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!

.

Yes, agree that the bum crack thing is hardly ‘shocking. Plenty of birthday cards have pictures of them, and have done for years. It was just a way to drop Abi in it I guess.

can’t work out why Gary is so worked up about the whole Theo / Noah thing. Seems really over the top for someone who isn’t really involved.
although the way the storylines are going it will probably come out that Gary is secretly gay.

If Theo was a believable character I'd say it was because Gary is being manipulated by him but he's so two dimensional it doesn't ring true so it just comes across as puzzling/silly. Like so much in Corrie just now

Theo gets less and less attractive with every episode.

What the heck is wrong with his hair?

He certainly spends more time blow drying it than the average scaffolder, looking a bit like George Michael

Brody's curly locks amuse me, not the usual style preferred by young teen thugs

Just watched “Betsy” give a tour of their new house on Instagram. Worth a look to see the kitchen in all its glory! No spoilers if you want to search on Insta for https://www.instagram.com/coronationstreet

Theo has left his hair products in the family home. Trim up North needs to reopen.

Yes it’s a bit Bouffant

Gary is struggling with having been beaten up by a 'girl' - though how being clobbered from behind with a piece of wood makes you any less manly I dunno, are men meant to have eyes in the backs of their heads?

So as a result, he is trying to be as alpha macho male as possible and looking for 'good' reasons to beat shit out of someone to prove he is still all man.

Oooooh, they've remembered Dorin!

What's the betting that Steve will be playing hide and seek with him, and Dorin goes and hides inside the fridge that the council are due to take away.

Urgh I LOATHE Theo. I wish Garreh would kill him! 😆 The actor is appalling!

Why on earth is Steve left looking after Dorin? (Who hasn't been mentioned in about half a year!) Did we even see Dorin tonight?

Also, I cannot stand Hope. Sick of her. 😖

Likewise, she is so up herself

Irl you would just say Hope delete that photo and you can have your phone back. No need for all that nonsense. Gary is having trouble with >ahem< 'little Gary' so he feels emasculated and is playing the big man.

Perhaps Gary's about to have a gay interlude.

He'll be one of the few who hasn't 🙄. (yet)

It's about his turn. 🥺

So Ruby is a summer camp! Do they exist in the UK?

Let's hope the writers don't cast their eyes on Roy!

PGL

Tyrone and Fizz are skint. Ruby must be at a summer camp for skint families with an income stream.

Yes give her the phone and make her open gallery and delete photo

also when she said she was going to still upload photo after Tyrone was letting her go out etc

Yeah, she is a nasty little shit isn't she? 😆 Also, I noticed we did see Dorin after all, towards the end of last night's episode. I was only part way through watching it last night, (when I posted about him,) and had only heard his voice.

Yes not nice and Fizz is so weak

I've lost track of the Dorin story. Why is he still living with Tyrone? Is it a permanent situation?

I only saw the last 15 minutes. Steve needs to find somewhere else to live. There must be a room in the Rovers. He doesn't need to be squeezed in to a crowded house.
