Cobbleheads! 
Welcome to the first Corrie thread of the week.
Thanks to Aggie and dullagj2 for the last two Corrie threads. Please remember that there’s a change to the Corrie schedule this week:-
Due to the football there’s no episode of Wednesday. This will be shown at 8:30pm on Thursday instead
Hope you all had a good weekend and are ready for another week of Corrie drama.
Boyfriend and I won’t be watching ‘live’ as he’s watching the Athletics which is on t’other side at the moment and that doesn’t finish until 7:30 so we’ll be catching up with Emmerdale first…

First Episode
Tina puts on a brave face as the Windasses host Jake's homecoming party at The Rovers, but when she holds the baby for the first time since leaving the hospital, all of her memories come flooding back.
As Owen then makes a poignant speech, thanking Tina for carrying the child, her heart breaks. Finally losing her cool, Tina has a vicious row with a mocking Tracy, before grabbing a bottle and heading off into the night intent on self-destruction…
Meanwhile, as the Platts keep a vigil at Nick's bedside, David struggles to hold it together. The consultant then tells the family that Nick may never wake from his coma, and even if he does, he could have permanent brain damage. Will David finally crack under the pressure?
Elsewhere, as a worried Beth discusses Craig's recent bad behaviour with Maria, Kirk and Sinead, she wishes she knew what lay behind it. Tackling Craig, Beth demands to know if he is taking drugs.
Also, Sophie and Jenna notice that Sally is keen on Tim, but as he's due to leave on Friday, will either do anything about it?
Finally, Lloyd assures Jenna that he wants her in his life.

Second Episode
Alone on the Red Rec, Tina drinks in a bid to blot out the pain. At the same time, Tommy is blaming himself - Tina only got into this to pay his debts and it's destroyed her.
Determined to find Tina, Rita heads to the Red Rec where she's been spotted. However, by the time Rita arrives, Tina has thought better of drinking herself stupid and headed home. But as a relieved Tommy and Dennis comfort Tina, where is Rita?
Meanwhile, alone at Nick's bedside, David is sick with remorse. Begging Nick not to die, he vows to confess. However, as Kylie tells David how much she loves him, will he be able to bring himself to reveal the truth about Nick's accident?
Elsewhere having found no evidence of drugs on Craig, Beth wonders if he could be struggling with his sexuality. Kirk offers to talk to him, but will Craig open up about what's really troubling him?
Also, as Sally heads out on a date with a man she met online, Tim is taken aback by how good she looks. Is Sally dating the wrong man?
Finally, Lloyd says goodbye to Mandy.

Well done newlampwick, but I'm going to get you next week(okay, so I probably won't)
My three for the tram out of Weatherfield are Carla, Tyrone and Audrey.
You did!
Read the wrong column. Should have listed the person in the next column to you on the scoresheet:- rayofsunshine
The first time I have ever been on target with the evictees!!
Probably not, seeing as Corrie is a highly complex piece of art.
I thought so!
You missed the best episode ever. One of the most loved characters in corrie history (Mandy) left in some of the most powerful scenes ever broadcast on British tv. Her exit will have massive repercussions for the whole of the street for some time so I wouldn't bother watching tonight if I were you
"Oh Mandy, you came and you gave me a turkey..."
