Template:10 March

10th March 1997: Liz, Jim and Andy McDonald were held hostage at gun-point by Gerry Turner, who had followed Liz to 11 Coronation Street so that he could kill her in response to her telling the police about Fraser Henderson's raid on an airport warehouse, resulting in the gang getting caught in the act. Liz swore she was innocent, but Gerry didn't listen and kept the McDonalds prison while he arranged a getaway car. When Gerry was briefly distracted by his mobile phone ringing, Jim jumped him, causing the gun to go off, hitting the ceiling. Andy and Liz then rounded on Gerry. The sound of the gunshot alerted the neighbours, who summoned the police. Gerry was then taken into custody with no further trouble. Liz's nightmare was over at last.
