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.**

Shiny new thread. Smile

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...

I did laugh at Sarah expecting Kit to bend all the rules, break the law, and make evidence disappear and so on, to help that woman's son 'get off.' LOL, as if. Even if they were still together he wouldn't have done this. Not for some random criminal!

I do feel for Sarah though, as she is literally desperate, and she didn't want to end it with Kit really. You could see her starting to cry as she ended it with Kit last week.

There's no way Kit could do anything though. (To help this woman's son.) And yes, didn't that woman turn nasty?

Poor Sarah. Where does she go from here? I would be so frightened if I was in her position. She pretty much has no-one in there now, and fears she may be in there for many years.

I think Toddington has coloured his hair ! Sarah is deluded if she thinks Fit Kit will help her

It’s not swept back now

zanahoria · 18/08/2026 21:55

Sarah now has Todd and Adam stepping up in her network of supportive exes.

Kit and Gary can take a break

JellyBeanSpring25 · 19/08/2026 00:32

Somethings going on with Fit Kit. Strange phone calls, not at work, sat in his car.

Have to say Brody is growing on me. Hope he doesn’t end up back in the STC or stabbed in the ginnel.

Todd is heading for the alcoholic’s chair.

Hasn’t she got a couple of exes inside the men’s prison too?

middlelife · 19/08/2026 05:37

With Sarah in prison who would get custody of Harry? Can she just give custody to Fit Kit or Adam? Not sure why Bethany isn’t coming forward herself. I hope this isn’t going to go down the route of more prison with Harry’s dad’s family becoming involved.

The Windass will prob break into the prison and finish the old hag off lol
personally I think Sarah should have used her brains got back with Fit Kit and then asked him . After all he was ready to put his job on the line by framing Gareh so think he would have done it for her.
Yes Toddington is going down the alcoholic route. Where is Christina now living ? Hasn’t George dumped her?

Queue Lou to the rescue. She’s still in prison I think?

Lorrymum · 19/08/2026 08:24

Has Sarah actually been charged with anything? Is she on remand and has she appeared in court? Surely bail would have been set while waiting trial for manslaughter.
Or did I fall asleep and miss the whole of Coronation Street providing evidence that Theo was a devious, murdering, manipulative, thug who assaulted and threatened most of them.
Why on earth would the cliche prison cell mate think that Kit could help her son when he could do sod all for his girlfriend!

zanahoria · 19/08/2026 08:54

Sarah always rings her exes to get her out of trouble but it only ends up by dragging them down and her in more of a mess.

At least Kit has the sense to tell her where to go this time.

If she had just fessed up and pleaded self defence there would have been nobody to contradict her and a ton of circumstantial evidence to support her case.

TheignT · 19/08/2026 10:42

Sarah dumped him last week as she did not want his career to suffer.

Tonight she wanted him to throw it away

She's terrified. We don't make the best decisions if we are so frightened.

thenightsky · 19/08/2026 10:51

I'm pretty sure Adam never wanted anything to do with her again after she cheated on him with that criminal Damon, got pregnant and tried to pass it off to Adam as his baby, before suffering a miscarriage. She's actually not a very nice person when you look back at her history.

But then he moved in next door

After the next door neighbour moves in with Sarah

Now Harry is going next door

I presume so Kit and Bethany can start an affair

12234m · 19/08/2026 11:55

I really hope there isn't a Kit and Bethany relationship. It wouldn't be an affair as both are single.

JewelleryCat · 19/08/2026 12:00

Does Adam live next door in Redbank? I thought he lived next to the builders or is that Daniel?

I don't remember where Adam lives but it is Daniel who lives next to the builders, unless he's moved and I missed it

JellyBeanSpring25 · 19/08/2026 16:25

Adam & Alya rent Kits flat (No 6 Redbank), next door to No 7 (Sarah’s).

If he and Sarah have split up then it won’t be an affair. I’m pretty sure Sarah won’t be doing a merry dance over it but they are both free agents

I have put tonight’s episode on mute. I just cannot be bothered with the gambling and this awful Fiona person.

JewelleryCat · 19/08/2026 21:10

What is going on with Kit? Why was he crying?

Yes

I reckon funeral lady. She’s arrived for a reason, it’s got to be to do with Kit. Is she his adoptive Mum? Or maybe the friend who she’s arranging the funeral for (unless it’s her funeral).

JellyBeanSpring25 · 19/08/2026 21:59

And stupid Brody. I can’t say I blame Idris for getting mad at him! Immature and cocky to a tee!

Edited to add: and I like Brody 😊

SabreIsMyFave · 19/08/2026 22:03

I LOVED Sarah firing up and going off on one at that woman saying 'have you forgotten I'm in here for MURDER! Don't ever threaten my son again!'

Also agree the gambling storyline was a bit random, and who the hell is that annoying blonde 'do you know who I AM woman?' She has a very smack-able face. Lauren should have decked her! 😆
