Todd has got a new beau, and he looks like a Ken doll
And it turns out he's got a wife too
Things never go smoothly for Todd do they really?
What on earth is he going to do?

Julie's still suffering with cancer it seems,
and Kev is still ill with it - how sad
Now Debbie's very likely got dementia
Which is really very bad.

New guy Mick and his missus are loathsome
I hope they leave really soon
I want to just grab them and drop kick them hard
So they end up on the dark side of the moon

DeeDee has had Joels baby, but doesn't want her
And her brother's stepped up to be her dad
But I think she's wavering and getting a bit attached
If she gives her baby up she may be sad.

DeeDee's about to take action for the poor treatment she had
When she was in labour and about to give birth
I hope she gets justice and gets treated right
And gets compensated for what she is worth

Dorin is back, he's incredibly cute
And I have to say DeeDee's baby is too (edit by request)
I hope they don't turn into little shits
Like the children in Corrie tend to do!

Daisy and Jenny have proper fallen out
Over the pub and money and debts
I wonder who'll end up owning it and running it
I think we should take some bets!

I think that's most of what's going on! (Sorry if I've left owt out!)

I think it should be, (being Friday,) but I'm not 100% sure. Smile

Checking in!

Great new thread opener!

JewelleryCat · 11/04/2025 13:34

I know timings over the last week or two have been confusing because of football but my tv guide says it’s on tonight at 8pm 🙂

Thank you for the new thread!

Watching the Debbie and doctor episode...I have a friend who developed a form of epilepsy with similar symptoms, about menopause time. So that is where I would have begun my medical investigation.
She is on very successful medication now. Maybe the writers could diagnose Debbie with similar? David is very successfully medicated for his form of epilepsy.

SabreIsMyFave · 11/04/2025 15:20

Hi all. If you're wondering what the 'edit by request' is on the opening post. I realised I had made a spelling error a few hours after I posted this thread, and I asked MN to correct it. Smile

thanks for the new thread.

HaddyAbrams · 11/04/2025 15:32

Just checking in so I don't lose you.

I thought some of Debbie's symptoms seemed like absent seizures, which is a form of epilepsy. Although I've also known similar symptoms in dementia and brain tumors. (I'm not a doctor) But surely all of those possibilities should be investigated?

Shellingbynight · 11/04/2025 16:36

David is so successfully medicated for his epilepsy no one remember he’s got it!

But yes I agree that the doc could have told Debbie the tests were to rule out epilepsy. Corrie do like to thunder ahead once they start a plot, much like they have with Todd and his married Ken Doll. And despite looking perfectly health now, I bet Julie is dead by summer.

And @SabreIsMyFave I agree about drop kicking Mick😆

AmusedMaker · 11/04/2025 16:48

Thank you SabreIsMyFave!

eggandonion · 11/04/2025 17:20

I don't know if anyone is medically qualified on the thread, but everyone has a degree in soap diagnosis.
I like Ronnie and Debbie.

TizerorFizz · 11/04/2025 17:25

Corrie has become so dismal. Never ending hospital scenes, annger and angst! Funny characters, sharp one liners and funny situations all but gone. Loads of actors get cleared out and it’s just anger, hospital plots and stupidity that’s left. Everyone is ill or angry. Some decent acting but some is woeful. Corrie used to to be the antidote to East Enders. I would live to see classy writing again. Every time someone is in hospital a character will ask “but they are going to be alright aren’t they, doctor?” I really think the writing has gone downhill.

ArabellaFishwife · 11/04/2025 20:48

Hands up anyone who remembers Kev and Debbie having a little brother. No, me neither.

aspidernamedfluffy · 11/04/2025 20:49

Wow script writers.... rarely seen sibling arrives on scene and coincidentally meets their inlaw who just happens to be the person they came onto a few moments before. .your originality is, well non-existent really. Yaawwwwn

Never heard him mentioned!

Getupat8amnow · 11/04/2025 20:52

Thanks for the new thread. I prefer these threads to the actual programme now. It is on but I hardly take notice of it. I will follow the Debbie storyline even though I am furious with the writers doing this to one of the best characters on the street.

Also Debbie and Kevin’s brother Carl, just like Kit being introduced- kill off one sibling (Paul) and at the same time introduce a new sibling.

Coronation Street I’d absolutely dire now.

InALonelyWorld · 11/04/2025 20:56

I guess they are recycling the script for Abi to give Kev a taste of his own history when he cheated with Molly(?) when Sally had cancer? 🙄

Anonym00se · 11/04/2025 20:56

Dorin has an amazingly English accent for a Romanian child with a Romanian primary care giver.

aspidernamedfluffy · 11/04/2025 21:00

Am I the only person who finds Dorian's constant interruptions annoying and not cute at all?

Fiery30 · 11/04/2025 21:05

I am surprised that Carl didn't know what Abi looks like and vice-versa. Haven't the family shared/showed pics?

Also, how can Alina just drop off her son at Tyrone's as a surprise without even arranging anything first? Makes no sense.

thenightsky · 11/04/2025 21:17

I hate Steve and Cassy together. They just don't seem to click as a couple.

thenightsky · 11/04/2025 21:19

Lorrymum · 11/04/2025 20:49

Never heard him mentioned!

He was a half brother I think. Born to Debbie and Kevin's dad's 2nd wife in Germany.
