Eeee, there's been a lot going on along the cobbled streets of Wetherfield (Coronation Street, ITV1). Maria tries to kill Tony because Tony killed Liam (although no-one knows). Tony got rid of Jed to Wigan because Jed was also nearly killed by Tony (and no-one knows that either). But, Carla, Tony's wife, catches Tony manhandling Jed into a cab. Will her bulbous lips keep shut over that one; for a change?
Meanwhile, Peter Barlow is at a drying out clinic cos he can't keep off the sauce and it's left to Blanche and Leanne to run his turf accountant business. How on earth can they count out the money with the state of their eyes? Blanche has one eye going to the shop and the other coming back with the change and Leanne has one eye looking at you and one eye looking for you. Maybe should re-name his shop The Boggle-eyed Birds' Bookies.
Whilst walking his rat-type dog along Wetherfield canal, cheeky Ken Barlow managed to stumble across Stephanie Beecham living on a barge, so went in to sample her potato and leek soup and a glass of Shiraz.
As you do.
See? Soaps really are a reflection of real life.
If you're on LSD.
In A Million Pound Place In The Sun (Ch4, Thursday), presenter Amanda Lamb (does anyone else think 'two pigs in a sack?' when looking at her chest) tried to find footballer Jason Cundy and wife Lizzy a posh pad in France. Dizzy Lizzy was amazed by all the properties and dutifully clicked her fingers, annoyingly often, every time she got a little over-excited; which was about every two minutes.
In fact, it seemed that Lizzy thought the whole point of the programme was an audition for some kind of reality 'no-one's heard of me, but aren't I fabulous anyway'-type show.
She'd certainly be the winner of a Bratz doll look alike contest.
When it came to finding their dream home price at just over £1 million, Jason just had to get the windows replaced. Why? Because they were plastic.
Come on now Jason, plastic can't be that bad...just look at your wife.
In the end, after a lot of haggling with the vendor, Jason would not come down £5,000 on the price, so that was the end of that.
So that was worth watching then...not.
