Monday 22nd August - Part Two

Picking up from where we left off in the prison, unsurprisingly, Fizz decides to grass on Ruth. The governor tells her that she's done the right thing. I doubt she has, to be honest.

Back in her cell, Ginny comes around from her latest trip, expecting another lecture off Fizz. I say lecture, she actually recites lyrics from The Verve's 'The Drugs Don't Work'. Maybe she was expecting a concert?

Ginny tells Fizz that she's heard about Ruth's cell being raided for drugs and tells Fizz that whoever has grassed her up must have a death wish. Oops.

In the Rovers, Kylie has begun flirting with one of the lads that came in. Incidentally, it's also the one Audrey fancies. Probably not the biggest competition for a guy Kylie will ever have.

Gail gets irritated at Kylie's apparent disregard for her marriage to David and keeps blinking and shaking her head a lot. Sort of like a mini-seizure. Unfortunately, it isn't.

Marc comes in and announces that the builders are finished at his house and he can move out of Audrey's, however, Audrey is clearly unhappy at this and tells Marc she wants him to move in permanently, which he agrees to. Cue an old person snog, a wincing Gail and a heaving nation.

After Gail has gotten over having to witness that, she goes over to Kylie to remind her about her marriage to David. She was having a pretty lousy birthday as it is, without being reminded that she's wed to a human rat. Gail says that David deserves better, I'd doubt this heavily. She then goes home and locks Becky out.



Meanwhile, Maria bumps into Chris in the cafe and gives him his jacket back before trying to guilt trip him into coming back. Chris tells her that he isn't interested and leaves Maria looking sad and teary. No change there, then.

At the other end of the love scale, Julie and Brian are all over each other before going back to his as Eileen walks in on them. Tiring of playing matchmaker and not getting anywhere herself, she signs up for an internet dating site.

Always a woman of impeccable style, Mary gets ridiculously overdressed for Norris' compensation banquet at Roy's, and tries to build it up as a date. Flustered and scared, Norris invites Dennis along. Presumably this is to help save him from Mary. At the meal Norris and co take full advantage of their opportunity to get one over on Sylvia. St. Emily of Killing Joy suggests that they start taking it easily on her, the bloody spoil sport. Mary tells her to leave her Christianity at home and to locate her inner cow. I'd suggest that, in future, they just leave Emily at home. She's about as interesting as a damp cabbage.

In the prison, it turns out that, out of nowhere, a previously elusive place comes up on the mother and baby for Fizz. Ginny guesses that it'll be Ruth's spot she'll be taking. As think as she looks, it can't be too hard to piece this one together, can it?

Fizz tells Hayley about being able to have Hope in with her. Hayley and Becky are both saddened they won't be lookng after Hope any more. Becky more so.

Word gets around that Fizz has gained a place on the mother and baby unit and she is soon confronted by Ruth, Ginny and a couple of other jailbird birds. Turns out, as well as a place on the unit, Fizz also gets a bust nose for her troubles.

The moral of the story: Babies - they just aren't worth it.
