Has Bev always disliked Audrey or is she picking up the closeness now between Ken and Audrey?
Emily was a good fun drunk, played it well :p
peter's excuse for being late was pretty lame as said why didn't he ring anyone
The excuse itself wasn't lame, I can quite imagine it happening just like he said. However, yes, he should have let someone know.Quote:

I'm glad they remembered Peter's often been able to get through to his sister when others have failed. I've really missed him. :(
I'd be highly sceptical of Tracy's claim that she's going to change if it wasn't for the fact that I know the writers are going to try and redeem her. Be warned writers - us viewers have very long memories. :nono:
The older generation telling tales of Deirdre's colourful love life was entertaining and poignant. I must admit to feeling very tearful at Liz's toast and Ken's final goodnight. :crying:
I think they were friends until the Fred incident. It was nice to see them bury the hatchet; I've really enjoyed seeing Bev again.Quote:

Bit of a misery Id say- well I would -
all fair in love and butchery all fair that's
what I always say !!
Dupl
Excellent continuity in this episode.
Thanks maidmarian i had forgotton all that. How do you all remember these things amazing as there is too much remember. I hav'nt watched last nights episode will catch it today.
It was the best of Deirdre episodes last night. It should have been an hour long though, and half of it could have been still from the funeral..and no other storylines.
While they were sharing memories about Deirdre, 1 or 2 old video clips would have been good idea..just to bring her closer once more.
I enjoyed the heated arguments in the Barlow household too. Deirdre and Ken has had few of those over the years too ;)
I thoroughly enjoyed Tracy's words to Ken, he deserved to get something back after what he said to her at the funeral. It wasn't the time and place, and Deirdre wouldn't have been happy about Ken's picking on Tracy either.
Shame on Peter! How did he dare to go and judge Tracy as a parent???!!!
And I say this as a fan of Peter.
I think the change happened too fast..from argument to sweet smiles and cups of tea.
And I say again-Simon should be with his dad now, wherever he goes. If that's what Simon wants.

Tracy certainly didn't show any respect when she ruined Blanche's funeral by creating a huge scene that completely dwarfed Ken's wrongdoings!Quote:

There's something still nagging away at me about tonight's episode.....
Did table seven ever get their wine?
Disappointed that we didn't see Peter at the graveside.
I agree, very short return. I'd assumed that he was back for a week.
I am not liking the new Robert so far which is strange as I like the actor playing him
I would have liked to have seen Peter too at Deirdre's grave
'Hello son, bye bye son '?!How selfish was that?! And I think even from Peter bit too much, not believable. He's always loved Simon and I would have thought he spends at least a full day with him and told him one2one that he's got a job at the Caribbean..!! Ridiculous
I was luckier than most because I assumed Chris was only back for one episode, so seeing him again tonight was a pleasant surprise. He was starring on stage in Little Voice when these episodes were filmed so there was a limit to what he was able to fit in.
I suppose they've given Peter this job in Antigua so Leanne won't be able to turn to him for support. She should tell him he can't go because Simon needs him. Peter's being completely thoughtless as usual (it's no wonder Simon opted to live with Leanne) but he should be told that Simon's so troubled. At least Peter's selfish behaviour's in character I suppose.
Trust Tracy to think she can make amends to Carla by offering to be her friend! She hasn't got a clue lol. It probably wouldn't occur to her that confessing she started the fire would be the best way to help Carla. I notice she couldn't resist sniping at the factory girls... http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...ppy-514478.gif
Glad to see Ken's got rid of that kimono (especially since Brian got a bit too much enjoyment from feeling it against his bare skin :D). Everyone appears to have forgotten that Ken's a vegetarian!
That Dan's a really nasty piece of work! :angry:
I think Robert seems nice so far. He's waaaay too good for Tracey (even with the secret wife lol).Quote:

I must admit I hadn't noticed the accent, but then I'm not familiar with the actor so I don't know how he usually speaks. I'll be all ears tonight now. :DQuote:

oh yes better that you know who, but there were one or two words where I couldn't decide if he was Manc or Yorkshire or what he was trying?Quote:

I'm from London mate??!! and it niggled a bit with me..Quote:

I think Cathy has romantic feelings for Roy
Alison King played a blinder in Friday's episodes. I could really feel Carla's emotional turmoil during her unpleasant attack on Roy, and later talking to Michelle in the factory. At least she apologised to Roy and they parted on good terms. David Neilson was of course excellent in those scenes as always.
I was enjoying the outing of dirty Dan's secret in the pub until his daughter walked in. I totally understand Liz's anger and revulsion, but it was out of order to tell his poor daughter. Leanne will be the one to pay for that.Quote:

I am not sure about that, I think she is letting Roy handle some of the household chores her husband used to do as she does not seem capable of doing them herself ...Quote:

Maybe the three point turn is Roy's achilles heel when it comes to driving? Mind you, I bet reversing around a corner is a lot of people's - it certainly was mine. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...ppy-514478.gifQuote:

I agree it's just a platonic friendship. They're both still too wrapped up in their dead spouses to think about anyone else in that way at the moment.Quote:
