A tale of two punches

In last night's episode of 'Coronation Street', two punches were thrown in anger - with remarkably different outcomes.

Fiz, fired up into a jealous rage over Molly Compton's stealthy seduction of Kirk, played right into the hands of the baker's daughter by smacking her in the phiz in front of a packed Rovers.

Meanwhile, Nathan (who, like Craig Charles's Lloyd, has been deftly brought into the centre stage from the wings) was sufficiently riled by Ashley's verbal lambasting of his girlfriend Tracey to plant a similar right hook in the face of the butcher's son.

Someone didn't do a very good job with the dubbed-on sound effects, though. Nathan's haymaker seemed to make a dull impact yet supposedly detached Ashley's retina, whereas Fiz's punch was accompanied by a sharp crack yet Molly was left with little more than a bleeding nose and a self-satisfied smirk.

Yes, I know what you're thinking. I should get out more. But at least I wasn't watching 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here', that's all I can say.
