The end is nigh for shiny faced Megan Trainer! (Hooray!) CORONATION STREET THREAD. Now in mid May 2026. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

So finally the Megan/Will storyline is coming to an end! Sam is still not well though, poor lad...

Connor-Swain and Fit Kit are busy trying to find Theo's killer, and everyone Todd is close to is taking it in turns to babysit him!

Tim is trying to come to terms with the realisation that the thing he had with an older woman (Trisha) 40 years ago, (when he was 14) was actually abuse...

Shona's sister Jodie has managed to push herself into Daniel's house (and his life,) and seems to flit from place to place, with no actual luggage or money!

I know there's probably more...

I was thinking that Kitt had disappeared so they could bring in a new 'bad boy' for Sarah to fall into bed with after drinking far too much. He'll turn out to be a gangster too I'm guessing.

Yes, Todd and Theo were legally married. Todd would inherit if there's no will.

I feel like all the storylines are getting diluted because there are so many running at once. It's hard to keep track of which have been resolved. I am still confused at what happened to George's court case. They spend weeks building up a plot and end it with a whimper. Jodie is the worst. She is a kleptomaniac, liar, and now troll. Can anyone keep up with her bad ways?

@SabreIsMyFave- Leanne bought Yasmeen’s half-share of Speed Dahl when Yasmeen (suddenly) left with her payout from Nick for her part share in The Bistro (when he swapped her out for Toyah). When Zeedan first started the business, he was adamant that it should be alcohol free.

and it means Brody will be a bad boy again

and he is the least convincing bad boy since Wham recorded 'Bad Boys'

They had definitely been leafing through the big book of soap cliches when Idris showed up in his fancy car and kicked that oik out and then took on the two drunken borish 'suits'.

Yet Alya with her super legal brain can't see that her cousin is as bent as a nine bob note.

I reckon Leanne will get him before Sarah does

Leanne, or Sarah, or Tracy, or Jodie 🤷‍♀️

Ah yes, Sally said something along the lines of Brody’s turned out so well, so that’s a definite plot signpost to him turning bad. I did like the Jaws reference though!

I am still confused as to why Idris drove up with that oik in his car just so he could shove him onto the pavement before popping in to see his cousin

Just caught up with Tues episode.
Who is Idris really? And why has he arrived on the cobbles now?
As others said, not another gangster type/ love interest!
Cannot believe Will and Megan looks like starting up again.
Scriptwriters seem stuck on rinse and repeat. New ideas please!

I am guessing a loan shark and he’s going to try and bully all of the local businesses into protection. He will use Brodeh to do the dirty work. Shame as I was just coming round to him.

I think the writers have completely lost site as to what corrie is. They are introducing another new character, Idris from nowhere. Likely to be yet another dodgy character so are we looking at yet more manipulations, lies, police, violence and jail time. It’s utterly ridiculous now. Where is the corrie that had humour, decent storylines that we were engaged in.

We have Jodie that no one cares about.

Theo's murder that is another who done it but actually should have been resolved with him being prosecuted and sent to prison.

Will and Megan Trainer, again no one cares.

Oh lord we now have gangster Idris (hardly Elba) reminds me of that stupid short arse Sarah Lou was shagging! Wonder if boring Alyia will have an affair give her and Adam some excitement as they are terminal😩or Brody will end up on the wrong side of the tracks especially after Sally’s comment about him turning into a nice boy ! How bloody ridiculous that gormless Will would suddenly use phone after his Daaaaaa has just walked up the stairs !!

I’ve missed a couple of episodes with being away- can someone summarise for me why Will now hates Megan?

He was in Tims cab to run away with her and got stuck in traffic
Tim recounted his experience of being groomed and Will suddenely realised she was grooming him
It was a bit quick tbh
But then hes ringing her again lsst night unless Im getting confused

Aliya sooooo gonna go for Idris
Why would anyone live there, so many crims ?

Why has Kit suddenly disappeared? I wonder if the actor had to leave all of a sudden? He wouldn't be taken off somewhere else when he was in the middle of a murder case!

I wondered this. “Secondment in Wales” seems a weirdly vague explanation.

Thank you!
That does seem like a quick/easy change of heart for him hahaha!

Are Idris and the pavemented oik the same ones who were chasing Jodie for the USB stick?

Hmmm Are they going to go with the Dexter angle and its Kit who killed Theo?
Hes got form for abusing his powers

So hes disappeared to throw us off the scent and slowly but surely Lisa does that blank staring thing and realises its Kit

I kinda got that

It just seemed weird to fit it in before his social visits

Idris is her cousin

I doubt they want to get into that issue

Hard to tell

All crap gangsters look the same to me

It seems the writers keep Brody on a shelf and they aren't sure how to use him. Then up he pops as a good guy no hang on that was last week so this week his bad side needs an airing. Bla bla bloody bla.

We like him then we don't then we might like him a bit "big yawn' 🙄

It's like he's an apprentice villain. He should get with Jodie. Then JodieBrody can skip off into the sunset together. Bye bye we won't miss either of you.

I hope they don't drag Dylan into it, he is a quite likeable lad when he is away from Brody

I hate that protection mafia cr*p storyline or it’s another blackmail plot

remember it in Brookside

Also Todd needs his job so would he not need to keep in with George despite Summer and also he lives there, how can he afford to sit around drinking

is the flat still his or does he have to still pay rent, none of these more practical matters are ever discussed
