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!

His hair is of more interest to us than many of the characters and storylines 😆. It should have a mention on the credits - "Mr Burfield's hair styled by Black & Decker/Tetley".

Poor old Ian, subjected to Wig Watch 😂

the80sweregreat · 12/07/2026 10:41

I was watching an old Google box on Friday and they showed a clip of a trucker who was combing his wig, it looked quite good until he pulled it off his head.
I didn’t recognize Ross from EE at all. I can’t believe it’s another blackmailing man , had that with Mal and Bernie.

the80sweregreat · 12/07/2026 10:43

Glenda and Christina have a similar style of dressing don’t they. I can’t work out who is who with many of the characters even though I’ve been watching again since November. Have to keep looking at the fan sites to catch up with back stories. Plus missed loads this past week.

I don’t agree. Glenda’s style is more modern and she dresses really well for her shape (not that Christina doesn’t, but you know what I mean).

Shellingbynight · 12/07/2026 14:40

I think Glenda usually has more fitted clothes, Christina's are a bit more wafty. Glenda is often in a wrap top. They do have similar hairstyles.

Christina is a cleaner, but you only ever see her holding a duster at the undertakers, she seems very under-occupied.

eggandonion · 12/07/2026 19:43

Christina is way too posh to be a cleaner. She should own a cleaning agency which would be handy to employ anyone who needs to walk into a job.

the80sweregreat · 12/07/2026 19:52

Is it Lauren who works in the pub? She has an unusual style of dress.

eggandonion · 12/07/2026 21:21

I have just watched the last 2 episodes on catch up in the wrong order. I can confirm it makes little difference.

thenightsky · 12/07/2026 22:22

Sullen Lauren is a dreadful barmaid. I thought you'd never employ her as a barmaid, but then I went to my recently reopened local village pub and met a lass behind the bar that would beat Lauren for sullen, miserableness hands down.

Mollypolly2610 · 12/07/2026 22:36

I would like to know who looks after her child (can't even remember his name)

Shellingbynight · 13/07/2026 08:28

Lauren is a dreadful barmaid, if a punter asks for a drink she throws a mardy strop. I agree I have met bar staff like that! I don't think Ma would put up with it though.

Edit - kid's name is Frankeh.

SabreIsMyFave · 13/07/2026 09:32

I'm glad it's not just me who thinks Lauren is an awful barmaid! 😆 I've mentioned it a few times and did think it was just me! 😬

She should not be in any customer facing role. She has such a miserable face, like nearly all the time, and is rude and sullen. I also wonder who's looking after her little boy (Frankeh!)

Just watched tonight's (half hour episode, well 23 minutes actually,) as I'm going out tonight and won't be able to see it then, and it's quite a decent one.

There's a tiny scene cut in at the start where they talk about the World Cup... They mention England playing Argentina. No-one knew that was happening til Saturday night, so it's definitely only been filmed over the past day...

I saw that Gogglebox last night. When he was combing his hair I started to wonder if this was the one you were talking about, then he pulled it off and I still got a bit of a fright 😆. It did look quite good, I wouldn't have known, which is quite unusual for a wig.

Also the clothes she was wearing the other day (I know she was lying), would you go cleaning in those?

the80sweregreat · 13/07/2026 11:32

lesser spotted. The wig was good. He didn’t look that bad without it though.
I also noticed how much Vernon Kay was squirming when they showed the ‘obsession ‘ drama clip with the cheating husband. He went very quiet!
It was a very old episode though.
Gary and Sarah are looking so shifty arn’t they.
Ross is evil , I hope he doesn’t hang around too long.

zanahoria · 13/07/2026 11:38

I have always found drugs and gambling plots a bit depressing and tedious but this shopping addiction malarky is a new low.

Very hard to fathom up interest let alone sympathy.

the80sweregreat · 13/07/2026 11:42

It’s always the same isn’t it. They say it’s an addiction and an addiction group therapy session is on that day !
The chances of that happening is rare irl.

LesserSpottedCharacter · 13/07/2026 11:58

I didn't see the whole thing @the80sweregreat so missed Vernon going quiet. Trust me to miss the best bit 😅. I spend more time thinking about Julian Clary's skin care routine and wanting to know how he does it.

I disagree, I think Christina looks far better than Glenda.

There is a trailer doing the rounds, I’ve just seen it about what is coming up on Corrie so just be warned

JewelleryCat · 13/07/2026 21:14

Betsy didn’t look well

eggandonion · 13/07/2026 21:32

Why is Lisa taking so many tablets? Betsy Lamb is supposed to be blonde.
