I'm glad Roy didn't let her get away with it!

I wonder what "payment" Jim is going to expect for keeping Peter in alcohol? Loved Rob's look of panic when he heard that Peter'd pleaded not guilty

Yippee Jenna is finally gone

Eileen was mean. How can anyone respond to someone hurting themselves like that no matter how much you dislike them

Yeah, I thought that was out of character.

Jenna's leaving storyline was sooooo badly written!! Who decides to change their life, then leaves home an hour later with just a hold-all to sleep on a friends sofa while they "decide what to do next"??? It was ridiculous. How hard would it have been to plant the seeds for her leaving a few weeks ago? She could have secretly applied for a few overseas volunteering positions and only heard during last night's episode that she'd been accepted. It wouldn't have been difficult to write something along those lines, but we were subject to a complete divorce from reality that happens all too often now in Corrie!

Also, why is Peter such a trembling mess all of a sudden? I got that his cravings suddenly increased when Simon rejected him, but one drink from Jim and he has the DTs? I'm not familiar with alcoholism but this seems over the top to me. I'm happy to be corrected if I'm wrong about that.

Gail and Michael's nauseating simpering to each other!

A disappointingly bad episode all round

[Perdita]

Agree with all your points. Having witnessed some alcoholics in my time, yes, they go crazy if they have been on the wagon for a bit and then have a little bit of what they fancy ... that was well researched and true to life .. sadly

Peter needs to wash too especially his greasy hair
