LOL, Wiki is edited by you, me and everyone else on here, basically. Anyway, he is, there are pictures of Tony and Roy in a lake, with blood all over them in that magazine :P

 

im fully aware of that <_<

 

however the character listings are accurate, especially the 'arriving' and 'departing' sections, i havnt found them to be wrong..... yet... on the other hand his possible departure may not yet be imminant enough to figure.

Roy is certainly not leaving.
So Carla has gone again.. how does she come back now? :o
I don't know, but she's back on November 24th or something according to Wiki. I f***ing love her so much!
"You're really testing my patience now Tony. Switch on your Blackberry, kiss MILEY CYRUS goodbye and get over here pronto." A fine example of a classic CARLA CONNOR one liner.

November 9th week spoilers, it won't let me hide it though for some reason, this week looks set to be a good one leading up to the Tony & Roy scenes.

 

Monday 9 November [1]

 

As Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) takes over the relief manager’s job at the factory the gossip about Tony continues. The pressure starting to get to Hayley, she wonders if she’s up to the job. Roy’s (David Neilson) also feeling the heat and unable to stop thinking about Tony’s hospital confession he decides it‘s time he got some answers. Arriving home Maria (Samia Smith) finds Roy waiting for her, she demands to know what’s going on.

 

When David (Jack P Shepherd) overhears Gail (Helen Worth) and Joe (Reece Dinsdale) discussing their engagement he’s distinctly unimpressed. But it seems nothing can dampen their spirits, that is until Joe gets a knock on the door from a debt-collector. He tells Joe that he’s bought his debt from the kitchen supplies firm and they need to work out a repayment plan. Joe’s shocked, aware he‘s now in way too deep.

 

Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) skives off work to clean the house in readiness for John’s home-coming. But when she looks at the state of no.7 she despairs at the enormity of the task she’s set herself.

 

As Jack (William Tarmey) hides out at no.9. Connie (Rita May) calls round demanding to know why he’s avoiding her.

Monday 9 November [2]

 

As Maria (Samia Smith) demands answers from Roy (David Neilson) you could cut the tension in the room with a knife. Roy looks like he’s about to reveal all about Tony’s confession but at the last minute he decides he needs more evidence before he throws Maria’s world into further chaos. Bewildered by his behaviour Maria tells Roy to leave her alone.

 

Joe’s (Reece Dinsdale) stunned as the debt collector tells him he owes him £5k and he’s not leaving without it. In desperation Joe is forced to give him his van, but as he celebrates his engagement to Gail (Helen Worth) in the Rovers Joe lies, explaining he sold his van so he can buy an engagement ring. Gail’s touched while Joe, inwardly panicking, suggests a quick Christmas wedding.

 

Kirk (Andrew Whyment), Darryl (Jonathan Dixon), David (Jack P Shepherd) and Zoe (Kirsty-Leigh Porter) redecorate no.5 as a surprise for Fiz (Jennie McAlpine). She’s delighted as she nervously anticipates bringing John home.

 

Jack (William Tarmey) confronts Connie (Rita May) about the fact he keeps hearing her at his bedroom door. Connie’s mortified and explains that she must be sleepwalking. But will Jack buy it?

It’s John’s (Graeme Hawley) release day from prison and as an emotional Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) collects him they decide to go for a picnic to savour his new found freedom. But the day soon turns sour when they arrive back on the street. Sally’s (Sally Whittaker) furious when she spots John going to carry his new wife across the threshold and storms over branding John a paedophile. Kevin (Michael Le Vell) tries to calm the situation but as Fiz and John settle down for their first married night together Sally sets off to no.5, a woman on a mission.

 

When Roy (David Neilson) admits to Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) that he went for a walk in the middle of the night she urges him to stop obsessing over Tony. Roy assures her he will.

 

When Joe (Reece Dinsdale) buys Gail (Helen Worth) a cheap engagement ring she’s thrilled, pointing out they’ll now have more money to spend on the wedding. Joe quietly panics, knowing he‘s in it up to his neck.

 

Molly (Vicky Binns) tells Kevin she’s fed up of pretending there’s nothing between them and that if he really cares about her he’ll leave Sally. Kevin’s stunned.

Friday 13 November [1]

 

Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) hasn’t slept since Roy‘s (David Neilson) shocking revelation about Tony. Sorry she ever doubted him, Hayley claims it’s time they went to the police. But Roy reckons the police will never believe them. Unsure of what to do next the Croppers spend the day hiding in their flat. But when their disappearance becomes a talking point Roy realises he could be putting them both in danger and concedes they’ll have to go to the police.

 

Kevin’s (Michael Le Vell) had enough of Sally (Sally Whittaker) ranting about John Stape (Graeme Hawley) and promises to go and see a solicitor to find out where they stand. Molly (Vicky Binns) meanwhile is in a foul mood and when she snaps at Kirk (Andrew Whyment), Tyrone (Alan Halsall) presumes it‘s him being in the house that‘s bothering her and tells Kirk it’s time he found somewhere else to live. But Molly’s mood is only lifted when Kevin arranges to meet her at the motel later.

 

Eileen’s (Sue Cleaver) growing increasingly suspicious of Jesse‘s (John Thompson) strange behaviour so pays Eddie (Steve Huison) to watch his movements and report back. But when Eddie clocks Julie (Katy Cavanagh) climbing into Jesse’s van it looks like Eileen may be about to receive the news she didn‘t want to hear.

 

And Steve (Simon Gregson) arrives back from his honeymoon.

Friday 13 November [2]

 

Roy (David Neilson) and Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) have told the police everything they know about Tony, so when detectives tell them they’ll take it from here, they return to the street and hurriedly pack their bags. Now aware of the full extent of Tony’s crimes they’re intent on getting away from Weatherfield, fearing those involved in Liam’s death could come after them. But as the police arrive on the street someone is intent on silencing the Croppers, have they left it too late to get away?

 

Elsewhere John’s (Graeme Hawley) thrilled when Roy (David Neilson) asks him to help out in the café while they’re away. Sally (Sally Whittaker) meanwhile is less than happy to discover John in Roys Rolls and her hackles rise once more.

 

When Kevin’s (Michael Le Vell) solicitor tells him there’s little chance of getting an injunction against John, he takes the opportunity to use the meeting to find out how where he would stand financially if he divorced Sally. But Kevin doesn’t like what he hears and when he meets Molly (Vicky Binns) at the motel it looks like the meeting has forced him into making a big decision about their future.

 

And Eileen’s (Sue Cleaver) gutted when Eddie (Steve Huison) tells her that Jesse (John Thompson) has been secretly meeting up with Julie (Katy Cavanagh). Jesse assures her it’s a work arrangement only and not an affair but Eileen refuses to accept it and insists Jesse sacks Julie immediately. Will Jesse do as he’s told or has he had enough of being bossed around by Eileen.

Tony’s (Gray O’Brien) a desperate man and as he frantically tries to cling on to the new life he’s created he packs Maria (Samia Smith) off to a health spa for the day, knowing the police are about to come calling. Keeping up the façade Tony goes to work but when the police arrive and arrest him on suspicion of Liam’s murder he can feel his world falling apart. Down at the station Tony’s interviewed about the Croppers allegations. As the police pile on the pressure, saying they’ll speak to Maria, will Tony crumble and confess to murder?

 

Meanwhile Roy (David Neilson) and Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) return to the café and are relieved to hear that Tony has been arrested and taken to the police station. But as gossip about Tony’s arrest spreads Maria arrives back on the street. Is she about to discover the awful truth about Tony?

Monday 16 November [2]

 

Knowing he’s lost Maria (Samia Smith), Tony (Gray O’Brien) grabs the set of café keys he’s stolen and heads off into the night. Letting himself in Tony lurks in the shadows as Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh) sees Roy (David Neilson) off on a bat watch. Picking up a kitchen knife Tony follows Hayley towards the flat but he’s stopped in his tracks when he hears Maria banging on the door. Hiding again Tony listens as Maria sobs her heart out, while Hayley informs her of his confession and threats to kill Roy. Realising he has nothing to lose anymore Tony goes after Roy. Finding him at the canal Tony makes it clear he has come seeking revenge. As Roy demands to know what he’s done to Hayley, he’s horrified to see the blood-stained knife. Believing Tony has killed Hayley, Roy lunges at him. They fight but a younger, fitter Tony easily overpowers Roy then throws him semi-soncsious into the canal. As Roy struggles to stay afloat Tony watches him slip beneath the water. Has Tony killed again?

 

Elsewhere Eileen’s (Sue Cleaver) annoyed that Jesse (John Thompson) didn’t tell her about his fortieth birthday on Friday. She tries to force him to come clean but when he still won’t confess Lloyd (Craig Charles) suggests she should throw him a surprise party.

 

And as David (Jack P Shepherd) discusses Gail’s impending wedding with his new girlfriend Zoe (Kirsty-Leigh Porter), she correctly deduces that David would never approve of Gail’s choice of man.

As Tony is then interviewed he confesses to paying Jimmy to run over Liam out of jealousy, and admits to trying to kill Roy at the canal.

 

Maria’s shocked to hear Tony’s handed himself in and needing some answers she heads to the station. As the police confirm her worst fears Maria‘s horrified. In the interview room Tony pleads with her to believe that his feelings for her were genuine and that he’s tried to make amends for his evil deeds. Will Maria be able to forgive him?

Michelle’s (Kym Marsh) had a long night tending to a restless Maria (Samia Smith) and when Ryan (Ben Thompson) arrives she has the tough job of breaking the news to him that Tony had Liam killed. As he swears revenge on Tony, Michelle tries to calm him, but Ryan breaks down claiming he’s going to live with his grandparents as he can’t bear to stay in Weatherfield any longer. Devastated Michelle advises he call them first. But after speaking to Barry, Ryan decides to stay. Michelle‘s relieved until Ryan explains that Barry and Helen have flown in from Ireland and are at the airport.

 

Over at no.7 a hysterical Maria sets about removing all traces of Tony from her life. Still in a state of shock it’s clear Maria is a broken woman.

 

Elsewhere Gail (Helen Worth) and Joe (Reece Dinsdale) are about to go shopping for their wedding but when Joe gets a phone call from his debt collector he‘s forced to send Gail without him. Joe’s horrified as Rick (Greg Wood) tells him his debt has now doubled and threatens to take the boat as payment. Will Joe finally confess the extent of his debts to Gail?

 

As the Barlows welcome George (Anthony Valentine) and Eve (Sabina Franklyn) to tea they‘re stunned as Blanche walks in dressed to the nines. She openly flirts with George, who is charm personified, that is until she lets a few family skeletons out of the closet.

Friday 20 November [2]

 

As Helen (Dearbhla Molloy) and Barry (Frank Grimes) arrive on the street Michelle (Kym Marsh) explains to her parents that Liam had an affair with Carla and Tony had him killed out of revenge. Maria’s (Samia Smith) mortified when Helen then accuses her of sleeping with Tony to get revenge on Carla and Liam. Deeply hurt Maria takes baby Liam out for a walk but when she doesn‘t come home the Connors start to worry. Eventually they track her down to Liam’s grave where Maria, on the verge of a breakdown, makes a shock decision.

 

Fearing there’s no way out a desperate Joe (Reece Dinsdale) is forced to admit his massive debts to Gail (Helen Worth), although he doesn’t go as far as revealing a loan shark is involved. In a state of shock Gail walks out. Will she stand by her man again or has Joe lost Gail for good this time?

 

As George (Anthony Valentine) and Eve (Sabina Franklyn) leave the Barlows’ tea party George is short with Peter (Chris Gascoyne) and Leane (Jane Danson) after learning about their dodgy pasts. Peter’s hardly surprised but when George then calls at the betting shop apologising with flowers and gifts he‘s bemused.

 

Steve (Simon Gregson) and Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) are gutted to learn that their guest memberships at the golf club have expired. When the secretary then tells them that there’s one full membership available they agree to play a deciding round to determine who gets it.

 

And when Eileen (Sue Cleaver) reveals the surprise limo ride she’s organised for Jesse’s (John Thompson) birthday she’s less than impressed to hear he always spends his big day with his parents.

Actress Tupele Dorgu, who plays Kelly Crabtree has decided to leave Corrie early next year.

 

Tupele will leave the cobbles, when her current contract ends, after five years on the show.

 

However, before her departure, knicker-stitcher Kelly will find herself caught up in factory politics, when she catches the eye of Weatherfield’s returning prodigal son Nick Tilsley.

 

Speaking of her decision to leave the show, Tupele said: "I feel privileged to have been part of such an iconic show for five years and I am grateful to everyone at Coronation Street for the opportunities I have been given. I have however decided to leave the show and am very excited about seeking new challenges and opportunities within the industry.”

 

She has been such a wasted character. :(

 

 

dunno why roy doesnt believe tonys deathbed confession excuse... its entirely plausable and far more plausable then tony having liam killed.... although he did.

Hes probably just confused as Maria was once saying the same, and the way he did say was as if he needed to get it off his chest. Didn't realise either that Kelly Crabtree was on the Street for 5 years :mellow: 5 years and umm no proper storyline for her :lol:

How fabulous was Corrie tonight? The whole George meeting with the Barlows ... and assuming Blanche was Ken's wife. Blanche (about Deirdre) .... 'and this is Edna ... our cleaning lady'.

 

Back to the Roy / Tony story. I think the writers have done a really great job of digging themselves out of a quandarry. I don't think they realised how popular Tony's character has become with the Corrie audience. But Corrie - having 'morals' on its side ... Tony has to face the music ... so how can they make the audience hate him? The only way they can get the audience to turn against him is to have him threaten Roy. We can forgive him for killing 'dull as ditchwater' Liam ... but making him put one of the Street's best loved characters (and one of its best actors) in danger ... well its like a red rag to a bull.
