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 completely agree re George, it looks like a random 'split them up' plot device.

You haven't factored in the fact that Betsy is thick plus entitled @WiddlinDiddlin 😆 She has got away with so much other stuff, a stolen van is a minor detail.

And I am so fed up with her whingeing about her arm!

Clawdy · 26/04/2025 17:07

Julie's interference in Eileen's relationship is ridiculous. As Eileen said, Brian is no Marlon Brando!

WiddlinDiddlin · 26/04/2025 17:10

Well yes, she is spectacularly thick, and just thinks she can do the stuttering lamb thing to get away with stuff every time!

stampin · 26/04/2025 17:34

Julie needs to keep her nose out of other people's love lives. If George gets the heave ho from Eyelash, I'll be mightily upset.

stampin · 26/04/2025 17:39

I'm hoping that Daisy does a runner with all the money. Her mother and her stepmother are dreadful. Plus....Dom? Attractive? Scraping the barrel time!

eggandonion · 26/04/2025 18:31

I don't care who gets the money. This is so pointless.

Oh I see. Thanks @Shellingbynight

Not a dumping offence really is it? [assuming that's where this is going]

Perhaps she is just sick of being called Eyelash

zanahoria · 26/04/2025 19:29

eggandonion · 26/04/2025 15:30

I think she has had a cold since Wednesday. So she has been in the prison, adopted Roy and crashed a van. Where does Lauren live?

Nobody knows

Anyone else get Meg Mortimer/Crossroads Motel vibes every time we see Debbie behind the desk in the Chariot Square Hotel?

dogsandcatsandhorses · 27/04/2025 08:27

Philip Lowrie has died. Won’t let me post a link. But on news page of Manchester News.

Played Dennis Tanner in first ever episode then returned many years later and married Rita.

Shellingbynight · 27/04/2025 08:33

Dennis was a great character. RIP Philip Lowrie.

This article has a fab photo of the original cast.

Chariot Square does have a seventies vibe but do not remember the Crossroads Motel being that sleazy.

JewelleryCat · 27/04/2025 08:44

That is a good photo of the original cast. Corrie should be brought back to that and not have murder and deception around every corner and to keep the good cast instead of giving them storylines where they’ll unfortunately pass away like Julie

What a great photo. Love little Minnie Caldwell in her flower pot hat. Is that Martha Longhurst in front of her, without her specs on?

Yes it is.

Gawd I can name all of them

MonickerMonica · 27/04/2025 11:48

@TellingBone

Ha! I was about to ask can anyone name them all! So far that makes two of us 🥳

Who wants to be Ena?

Nearly Easter already!  CORONATION STREET THREAD. **NO SPOILERS PLEASE.**
stampin · 27/04/2025 13:36

I think I look rather more like Ena than I would like to be honest!

Couldn't manage a milk stout though. Wine For me.

They wouldn't have stood for the carry on of young folk nowadays.

The sets used to shake in Crossroads! Noel Gordon played a great Meg.

AmusedMaker · 27/04/2025 16:57

Great photo!
The good old days when the street concentrated on its older characters and didn’t bore us with stroppy teens and youth offender units.
