Sorry, I meant Michelle of couse.

As for Tom, im not quite sure what to make of him, he definately comes over as quite camp in some of his scenes.

However I was under the impression that it is

Marcus who cheats on Sean whilst in London. That is how Marcus and Sean split up?


Of course I would prefer it if they turned Liam gay instead, I know just who could play his boyfriend Wink

That is how Marcus departs, but perhaps Tom will be the shoulder for Sean to cry on after the split?

There was definite "chemistry" on Monday night and it was far too blatant to be a coincidence.

Oh I hope not.

OMG at Liam shirt in tonights episode - is he trying to out camp Tom? I want that shirt with Liam in it!

It was a nice touch Jed having photos of Minnie, and having Jed call his cat "Sunny Jim" which Minnie used to call Jed.

When the 'bat problem' surfaced Tony Gordon told Roy Cropper that he was 'just one of the investors' in Victoria Court. Now he seems to be the only investor as none of the others have ever made an appearance by the looks of the party held tonight.

Is him becoming sole proprietor of VC another convenient plot element that is supposed to have happened without anyone noticing or needing to be mentioned?

Or did I miss something one week? It's quite possible!

Tony seems to be the only businessman I know, who is doing well out of the credit crunch. Clearly the economic downturn and slump in the property market doesn't affect him or his invisible investors. Could explain why only three builders have been working on the whole project Wink

Good point Stuart: I can't recall his other investors being mention again? Confused

Hmm, perhaps Liam is try to out-garish his cousin; perhaps some kind of in-joke, as with the Rubik cube at the cab office. Should Liam drink from both taps, I can't think who'd want to play Liam's boyfriend, Jez.... casting couch beckons perhaps?

Marcus does cheat on Sean. This culminates in Sean making Marcus leave Weatherfield, never to return-- or promise to anyhow. Sean is obviously an expert on such things, given he copped off with Sunni when the latter was seeing Michelle!

Nice episodes tonight, liked the shot of Jed in hospital looking at a photo of Minnie Caldwell... interesting to note that he said his cat's name was 'Sunny Jim'. Didn't Minnie used to call Jed that?? Blanche was again on top form tonight as well - as always.

Dev just grates and grates on me. Why they've felt the need to give him a - rather poor - storyline with this Bollywood star (god knows what she sees in him!) is beyond me.

I agree entirely, I feel the character should've been dispensed with years ago during the 'Mad Maya' storyline.

The only excuse for this plot could be a perception that Bollywood actresses have a facination for boring English characters who SHOUT alot.

Not too fond of Dev being in Coronation Street.

On another note, wasn't Emily Bishop's singing on last night's episode amazing. Has she thought about going on The X Factor, rapping with some American rapper - dressed like a chav. And being foul-mouthed.

Where has Betty gone? I miss characters saying to her "Hot pot, please,Betty" and her brilliant one-liner: "Alright, love". Perfect.

Or "Uhfffm alright!" when she's annoyed with someone. Smile

Well it would seem I was right and wrong about Liam's cousin Tom and Sean.

Seemingly Sean tries his luck with him but is 'rejected' by Tom who must be a straight bloke who flirts with gay blokes.

What an inspirational storyline.
