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 think I've missed an episode. Since when did everyone suddenly know that Jodie was the one who hit Sarah over the head?

Since it was mentioned by Sarah about the dog barking - how would Jodie have known ?

Watched two back to back yesterday and was also confused how Shona knew Jodie had assaulted Sarah just like that. Had forgotten about Sam !
I think that it’s the gun that she’s found that everyone else had forgotten about.

And all the tokens from her various crimes eg, Lisa’s Police badge.

Does Ross have a 'real' life. Has he ever mentioned where he lives, family etc?
People seem to arrive on Corrie with no back story or previous friends, family job, life etc.

the80sweregreat · 27/07/2026 14:23

Oh yes, the police badge that Jodie half inched back in April time! All the trinkets. I hope that Shona and David properly dob her in now ! She doesn’t deserve a second chance.

I think it was mentioned. Maybe Cassie asking if he was going back to x (can't remember where)

WiddlinDiddlin · 27/07/2026 15:08

David said something funny last night, a funny reference - it was a bit of an 'under his breath' sort of thing, in the Platt household I think but I cannot remember what it was. Anyone else spot it?

Sarah worked it out a while ago (barking David-dog thing) but only recently told Kit. Who told David & Shona in the salon. Then Shona told Jodie she knew and threw her out (again). Lilly, looking for her confiscated laptop/tablet, then found the trinket box (again). But this time, it had the gun from Karl/Fiona in it.

DJKATIE · 27/07/2026 15:41

I love Corry but the amount of people from one street who have been or are in prison is ridiculous

RockinCara · 27/07/2026 16:17

I didn’t even notice the gun in the shot, and had completely forgotten about it! And Lisa’s badge. What else had she squirrelled? Was there a book of Roy’s?

Do we think Lilly will take the gun and accidentally shoot someone? (how about Ross? Any other suggestions?). Or will Jodie come back for it? And yes - who the heck cut her fringe?? Dave the Dog?!

A photograph where she’d cut the head out-was it Bernie’s?

LesserSpottedCharacter · 27/07/2026 19:38

What's his name who works in the Cabin was going on about a lost book, I think it's that one.

Do we think Lilly will take the gun and accidentally shoot someone? (how about Ross? Any other suggestions?)

How about what's her name (sorry, busy day, brain v tired) who stoats about like a basking shark? Bernie's daughter. And it shouldn't be an accident, it should be very, very deliberate.

@WiddlinDiddlin sorry, it passed me by, which is annoying because I do like a Davidism.

I wonder when his RL short hair cut will make an appearance.

Deadringer · 27/07/2026 19:46

Lily was very quick to see the gun, I only spotted a bit of the handle and wouldn't have known what it was if I wasn't expecting to see it. I wonder how Jodie will wriggle out of this one. Ross is just awful, and I bet he has a wife somewhere.

Empress13 · 27/07/2026 20:11

Couldn’t make head nor tail what was in that box

JewelleryCat · 27/07/2026 20:45

I didn’t think that was nice of David, not letting Sam have a hold of Harper

middlelife · 27/07/2026 21:38

So Lilly has told David about the gun which Carl had. Was it the same gun that Carl held Kev etc hostage in the garage with and was picked up by Kev?

zanahoria · 27/07/2026 21:40

I know Tyrone is thick but he knows his mum was an addict and a prostitute, plus he must be able to work out how old she was when he was born.

Yet not one question.

Jodie can’t wriggle out of the other objects,Lisa’s badge etc . Hopefully her time on Corrie is soon up. She won’t be missed- an irritating, unlikeable character.

Wasntmeanttobelikethis · 27/07/2026 21:54

What was the point of shot of Gemma in shiny lilac outfit? Was waiting for her to say something
Old Tracie would never entertain idea of dating Ross
Jodie needs to go; really do not like her
Am liking new character Idris; he would be good match for Tracie; just hope shiny Abbie doesn't set her sights on him

Clawdy · 27/07/2026 22:33

Glad Lily told David about the gun, thought that would be yet another drawn out storyline.

Yes it's the same gun I think.

That shot of Gemma eating at the bar, and looking like she was about to say something was odd, and she looked awful! Really bad shot of her. I'm not saying the actress herself is bad looking, and I think she is naturally quite attractive, but Gemma as a character is awful, and she looked dreadful tonight. They always seem to catch her shoving food in her face, gurning, and sitting with a bad posture!

I agree that Jodie needs to go, and hopefully the trinket box and gun etc popping up now will be the end of her. They already know that she attacked Sarah. Not sure I believe she has been to the police though. Sick to death of Shona saying 'but David, she's got nowhere else to GO!' and bending over and taking Jodie's crap. I am sick of seeing Jodie's face too, and really dislike her sneer, and her dreadful new haircut. Who the F cut her fringe?! 😬

I don't like Shona much either to be honest. Her constant rolling eyes looks and getting annoyed with David annoy me. I wish her and Jodie would feck off. I have never liked Shona and David as a couple.

Also detest that Ross, and it's as clear as day that he got to that woman first - who had told Cassie about him, and all the problems she had with him. He probably threatened her.

TipsyPeachSnake · 27/07/2026 22:51

I thought that Ross just got some woman he knew to pretend to be the one Cassie was communicating with online as Cassie would have no idea what she looked like.

JewelleryCat · 27/07/2026 22:53

@SabreIsMyFave Sarah said to Bethany that someone told her Jodie went to the police station and confessed to the attack so it doesn’t sound true, I certainly didn’t think so but maybe it is

It’s a way of getting Idris and Sam closer he’s going to worm his way into Leanne’s heart (and probably business) via Sam.
Jodie is lying about going to police can’t believe David was so gullible to believe her! Ross definitely got to that woman first as he must have been waiting for her to turn up he’d know what she looked like. Why the hell didn’t Cassie run after her ?? Makes no sense and yes what was that look with Gemma? Btw she wears a wig (she cut her hair short IRL) hence the hair looking awful but they could have at least put her in a good one !

the80sweregreat · Yesterday 07:28

The woman involved in the Cassie story was awful. I know acting isn’t always easy, but she was dreadful. obviously Ross paid her off or it wasn’t the right woman.

Andepeda · Yesterday 07:59

Why are they gradually making Gemma even more repulsive?

The shot in the Rovers, what was that about?
