CORONATION STREET THREAD. We're still in a heatwave, and it's going to be stuffy in that prison for Sarah! Nearly August 2026 already! **No spoilers please.**

[SabreIsMyFave]

Shiny new thread.

So, Sarah's been arrested for killing Theo, Kit is trying to get her out of prison without implicating himself, (and is desperate to pin it on Gary,) and Gary and Maria are at loggerheads after Gary decided to help Sarah cover her tracks!

Swain is as useless as ever, constantly talking very loudly about any case she's working on, and in front of as many people as possible!

Betsy has had a stroke, after engaging in non-fatal strangulation during sex with Dylan, and Dylan's in trouble for it, even though Betsy doesn't blame him. Sean (his dad) is trying to blame anyone but him, even Brodie!

Most other storylines/characters seem to be fairly quiet at the moment, but I'm sure they will touch on them again soon...

Ah, yes, Sienna was Asha's mentor, apologies.

I wasn't being mean by saying Sienna is about 40, (honestly!) I only said 40, because I looked the actress up, and I found a profile that said she is 39. So I assumed the character is about the same age......

Also I thought (from what they were saying about the age gap between Sienna and Asha, and Asha saying 'what will we have in common,') that Sienna was meant to be about 17-18 years older than Asha. And I think Asha is about 20-21...

.

Didn’t realise Asha was that young! She’s very mature for her age.

Asha and Sienna just don't gel as a possible couple. Sienna is old enough to be her mother. Sienna looks awkward in every scene.
Are we supposed to believe that baby Harper was sleeping in a Moses basket? She is a big, bonny bouncing bay who looks amazing considering her health issue and length of time in hospital.
As for Tyrone and his long lost father, what a total, unbelievable crock of poop!

'Arper is very healthy looking alright, and while thankfully I haven't any experience of it, I think if my baby was in hospital for months I would be loath to let her out of my sight.
As for Tyrone's dad, has anyone asked him anything about his life? Presumably he doesn't have a criminal record if he is working as a prison officer, but has anyone asked him if he has a wife, or children, he has just dropped in out of a clear blue sky. Weird.

Yes she is. She comes across as about 28-30 (though looks around 20-22.)

@Lorrymum I agree about Asha and Sienna. They don't seem to gel.

Agree with all of this! ^

Maureen Lipman needs to return and get rid of rotten Ross.
I thought babies who had been in hospital were very used to lots of activity so being upstairs would be too quiet?

I think I must have missed last night's episode. Or maybe I fell asleep.

She tried to tell David but he wasn't listening to her.

It was nice to see Rita in it again. And a sweet exchange between her and David.

I wondered about the very short interaction between Rita and David in the cafe last night. It was nice, could have been made more of, but felt like a deliberate putting the two of them in a scene for a reason.

Nobody even asked how old he was when said it was his birthday, which was weird considering they must have known how old Cassie was when she gave birth

She was in 'This is England 88' playing someone who was about 18 and that was 15 years ago.

So she probably is older than I thought

I missed the bit with Rita!

You must have blinked.

That Jodie’s hair definitely looks very wig like !

How did Ross figure out that Cassie put the drugs in his smoothie?

Packet and crushed meds on counter. Cassie running away. Not rocket science.

I didn't think Adam could get any worse as a solicitor but sitting Abi down and giving her conflicting advice was absurd, especially as Idris's cousin was involved

Oh Tracy.

I only asked a question because I only saw her running away. I thought she took the packet with her

Actually, I didn't put 2 and 2 together with that either @JewelleryCat I thought Cassie was using the drugs for herself. I didn't even know that was a smoothie that Ross had, or that Cassie had put ground down drugs in it. So I guess he gave it to Tracy then? (The smoothie?) I can't have been paying full attention.

I actually thought it was green juice but Ross called it a smoothie, what Amy made. I didn’t see her put the drugs in but she got Tyrone’s tablets but I still don’t know how he figured it out but he must have given it to Tracy because he said I’ll get you the smoothie Amy made or wording like that
