Street's Cilla in hot water
Coronation Street battleaxe Cilla Brown is joined by a dog in the bath – and it’s not her boyfriend Les Battersby.
There are disastrous consequences when Great Dane Schmeichel, which belongs to Cilla’s son Chesney, jumps into the hot tub.
Cilla, played by Wendi Peters, and slacker Les, played by Bruce Jones, decide to live it up at the Battersby home with a Hawaiian night in their new bathtub.
They are enjoying cocktails and Hawaiian pizza in the whirlpool bath, which Les bought from Charlie, the builder.
When Cilla’s son Chesney (Sam Aston) arrives back early with Schmeichel, it gets a sniff of the pizza and Chesney is unable to restrain it.
The hefty dog bounds upstairs and straight into the bath, which cannot take its weight.
The tub, complete with Cilla and Les, crashes through the ceiling but there are no broken bones.
The scenes are broadcast on Coronation Street on November 17 at 7.30pm.
