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...

Oh my days man, could Mary BE any more annoying?

Was anyone else bemused by tonight’s ending? It just seemed sudden and random.

SabreIsMyFave · 26/08/2026 21:50

@JMSA Mary's behaviour tonight was very odd. I don't mind the character and think Patti Clare is a good actress, but there was a bit of over-acting there from her tonight!

And yeah, tonight did end abruptly!

Have I lived a sheltered life, or is it common for people to randomly jump into bed with each other in the middle of the day? Particularly in a house/pub they share with family / several other people?!

Todd bedding Glenda's date approximately five minutes after bumping into him in the street. Mrs Doyle and Brian at it in the Rovers out of nowhere?! 😳😳

Andepeda · 26/08/2026 23:11

The thought of Brian and Mrs Doyle in bed is not something I care to dwell on.

Ahh, g'wan, g'wan....😳

bizzey · 26/08/2026 23:41

I don't understand Brian and Ma Doyle .
Brian's moral compass is way above a quickie like that !

FeltCarrot · 27/08/2026 07:42

Would Jake even know what Ryvita is? I think it’s more a scriptwriter joke than something. 12 year old would say.

JewelleryCat · 27/08/2026 08:41

I thought Brian would have ended up with Mary, they seem well suited

That seemed to be the direction a while ago. Brian and Mrs Driscoll seemed very random.

It’s a bit one sided. Mary clearly adores Brian but he sees her as a good friend and that’s it.
I actually think the randomness of Brian and Ma Driscoll was quite funny, very unexpected 😀
Ma Driscoll ( can never remember her 1st name (
Isn’t the nicest of people, but she’s not as crazy as Mary!

About a million years ago I used to watch Neighbours and would get so annoyed at the adults pandering to shouting children and giving in to their demands. I had the same feeling with Sally and Tim and that bloody Lucy last night. Look where we are already, in RL, by not saying no and there being no consequences for bad behaviour.

I can't remember the ending last night, was it to do with Jake filming Christina?

sorryIdidntmeanto · 27/08/2026 11:01

Izzy in the pub while her son wanders the streets. Do people in Corrie not need to look after their kids?

Lorrymum · 27/08/2026 12:56

Total drivel last night. Brian is the latest to have his character assassinated by terrible writing. Sleeping with Maggie!!
Perhaps Corrie needs to return to being on 2 nights a week. Less shows and more carefully crafted scripts and storylines.

Deadringer · 27/08/2026 13:29

Brian was always a bit of a dickhead, wasn't he married but having a relationship with Julie when he first appeared? (She didn't know he was married). I liked Mary in her early days on the street but at this stdge she is just ridiculous, almost unwatchable actually.

Empress13 · 27/08/2026 13:31

Last nights was just a comedy sketch whoever is writing this drivel needs sacking

Exactly when did you last see a 13 year old eat a ryvita !

The worst one was Stu's grand daughter who was constantly beating him for getting stuff wrong

OnTheBoardwalk · 27/08/2026 14:03

Where is Brody living? They’ve just completely washed their hands of him

kick Lucy out and give him his room back

LesserSpottedCharacter · 27/08/2026 14:48

Yes @zanahoria ! Bloody infuriating, the lot of them 😡

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 27/08/2026 15:02

JellyBeanSpring25 · 26/08/2026 00:43

A little sad and ironic that Celeste wants a Dolly Parton inspired funeral 😢

I imagine they edited that in

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 27/08/2026 15:10

Going by Lucy’s part of the phone conversation with her dad it looks to me like he is taking the blame for her or perhaps he wants to get their stories straight and say that his wife attacked him first. It’s was also totally predictable that Lucy and Joanie were going to be killing each other.
I wonder what’s going on with Kits nose bleeds.

thenightsky · 27/08/2026 15:16

I assumed the blood on Kit's clothing wasn't his, hence his grabbing the shirt off Bethany.

No they didn’t, it’s just a coincidence, quite nice, I thought!

bizzey · 27/08/2026 15:25

I just hope that Celeste's funeral doesn't air in the same day as Dolly's funeral 😔

Yes Holly in Neighbours was so bratty and obnoxious Hannah button Martin

Jake needs to wind his neck in as well

what happened to the 5 minute wonder piano, sure it wasn’t there later

also doesn’t Sally need to go back to work.
