So the 'Who Killed Theo' saga carries on. I think we should find out who it is soon... Fit Kit and Swain are on the case still. (For what its worth!) 😆

Poor Sam has been sectioned, and is quite unwell, and has been diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Gary and Sarah are in cahoots about something, (related to Theo's death, I think.) Oh, and Maria thinks they're having an affair.

Some random lads are chasing and threatening Brodeh. Who knows why!

Ma Driscoll has been quiet for a while.

Will is still sneakily staying in touch with Megan Trainer!

Alya's cousin Idris (who has never been mentioned before AFAIK) has appeared on the street, and has been seeing Leanne.

Carl, Kevin, and dishy Ronnie have buried the hatchet (for now! Hopefully it lasts!)

And what is Jodie going to do with Carl's gun?!

Sorry if I've missed anything!

The writers are putting off Harper coming home because they haven't a clue what to do with her. She will be too young for years yet to spend all her time in her room listening to her tapes, so its a conundrum. I suppose she will be placed in supernanny Jodie's care, and she will promptly lose her on the red rec or something, then pretend she has been kidnapped or some such nonsense. 🙄

When did we last see the quads?

Have we seen them this year?! January maybe.........? For 10, maybe 15 seconds....

Daft to bring FOUR babies along at once like this, and then rarely see them. Stupid storyline really

I bet by now the scriptwriter has long gone ..and all the other scriptwriters are saying ..
" Flipping heck !
What was Barry thinking about bringing in quads !
What the hell are we supposed to do with them now ??"
" Shall we just forget about them ?"
"Yeah...let's hope no one notices !"

eggandonion · 05/07/2026 21:20

Surely they just need one quad at a time and a set of mirrors rigged up. Or ai generated quads. Or chicken pox one after the other.
Where is Jawseph? He went skiing but did he come back?

Ah ha yes of course! Alya the lawyer/restaurant owner! Must be great to have multiple businesses like some people in Corrie! 😆

Yet does all her legal work at a dining table in speed dhal 🤣

But we will always have the hilarious cable car scene

Not sure the quads are even the problem.

Ches and Gemma are not interesting

He is dull and she is a one trick pony comedy character running out the same routine based around her being garish and vulgar.

They were always mismatched deliberately so to be a hilarious odd couple but just not funny any more.

eggandonion · 06/07/2026 12:01

They should have let him have his chesburger business. Or get a new Schmeichel who was an excellent character. Or just move to a big fancy council house elsewhere.

LOL I forgot about the cable car scene. (I went on them a few years back. In Llandudno!) I would never have gone on them whilst 7 months pregnant though!

Just watched tonight's episode. It's a good one IMO. Bit of drama, and some laughs, reminiscent of old Corrie - a bit!

Then she'll turn up at 14, with a new head, and promptly go off the rails / get pregnant, a well worn (predictable) path for soap teens 🙄

Shellingbynight · 06/07/2026 20:02

Thank you @JellyBeanSpring25
It has confirmed how much I dislike the hour long episodes, I'll be glad when it goes back permanently to half an hour.

Wishimaywishimight · 06/07/2026 20:37

Fizz's face at the suggestion of Hope babysitting 😆

Dontcallmescarface · 06/07/2026 20:51

"I'm a consultant pediatrician" was said with the same conviction as my ( then 4yo), DD's 1 line in the nativity play "I'm a sheep, baaaa".

Wishimaywishimight · 06/07/2026 20:52

Poor Abby can't move her face to express any emotion. She looks like she's made from plaster.

thenightsky · 06/07/2026 21:00

I'm confused about Daniel. He is now working at Wethy comp from the conversation with Hope and Will in the cafe, but I thought he was working at the PRU with the bad lads.

Re the screen writers, I've noticed there doesn't seem to be any consistency so no wonder the story lines are a mess. It is such a shame as Corrie used to be so good.

No he joined Weathy Comp about six months ago

Street cars really need to update the airport run poster and prices

the poster is showing £20 to manchester airport but it’s £32 for an Uber and £46 for an XL that’s needed for an airport run from mine

the poster is also saying £55 to Liverpool so for uber that’d pretty much spot on, saying £57, but an XL is £82

It was hilarious true Corrie at its best! Love it when Cassie and Tracyluv have scenes together! So what do we think Christina is up to ? That’ll be next big storyline

OnTheBoardwalk · 06/07/2026 23:17

Yeah it took me a long time to warm to Cassie but love how she stands up to Tracy. Hope that wasn’t a storm out forever. Maybe she could go and crash at Evelyn’s?

It was soooo funny wasn't it? 'I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy...! 😂

And TracyLuv ripping the piss out of Cassie in the pub! Really funny. 😆

Poor Cassie though, being turned down by Steve, who reacted as if she had just asked him if he fancied a day trip to Rhyl. 'Meh, nah, it's OK, we're OK here aren't we? Maybe pop to to the park for a picnic. CBA with the drive.' She was pouring her heart out, and he stamped all over it. 😢 I think he likes Cassie, but only as a girlfriend/partner, clearly not marriage material in his eyes.

I agree that Streetcars need to update their prices.

Poor Brodeh getting wrapped up in Idris's hard man games! Seems he doesn't want to though. I was warming to him too. Hope they don't turn him rotten.

Poor little Alfie. I hope he'll be OK.

They are trying to do a repeat of Karen-Tracy with Cassie-Tracy. But for me it doesn't work as I can't stand Cassie, they have not developed her character. She just does stuff (like drugging Ken) then everyone except Tracy has amnesia about it.

But I did like the scenes with Tracy afterwards in the pub. She is good value. I am pretty sure the long term plan is to get Steve and Tracy back together, Cassie has always seemed 'temporary'. Although nowadays everything seems temporary on Corrie!

Shame Abi's face doesn't allow her to emote nowadays. She'll do a lot of shouting though.
