Protect Mary at all cost thank you very much (Picture: ITV)
The thing about Mary Taylor (Patti Clare) is, well we love her, and because we love her, any sign of her being remotely unhappy gives us the temptation to head over to Coronation Street and support her – and it looks like we’re going to have to do that next week.
At the forefront of Mary’s mind right now is that all-important AmDram play.
She’s in the middle of rehearsals alongside the likes of Brian (Peter Gunn), Ken (William Roache) and Wendy (Roberta Kerr) but obviously, things haven’t been easy.
Mary is passionate, alright? She’s a passionate, aspiring actress who’s taken this far too seriously and a few weeks ago, she got riled up over Ken prioritising time with Wendy instead of practicing the lines for the play.
The horror!
Next week, Brian and Mary attend rehearsals at the Community Centre with Ken and Nigel.
During a spare moment, Nigel confides in Ken that he’s going to approach an actress friend with a view to replacing Mary.
We were never that keen on Nigel, anyways.
