Leanne and Peter took the clamping incident rather lightly ... I would have been rather more upset about having to wait around and of course the bill

They are very tacky-but it's so Eva!

I've always liked her-she's a great character, and I just love when she laughs! So funny!

I think those cards are just meant to show us, how happy she is right now..Soon she'll find out the truth about aidan and Maria..Poor Eva..

I wished Peter would have been bit more thoughtful about Anna's situation?! Anna is not my favourite character, but the way Peter just wants her out of the flat is disgusting! Surely he could have said to her that 'there's no hurry, take your time, I give you enough time to find a place' .. Poor woman is not even able to move around! What's the rush anyway, Peter has a roof above his head-should focus on Ken now anyway and leave women alone for a while! Why do they always have to pair people with someone in soaps?! Get Norris a woman, but leave Peter alone for a while!!

Yes, Peter was unexpectedly horrible to Anna about the flat. I thought he was going to give her a month's notice at the very least.

I'm sure she must have rights even if there isn't a contract.

As far as I understand the law, the fact that she is paying him rent is a de facto contract and therefore he can't just throw her out. He can give her notice to quit and if she still doesn't go he would have to go to the County Court to get her evicted.

He did all that after Nick made fun of him living with his dad

Having said that, of course, UK law and good practice don't apply in Weatherfield, e.g Council elections, planning laws, archaeological excavations and so on, so who knows what the law is up there with regard to rented properties?

The only thing I could think of to post on Fridays double bill was that Leanne had pooed her pants.

Todd is just the person to give Anna advice about her notice to quit then - assuming he knows Weatherfield law and not just UK law.
