THOSE Coronation Street script-writers don't miss a trick, do they?

Young Chesney was telling Sophie Webster not to bother his Uncle Les (Battersby) because he was waiting for the Jeremy Kyle Show to start on daytime TV.

"Uncle Les doesn't believe that there are people like that around!" the lad tells his pal, unaware of the supreme irony that the Kyle show deals exclusively with people exactly like the dreaded Les.

Sharp, funny and bang up-to-date.
