CATCH-UP - A deathly Paul

He's gone. The Connor family now only has raven-haired members left, as Paul Connor and his more generalised darkish hair are no more.

Michelle didn't manage to get to the hospital in time to say goodbye. She wouldn't have gone at all if Steve hadn't persuaded her (he's a keeper, that one). When she finally did arrive, Carla was sobbing over her dearly departed, and Liam was in tears, too. Soon we had a weeping Connor combo (picture borrowed from itv.com website).

Later on, Leanne tried to explain things to Liam, but the poor thing is just raw with grief and literally threw her out in the street (much to the amusement of a passing Kelly).

Elsewhere, Ken offered to move out of Denise's. Daniel looked thrilled with that plan, but Denise said of course Ken must stay as long as he likes.

Eileen and Jerry (formerly known as Sinbad off Brookie) bonded while cleaning up at Ashley and Claire's. That's when good neighbours become good friends (I am really mixing up my soaps now).

And David Platt did his biology exam. This was because Amber bet him that he wouldn't pass. He hasn't done his other exams and doesn't plan to do any future ones, and Gail can't make him - she's not as cunning as Amber, you see.
