Can't believe we're on a new thread already. Filling up so fast these days!

Brief summary:

Todd has finally left the dreadful Theo, (after he badly beat up Todd,) but Theo is not keen on leaving him alone (although he has been told to by the police.)

Carla and Lisa (Swain) are planning on getting married very shortly.

Carl has been trying to extort money out of Summer for information, as he knows Theo killed Billy. (Summer knows this now too as Theo cornered her in the shop and told her as much, threatening to 'bury her too.') Summer is - very sensibly - not giving Carl a penny until Theo is arrested!

The ghastly Megan (Trainer) seems to have vanished, so Sam is relatively safe for now, but Sam has been having hallucinations and keeps seeing Will there - coming at him - when Will is nowhere near. Toyah, Leanne, and Eva have tricked Megan into meeting her (by sending a text from the burner phone Megan gave Will, and pretending to be Will...) Not sure what they're going to do when they meet her!

Ben Driscoll has just found out the man he knew as dad is not his bio father, and Jim McDonald is actually his father (so he is.)

The effervescent Debbie is declining a little bit more by the week, but is still in fighting spirit, and is seeing Carl for the parasite he really is. The gorgeous Ronnie is always by her side. Carl has just decided to cause a flood in Debbie's hotel by leaving the taps running in one of the rooms, after she told him he was very difficult to love, and refused to let him have half the hotel after he threatened to report Ronnie to the police for hitting him.

Shona's annoying sister Jodie is causing trouble all over the place! She's stolen Lisa's police badge, and a girl she uses to be a nanny for has turned up. Jodie is not happy about this!

Probably a bit more is happening, but I'm sure it will come up soon. Smile

Summer looked very shifty when kit was there

I do not think she did it but she will be the character who knows something but unfathomably decides not to speak up

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 09:58

I think Danielle has discovered that something unpleasant happened with Theo and the kids. And has done him in.

zanahoria · 05/05/2026 10:06

We will have weeks of people acting shifty, bungled investigations, video files going missing, wrongful arrests before they reveal that Mal did it

TipsyPeachSnake · 05/05/2026 10:09

I think Gary rescued Summer from Theo, maybe he saw when watch was thrown out of window and went to investigate. Both Gary and Summer are in on it, which is why she looked a bit shifty when Kit talking to them, she knows.

Has Kevin noticed that his garage has been smashed up yet?

AmusedMaker · 05/05/2026 10:37

Anyone else think Sam’s involved in something somewhere? Have we seen Megan since the night it all happened?

the80sweregreat · 05/05/2026 10:58

Might be Mal, but did he have any beef with Theo ?
I am sure that Bernie featured in the flash forwards, but no sign of her for a while now. I am usually wrong though.

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 11:18

Does Kevin have cctv?

rainbowruthie · 05/05/2026 11:33

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 11:18

Yes he does, but the horrible Carl may have disabled it?

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 11:44

Yes he would know that would be necessary. I wonder if any other businesses have exterior cameras? I know our local pubs and banks and pharmacy and bookies do. The supermarket nobody knows about might and anywhere with a lot of cash and expensive stock.
Oh and the factreh. Does kit have to look at all that himself? Craig would have been a great community police officer just now.

If Weatherfield is anything like Walford it will be a CCTV-free zone.

We do know that Theo installed a Ring doorbell at the flat though.

He did. It showed him disabling it before he started smashing everything up.

Gary was on CCTV but it was his own

Shellingbynight · 05/05/2026 13:21

@zanahoria - thanks - cameras are always pointless on soaps, either switched off or broken or stolen or doctored. Like the recordings of Theo's abuse which then disappeared, reappeared and disappeared again. And of course the footage of Tyrone's accident.

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 14:21

With the crime rate around there it should be swamped with cctv!

and nobody can copy a file and nor do they realise that deleted files can be easily recovered

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 16:49

Even the young people are poor with computer stuff . Nobody has any kind of it job.

Last week when the bad guys came to retrieve the hard drive they did at least ask Jody if she had made a copy, she said no and they believed her - very trusting these bad guys

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 19:28

They know that computer skills are non existent in that general area. Although Alya has a laptop it was hacked. Roy has a phone.

Housewife2010 · 05/05/2026 19:34

Max was good with computers but he's locked up.

TipsyPeachSnake · 05/05/2026 21:03

Christina making things 10 times worse for George carrying around his bloody jumper 😡

I believe Ronnie that he only found Carl but do think he knows who was responsible. Wasn’t Tyrone calling him when he was at the hospital but he told Debbie it was Ryan?

eggandonion · 05/05/2026 21:23

I love the giant Roy Hudd /Archie Shuttleworth portrait . Audrey has one of Alf?
Mel and Mal,Daniel and Danielle, Miles and Milliie. The writers need to spend time on baby names boards.

the80sweregreat · 05/05/2026 21:34

Christina was ridiculous with that jumper. Just put it in the wash or hide it. It was almost as if she wanted him to be arrested.

Housewife2010 · 05/05/2026 21:40

Did you notice during yesterday's episode that Fit Kit said that Todd had been sexually as well as physically abused.
