Now in October 2025. CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Carrying on from the last thread.

Asha took an overdose, as she has been depressed and low, but she's OK (physically.) Recently been attacked by a horrible racist woman who seems to have got away with it thus far!

Brody - Kit's son - is starting to become 'nice,' like (nearly) all the bad kids do!

Tim has just met up with a woman he knew from years ago... An ex flame I think. Sally is not happy!

Jenny has left!

Bethany is back! Lost her journo job. Again!

Todd is still in a bad, toxic relationship with Theo! Lego hair.

Lisa Swain's deceased wife Becky has risen from the grave! Threatening Lisa and Carla's relationship.

Kev's brother Carl enjoys having sex - with anyone really. Abi believes that Carl loves her. He doesn't!

Tyrone's not having a good time lately! He's in a bad way after being hit by a car.

Probably some more stuff going on that I've missed.

I wonder where she bought her clothes they really suit her

I think they gave her Stu's old wardrobe, the stuff from when he was living on the streets.

The plot also shows up what gullible idiot DS Swain is - a detective with literally no powers of detection

Costello needs to up his game. The head of Sally's racehorse on Becky's bed should do the trick.
Why is Carla letting them mug her off? Is she the new Gail?

Duplicate post.

.

Yeah, I wonder why Carla is letting all this happen too. I can't imagine any woman allowing her partner's ex to live with them 'because she has nowhere else to go.'

As I said earlier though, Becky has Betsy as ammo. She can emotionally manipulate Lisa and Carla to a degree. Neither one of them wants to alienate Betsy, or have her go off into the wilderness with Becky.

So maybe that's why Carla is putting up with it. I'd have walked by now personally.

Changing the subject a bit, regarding the scene where Dev, Steve, and Kevin were talking together - when they had the dart board (on Monday 23rd November 2025's episode,) Kevin looked like a really frail old man. I'm pretty sure he and Dev are about the same age, and Steve isn't loads younger, but Kevin looked so frail and small, and kind of weak compared to them.

Dev and Steve looked like tall-ish, quite sturdy men, but Kevin seemed quite 'small...' These pics illustrates it a bit (when it comes up) but you could see it better on the TV.

I don't think Michael LeVell has been in the best of health in the recent past though has he?

I know it is twenty years back but Kev can sill look quite boy-ish in Classic Corrie.

Michael LeVell has had his problems but I assume they are making him up to look frail to contrast him with his younger brother/love rival

He must weak if he cannot walk to the Flying Horse or Weathy Arms while he boycotts the Rovers

I think he's quite short in stature, but now he's lost weight it makes him look even smaller. I've noticed he has a bit of tremor too.

I think you may be right. One of my grandfathers was 5 ft 5" at his maximum height, but he was a strong invincible man who fought in the second world war, and he always appeared big and he appeared to 'walk tall' IYSWIM. His name was David, and one of his sons was called David too (my uncle Dave.) So everyone called my grandfather Big Dave and my uncle 'little Dave.' Even though my uncle Dave was 5" taller than my grandfather. 😆

When my grandfather hit around 72-73, he started to get various ailments, and lost weight, and got weak and frail, and he did look so tiny then. As you say, I think it's Kevin losing weight (and also not being very tall) that's making him look 'small.' Because I have never thought of him as small, or short before.

Still more attractive than Carl Chuckle though. What on earth was Abby thinking?

I can't argue with that!

On Monday Fizz was saying she hardly got any sleep as little Dorin got into bed with her to sleep , and took up most of the bed ..or something..

How is Tyrone going to look after the lad without Fizz ??

Good question. Where on earth do they all sleep? The houses in Corrie are like the wardrobe in Narnia! 😆

What happened to Dorin's mother? Where did she go?

Dorins mum had thugs/gangsters after her and threatening her or something .

So lovely little Dorin is here without any trauma at all about being away from his mummy !!

Dorins mum had thugs/gangsters after her and threatening her or something .

It's quite the theme that the SW fall back on rather than putting any thought into storylines.

but he can still hit people with spanners

It is one of those themes they have borrowed from EastEnders.

It annoys me that modern soaps keep borrowing from each other, probably because producers move between them, I would prefer it if they kept a distinctive character.

Minnie Caldwell never had bad guys after her

Bloody ridiculous storyline!

Costello apparently had the woman who was buried in Undead Becky's place, offed in order to do that, she didn't die by accident at all. Or so he says. That is what he is referring to when he says 'you know what I am capable of'.

Why on earth does Lisa fall for Becky blubbing in terror, she's meant to be some ace cop double hard bastard undercover ninja... hiding in the FIRST place people would look for her, with her wife and kid, and crying her wossnames off is not what any decent under cover cop would do!

Swain is proving what a shit cop she is too, believing the wreath, the mysterious person watching, the blubbing... she will undoubtedly believe whatever it is Becky is paying someone to do next, hook line and sinker!

Agree about Kevin.
he hasn’t looked ( or sounded ) well for a while.
I thought he was just acting what with his cancer storyline - but he isn’t. something definitely not right.

yes he doesn’t go upstairs

Becky and Theo are the worst and most loathesome characters corrie has had for some time.
So many of the storylines seem to be about manipulation, lying and coercive behaviour these days. I really miss the humour it used to have. 😒

Neither one of them wants to alienate Betsy, or have her go off into the wilderness with Becky. @SabreIsMyFave Carla is missing the ideal opportunity to get rid of Betsy!😆

Poor Dorin. And more to the point, how is Ty going to the loo - bucket?!

Kev nowadays looks way older than Sal. Back in the day they looked comparable (and the Sally actor is actually two years older than him - he's only 60). I know Michael Levell had some problems in the past, don't know if he still does. I'm glad he is still able to work.

I guess one of his sisters could make an effort

I hope for his sake it is Ruby not Hope
