Countdown to Christmas 2025! CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Christmas is close, 🎄 we've had minus temperatures for a wee while, and the darker days and sunset by 4pm is with us.

Let Undead Becky continue to bore and annoy us! Let nasty Theo continue to infuriate us! Let the potential child grooming storylines shock us! Let Carl Chuckle Brother continue to shag anything with a pulse! (And hopefully dump Abi!) AND let's get ready for Christmaaaaaaaaaas!!!!!! 🎅❄🎄

The ring tone on my phone 😮

Well it’s different 😀

What’s the history with Eva & Adam?
were they in a relationship ?

😆 Quite soon! My mum told us off the next day for doing it. She said 'don't pretend it wasn't you!'

😂

I recall an on-off/on off thing with them that never really went anywhere some Some 8-ish years ago maybe... Hope this helps - it's from Google...

In Coronation Street, Eva Price and Adam Barlow had a complicated, on-off relationship marked by attraction, misunderstandings, and interference from others, including Eva's pregnancy scare with Aidan's baby and Adam's feelings for her after she'd left Weatherfield, with recent storylines showing Maggie Driscoll (Adam's mother) being suspicious of their lingering connection, suggesting unresolved feelings despite Eva's relationship with Ben.

Key Moments in Their Relationship:

• Initial Spark & Kiss: Adam had a long-standing crush, and they eventually kissed, starting a relationship, though Eva later ended it due to Aidan.
• Pregnancy Drama: Eva discovered she was pregnant with Aidan's baby, leading her to call things off with Adam as she dealt with that revelation.
• "Just Fun" Phase: At one point, Adam suggested they were just looking for casual fun, but Eva wanted more, causing friction.
• Attempted Reconciliation: They tried to make things work, but Adam felt Eva was still comparing him to Aidan, and he worried about moving too fast.
• Departure to France: Eva decided to leave Weatherfield with Adam for a fresh start, professing her love, but Adam later questioned if she truly loved him or just needed him.
• Recent Developments (2025): After Eva returned to the Cobbles, she's been involved with Ben, but she and Adam have had moments that make his mother, Maggie, and viewers suspect they still have feelings, especially after an embrace at a Halloween party. Adam left Weatherfield after Eva's departure but recently returned, and they've been seen confiding in each other, leading to speculation about unfinished business.

Overall Dynamic:
Their connection is characterized by passion but also instability, often complicated by Eva's past with Aidan and Adam's insecurities about being a rebound, even as they maintain a strong bond and friendship

Maggie Driscoll (Adam's mother)

Is she?

I am just checking in as i am very behind on this thread, only at page 7! Looking forward to catching up with everyone's comments.

Thanks SabrelsMyFave 🙂

YW

Welcome back!

Was that AI, @SabreIsMyFave ? Because Adam's mother is Susan Barlow not Ma Driscoll. It probably meant Ma D is Ben's mother.

I find AI quite often gets soap stuff wrong, it scrapes the wrong sources.

I always want to get the scissors to Lisa’s hair and give her a nice shoulder length bob or something.

Sat

I'm team kevin, sick of seeing his brother hanging about

David 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Urgh, Becky. Can she just go away?

Is Becky a policewoman ?

I wish Becky, Betsy, Lisa and Granny Driscoll would all leave.

I'm getting more convinced Debbie is Carl's real mum.

Anyone else think Debbie is really Carl’s
mother? The lingering look Debbie has been giving and now the sudden mention of his unfeeling mother who he never felt loved him? Just a hunch

Crossed post ! Yes I’m convinced !

I know soaps like to do this sort of thing with the real mother but I don’t think they should with Debbie and Carl

Please can they take Eva's dreadful daughter with them.

Yes to Debbie being Carl’s mum.

She is a dead policewoman

Not sure how the ambulance woman did not check her credentials

I hope not, it would really overload the plot. There has never been any hint of it, and I still don't see it in Debbie's reactions.

@80s Becky is an undead police officer. I fast forward through all her scenes as I don't care what she is up to!

Why was Adam talking to Eva (offscreen years ago) about her termination? Makes no sense.
