The Case of the Missing Tablecloth: A Coronation Street Mystery
Cassie: Oh, what on earth has happened to the tablecloth?
Ken (to Tracy): Um, have you any idea where the tablecloth is?
Tracy: Hmm, I’m sure Cila Black here has spilt the tea about me being drunk as a skunk and nearly burning the house down. Slight exaggeration. Anyway, in my defence, on reflection, she’s to blame.
Ken: No, idea what you’re talking about.
Tracy: Practically poured it down my neck.
Cassie: Actually, Tracy, love, I think you’ll find I haven’t said a word. And as for forcing booze down your screech..
Ken: You were drunk? Was she?
Cassie: I can’t lie. It’s not in my nature. Yes, she was. Candles burning, tablecloth practically ablaze the lot. It’s a good job I came on when I did.
Ken: Really?
Cassie: Yeah, I mean I have been in rehab with some chronic alcoholics but even I was like, “wow.”
Mystery Solved. The end. 😆
