Hooray, it's nearly Spring (2026,) and it's getting a bit warmer! CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Following on from the last thread...

Carl is still awful.

Mal is dreadful.

Bernie is panicking.

Ma Driscoll is horrendous.

Kit is still fit.

Ronnie and Kevin's new double act is quite entertaining!

Debbie is still in prison.

Hope is still as cheeky as ever.

Brian has lost one of his favourite books!

It's all happening in t'street

I am sure there is more.......

Rich is Alyas old boss show worked with just before her maternity leave.

Theo's little tantrum in the van when he saw Todd & James would make a great gif. 🤣

Theo looks amazingly unkempt considering he sleeps in his van, isn’t he a bit stinky by now. Is he still stealing Todd’s money?

do they give Ma Driscoll hideous things to wear like those peplum tops

Alya doesn't drink alcohol, which limits her a bit as a soap character. I also thought she didn't agree with pre marital sex, but that's obviously gone by the board.

I’m not sure if the flat is just in Todd’s name or if it’s joint? What happened to the flat Billy shared with Paul & Summer?

It was obvious Theo was playing mind games with Todd, he was being far too rational and sensible.
I’ve said it before but I am warming to Ma Driscoll, she makes me laugh. She’s so bad she’s good.

The flat Billy had is unoccupied I think? Summer is just staying with Todd temporarily AFAIK, but she wouldn't be able to pay the rent on Billy's flat (not that this kind of thing ever worries Corrie). I assume Todd and Summer will end up together in Billy's flat once this farrago is over.

Theo still trying to control the agenda. He obviously wants Todd to beg him to go back, I'm glad Todd didn't give him anything on that.

Steve is 51. We don’t know how old Ben is but I would have said mid 40s. I am sure Jim was unfaithful to Liz more than once!

He won't do that, Theo is the only mate he has had since Quinny died

With her lovely hair, they will be turning her lesbian next so she can join in with the hair swishing sessions

His mother is 65, so I doubt he is older than Steve.

Although having a baby at 13 is commonplace on Corrie

Oh yes thanks for the reminder, Ma Driscoll had a 65th party didn't she, which is why I thought Ben was around mid 40s.

Corriepedia lists Ben as being born in 1979, so 46/47.
Just wached Thursday's episode...bit more interesting than usual.

Oh I better watch it now then 😀

I laughed (and had to rewatch several times) Theo having a tantrum in the van. He looked as though he was performing some kind of indoor break dancing!

I assume that hotshot (not a real) lawyer Alya is being head hunted again

Like a pp, Maggie is actually growing on me, I couldn't stand her at first. What I don't understand about Adam is why the hell the actor is still there, he is still young, very good looking and a decent actor, I have seen him in other things in the past, he never gets a decent storyline, i just dont get it.

They looks the opposite of unkempt! Id expect him to look a bit grubby sleeping in the van, but he doesn't

Mind you, neither did Carla when she'd been tied up for however long that was.

I think one of the oddest things ever was big Jim and the fake daughter . I wish he was having a proper funeral.

So no one has taken pity on Theo and offered him lodgings, I suppose it suits him - 'poor me, Todd is violent and I am sleeping in my van'.

I have never liked Adam. I think the actor is very one note, I preferred original Adam but that actor has gone on to better things.

She would have a lovely pony tail for Carla to fondle.

Adam and Alya are living together, working together in a tiny office with nobody else, he is also training her for exams, they sit in the same pub and cafes together.

No wonder they are as dull as dishwater

Yes still fully made up with no panda eyes and no mention of toilet opportunities

So it looks like it may be true what people suspected. (About Ma Driscoll and Big Jim.)

It’s a bit strange that Gary and Maria spent all day “looking after poor Theo” then let him toddle off back to his van for the night!

why does he sleep in the front?

he could at least lie down in the back
