Is it nearly February (2026) already?! CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

Well, we soared through the last thread again, so here's a shiny new one!

Corrie is pretty much based around the tragic death of Billy at the moment. Bernie is starting to lose the plot a bit, and ended up in a hotel room with a strange man who is the husband of someone Roy has been chatting to. (It's all a bit confusing!!!) Then she ended up unconcious in the ladies toilets!

Todd and Theo are still together - annoyingly - and Carl (Debbie's brother) has just heard Theo blabbing to Billy in his coffin how he's not a murderer, and he should have saved him, and so on. A guilty conscience, or self pity? (I'm guessing the latter.) Carl was listening (conveniently!) and smirked when he heard Theo 'confessing,' but I'm not sure what he's going to do with the information. Especially as shortly after, Theo saw Carl doing some dodgy dealing with some blokes, and he photographed him. So, they now have 'something' on each other!

Not much happening with the Driscolls at the moment, and Ma Driscoll and Eva have called a truce. But for how long???

Shona and David's new little baby (Harper) is still a bit fragile.

Shiny faced Megan Trainer the Siren who has men (and boys) eating out of her hand, is showing an unpleasant, dark side, after practically threatening Sam (Nick's son) if he blabs anything about her and Will.

And Carla and Lisa have inexplicably made up, as if nothing has happened. On the plus side however, at least we have got rid of the dreadful Undead Becky storyline.

Probably some more bits and bobs to discuss, but I'm sure we'll get to them soon. Smile

Mal is Alice .
He is a weirdo who pretends to be the lady .
Turns up pretending to be the husband .
Needs a job.
Any job ..but hopefully electric work.

Accidentally ends up with a lady that wasn't in the plan.

But now he is smitten with the lady .

Has Roy had a quote ? Gone round with Mal looking at what needs doing ( and nodding wisely , even if you haven’t much a clue) Asked about floorboards and fuses and switches? No, he is trusting him because he sounds as if he knows what he is doing. 🙄

Frankly, if I had anyone doing work at my house simply declare that he was going to be there a lot longer I would just kick the cheeky bastard out

zanahoria · 11/02/2026 16:44

Roy is just a mug.

Swain locked him up with no evidence now he is mates with her

As a pp said, Malice. Clever.

@bizzeyI think Harper’s op is next month, she’s not big enough yet.

bizzey · 11/02/2026 17:53

@Shellingbynight ..thank you .
Love how it is just us viewers that are concerned about little Harper and not her mother !!

I suppose he hasn't ordered a new card because Theo would see money leaving the account and he has reverted to thinking he has to obey Theo. Y'know, the Theo who went off for a week and left him £10.

So Todd thinks if he pays for things with cash, Theo won't know. But of course he will, because George will blab, and anyway Theo would want to know where Todd's wages had gone.

If he had any sense he would ask George to pay his wages into a new account

funny how Theo doesn’t have to limit his spending

also will Summer be able to afford her own flat without Billy

Shellingbynight · 11/02/2026 18:01

Yeh Shona is completely unbothered!

Shellingbynight · 11/02/2026 18:03

@suburburban
Todd has the perfect chance to get out, he could move in with Summer. But no, he and the viewers have to keep suffering.

He could also move back into Eileen’s. He’s not short of places to stay.

Has anyone been on MN long enough to remember that thread about the MNer who had a prem baby in HDU and asked if it would be unreasonable for her to go on a short notice holiday to Maui, given the baby would be in for a month?

He has Irene’s house, doesn’t he? He could go back there?

PropertyD · 11/02/2026 20:47

Is it just me but is the Todd storyline getting tiresome.

I don't remember this. I have been here since Penis Beaker.

That's wild though! And yeah, Shona is not showing much interest in baby Harper!

Hmmm, yeah, I think it's a good storlyline, but also, I want to slap Todd with a wet fish! SO, it is a frustrating storyline!!! He is letting Theo walk all over him. Little fat piggy was it Theo called him for eating a takeaway? Vile bastard Theo is. 😠

Yes he could do. And as has been said on here, Todd and Theo have no real commitments. No financial ties together, no kids together, not married, and renting - so no mortgage together. Todd could leave. It's frustrating that he doesn't!

SabreIsMyFave · 11/02/2026 20:56

After Todd and Theo had DTD just then, what had happened to Todd's neck?

OP posts:
1reason · 11/02/2026 20:56

So many questions!
How did Jodie manage to acquire the jewellery/ trinket box, given that she fled in Corriedale? Whose photos were in the locket?
What will Mal do next? Surprised he is so besotted with Bernie so quickly.
How is Todd/ Theo going to pan out? Just keeps dragging on.

SabreIsMyFave · 11/02/2026 20:57

Sorry, just NO! They have jumped the shark here. Sam would NEVER buy performance enhancing drugs. Methylphenidate is used to make you more alert and 'awake,' and makes your brain sharper, and it increases dopamine. Just no! Sam would never take drugs. Why are they doing this?!!!

I agree. Nor would he be shrinking away from telling someone about the paedophile teacher!

And is it me, or does Todd seem to have shrunk? Theo towers over him (I know it’s filmed a bit that way to make him look more scary).

SabreIsMyFave · 11/02/2026 21:36

@Gingercar Yes I agree about Sam, and the paedophile teacher too, and don't believe Sam would have been scared by her OR not reported her.

And yes, I think they are filming Todd and Theo to make Todd look small, and to make Theo look domineering and menacing. It's working! He is really creepy and scary! Poor Todd!

OP posts:
Shellingbynight · 11/02/2026 21:39

Eileen owns no11, presumably George is now renting it from her?

But yes Todd could go back there, he has multiple options, which is why the Theo storyline is getting tiresome. And repetitive.

He’s given him a massive love bite 🤢 and hurt his neck in process the animal.
Where pray was Frankeh tonight ? Another mother getting pissed ! Seems to be a pattern here!
Jodie please fuck off sooooooo bored with this never ending boring storyline and believe me there’s been quite a few on Corrie recently. Sam on drugs …… give me strength 🙈
