Cobbleheads! :)


Welcome to the first Corrie thread of the week.


Thanks to Aggie and MsWilder11 for the last two episode threads.


Hope you all had a good weekend.


So what does The Hat >:(>:( have in store for us in tonight’s double helping of Corrie? :confused:


Full details of just what is lined up for your “viewing pleasure” can, as always, be found by clicking below.


First Episode
As Tim and Anna share a laugh in the café, Sally enters and clocks their intimacy. When Sophie and Maddie then see Tim slipping through the backdoor of Number 6 carrying a bunch of flowers, they break the news to Sally.

Inside, Anna is giving Tim his reading lesson when suddenly Sally bursts in with a face like thunder, demanding to know what is going on!

Meanwhile, as Michelle prepares for the hoedown party she is organising, it's clear that she is going to get no help from hungover Steve. Desperate to avoid Michelle, Steve sneaks back to the Bistro and guiltily orders up a cocktail. Steph is amused to see him back again.

Elsewhere, when Carla moans about how hard it is proving to find a trainee manager, Alya overhears and asks if she can apply for the job. As Alya prepares for her interview, Leanne warns her how scary Carla can be.

Also, Owen is cheered when Tony offers him some work on a warehouse conversion.

Finally, Michael and Gail head into town, back to the bar where hopefully the manageress has Gavin's contact details.

Writer: Julie Jones


Second Episode
Seething with rage, Sally accuses Tim and Anna of having an affair and storms out in tears before they can explain. Tim chases after Sally but Sophie and Maddie bar his way. A furious Sally then starts lobbing Tim's possessions out of the bedroom window, shouting abuse at Anna.

In desperation, Tim shouts up to Sally, telling her that Anna has been
teaching him to read and he is embarrassed. How will Sally and Faye react to Tim's bombshell?

Meanwhile, Eileen moans to Liz and Michelle about how Steve failed to turn up for his Street Cars shift and nobody can get hold of him. Over at the Bistro, Steph is short-staffed and Steve insists on helping out behind the bar. But how will Steve explain himself when Michelle calls in the Bistro and finds him working there?

Elsewhere, Carla interviews Alya. Alya describes her passion for upmarket underwear, but then realises that Underworld aims at a much lower market and worries she has blown it. When Kal begs Carla to give Alya a chance as she'd be an asset to her business, Alya is mortified. How will Carla react?

Also, Faye confides in Craig about how miserable it is to be skint and how she is dreading moving to the poky flat above the bookies.

Finally, when Michael explains to the manageress how he is trying to find his long-lost son Gavin, she agrees to pass on his address.

    Evening Cobbleheads & thanks for the thread RK. Pleased to hold on to top spot but have done so before & finished nowhere so not getting too excited yet.

    On a more upbeat note I have just beaten a circa-30 year record for days (16.5) without booze; at the end of which let me tell you, Dębowe Mocne is the dog's jangly bits.

    Evening all, thanks for the thread.

    Hope you didn't miss me too much on Friday but I was in God's own land Manchester on Friday seeing John Bishop at the Phones4U arena (and it still is the Phones4u arena even though they went bust).

    Sad times for Peter leaving the cobbles but on a plus side Fiz has gone.....yay:):):)

    Cheers for the thread, RK :) Howdy, folks *waves*

    Is it too much to hope that when Sally finds out Tim's secret that she'll just say "Can't read? Don't be daft, of course you can!", Tim will say "Oh yeah! Silly me!" and the entire thing will never be mentioned again?
