Coronation Street: 17 December 2010

At last, Tyrone knows about Molly and Kevin's affair, but talk about having a bad year. Perhaps next year will improve, and he'll catch the lurgy and be made bankrupt and have at least three limbs chopped off. It looks like the poor old thing is even going to be guilt tripped into bringing up Kevin's baby. I just hope he doesn't burn his Christmas dinner too.

Eastenders: 16 and 17 December 2010

It was almost like watching an adaptation of a Poirot or Miss Marple novel this week. I say almost, but, anyway, Glenda was pushed down the stairs, and shortly before this she had insulted everyone at Ben's coming home party. The way was left open then for a compelling whodunnit as we only saw the perp's arm as she or he did the deed.

As well as this act of violence, the culprit stole at least one of her earrings so could it be someone who is interested in jewellery? We are also invited to wonder if any of the guests whose actions aren't accounted for could have done it, and this includes Ben, Jay, Jane, Peter, Heather and Shirley (at least). Knowing Eastenders it was probably someone we've never heard of, though, so perhaps it's best not to spend anymore time thinking or writing about this. 

We might instead consider Emmerdale, and what Viv Windsor might mean by 'Posh Tea' ... As ever, answers on a postcard please.
