Coronation Street Wiki

Plot[]

Part One: Insisting that he calls the shots, Nick tells the factory girls that they can leave early. Carla tries to pull rank and tells them to leave Nick's employment but, needing their jobs, they all follow his direction and agree to return tomorrow. Nick orders Carla out. Lloyd does his best to keep Russ happy and occupied. Eddie babysits his nephew and takes him to the bookies where Leanne insists the child leaves once his race finishes. Lewis overhears Deirdre mentioning her birthday. Steve tells Ciaran he stands no chance with Michelle. He's also puzzled to spot Eddie with the baby. The hotel manager shows Hayley and Mary a smaller function room which overlooks the East Lancashire Steam Railway. Hayley's thrilled knowing that Roy would like it but Mary's disparaging and insists that they book the larger room. Returning to the cafe, Mary makes Hayley talk up the hotel to Roy. Carla spots that Nick is making up an order for Paul Stokes and tells him that he has stolen her business and she's suing him.


Part Two: Lewis loses another horse race. Deirdre offers him a cup of tea in the bookies while she closes up and he takes the opportunity to survey the till area. Cheryl returns and tells Lloyd that she's got to think through what's best for her and Russ. Lloyd tells her that she's welcome to stay for as long as she likes. Ciaran cooks a candlelight dinner for Michelle but covers up that he can't work out her oven. Leanne apologises to Carla for her part in Nick's enterprise and hears from Peter that Nick never applied for proper permits from the council. Michelle is presented with beans on toast for her special meal. Natasha tells Nick that she's made an appointment for them to view Dev's old flat. Consumed with work worries, he snaps at her and Natasha's embarrassed by his reaction. Michelle sidesteps Ciaran's advances and tells him the evening is over. Carla tells Nick that she knows he never got planning permission to open a factory in Turners Joinery and, having told George Wilson what's going on, it won't be long before he's closed down.

Mary Taylor (with reference to the "Rocket Suite" at the hotel): "Intimate is sales speak for 'you couldn't swing a cat' but by the look of the decor they've had a darn good try at it."
