RT Review by David Crawford

The ructions caused by the New YearrCOs rCLeventrCY continue. Relations are strained and one personrCOs attempt to make amends falls on deaf ears.

The staff at the Bull are under pressure after a mysterious man arrives
in Ambridge. Kenton starts acting erratically and when he tells an
outrageous lie, Jolene (Buffy Davies) reaches the end of her tether.

The Aldridges have a tense stand-off, the Carters are confronted by a
face from the past, and Akram faces a dilemma.

George wasn't credited either. This was the third week that he was
omitted. I assume that was so that people looking ahead wouldn't know
whether he had survived. Seems a long time to keep it up though.

Clive was in the Truth and Lies thing on New Year's Day, which made me
think we might hear from him soon. In that, he was credited as Alex
Jones (as has previously been the case). The last time that we heard
from Clive in TA proper, was over three weeks in August/September 2024.
He was not credited then either. He is not credited for the coming week
so, unless he is staying for more than a couple of weeks, he may come
and go withough credit once more.

"Pass."
"Close enough." (C) The Two Ronnies, one of their Mastermind sketches.
Though of course Kosmo is right, the artist in question is creating a
Cloive I find only too believable (and horrible).
