We're in the middle of the long hot Summer of 2025. CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

You can see half the cast all shiny from the heat and humidity. And probably will for a couple more months yet at least!

Not a lot has changed since the beginning of the last thread!

Nina and Summer had a close shave when the police thought they'd attacked Gary when they were 'tripping.' Turned out it was Lou (who has been arrested.)

Lauren is falling for Aadi (he is cute to be fair.)

Debbie is fairly stable but sadly still has dementia.

Looks like Mick is going to cause trouble again, after being arrested for killing Craig. And Sally and Tim have been taking care of his and Lou's children.

Not much to be seen of the older characters, (I mean - like people who have been there 20+ years, not just the ones who've been there from the 1960s/1970s etc,) and Corrie is a little bit crime, and doom heavy at the moment.

But we do have a few 'light-hearted' moments to keep us going.

George and Glenda are always worth watching, Tim and Steve are funny together. Not fond of Cassie, but am warming to her and Steve being together, (and am warming to her a bit...) Debbie is a star and it's sad that she's ill, and DeeDee appears to be pining for her baby that she has 'given' to her brother James. James is being a bit of an arse to her too. Hope the little girl (Laila) stays in Coronation Street! She is adorable!

Kev has been given the all clear and doesn't have cancer now, but is telling everyone he does. Tyrone has caught him out though, and told him he needs to tell Abi!

Swain has been given desk duties, and counselling, (after the trauma of the death of her colleague Craig,) but isn't taking to the counselling, as she thinks she's fine.

Sorry if I've missed anything!

Thank you for the recap and thread. People keep vanishing...Adam has reappeared. And where is Ryan?

Oh yeah, where are they? Every time me and my DH notice someone hasn't been there for weeks on end, they re-appear within 3-4 episodes! Maybe Ryan will pop up this week.

I was glad to see Gary back. I hope he deals severely with Lou and Mick.

Thanks for the new thread and recap 🙂

It’s strange when characters disappear, I immediately forget about them! Then they reappear and I think “oh yeh, I’d forgotten about you!” I really mustn’t invest much! Or I’ve got dementia like Debbie!

Thanks for new thread x

I really want dr gadass to reveal a mixup with Debbie's records.

or they find a miracle cure in Germany and everyone raises the money with sponsored bike rides

if they don't then they are ruining their best character

I suppose Carl has German connections. That might work.

Thanks for the new thread

Following on from last thread.
The main issue for me when someone has facial work done is you don't think oh so and so is looking good, you think oh they have had face work done.
They don't look better or younger just " done"
Strange in the acting profession

I read a while ago that period dramas/ films are struggling to cast young women due to the amount of work done which looks very out of place and unauthentic

Thank you for new thread.
I know the storyline’s are ridiculous a lot of the time, but I’m still a massive fan of Coronation Street.

I watch it more out of habit than anything else. I do enjoy the chat on here though.

It's giving me the absolute rage tonight. How could anyone just walk into a school and wander around at will? I've never known a school have such lax security.

Why aren't the police swarming all over Coronation Street. That would surely be the first place they'd look for him

This is what happens when Craig isn't around. Mayhem.

And the headmistress has a door that can’t be unlocked from inside and no panic alarm!

And Sally leaves her phone!

Theyre doing the arty camera work again!

Surely the first place the police would go is Coronation St?

Im amazed Bernie hasn’t wandered into the street yet.

And I’m talking to myself!🤣

I can't roll my eyes any harder, or I'll be permanently looking at the back of my head from the inside.

So many stupid situations tonight. I can't believe these storyliners and scriptwriters are actually getting paid for this claptrap.

Yet another cop running in unarmed with no radio. I thought Kit had more sense!

I hate Swarla, that is all.

Swarla?

Swain and Carla as a couple

Who was the lad in the school scene standing next to Sam? Also seen on the street towards the end, him with Sam and a girl with long hair.

Where WAS Swain tonight? Are her and Carla away? or just not featured tonight

Jake I think.
