pam who has upset Betty by trying to flog her knock-off stuff in the Rovers.
Rosie is enjoying her new-found power at Underworld and in a bid to ingratiate herself with the girls, she has a word with Tony about reinstating Sean. Tony tells her he values her input and will consider it.
Dev tries to get Tony to play golf with him but Tony isn’t interested – Dev is not impressed when Vernon says he will play instead.
Tyrone attempts to propose
Airs on Friday, July 18 2008 at 19:30 BST on ITV1
Michelle tells Carla that there's no second chance for Steve and lists all his bad points. Carla knows how much she loves him and later, when Carla speaks to Steve, she realises that he did really mean the proposal.
Steve manages to get Michelle to agree to meet him on neutral ground but it's immediately obvious that she is not going to be easy to talk round and she demands to know what happened the night he stayed out.
There’s a nice atmosphere at Molly and Tyrone’s as Jack checks that Tyrone is all sorted for this evening. When Auntie Pam arrives to see Molly, she soon twigs what Tyrone is up to as Molly reveals he has booked a swanky restaurant for later. Once at the restaurant, a nervous Tyrone makes sure the waiter has everything ready for his big moment – but things don’t go quite to plan.
Dev is looking forward to his round of golf until Vernon turns up in a rather garish golf outfit with a set of antique clubs. Once at the club, it's clear Vernon has no clue what he is doing and when Dev bumps into an influential local businessman, he's terrified Vernon is going to show him up.
Elsewhere, Mel is still furious at Teresa and makes snide remarks to Jerry about her staying.
Michelle throws Steve out
Airs on Friday, July 18 2008 at 20:30 BST on ITV1
Steve decides to come partially clean to Michelle and confesses that he did stay over at a girl’s house but that he stayed on the sofa and nothing happened. Michelle is furious and throws the engagement ring in a skip before storming off. A devastated Steve is left to wade through waste in the skip to try and find the expensive ring.
Back at home, Michelle is heartbroken and tells Liam that she wants him to kick Steve’s head in. She doesn’t believe he slept on the sofa and when he returns to the pub stinking of rubbish and begging for forgiveness, she throws him out on the street – followed by his clothes.
Jack and Auntie Pam excitedly await Tyrone and Molly’s return but are surprised when they return, not even mentioning a proposal other than the one they saw happen in the restaurant. Later, when Molly tells Tyrone she loves things the way they are, Tyrone hands the ring back to Jack.
Vernon’s golf improves dramatically after some coaching from Prem Mandal. Dev is delighted to have met such an influential businessman and impressed that he remembers him from Weatherfield Trader’s Association and agrees to go for a drink.
Tony gives Sean his job back and tells him that it was Rosie’s idea. Kevin overhears what Tony has said and tells Sean that Tony has reinstated him because he is playing a game to try and get him to sell the garage. However, Sally and Rosie are getting increasingly annoyed at Kevin’s paranoia about Tony.
