You can see half the cast all shiny from the heat and humidity. Grin 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!Smile

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!

I think Abi looks great!
She is a skank though. It infuriates me how she plays the moral high ground.

This show is so bloody infuriating. Theo and his antics. This could have been so good, Todd being with an abuser, but they have written Theo as the baddie from the off so there has been no build up. No romance and then the reveal of his real character . Just miserable from the get go. And Todd talking about him moving out to George. Why not just say get out my bloody house George as it’s mine not yours???And Carla and Swain, again, no build up. Just straight jnto misery and lies. And why is Carla always holding a mug. In our house it’s a game. Spot the mug. Once you see it you can’t unsee it. Sometimes she swaps the mug for her phone 😝. And don’t even get me started on Abi and her wax face and crap “affair” and the abysmal Baileys and the whole I’m your dad, your uncle, or whatever I am. It’s absolutely dire and I’m ashamed I watch it.

I hate the fact he acts like he is lord of the manor when he is a guest in the house and now he never seems to go to work much apart from the odd scene with Gary.

why would Todd want to pay for an expensive rental when he probably pays a low rent already in his mum’s house,

eggandonion · 06/08/2025 10:56

Theo and George both seem to think they are head of household. Todd should evict everyone and find a nice boyfriend.

Housewife2010 · 06/08/2025 10:59

Is Abi's face sprayed with oil before every scene? Or is it engine grease?

eggandonion · 06/08/2025 11:08

Abi has forgotten about the twins and poor Sebastian . She only cares about looking swish and romping now.

So the two high powered female bosses who own a hotel and a factory (Debbie and Carla) were fighting for the chance to live in an uninspiring small house on coronation st … and now Debbie’s settling for a flat .

I know it’s a soap and you need constant drama but the lack of any kind of realism these days is ridiculous. No thought about what real people would do in real life situations- so the characters all seem unbelievable.

I see an old character is coming back .. with new family ..

but it is on THE POSH SIDE OF THE STREET

and it has an orangery

It did not even occur to George to offer to move out

and is that hideous portrait of his dad?

eggandonion · 06/08/2025 12:47

I love the portraits of Roy Hudd and Alf. Does Ken still have Uncle Albert and Deirdre on his sideboard? And Amy and Eccles?

ithinkilikethislittlelife · 06/08/2025 13:12

I don’t mind the portraits of big past characters like Alf but Archie shuttelworth? Surely George would have him in his room. Not the lounge of a person he isn’t romantically with anymore? He was a minor character at best. It feels like the producers are trying to hammer home “nostalgia” and it falls flat and feels forced.

Deadringer · 06/08/2025 13:23

Yasmin's house was always the nicest on the street imo, not looking forward to seeing what the set designers have done to it, no doubt it will look awful like David's house and Sarah's flat, dark colours, stuff everywhere, horrible.

Definitely not! She (and her colleagues) are the cleanest mechanics ever. I laughed my head off at her perfect manicure. My husband is a mechanic and has black tipped nails!

I used to love the gloriously tacky flat Carla and Paul had when they were first in the show

Lorrymum · 06/08/2025 17:35

What happened to Yasmine's chickens?

bizzey · 06/08/2025 17:45

Ohh don't mention the chickens !

Everytime Yasmine and chickens are mentioned, I get a horrible shiver and shudder remembering that horrible "prank" what's his face did to her about her beloved Emily !
😢😢☹️.

bizzey · 06/08/2025 17:46

Where Alia living now ?
And Adam ?

bizzey · 06/08/2025 17:48

Glamour magazine had an article on all the different Korean Serums (that make you look glowy /sweaty !)

Some are a reasonable price !

I will take a hit for the team thread and maybe give one a go ! 😅

Keep me posted if you do!

I know Debbie's got dementia but wearing pyjamas to a wedding is a bit out there.

Lorrymum · 06/08/2025 20:10

Why isn't Summer at the wedding. I thought she and Bernie were family after Paul became her third father.

Notmycircusnotmyotter · 06/08/2025 20:22

Catching up on Monday's. Abi's had her lips redone!

Possibly because she knew how shit it would be? What a stupid episode! Every other episode is just karaoke!
Gemma looks beautiful in this episode though.

OlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon · 06/08/2025 20:35

Is Bernie allergic to her wedding bouquet ?

HurdyGurdy19 · 06/08/2025 20:46

Finally something that made me laugh out loud - the quads all lined up on the sofa watching the wedding, with buckets on their laps.

suburburban · 06/08/2025 20:54

Not sure how they legally got married

why did Bernie not keep quiet, it was Aadi who organised the scam

SabreIsMyFave · 06/08/2025 20:56

Theo and his inane wide grin when he is talking to Todd (and he wants his way with him!) turns my stomach! 😖
