Tony gets involved in a scuffle with Jed at his home, which involves Jed being knocked unconscious. Given Jed is the only thing standing in the way of Tony's new flat development, will the ruthless businessman leave Jed for dead?


So no similarities to the storyline in which Richard Hillman and Dougie Ferguson got involved in a scuffle which involved Dougie getting knocked unconscious at the new flat development, and in which ruthless businessman Richard left Dougie for dead.

If Corrie was ever going to be axed that would have been the most poignant ending to it, tonight with regards to Ken's life

I've only been dipping in & out of Corrie of recent but is the woman in the book he mentions Derdrie (sp) or not?

He supposedly started his book 40 years ago, which is before he met Deirdre.

Tonight's episodes included some great scenes for Blanche: letting her caring side show for a fleeting moment, but then closing with the usual acerbic quip. Great stuff!

Have to agree that the writing in last night's corrie was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed Eileen's: "That's a bit deep for a Monday afternoon" to make the whole Ken and Deirdre story be a bit light-hearted.

I definitely agree with that, Blanche's moments of bathos were a joy to behold as ever! It's nice how they harked back to Ken's early days (on the show) as a frustrated intellectual, and a moving scene towards the end as Ken burnt his manuscripts.

Some great scenes with Becky-- her droll humour never cease to crack me up. I thought that anecdote about her fitness fanatic friend being ran over by the Snowdon train (justifying Becky's lax attitude to keeping fit), was well-observed.

Wanda Opalinska and Jane Danson are also both pregnant so with them and Alison King that will be 3 characters being written out for a significant period.
