Sally and Kevin take some drastic steps. Keith faces some serious questioning. Jamie struggles to deal with his forbidden feelings.

Poor Rosie and Craig i feel really sorry for them. They are in love and the parents are just geting in the way all the time. They are being careful so I dont no why they are goign over the top about them sleeping together.

Kevin, Sally and even Keith are getting on my nerves. They've had safe sex together, not robbed a bank And they aren't 12, they're 15 which isn't far off the legal age. If they were 16 would they just shrug it off?

Good episode anyway.

Exactley u would think she had killed someone, there is no realism. Parents would be upset but i dnt believe they would start making threats like that and i reckon there taking a stab at the good old Romeo and Juliet play.

How long do you think it'll be until Rosie threatens to spill the beans on Sally's affair just so she can see Craig again?

Sally is a fine one to talk. Doing the dirty deed with the boss over the filing cabinet. At least Rosie and Craig had a little respect for themselves (and each other)

I really enjoyed Corrie tonight. The fallout from the Rosie/Craig situation is fabulous stuff, although I think Sally and Kevin are going a bit OTT about it all. Rosie and Craig are just doing what other kids do (sad but true), but at least they are being responsible about it, unlike others such as Sarah Platt! I can understand them being upset, but I don't think they are handling the situation particularly well.

I liked what Sally said to Audrey about Sarah having a kid at 12 and then Audrey replied, "13 actually" lol! As if that makes it any better!

I also thought Blanche was wonderful tonight. She had some great comedy at the start of the episode but, by the end, it was sheer drama as she struggled to comprehend her loss. I thought the scene between Blanche and Deirdre was fabulous and wonderfully acted by Anne Kirkbride and Maggie Jones.

I also quite liked Sunday lunch at the Battersby-Browns too.

I know, they are treating Craig as if he's a masked rapist. He's a nice lad, he and Rosie have been together for over a year, and they are having safe sex. But it wouldn't be realistic for Sally and Kevin to do anything other than go ballistic - because that's just what they're like.

Keith's reaction has been much more relaxed - he is only going off on one because of Sally and Kevin. But they are all totally misguided - there is no way they can keep them apart.

Now would be a good time for Rosie to 'remind' Sally again of what she knows about her and Evil Boss.

Deirdre and Blanche are always fantastic together, manage to be both touching and funny.

Liked Nursey Lee

Superb superb episode tonight. Websters shone yet again and loved Sally & Audreys dialogure

"If we did it the Platts way, I'd be a grandmother this time next year"

Battersby-Brown lunch was hysterical (as I predicted) expected Danny to suggest to Leanne about dressing up for him that night in a nurses uniform. And Cilla brushing past Danny with her boobs.

That was a really excellent episode tonight. What a way to start off Corrie 2006!

Loved the webster scenes - Sally in particular was brilliant especially when she had a go at Audrey. I was a bit surprised to see her have such a go at the Platts considering she is one of Gail's best friends.

The stuff with Jack and Vera was funny in places

Danny and Leanne having dinner at the Battersby's was ok - it would have been better if they had a row though!

That scene with Blanche and Deirdre was good and quite moving. Especially when she said "dont tell anyone, especially Ken, not until im gone"

The stuff with Liz and her boyfriend was boring though

I'm not overkeen on this Jack & Vera story. I know it's meant to be for comedic purposes only but surely they could have come up with something better than this. However, I have seen a short clip on the media section in itv website for Wed 4/1 where Jack poses and it does look funny.

Agree with you there on Liz & Vernon - boring

Great episode tonight

The Battersby-Brown scenes are usually painfully over the top but I didn't mind them tonight, I actually found myself laughing when Les put the wine away and told Cilla to get Danny a can - priceless!

Deirdre and Blanche were excellent, what a touching scene, I didn't know that Blanche's friend was going to die so soon into the new year so it was all totally random for me and I loved it. Blanche is usually known for comedy which she is great at but tonight made me realise that Maggie Jones is great at doing drama as well.

Jack and Vera were a bit OTT but I think they're great anyways even though I'm not too keen on their current storyline

Liz and Vernon were a bit boring, I didn't really pay much attention to their scenes.

Carol is beginning to get on my nerves, always saying and doing the same things ranting on at people being nasty and most of the time she's saying things she's said atleast once or twice before!

And saving the best for last...

I loved the fallout from the Craig & Rosie stuff, it was definately the highlight of the episode for me. Kevin and Sally are slightly over-reacting I can see why they'd be disappointed and even angry to an extent but as Drifter said would they react any differently in a years time when they're 16?
I loved the banter between Sally and Audrey and LOL at Audrey correcting Sally about Sarah-Louise's age when she had Bethany as if to say 13 was better than 12, wonderful dialogue there. Also surprised at Sally for having such a go at the Platts because like Coronation St said she's supposed to be good friends with Gail.

Great episode

Great episode, really enjoying the Rosie/Craig storyline (Don't see what the big deal is though)

Keith is now officially Coronation Street's resident beetroot.

You mean you haven't noticed his face getting more orange every day, it looks like he's been having a go on Cilla's sunbed.

Just watch tomorrow, you'll see what I mean.

Best episode we've had in ages.

All the best stuff came from the Rhursie & Craig storyline. Kevin & Sally's reaction was over the top but totally understandable & true to life. You have to wonder how they're going to manage things on a practical level once they've calmed down. If they lock Rhursie up in number 13 24 hours a day (aside from school) all they'll do is cause resentmen in her & she'll rebel & probably end up failing her exams anyway.
No parent wants to think about their children having sex but Rhursie & Craih were responsible enough to wait until they felt "ready" & they made sure they used protection. They may not have told Kevin / Sally / Keith but they didn't sneak off & "do it" in a potentially unsafe environment. Liked the Sally / Rhursie screaming scenes & Craig's total disregard for anything Keith said.

It was also nice to see Blanche get a bit of drama to do rather than her usual comedy stuff. The scene with her & Deirdre was well written & beautifully performed.

The Baldwin stuff was ok but nothing special. Jamie looked nice in his white jumper though.

Quite enojoyed the "Sunday lunch" stuff Chez Battersby-Brown. Leanne getting embarrassed by Les's & Danny's talk about her childhood was very good. Liked Cilla's comment about Chesney having a hot water bottle as he played outside ~ even though she was probably lying. She wouldn't be that thoughtful!

8 out of 10.

I hadn't noticed Keith's face to be honest, I felt really sorry for Keith tonight when Craig just ignored him. Keith should go back to Sheffield and have Craig put into care then Craig will know what it's like to be on his own and that he shouldn't have ignored Keith.
