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!

I think Christina overdoes the puffing, breathy delivery. Or she needs to see Dr Gadass.

The mystery man could possibly be Tyrone's dad, but how would Cassie not know him until she saw his name?

She did. She saw his signature on something (his bill?) and you could see the realisation hitting her.

I don't know what the constantly weeing is about. Although one of those was to allow Glenda to look in her handbag, so it may not be significant.

Christina talked about buying things to cheer herself up. I wonder how much of that she does. Quite a lot if she's taking out fraudulent cards!

I find Christina is fine in small doses doing comic stuff but she was awful in the now completely forgotten George and the (not) dodgy Will plot.

Maybe she’s addicted to ketamine and using loans in Mary and George’s names to fund her habit.

She was a junkie when she first knew him, she's absolutely rat-arsed this time and many years have passed but she does say 'don't I know you from somewhere' (or words to that effect)... and when she reads his name on the bill, thats when she realises!

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 09/07/2026 22:51

the statement was in Mary’s name. So presumably implying she’s taken out a credit card in Mary’s name? Eastenders just had that storyline though!

Bloomin eck youve got good eyesight didn’t notice that ! Well done !

Yes but she did say I seem to recognise you and he denied all knowledge. Maybe he suddenly realised hence why he made a quick exit!

Untrue rumours on other sites that tonight's Corrie scriptwriter Jonathan Harvey is Count Binface of Clacton fame. He is not. He was born 1968.

Binface is actually Jon Harvey ( born 1980)...well known comic and screenwriter...but not Corrie.

Thank you - I've just realised one of the reasons I find her so irritating is the puffing breathy delivery!

It's the depth in her personality 😆

TipsyPeachSnake · 10/07/2026 17:05

Surely it’s easier to remember a face rather than a name. Cassie seemingly only realised who he was from his name.

Sorry total misunderstanding. Ignore.

Guys for gawd sake don’t read the Mirror it’s disclosed who Ross Wilkes is 😩

JewelleryCat · 10/07/2026 20:04

How stupid of The Mirror to do that

To be honest, it’s been publicised for over a week who he is. Ditto story lines coming up next week. I wish they wouldn’t but I finding spoilers really hard to miss these days.

JewelleryCat · 10/07/2026 21:11

Frankie alert

suburburban · 10/07/2026 21:41

I thought Jodie lived in her own house?

SabreIsMyFave · 10/07/2026 22:02

It's ludicrous that Gary is keeping this deep, dark secret from Maria - his WIFE. She knows something is going on, (he has admitted it virtually,) but he refuses to say. If I was Maria, I would have lost patience by now! I'd say 'if you don't tell me what's going on, I will NOT be your alibi!'

Re: Hope and Ruby taking DNA from Tyrone (how?) and finding his birth father, that's wild! Why on earth did they do this?! I would have been bloody furious with anyone who did this to me. I have never heard Tyrone expressing any interest in finding his birth father, so why did they do it? People in my past who I have had nothing to do with for 2-3 decades are more, are there (in the past) for a reason, I don't want them in my life. I would be extremely angry if someone did this to me.

Swain asking the same questions to the 'suspects' in Theo's murder is getting tedious. The cops are getting nowhere really are they?

So Christina has a spending addiction? Glenda's not very sympathetic! I am not 100% convinced by Christina's story of how she can't help it though. Something just isn't sitting right IMO.

Also, Mary is so weird! 😆 And I agree that Christina's huffing and puffing is quite annoying!

@suburburban I have no idea where Jodie is meant to actually live! Or where all her stuff is! She moves from A to B to C, then back to A again LOL, but never seems to have any luggage!

I know I have said this before, but I am so sick to death of Lauren's mardy face. Looks like a gloomy, wet Monday morning in January, all the time! HOW is she working in a customer facing role?! Confused @JewelleryCat I didn't notice Frankie (Lauren's son?) It must have been when I popped to the kitchen for my bottle of water out of the fridge!

MrsPapillon · 10/07/2026 22:31

You have to send a vial of saliva to a DNA testing site. It’s a LOT of spit! Did they scoop it up while Tyrone was asleep and drooling?

So Christina’s addiction is spending, not spending a penny, which is ironic given the amount of times she’s been running to the toilet lately.

zanahoria · 11/07/2026 00:06

Another classic Swain interview, held in the salon in front of customers and who is here new sidekick?

zanahoria · 11/07/2026 00:25

I was just beginning to like Christina but she is just another criminal and this sounds a really tedious plot

Shellingbynight · 11/07/2026 08:05

@SabreIsMyFave I think that's probably just due to Christina's dodgy acting!

Agree re Lauren and her mardy face.

And I agree about the girls finding Tyrone's dad. Would any teen really do that? But... plot reasons.

LesserSpottedCharacter · 11/07/2026 08:17

Surely if Christina had a spending addiction there would have been evidence of her buying before now, rather than the few bags they shipped in at the last minute.

It's yet another 'throw every tagline we know about spending addiction into Christina's lines, but don't forget to leave spaces in the script for the puffing'.

The one good thing is that it hasn't dragged out for too long. With any luck it'll all be forgotten by the end of next week, as is the Corrie course.

FlibbertyGibbitt · 11/07/2026 08:20

When Christina first came into it, hadn’t her partner died and George sorted the funeral, there were some dodgy money dealings I’m sure ? And then wasn’t there with Daisy as well? Everyone hated her at the beginning as she was dodgy then ?

the80sweregreat · 11/07/2026 08:25

It was handy that there happened to be a spending addiction group going on for her to go to.
She said she paid off the credit cards, but how?
The bags looked high end goods, what does Christina do for a living ?
Ive missed a lot of episodes this past week, but saw last nights one. Is Cassie Tyrone’s mum and did she sleep with the man they say is his dad ? Ross.

TipsyPeachSnake · 11/07/2026 08:39

Yes Christina has always been dodgy, she’s a taker. They’ve put it down to a spending addiction so she can be redeemed! The appearance of a few bags at the last minute is to show Christina has only recently fallen back into bad habits after being ‘clean’ for a while.

Hope is funny and I don’t think it was a stretch her trying to find Tyrone’s dad, she is Hope after all!

I’ve said it before but I do love scenes with Sally and Brodie, she is no nonsense with him and he seems to respect her. I do hope he’s not going to get deeper in trouble working for Idris, although Idris did appear a little concerned when he found out his dad was a copper!

The sheer cheek of Ross threatening to expose Cassie, surely he would come off much worse if he did? He would be admitting to paying for it and wasn’t Cassie 15 when she fell pregnant? So Ross is therefore a rapist!
