The last thread filled up quickly! (2 weeks!) Shows Coronation Street is gaining popularity again. Smile (It has improved quite a bit lately!)

R.I.P. Billy Mayhew. Flowers

Todd continues to be manipulated by Theo, Summer has done some stellar sobbing (that's brought me to tears!) and it seems there's no-one to help poor Todd.

Not much has been seen of The Driscolls for a while. after the tragedy around Corriedale, and Billy the vicar dying. (I'm sure they're about somewhere!)

Lisa (Swain) is being manipulated by Undead Becky now, (from prison) and she's threatening to 'take her down with her' if she doesn't have her back! Not sure Carla wants Lisa back anyway after Lisa slept with Becky!

Poor Debbie is all over the place, trying desperately to defend evil Carl who has stolen from her, cheated on Abi, and caused all kinds of destruction with a car, (twice - and both times he's got away with it!)

Shona and David's new baby is in hospital for a while after being born prematurely, and Shona's sister has appeared suddenly! I guess we'll learn more about her, and why she and Shona have not seen each other for some years.

Sorry if I've left anything out. I'm sure we'll all catch up soon. Smile

Why did they show Adam, the corner shop solicitor, wearing a barrister’s wig in court 😂

That’s not been on screen yet.

It's difficult with Debbie, because yes she 'knows' things but has she retained them. She had concussion and she has dementia. And Carl came up with a reason the books didn't Tally. But I agree she's covering up for him.

It's obviously Megan's test, and it is likely to be Will's baby, because Daniel told someone (Adam?) they were always careful. Imagine when Ma Driscoll finds out that she has been shagging her precious grandson, and has aborted his baby (I assume she isn't keeping it).

the80sweregreat · 15/01/2026 09:57

Is Audrey still in it ? I can’t believe how alike Shona and her half sibling look! What was the sim she put in the bin ?
Wills face when he heard those two men them talking about Megan! I thought he knew she was sleeping with Daniel etc, but clearly not.

Last time we saw Adam he was playing darts in the pub and talking contraception with Daniel. Not seen him ‘at work’ for a long time!

Yes she is. We see her very rarely these days, a lot like Rita.

I think the SIM was likely from the phone she was getting all of the missed calls on, so whoever was calling can’t contact her.

I think that is showing the naivety of Will’s age. He believed Megan when she said it was just a cover and that she slept on the sofa.

the80sweregreat · 15/01/2026 10:22

Megan is a horrible person and a groomer. I suppose people trust her because she is young and pretty , nobody wouid believe she is capable of all this.
Will thinks it’s the real deal of course ..
Once his grand ma discovers all this I fear that Megan may meet a nasty end , but only going by that flash back they had with her and the husband etc. only guessing.

No, apparently it’s a spoiler scene. You haven’t missed anything

AmusedMaker · 15/01/2026 08:34

The whole ‘Megan & Will’ storyline is ridiculous.
As if no one would have noticed something going on between them. So many little secret whispers on the way to the toilets.
Laughed at ‘Megan Trainer’ though 😃

Meghan has driven him across the country, stayed over night with him at fictitious athletics meetings, moved from Hull to train him, got a job at his school then showed up for Xmas.

Nobody in the family even suspects he may have a crush on his very attractive coach not even his insanely suspicious grandma who sticks her nose into everyone else's business

Shellingbynight · 15/01/2026 11:57

I agree Megan is going to meet a sticky end, possibly at the bottom of the stairs like Ma Driscoll's previous victim. It will either be Ma Driscoll or Will, they've shown he's violent already with the Daniel incident. And Ma Driscoll has already shown her fury at Eva getting rid of 'her grandchild' so god knows what she'd do to Megan.

Audrey used to be around a fair bit last year, but we haven't seen her much lately. It is daft she is not around now for this storyline, lots of scenes in the house yet no Audrey.

Housewife2010 · 14/01/2026 10:32

Maria is pregnant in Classic Corrie with Liam too.

I don’t think it’s Liam she is pregnant with at this point, from memory.

Talking of Ma Driscoll we haven’t seen her in ages hopefully she’ll be found lying at the bottom of the cellar stairs

cheeseonsofa · 15/01/2026 06:30

It was so obvious 🙄 when he earnestly said he had already been in a pregnancy situation where he he thought he was the Daddy but not
Here we go again!

I think its a baby triangle this time , 3 potential daddy's Will, Daniel or mystery man- gonna throw in Ben for the ick factor
She's doing father and son 🤢
All speculation BTW

I’m throwing in Ken they seem quite close there’s life in the old dog yet !

bizzey · 15/01/2026 14:50

Lauren seems to have spotted something
"Suspicious " about the situation between
Will and Megan .
Why has she not mentioned it to someone ?

Daniel knows Will has a crush on Megan ..but is just playing it down as a silly school boy thing.

I thought most elite athletes who had potential were always thinking of their sport , training regime, diet ..and so on ...

Will just seems to spend his whole time being moody !

Shouldn't he be also doing some schedule races or something.
Competition/track stuff.

No one ever goes to support him if he does .

SabreIsMyFave · 15/01/2026 15:40

the80sweregreat · 14/01/2026 22:30

There is nothing nice about Will at all. Moody, aggressive , sullen , a teenager .. I mean, his one to avoid.

He's awful isn't he? Nothing appealing at all. I mean, he is kinda good looking when he hasn't got a face like he's just bitten into an onion covered in lemon juice. And yes, he acts like such a teenager! (Can't imagine why!) 😆

To be fair, he’s been groomed by his trainer, then she’s openly shagging his teacher and expecting him to do nothing. It’s natural he’s fucked up!

Well, you do make a good point to be honest. I do wonder why a 28-30 year old woman would want to be with any 15-16 year old schoolboy though. What have they got in common? Apart from the obvious. Although I can't envisage a young person that age being super good in bed! And as you say, he is being groomed, and she should know better. It's disgusting what she's doing ....

Someone has already watched tonight's episode on ITVX! 😆

I watched it a few minutes ago. It's quite a good one folks.

Will chat about it after 9pm tonight.

I wonder what Shona's sister put in the bin too ... It was an SD card wasn't it? Or a simcard as you say... Is the same thing? I'm not very techy! 😆

the80sweregreat · 15/01/2026 15:51

No. Seems SD cards and SIM cards are different
Not sure what she placed in the bin though.

Shellingbynight · 15/01/2026 16:02

It looked like a SIM card to me. She wanted to avoid the calls from whoever was constantly ringing her, and she said she'd lost her phone. Presumably she will get a new SIM card and new phone number.

Digital Spy said Jodie put a SIM card in the bin. I find they’re very good for a recap, especially when it’s dark and you can’t see anything

Its about power and control.
That's why I think she might be having it off with Ben as well.
Particularly ties in well with Eva/ termination story.

Just random musings no spoilers

Thanks @cheeseonsofa Smile
