We're well into Spring 2026 now. CORONATION STREET THREAD. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

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.

I was thinking the same - my money is on her or Danielle as Theo's killer...if it was Summer, it was in self defence as he had her cornered in the flat

I am still pondering why Shona and Jodie dress in matching outfits - both have the black trousers with hoodie and leather jacket combo - really odd way for adult sisters to behave and nobody ever comments on it

Jodie is skinwalking Shona.

Oooh I had to Google skinwalking. Excellent word for me to slip into conversation!

I've only recently learned it @eggandonion ,that was me practising for the real world 😅

My dh has intellectual visitors next week and I want to use a big word. I don't think any of them watch corrie. One definitely watched reality TV...

Oo, we could have fun with the Big Word Visitor Challenge @eggandonion , I shall give it my utmost consideration 🤓

Reality TV you say 🤔

I actually quite like the actress but they have gone down the tiresome route of making her a trouble maker from the get go and not just any old trouble maker but one who starts trouble for no bloody reason whatsoever with each and every person she meets.

Im quite interested to see what the do with Jodie. She reminds me of Hope's sister in weirdness.
I like multiplicity as a drop in word. Our local estate agent often uses it for business premises. Suitable for a multiplicity of uses.

Jodie is just jealous , I doubt it’s any more than that really ( when it comes to Shona anyway )
She is also unhinged, has a real problem with her past. She needs help really.

I dont get the story line re Jodie. For me its a lot of hot air!

Jodie has the box of things. What's that all about.

I loved George being snippy with Lisa in his interview. I always forget how annoying she is when she's interviewing people.

She does sound like a very stupid woman trying to sound clever, I laughed when she said that she dealt in facts. She locked up poor Roy with no evidence and believed every bit of nonsense Becky told her

Good call

Jade was bonkers, you would have to be bonkers to abduct Hope

Multiplicity is good. I've only come up with perpendicular all afternoon as I've gone about my business. Perhaps a small glass of sherry will assist with inspiration in lieu of fish, which I have none of.

Jodie and Jade. Jack Joseph Jacob Joshua years ago. At least ena and Fred and Liz were different letters.
Ruby seems to have vanished.

I quite like her chaotic nature myself. Her feud with Adam was quite amusing.

Yeah, she is kind of pointless.

Oh yeah, Ruby! She has only been in it for 2-3 episodes all year I think.

A box with very sharp corners that she cut her hand on.

I had actually forgotten about Jade - John Stape's other daughter.

She came and went... quickly. (2019-2020, for about 5 months...)

Another pointless character! 🙄

I keep changing my mind about who killed Theo. Everyone seems to have something to hide.

Surprised Maria did what she did for Gary but then she knows he’s killed before and kept quiet. I hope it doesn’t backfire on her.

I thought Hope was vey good tonight. Enjoyed her exchanges with Daniel. She is such a confident actor

Was that Garreh in the picture?

Also TF have they done to Sallys hair?

Yes looked like Gary in the picture.

i thought Sally looked lovely tonight, quite radiant
