The episode starts with Bill singing a very geriatric cover of ‘My Generation’ and for a second I thought I was watching a reverse mortgage commercial.
Maybe it’s because I was still picking white and pink icing out of my hair from the Canada Day festivities, but I got to say, it’d didn’t feel like a lot happened Tuesday either.
The Only Slightly Interesting Thing That Happened
Sarah still hates David and cheers the fact that Jason threw him up against the wall. Audrey talks to Gale about needing to reconcile with David and when he brings Gale flowers, she suggests that they go out for dinner.
Over dinner Gale tells David how she knows he upset that he found out that she wanted to abort him, but that ever since the minute he was born she has loved him. This is a good thing and it seems to ease David’s worries about his mom’s love for him.
Unfortunately he was assuming that the whole dinner was arranged to talk about him moving back home. When Gale tells him that the dinner is just to open up the lines of communication and to help them understand each other more, he stomps off claiming that she is playing head games with him.
Dead Frank
Dead Frank’s solicitors called around the house for Cilla, but as only Kir-keh was home, he called Fizz worried that the solicitors are there to get the necklace back.
Fizz calls Cilla and tells her to return the necklace, but Cilla tells them that it was a gift and not having a guilty conscience, she calls Dead Frank’s solictors.
On a personal note, I’m kind of bummed by this. As much as Cilla is a horrible person, I kind of wanted her to be Dead Franks fancy lady.
What Else Happened?
Maria is teased by Sarah about Liam.
Carla and Tony have a bit of ‘boom boom let’s go back to my room’ and we find out later that Carla hasn’t wang-chunged in QUITE a while. Hmmm…does this mean the marital bed was a bit cold before Paul threw off his mortal coil?
Jody out right asks Llyod if he likes her. He says, ‘Yessssssssssss’ and they arrange for a date at the Rovers.
Oh and Sean’s Marcus pops into the bar to tell everyone that smoking and drinking while your pregnant is just a bad thing to do. (Glacia was a bit of WTF? What’s with the public service announcements in the middle of my wee half hour of sex and Violets?)

I had the misfortune of attending a birthday party once where a pack of 7 year-old girls sang along with Hilary Duff’s version of The Who classic, it was creepy as hell. And being a good girl who is very conscious of how fragile her young fans are, Hilary changed the line Bill was singing to “Hope I don’t die before I get old.” Dead creepy that. And 100% true, you can look it up.
