Heading into early summer 2025. CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Poor Craig met his maker after Mick hurt him bad
He was a bit boring, but I can't help but feel sad
Mick's wife Lou left him, can't blame her quite frankly
He's abusive and repugnant inside and out, and quite manky

Mick wants to see Kit as he knows he slept with Lou
He's got Bernie now, but what is he going to to do?
Mick's nasty little son is out of the STC
Will he be as bad as Mick, I guess we'll have to wait and see

Debbie's quite ill, she's dumped Ronnie and he's very sad
Kevin's still battling cancer, and he's getting quite bad
Glenda's the new landady of the pub now, and Jenny and Daisy are gone
And Julie has died very suddenly, I hoped she'd go on and on.

(I'm sure there's some more things going on right now, but I've only just woken up after a rough night's sleep.) 😆

.

His name lives on at the flower shop

That has gotta be as good as a tree or bench

although I cannot even remember how he died

Did Phelen kill him?

It's bugging me how Kit sent Beth away and told her she couldn't tell Craig why, breaking his and Kirks' heart, and now 'the family' have asked Kit to do a speech at the memorial?

She has enough money to get her nails done

I have a feeling James and Todd will get together

Oh bloody bollocks. 😂

Brody is going to end up being KIT'S son - I think.

LOL, what a wally! (Me!) 😆

Yes I think so too, although @JewelleryCat mentioned Todd maybe getting together with James. That might work as they both have a personality. Swain is boring and one dimensional IMO, and Theo (as has been said) is dull, he looks like a Ken doll, and he (the actor) can't act for shit! 😬

So are we now going to get Betsy looking into her dead mum's police corruption thing?

More boring crime/police station scenes coming up.

@SabreIsMyFave its only a guess and might not happen but I thought they had more chemistry in the few minutes together in the pub than Theo and Todd do in their scenes

As if Theos wife would allow him to walk back into the house as though he's not been shacked up with another msn
Danielle is fiesty. She woukd kick off and send Theo straight back to Todd with his half empty weekend bag of the whitest vests ever.

Millie isn't pregnant but I found it weird that Theo instantly decided to just move back into the family home. It never entered his head thar he might not be welcome. How does it solve his daughters' teenage pregnancy anyway? Him and Danielle are at loggerheads.
Theo and Todd behaved badly. Theo should have shown his wife more respect instead of going behind her back in.the first place. However, Todd seems unable to stick up for himself and allows Theo to walk all over him. Theo made a huge statement when he left his wife for another man. He can't just go back to live with her whenever one of their children is in crisis. If I was Todd's friend irl I'd be telling him to LTB. Hes cocklodged at Eileen's long enough.

I am not even sure how she would manage that even with Lauren's assistance.

I bet her dad is Steve McDonald

Oh the lovely Dr Ali, biological son of Michelle, he would have been a medical student making donations for a fee.

just checked

he was killed - accidentally in crossfire - by some lowlife Gary was involved with in his loan shark days

Gary and Lou will be shagging next

I agree.

You can just see it coming can't you? It's already started... 🙄

Gary hiding the secret 'thanks for having my back' message from Lou, and Corrie portraying Maria as a nagging harridan having a go at poor Lou who 'isn't her husband' so 'don't pick on her!' 🙄

And now yes, @thenightsky we now have Betsy digging into what her other mum (allegedly) did. So another crime story to bore us........ 😴

@Thequeenofwishfulthinking I agree. No way would Danielle have had Theo moving back in, just because their daughter is allegedly pregnant (as I said I don't believe she is.)

Such bullpoo! 💩

Maria is a horrible person. I'm sure she didn't used to be.
Feel like im being gaslighted by the writers these days as they change the narrative.so frequently.

I'm hoping for another tram crash plus a gas explosion in the police station, which is then rebuilt 500 miles away.
Keep a handful of the cast, new characters need 3 references and a DBS check to move into Coronation St, which will become a gated community to keep the gangsters out.
Mardy teenagers not allowed either.
Bring back Peter but not Simon.

Is she?
Tbh Gary is annoying with his white Knight syndrome.
He also charged to the rescue when Sarah was in trouble and hid it from Maria
He's a twat

I take it that Swain and Betsy have forgotten about their home? Surely the leak/flood has been rectified by now?

Carla was going to buy the Platt house, before the game of pass the parcel with the holdall stuffed full of cash somehow resolved the financial crisis. Is she going to buy Yasmeen's house?

What was all the recent big show around Swain's sneezes for? I thought it was going to lead to some kind of health scare, but that's all stopped again. Maybe it was just the actor having a cold/allergy and "keeping calm and carrying on"?

Agree with PP re Todd and Theo. Just can't see them together. I did wonder if James was going to split them up and keep one for himself. And also agree that Theo moving back home is just plain ridiculous. Not a chance that Danielle would have him back, so I wonder where they're going with this storyline

Ahh thank you.

That's because he has always loved Sarah. Maria is second best and always will be. Gary only stayed with Maria because Sarah didn't want him.

@FeatherDawn she speaks to everybody like shit these days apart from Liam. She swans around with a chip on her shoulder spoiling for an argument with anyone she meets. She won't be pleasant to be around at home.

Gary and Maria have always seemed mismatched to me, they seemed to just match them up as they were both single.

He actually seems better suited to Lou, just like he always fancied Kelly's mum Laura.

Have they thrown Gary's junk shop in the skip?

He used to sell the sort of tat that is leftover at a car boot sale.

He is much better running the builders, at least there is potential for plots if they get beyond the lame banter about tartan paint.
