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

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 am wondering whether the unofficial status of the marriage means it will be short lived

I thought it was going to happen when they were talking about her having known about Aldi’s lies. But they just started dancing stupidly.
(And I thought it was the perfume too!)

Mollypolly2610 · 07/08/2025 22:36

I wonder if she takes that awful hair piece off in bed.

It's awful isn't it? 😖

Sorry, but I really don't believe that Dev would go for Bernie. He is a good looking, successful, business owner who has had some very attractive partners in the past - Sunita, Geena, Maya, even Tracy for a little while, and Erica. He would never go for a rough skank like Bernie. (Not bashing the actress/the woman herself, just the character.)

Chirpy Theo is giving me the creeps. When he smiles he looks so sinister. I REAEEEEELLLLY dislike him!

He really does look sinister when he smiles doesn't he? He gives me the creeps. Looks like something out of a horror movie. Like that one called Smile!

JewelleryCat · 08/08/2025 20:48

It was nice to see the inside of the Kabin again after all this time

zanahoria · 08/08/2025 21:01

Both Steve and Amy missing the obvious

The florists is worth more than Streetcars

WTH is this storyline?! Dev packing Aadi off to INDIA, after his brother Vikram found Aadi a job?!

What in the everloving stupid-ass storyline is this?! 😂

Yes he does. He’s playing this really well.

In a mature marriage where there aren’t young children it would make sense, and be fair, to leave respective businesses to their owners. My parents had a very amicable divorce where they helped each other and were as fair as possible.

zanahoria · 08/08/2025 21:19

If the charges against Theo were dropped then how come the social worker said he was violent again?

Deadringer · 08/08/2025 21:23

When did Eileen's hallway become so light and spacious, in my memory it was pokey and quite dark.

FlibbertyGibbitt · 08/08/2025 21:59

I was watching Classic Corrie ( so much better then ) anyhoo, Dev’s daughter Amber works in the shop with him, nothing mentioned about her now !

carmak · 08/08/2025 22:11

Dev and Bernie's sex life needs to be a 'no go' area, especially when I'm eating.

Ditto Todd and Theo.

George and Jenny, excellent match.

eggandonion · 08/08/2025 22:11

Amber was fabulously stroppy. Dev has forgotten her. Was Vikram his cousin who romanced a lot of ladies?
Aadi should get a job in Sainsbury's. Or Freshco with Curly.

It was the very strange camera angles in this episode. Once noticed, I couldn’t stop noticing. Scenes filmed from the rafters, always above heads with Todd/Theo in their house, Glenda/George in the cafe, Dev/Aadi both in their lounge and then around dining table and also in the pub. Either they’ve employed a new 8-foot tall camera man or a new rigger who hauls the cameras and lights to the top of the set.

It looks like George 💛 Jenny on the cards…

ExitPursuedByABare · 08/08/2025 22:58

The hall surprised me too.

Deadringer · 08/08/2025 23:01

ExitPursuedByABare · 08/08/2025 22:58

Yes it looked like it was an open space, and no sign of a front room. I love George, Jenny better not mess him about!

bizzey · 09/08/2025 01:15

The George and Jenny thing could and should work if only it hadn't been thrown in as a sudden realization from Jenny , that George is really hot !!

A slow burning friendship would have been better

Jenny sucking on that sweet with George with his hairy chest in show was a bit too quick !

And her face when Glenda was talking about the dating apps !

Too much sex and sexual innuendos in tonight's episode for my liking .humphh ....hoiks up boosoms .....😠😠. (She says with 2 little pancakes 😅😅!)

bizzey · 09/08/2025 01:18

Poor Addie ...he has always felt 2nd best to his sister and a disappointment to his dad ..
And now he is getting send off to India 😮!

digiwidgy · 09/08/2025 07:00

I am glad it’s India because I felt it was perhaps leading towards a mental health crisis and then an overdosing or similar storyline.

zanahoria · 09/08/2025 08:19

Unlike so many others, Aadi is a good kid really but he is being made out to be the devil, not least by Lauren who compared him to a rapist. Perhaps she should not nick drinks at parties. Nina and Summer could have kept an eye on it too, considering they knew it had LSD in it and Aadi had been dragged off - but apparently it is all on Aadi.

It is a shame they could not have developed a relationship between Amy and Asha - one that did not involve lying, cheating, violence or any other criminal acts - it would have been good to see two rather sweet youngsters from two of the main families get together and just be happy.

DaisyStarburst · 09/08/2025 08:34

I have a confession, I am a bit older than Bernie and always been a bit of a hippie. I have a top the same as one Bernie wears! Hers is a different colour to mine but I call mine my Bernie top!

zanahoria · 09/08/2025 08:41

I did not take to George at first but he has slowly evolved to become one of the best characters in the show, feels like a proper Corrie stalwart.

Not sure why Glenda is so much more invested in her brother's love life rather than her own. I would much rather see her on dates than George who could do with a bit of time out, especially as he is developing friendships.. Todd should take him down Canal St, George seems quite fond of the Gay scene.

Was Vikram Jai from Emmerdale?
