Listener Questions

Conversation Street ·

2025/04/17

It's time for another Listener Questions segment, and this time, we've got a pair from listeners Jon and Joanne. First off, we're challenged to come up with an all-star Corrie cast, going down the street and only allowing one family from each house from the show's 65-year history. Of course, Ken and Deirdre are a shoe-in for Number 1, but what about the rest of the Street? Then after that, we're asked to share our thoughts on the current state of the Corrie sets - which are some of our favourites,

Angela and Tommy Harris Character Profile

Conversation Street ·

2025/04/01

For this week's bonus podcast, we do a classic character profile, taking a look back at the characters of Angela and Tommy Harris. Arriving on the cobbles in 2003 under the alias Nelson as part of a witness protection scheme, the Harris family brought plenty of drama to Coronation Street over a three year period. From Tommy’s tough love parenting and Angela’s struggle to keep their family together, to Katy’s shocking affair with Martin Platt and the tragic events that followed, the Harrises had a

On our latest podcast, we chat about all the drama on the cobbles between the 25th and the 28th March 2025 (Episodes #11,525 - 11,530).After a tense, six-day standoff since our previous visit to the Street, the hostage action finally picked up again on Tuesday, with Carla and Lisa added to the mix to really dial up the tension as an unhinged Rob threatens to take one of them down with him. Meanwhile, we're feeling extremely smug as our long-held theory about Daisy's involvement in Tom's death is

On our latest podcast, we have a natter about the episodes of Corrie shown in the UK between the 3rd and the 7th March 2025 (Episodes #11,507 - 11,512).It seems that barely a fortnight can go by at the moment without Corrie treating us to a big, hyped up episode, and after the stabbing, the fire and the kidnapping, this Wednesday saw David counting down the hours to his own demise in a desperate attempt to get Harvey off his back. We're not sure what was faster, to be honest - Andy careening down

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown between the 24th and the 27th February 2024 (Episodes #11,501 - 11,506).It was a bit of a barm cake of a week this week, with a fantastic visit to Weatherfield on Wednesday sandwiched between two episodes that really did leave a bit of a bitter taste in our mouths. To learn that such a chirpy, positive character as Julie has returned to the Street after ten years not to inject a ray of sunshine into the sometimes quite bleak world of

Corrie in 2024: A Year In Review

Conversation Street ·

2025/01/07

In this week’s bonus episode, we take a deep dive into all things Coronation Street in 2024 - a year where the drama behind the scenes often rivalled what was playing out on screen! From the departure of producer Iain Macleod and the early releases on ITVX, to a wave of concerning press articles about the state of our beloved soap, it was certainly a bit of a challenging year to be a Corrie fan. But as always, there were plenty of moments that stood out for the right reasons. For every misstep -

On our first episode of the 2025, we chat about what went down in Weatherfield between the 30th December and the 3rd January (Episodes #11,454 - 11,460).Swarla fans may not have got their Christmas Day pizza fest, but there was plenty of the pair on our screens this week to enjoy, including an impromptu declaration of love from Carla as the bells tolled midnight on New Year's Eve - but are her feelings reciprocated? Speaking of the Swains, Betsy's getting all loved up with Mason this week, but when

On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 16th and the 20th December (Episodes #11,441 - 11,446).It may be the season of goodwill an' all, but sorry, we just can't bring ourselves to feel all that charitable about the Lauren story this week, which reared its head again with a fresh batch of misery for the terminally tragic teen. This time, Frankie's being diagnosed with aplastic anaemia - will Dee-Dee step in to help, even if it means keeping her own

Corrieliminator: Round 7

It's been a bit of a while since Round 6, but Corrieliminator is back! Once again, we've got another set of thirty randomly chosen characters from across the years to rank and Corrieliminate, leaving only a handful to make it to next year's grand finale. From legends like Deirdre and Derek to... more forgettable characters like Mel Morton and Lucy Barlow (see, we had to put their surnames in so you knew who we were talking about!), everyone's case is put forward - but only three can get through to

On our latest podcast, we have a natter about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 18th and the 22nd November (Episodes #11,417 - 11,422).It's the aftermath of the big whodunnit week, and Max is behind bars again after confessing to the murder to protect Lauren. Unfortunately for him, when David and Shona find out about what he's done, David's happy to throw Lauren under the bus - but did he do the right thing?

We're up in Manchester for a few days at the moment with a bit of a busy schedule, so this week's podcast is a Street Talk only affair, covering the episode of Corrie shown in the UK between the 28th October and the 1st November (Episodes #11,399 - 11,404)The flashbacks return in this week's episodes of Corrie, giving us a few more hints as to what happened the night of Joel's death.

Beth Sutherland Character Profile Revisit

Back when we first profiled Beth in Episode #122 of the podcast, she'd only been a regular on the cobbles a few years. Fast forward a decade and the stylish stitcher has sewn her last gusset at Underworld, moving onto pastures new in Norfolk. This week, we take a look back at what she's been up to in the last ten years, reliving our favourite Beth moments and pondering whether she lived up to the expectations we had of her back in her first profile!

And the reason for this little faux jaunt? Why, to raise more issues of course! Well we certainly won't be heading to southeastern Europe for liposuction any time soon, we can tell you

Jed Stone Character Profile

2024/09/17

This week's bonus podcast is a character profile of Jed Stone, following the sad news of actor Kenneth Cope's passing last week. A bit of a proto-Eddie Yeats figure, Jed ducked and dived his way around Weatherfield during the 1960s, though he's perhaps best known in this stint for his touching relationship with landlady Minnie Caldwell. Jed returned to the cobbles 42 years later in 2008, and many of you will remember how he almost came a cropper at the hands of Tony Gordon!

But with the 'sisters before misters' stance she takes on Friday, is that one relationship that's not getting any further

Iain MacLeod Retrospective

Last Wednesday marked the first time that Iain MacLeod was not listed as Corrie's producer since he took over the reins from Kate Oates in late 2018. With the episodes going forward now bearing wife Verity's name, soon to be replaced by that of incoming producer Kate Brooks, Iain's time at the top on Corrie is finally at an end. Well, unless you count his promotion to Executive Producer, but that's another story... For this week's bonus podcast, we reflect on the five and a half years that Iain was
