Wow, we got through the last thread pretty quickly! (Again!)

So Betsy is still recovering from her stroke, Debbie's condition (dementia) is getting worse.

Tim and Sally still have Tim's cousin Ross's daughter Lucy in their care as Ross killed his wife - Lucy's mother, and is in prison... Or so we have been lead to believe. There's a question mark over whether Ross did kill Lucy's mum at the moment, (or if it was Lucy!) after Lucy spoke to her dad the other night and said 'what if they found out what I did!' Sally is struggling with Lucy, especially after she threw her phone at Sally and hit her in the face.

Sarah is still in prison, (for killing Theo,) and hasn't had her trial yet. She has finished with Kit, who went on to sleep with her daughter Bethany!

Bernie's aunt (Celeste) who was trying to get Todd to do a funeral for her, died a few weeks ago, but not before dropping the bombshell that she has breast cancer, and Bernie may have the gene. So may Gemma and the quads, and Kit, and Brody...

Kit was tested. He has breast cancer. He is devastated - (naturally.)

Carl has just got a job in the cab office.

Probably missed some stuff!

I mentioned this in the last thread, but I can't remember if Todd did ever do Celeste's funeral by the way... She's been dead nearly 4 weeks now. I don't think they've mentioned her funeral for about 3 weeks. And I definitely don't remember them doing it.......

Ronnie is the suspicious type isn’t he! He’ll sniff out any wrong doing ( I hope ) especially as Debbie is so vulnerable now and he is concerned around consent and what she can and can’t remember and so on.

Deadringer · 22/10/2026 17:51

I hope Carl has genuinely turned over a new leaf, he is a good character and a decent actor.

the80sweregreat · 22/10/2026 18:00

Carl is a decent actor. They all are on Corrie tbf.

zanahoria · 22/10/2026 18:25

They need Carl to be a good guy during Debbie's dementia plot.

I still think the plot is bad idea.

I particularly don't like the soap cliche of the person with terminal illness who is perky and quirky and always ready with the black humour

SabreIsMyFave · 23/10/2026 20:59

Urgh, why are they trying to ruin Debbie and Ronnie now?! Confused Getting Debbie to throw herself at that man at the bar, and suggest they go and sleep together? Just why? Hmm

I wonder if that woman (who got the free meal) will be back? (Who Debbie was in prison with?)

And what has nasty Ross got planned I wonder? There's no way he is going to 'have Gary's back.' And as for 'anything you want Gary, ANYthing!' That was just plain odd.

Who was the woman in the hotel, looking at Debbie at the end of last night's episode? I know her face but I'm not sure whether that's from Corrie or elsewhere. I'm not well today so am easily confused 😳

Wasn't she in prison with Debbie?

eggandonion · 23/10/2026 21:18

I think Brodys mum looked after Debbie a bit when Paula was having a go.
Poor Ronnie...it's very frustrating trying to look after Debbie.
Poor Gary. That Ross is vile.

YES! That was her. I knew the woman in the restaurant (Paula) was in prison with Debbie, I just couldn't remember who she was. Yes, she was the one who was aggressive towards Debbie, and Lou intervened.

I kind of started to like Lou, and would be happy if she came back. She could move into the street and take Joanie and Shanice back home. (And Brodeh!) No Mick though. Don't want him back. He was vile.

Lou might take Kit back though. I hadn't realised Brody will be half bother of Baby Beffany.

You mean the half brother of Beffany's baby?

eggandonion · 23/10/2026 22:19

I had sort of worked out Harry and baby. But Kit Sarah Beffany Lou Brodeh Harry and Baby all connect to the wider Platt family and the wider Bernie family. It's very confusing.
I need a spreadsheet or possibly some sort of family tree on a scroll.

Who is Marco?

cabus · 23/10/2026 22:29

thenightsky · 23/10/2026 22:23

Who is Marco?

Marco is Summer's (very) new boyfriend. Another wrong'un apparently.

thenightsky · 23/10/2026 22:35

Oh no, Ronnie has bailed out so much sooner than I thought he would. Poor Debbie. Sad

zanahoria · 23/10/2026 22:43

Adam and Daniel are becoming such a couple of boring old men

Yes, as I say, I am annoyed that they have messed with Ronnie and Debbie!

We don't care about Marco do we ? I can't be bothered with more prison and court.

He wanted to marry her BECAUSE she had dementia last year! They really ditched that plot. And he’d never have left someone with dementia crying and walked out.
Although she has been a bit of a nightmare recently!

eggandonion · 24/10/2026 00:02

My neighbour has dementia. Her husband just agrees with her all day long. He looks exhausted. It's draining. So although I am cross with Ronnie I understand too.

Deadringer · 24/10/2026 00:55

The consent issue with dementia is interesting though, not surprising that Ronnie is concerned about it, and not something I had ever thought about before. I hope they sort things out, Debbie needs him.

the80sweregreat · 24/10/2026 02:08

Ross plays his part so well you really hate him don’t you ! Sign of a good actor

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · 24/10/2026 03:47

Has Ross ditched the wig ?

zanahoria · 24/10/2026 07:10

eggandonion · 23/10/2026 23:54

We don't care about Marco do we ? I can't be bothered with more prison and court.

I never understand when they have so much time to fill that they decide to accelerate plots so quickly.

Couldn't we have had at least a few weeks of Summer getting to know Marco, seeing why she had fallen for him? A bit of romance before the inevitable crime stuff.

AmusedMaker · 24/10/2026 07:34

Yes Ross is a very good actor, the way he looked at James when he said they’d been out in the gay village spoke volumes.
Wont be long before Sarah works out who the father of Bethany’s baby is, if it was me I’d have sussed it within 5 minutes - so bloomin’ obvious.
I’m starting to cringe now with the whole Debbie ‘he doesn’t fancy me anymore’ thing.

Although I did laugh at the way she spoke to the prison woman.

eggandonion · 24/10/2026 09:00

Prison woman can have a personality transplant and be a carer.
