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!

Yes Cassie was off her face drunk. And nothing happened. And she wants Steve anyway. So she’s not going to be jealous of Tracy, just irritated that he’s still around.

I'm worse than that, I sobbed at the end of Monsters Inc. I mean a cartoon blue monster upset about being cut off from a cartoon toddler. GC looked puzzled.

It doesn't sound weird at all @HaddyAbrams , it's good that you can talk about things like that with them. And right!

Oh good, I've had people tell me before that it's weird! We had a chat earlier about flavoured lube (I don't understand why you'd need it) which then moved on to flavoured condoms and then glow in the dark ones. Grin

@JMSA I ugly cried when that poor boy asked for his mum. Proper, full on sobbing.

So did I. It was heartbreaking 😞

Oh. Now that is weird.

I didn't know there was such a thing as flavoured lube. Ew. 😳

Ha, glow in the dark. What was that song - Olivia Newton John - feel your way - the old ways were the best!!

Aaaanyway, as you were Corrie peeps Blush

Triskellion75 · 17/07/2026 18:56

My 21 year old is pretty switched on but even she was shocked that even a few seconds pressure can be so dangerous. Had a very good chat with my 15 year old son on the subject too.

zanahoria · 17/07/2026 21:43

Poor Betsy! Stuck in hospital while everyone else stirs up trouble for her

Uhhh... yes. Sorry for the derail everyone!

the80sweregreat · 17/07/2026 21:54

Lauren couldnt wait to stir it up could she. Although Shaun seems desperate to get his son off as well
i knew Kit wouidnt get the phones wiped without a pay back. I’m surprised that Gary agreed to this!

zanahoria · 17/07/2026 21:56

Surely Gary would have his own dodgy phone wiping mates?

Yep, he took his eye off the ball there !

I missed the first half...what has happened to Dylan? Joel seemed the sort of person who would choke...what is Lauren up to?

JewelleryCat · 17/07/2026 22:08

I just thought, wouldn’t Lisa be on compassionate leave with what’s happened to Betsy and not still working?

WiddlinDiddlin · 17/07/2026 22:08

Dylan is gutted and can't believe what he and Betsy have been messing about with was dangerous or wrong, because it seems they both saw it, wanted to try it, consented to it.

Betsy doesn't want Dylan in trouble... but her Mum is out for revenge, Lauren has decided Dylan must be an abuser due to her own past experiences, so she is meddling.

Dylan did go to visit and Lauren kicked him out and lied to him that Betsy doesn't want to see him, and then lied to Betsy that he hasn't been in.

Sean can't believe Dylan would hurt Betsy, so HE'S planted the seed that Brodie did it and that Betsy is cheating, which is messing with Dylans mind... and now Betsy has been told that Dylan thinks this, but he didn't and probably still doesn't, he's just terrifed, upset and on edge and being fed a load of shit by various people.

So thats all going to end really well.

the80sweregreat · 17/07/2026 22:09

Lisa’s new sidekick is probably after her job ! She can sense that she’s not that committed at the moment.

SabreIsMyFave · 17/07/2026 22:49

I did laugh when Ross ditched Tracy, and she squirted ketchup all over his food and in his cup of tea! 😆

Swain is annoying me, and like a few others I'm a bit 🙄at the thought of her being in Corrie a lot in the coming weeks/months. She may have a problem making the charge stick against Dylan if Betsy won't testify.

Also getting a bit annoyed with Lauren. And yes, she couldn't wait to stir, and was actually embellishing what happened!

Thanks for the explanation...I think maybe they should have waited until after Theo was sorted and Jodie sent packing before the next issue.

JewelleryCat · 17/07/2026 23:12

Yes Lauren did lie but she was horrified, protecting her friend and it might have brought her trauma with Joel back up and wants Dylan punished. Just a different perspective to why she embellished things

bizzey · 18/07/2026 01:38

I have watched both episodes and read the thread ...and no one has mentioned poor little Frankie crying in the cafe ☹️☹️.
It wasn't proper crying ...it was just a little child upset and silent tears crying with red eyes and red nose ☹️☹️😥.

Absolutely broke my heart that did .

Take the child out of the scenes if he is upset .

He was not needed in that scene .

LesserSpottedCharacter · 18/07/2026 09:38

They could have made Gary handing over his phone a bit more realistic by giving him the line "How long will it be?". How many folk would hand over the thing that has their whole life on it without wanting to know that??

I don't like the way all this is going with Betsy/Dylan. It's bad enough that it happened at all but for bloody Sean to put the cheating thing into Dylan's head is just shit.

the80sweregreat · 18/07/2026 09:44

Shaun is trying to get him off any charges isn’t he. Which isn’t great , but I can imagine that people do this when their back is against the wall.

the80sweregreat · 18/07/2026 09:45

Jodie is still about. When is Harper coming home ? She’s been in there a long time.

It just seems the usual Corrie thing of characters digging themselves further into a hole. If it was consensual he should stick to that story rather than point the finger elsewhere. He had already been interviewed by the police and released, daft to to react to Lauren's goading.

I wish they hadn't gone down this route. The initial episode was well done. I don't know much about this issue but I know that but gossiping and lying about a young woman's sex life is totally wrong but they are all doing it here.

Myrealnameisbetty · 18/07/2026 10:23

We've just had a token and privileged 🙄 glimpse of the quads and chaotic cramped home of permanently worried looking Chesney plus shouty whatsername so that's supposed to make it believable that they're living in an overcrowded tiny terraced house and making no effort to move to a bigger house with a garden.

As for the baby Harper situation methinks the writers will surprise us (or not) with some stupid and insulting to our intelligence storyline which keeps us watching but not for the right reasons. 😱

What was the point of Jawzif having to leave Oakhill because his granny (forgotten name) could no longer cover the fees, only for Chez and thingy, who's name I've also forgotten, to come tearing into the cafe rejoicing that it would all now be fine and granny can still afford to pay?

Dev and Bernie are actually paying the school fees (well Dev) but because Chesney wouldn't accept their offer, they've got granny to pretend she can afford it after all.
