Fran the Kiss-A-Scam Strikes Again...bow-chika-bow-waw

Fran is up to her old tricks and is attempting to use her eeeeeeeeeeevil kissing to further her plot for revenge. She and Lenny were locking lips an obscene amount of times in this episode - jeez, get a room! At one point, Fran the Kiss-A-Scam cleverly used her eeeeeeeevil kissing to pick pocket Lenny and made sure she was invited to his dinner with dodgy dealer Vince the Jeweller. As always, DI Donald was lurking in the shadows to encourage Fran to get some dirt on Lenny, I must admit, I am beginning to wonder if the people of Shieldinch are really paying attention - why is no one noticing Frances and DI Donald when they are in the middle of Montego Street talking?! DI(rty) Donald suddenly got a lot more interesting this week didn't he? He's not just a lean mean Lenny stalking machine, he is also a bit of a sleaze! While he was fitting Frances with her wire, he was ogling her and getting a bit hot under the collar - tut tut! I love the 'bow-chika-bow-waw' music that was playing over this scene! DI(rty) Donald managed to resist one of Fran's evil kisses this time, but I think he's got it bad, will he be able to keep his hands off her in future?

This week on the Antique's Roadshow, we'll be in Shieldinch where our guest expert Gabriel Brodie will be showing you how to restore an antique chair. Just kidding, no River City hasn't turned into an antique's show but we did see a lot of wood glue action. Gabriel accidentally pulled the arm off the antique chair Leyla bought Michael as a Christmas present which resulted in some very amusing chair related antics! Gabe even enlisted the help of Liz, who although she protested, really enjoyed all the clandestine activities! I particularly loved it when she attempted to stop Leyla seeing the absolutely HUGE chair by standing in front of it- very, very funny! However, after Leyla found out and shouted at him, Gabe realised that he had a very funny, fuzzy feeling inside - could he be falling for his brother's wife? Well, from the looks of the pictures in the press this week here and here, the answer is YES! I know it's wrong, but I love a bit of festive adultery!



Nicole and Stevie were extremely hormonal teenagers this week! Nicole decided that she was ready to lose her virginity but they just couldn't find any time alone so they settled on the romantic setting of the Health Centre for their 'first time'. Personally, I've always found doctor's surgeries very sexy: stethoscopes, syringes, sick bags and all those posters about incontinence. Unfortunately, Nicole didn't feel the same and told Stevie that she'd changed her mind, she wants her first time to special and romantic. Lovely Stevie told her that he was quite prepared to wait and didn't want to put any pressure on her - aaaw.



Next week, is Christmas Day in Shieldinch so make you tune in to see that kiss between Leyla and Gabriel and watch the fireworks at the Mullen's house when Grandpa Lenny pops round for Christmas dinner! Ooooh , I can't wait! And remember, if you miss it on Tuesday, this week's repeat will be on Christmas Eve - Saturday 24th December at 12.30pm on BBC One.
