CORONATION STREET THREAD. Things are heating up! We should be finding out who killed Theo soon! Now in mid June 2026. **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

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 cry at anything now post meno-pause !
I thought the meno-pause was meant to turn me into a hard nosed , uncaring witch 😅😁😁😅!

I went and saw Annie the Musical a few months ago ...I was in floods at the ending and their curtain call !😁😁

Oh yes, that was awful. I cried at that too, especially Johnny finding him and you heard him saying over and over 'my boy, oh not my boy'.

Shocked at Dylan turning out to be an abusive arse!

Did anyone else think Betsy was going to be pregnant, when the doctor said the scan had picked something up?
I was convinced she was going to be told that her pregnancy brought about seizures 😳🤦‍♀️
I think this storyline is worthwhile because it’s not black and white. Dylan is a good kid who did a wrong thing, no doubt fuelled by porn. Anything that spreads awareness is good in my books 👍

I thought she'd be pregnant too. Or that Dylan would admit they hadnt had sex and it wasn't him.

I think Dylan being a nice lad is the whole point of the storyline. Consensual choking is seen as completely normal and not abuse. So he doesn't think of it like that. But there are still risks.

I was surprised the doctor discussed it with her there. Betsy is an adult isn't she?

And Betsy thought the same, she said so to Lisa. I can't think of her exact words but it was very much that it was normal and everyone does it. I think that's what she said but I do think the heat is affecting my brain so maybe I imagined it.

Yes she did say that.

@TheignT no you didn’t imagine it. Betsy did say to Lisa that it was normal and Lisa said it wasn’t normal

I saw a comment on fb that questioned why it was definitely weird sex and not the time she got shot in the arm.

Presumably because it was caused by compression to the carteroid artery. Not by a gunshot to the arm?

That's a relief. I've got a lot going on, caring for DH, childcare for GC, death of a close relative this week. Combined with the heat I wouldn't be surprised if I was imagining things.

I think Betsy and Dylan seemed lovely together so I feel a bit sad for them.

Until this storyline I didn't even know it was so common. I'd heard of people hanging themselves for sexual.purposes, but had only heard of Tory MP's & possibly Michael Hutchence doing that. I didn't know that huge numbers of people were choking each other for fun! 😳

That sounds so hard, I’m sorry with all you’re going through and yes, the heat doesn’t help. Dylan seems a nice bloke but I guess that’s why they did the storyline with him

I don't think it is that common. But porn means people think it is. So I guess it's becoming more common as a result.

I can't get my head round why it would be fun. I mean I know there are some strange sexual things that people like but the idea that lots of young people think this is normal just seems ridiculous.

I'm confused by the shot in the arm stuff with Betsy. If it happened then it had to have been very recent to have been the cause of the stroke..

I think I’m finally done with Coronation St.
This latest storyline is just too much for me.
Bring back Jack & Vera.

I thought the strangulation was the cause, that’s why we have this storyline with Betsy. I don’t understand the shot in the arm

At least they did not get up to that sort of thing

Tracy has developed a bizarre attraction to fat blokes in terrible wigs, not to mention a weird desire to have sex with them in an overcrowded house where her father, daughter and ex-husband live.

I bet none of them would dare to choke Tracy.

I am outraged at the shabby way George and Christina are treating poor Mary, the absolute cheek of the pair

I fear that Tracy love will have her heart broken.
Ross doesn’t seem the faithful sort.

Croccie choccies or whatever that cereal is called! Made me laugh.

I don't know much about this sex strangling stuff but fairly it is not the sort of thing Swain should be shouting about in the cafe.

Not as a police officer and not as a mother
