I'm ready for Bethany to bugger off back to Italy now.

If she could take Les Dennis, Michelle, Tracey-Luv, Jazz-Hands, Chesney, Sinead, the chicken man and his entire family, and Rita I would be very grateful.

Agatha I think you could be on to something there. "Gran is hospitalised trying to 'repair' boiler and misses daughter's wedding".

Grin. I would go to any lengths, to keep them out of my house.

It's so daft that Gail would fall for a guy she first met when he broke into her house, and what I really think stretches credulity even further is, the lads wanted him to keep away etc, now they are happy seeing Gail marry him.

I have wondered if there's going to be a storyline explaining Audrey's rather shifty 'boiler' stories. Didn't Owen do some work there at one point? Can't remember exactly what he did.

eddiemairswife · 27/04/2015 11:00

News next week about Mary's motor home, and it looks like a re-appearance for Lily!

Housemum · 27/04/2015 11:07

Haven't they already done the dodgy boiler thing when Tyrone nearly poisoned Fiz by tinkering with the boiler?

Anyone else think Kev is a bit too quick to trust someone he barely knows (and has been a bit weird) with his son? Wouldn't you try the local childminders first, to see if someone had a space for a few months? And why doesn't Jenny have a job of her own - how has she got all this free time?

ProfYaffle · 27/04/2015 11:15

My total guess is that Agatha's actually not far from the truth and Audrey's using the boiler as an excuse to not have them all over - for reasons unknown.

I'm racking my brain trying to think of what Owen did. iirc Audrey had to move out for a bit and she was struggling to find the money to pay for the repairs. At the time I thought Owen was going end up ripping her off or something but it the storyline just kind of faded away with no resolution.

eddiemairswife · 27/04/2015 11:22

He was called in to do a minor job, but then found some serious problems with damp. I thought it was Rita who kept feeling poorly, and it was found to be carbon monoxide poisoning.

Housemum · 27/04/2015 11:50

Just googled it - Rita collapsed in 1998, Fiz in 2012, so surely another year before we are due to repeat CO poisoning?! (this is a public safety announcement...)

DocHollywood · 27/04/2015 20:08

Woo hoo! Jenny's ramped up the nastiness big time! I didn't see her in the first Maria clash so I don't know what started it, but the slap! First class! Looking forward to 8.30 Grin

ilovechristmas1 · 27/04/2015 20:16

what do we think Jenny's story is ??

woodhill · 27/04/2015 20:17

I thought Sarah had a decent job in Milan, wouldn't she try and set her sights higher than the Rover

mollyonthemove · 27/04/2015 20:46

how did wheelchair bloke get out of hospital and straight to beths!???? Confused

KenDoddsDadsDog · 27/04/2015 20:55

That slap was awful

DocHollywood · 27/04/2015 21:04

Is it going to turn into another Kirsty type thing? No one believing that she can be that horrible.

I think Jenny just wants Jack not Kevin. She must have had some sort of breakdown in the past, maybe to do with a child. Negligence and the child died perhaps, as previously mentioned. I thought she was going to apologise for the slap but she went straight on the defensive. Actually felt bad for Maria.

I don't care what Jenny's reason is, I have a list of people on the street I'd like her to slap before she gets caught.

ilovechristmas1 · 27/04/2015 21:36

agree she wants the boy more than the man

Southeastdweller · 27/04/2015 21:43

I can't stand the dull as ditchwater Maria so any slaps she get, undeserved or not, are fine by me Grin

Ellenora5 · 27/04/2015 21:49

At last a bit of drama, that slap was great, wonder what she is hiding, maybe she takes after her father, she has some temper on her, mind you I won't mind one bit if she slaps a few more people, (please let one of them be Chesney)

KenDoddsDadsDog · 27/04/2015 22:10

I was to give chesney a good exfoliate

eddiemairswife · 27/04/2015 22:18

The wheelchair chap(Sam?) mentioned last week that he had been discharged, so I can't understand why he is allowed the free-run of the hospital. It certainly is odd to come and visit Sinead on the day she comes home.

DocHollywood · 27/04/2015 22:26

My top three for a Jenny slap
Tracey - because she'll slap her back and it will turn into a great street fight
Andrea - for obvious reasons
Bethany - because there needs to be one person who isn't pussyfooting around her and letting her get her own way

Reserve is Dev for being such a bad father and leaving his children alone for so long

KenDoddsDadsDog · 27/04/2015 22:53

Oh yes Andrea . Slap to the other side of the red rec.

AgathaChristie01 · 28/04/2015 09:20

That's a good idea, definitely Andrea.
Tracy has probably been involved so many times in slap face fights, it would be just one more.
Callum and Sarah, Jenny could give both of them a slap too, for me.

I wonder will she be leaving again, once her secret emerges. I would have liked to see Kev with the posh lady, for another few dates, potential for humour there, especially with Sally and Tim as well.

HattieA · 28/04/2015 09:38

Norris had me laughing out loud again last night - "stack my bricks up" Grin

AgathaChristie01 · 28/04/2015 10:09

I love when the older characters such as Norris, are in scenes, now.
I just glaze over for a lot of the Platt family/ Callum scenes, at this stage.

woodhill · 28/04/2015 10:26

yes definitely Bethany. I wish someone in the Platt family would give her a slap. I know I would have done by now.

Jenny does seem to get very angry over nothing. Take a chill pill love. Was she always as aggressive?

Does Sinead have to visit the outside toilet?
