Geoff Metcalfe steps up his campaign when Yasmeen fights back in this one-hour episode
Coronation Street's Geoff Metcalfe undermines Alya’s efforts to get Yasmeen to go to work, insisting she should stay at home with him looking after her. Yasmeen proudly calls him her protector. Sally and Tim call to check on Yasmeen and invite her out to the Rovers. Geoff’s pleased when Yasmeen declines their invitation.
Geoff is disappointed when a newly confident Yasmeen tells him her mugger has been arrested and is embarrassed when Craig shows him up at a self defence class especially when Yasmeen and the others share a laugh at his expense.
Alya brings Ryan and his two DJ mates back to No.6 after a night out. With Geoff asleep in bed, Yasmeen gamely joins the party. Geoff’s annoyed to find he enjoying a drink and a laugh with Alya, Ryan and co.
