Resident Review - 3 Coronation Street
Yesterday01:07:43Tap to summarizeAfter debuting our latest series four weeks ago - the Resident Review - we're back again to discuss the state of another household. Rather than going directly next door to the Rovers and chatting about Number 1 (as we know there's something important coming up there pretty soon), we thought we'd skip over to the Baileys at Number 3. You can't deny that they've been very much on the quiet side of late, and it could even be argued that all this time after their debut, they've still not properly settled in, but we use this episode as a chance to review their current status on the Street, look back at their most recent stories, and ponder what the powers that be should do with them next.

5d ago03:33:15Tap to summarizeOn this week's episode of the podcast, we chat about what happened in Corrie between the 25th and the 29th May (Episodes #11,864 - 11,868). There's a new guy in town, and in keeping with seemingly all of Corrie's new additions to the cast recently, he's a bit of a git! Idris schmoozed his way into Weatherfield this week, and it didn't take long for Leanne to fall for his roguish charms - just how long will it take for her to find out he's not quite as 'chill' as he first appears? Also this week, Daniel loses control after Truthteller's trolling intensifies, Ben worries that Megan's left Will seriously damaged, and Tyrone's got a secret that could set Summer free... but will he risk his own arrest by revealing what he knows about the night Theo died? Up next on the podcast it's The Kabin, where we take a first look at the scheduling chaos in store for Corrie once the World Cup starts, and we round off the podcast with more of your feedback on the recent goings on in Weatherfield.

Transcribe →The Hopkins Family Character Profile
1w ago01:28:08Tap to summarizeIt’s time for another classic character profile - though this week, we’re tackling an entire family in one go, because let’s face it, most of them probably couldn’t sustain a whole episode on their own! Arriving on the cobbles in 1974, the Hopkins clan - henpecked husband Idris, long-suffering Vera and formidable matriarch Megan - only stuck around for six months, so what exactly went wrong, and did the show give up on them too soon? We discuss the family’s brief and, at time, chaotic stay in Weatherfield and the continuing adventures of daughter Tricia, who managed to outlast the rest of her relatives and carve out a few memorable stories of her own.

2w ago03:07:40Tap to summarizeOn the latest episode of Conversation Street, we chat about all the Corrie drama between the 18th and the 22nd May 2026 (Episodes #11,859 - 11,864). This week's Corrie had a major focus on Summer, who'd been doing a pretty good job of flying under the radar since the wedding episode despite viewers knowing that she was one of the last people to see him alive. Thanks to a few pieces of compelling evidence, the police haul her in for questioning this week and by the end of Friday's episode she's being charged with murder - but just why is Tyrone keeping quiet about her evidence, and what exactly is Christina still hiding? Also this week, Jodie continues to play her manipulative game with Daniel, Maggie begins to worm her way back into the Rovers and Roy's Rolls has its not so grand reopening. Up next, it's The Kabin, and we check out who has - and possibly more importantly this year! - has not been nominated for an NTA, and we round off the show with more of your listener feedback.

Transcribe →Listener Questions - Characters We've Changed Our Minds On + Kids Returning As Adults!
2w ago01:19:06Tap to summarizeThis week's bonus podcast is a listener question segment, where we mull over two more topics suggested by our lovely ducklings. First off, Lese wants to know about the characters we've done a bit of a U-turn on over the years. Is there anyone we used to love but have gone cold on over the years? What about characters we've grown to love? Turns out there are plenty! After that, we tackle a questions from Rebecca, who wants to know if there are any children from Corrie's past who we'd like to see return as an adult. What would they be like, and what would be the reason to bring them back? We reckon we get a couple of good ideas together here! As always, we'd love to know your thoughts on these topics, so let us know in the comments!

3w ago03:58:45Tap to summarizeOn this week's podcast, we chat about everything that went on in Weatherfield between the 11th and the 15th May (Episodes #11,854 - 11,858) It’s been a long time coming, but Tim finally got that chat with Will this week, convincing the lad not only to admit that the rumours about him and Megan were true, but also to report her to the police - but is there enough evidence to put her away for good? Meanwhile, Sam’s hallucinations take an even darker turn when he thinks he overhears Nick and Toyah talking about him and receives a visit from a deeply sinister and uncanny Roy. Just what will this devil on his shoulder persuade him to do next? Also this week, Maggie drops a bombshell on Ben when she’s forced to confess what really happened the night his father died, Summer reveals she’s been offered a university place in America, and Daniel strikes up an unexpected friendship with Jodie. In The Kabin segment, we're joined by John from Corriepedia, who chats about some remarkable discoveries made this week about Corrie's 1960 dry runs, and we finish off the show with more of your fabulous feedback.

Transcribe →Sam Blakeman Character Profile
3w ago01:56:04Tap to summarizeThis week’s bonus episode of the podcast is a character profile of someone who’s definitely up there as one of our favourite characters of the 2020s: Sam Blakeman. Ever since he first rocked up in his newfound dad Nick’s life six years ago, we’ve loved the precocious young scamp’s quirky personality, passion for science and astronomy and knack for making even the most hardened of Weatherfield criminals go soft around the edges. Over the years, he’s been through far more than most adults on the Street - from Natasha’s tragic death and his heartbreaking selective mutism to chess tournaments, prison visits and his on-off romance with Hope - and through it all, Jude Riordan has continued to give one of the strongest performances from a young actor we’ve ever seen on the show. In this episode, we chart Sam’s story from the very beginning, discuss his best relationships, revisit some of his biggest moments and consider where we'd like Corrie to take Sam in the future once he's finished navigating that tricky time in anyone's life that is high school... So grab your telescope, point it towards Weatherfield and join us as we blast off through the life and times of one of Corrie’s brightest young stars!

4w ago03:39:57Tap to summarizeIn this week's podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 4th and the 8th May (Episodes #11,849 - 11,853). The murder victim has finally revealed, and we can finally all stop speculating about who's going to croak - and move on to who actually dunnit. Corrie's already revealed their suspect lineup, and this week, we get to see how they act in the immediate aftermath of Theo's body being found. In the case of George, Todd and Christina, we can all agree that they very likely had nothing to do with it, and although there's definitely still something Gary's keeping quiet about, we can't imagine it was him either. There's also the question that none of the other characters are asking yet (since they don't know she was there) - what went down between Summer and Theo in the moments before he was bashed on the bonce, and why hasn't she told anyone she was in the flat with him? Despite all this, our prime suspect is still Miles - or at a push, his mum Danielle. Let's see how the coming weeks unfold and maybe our minds will be changed, eh? Just a tiny Kabin segment this week as we get very excited about the news that Julie Hesmondhalgh will be taking part in the next series of Celebrity Traitors, and we round off the show by hearing about more of your thoughts and theories on Murder Week in the feedback section.

Transcribe →Resident Review: The Rovers Return
4w ago01:16:46Tap to summarizeFor this week’s bonus episode, we’re launching a brand new series where we take an in-depth look at the residents of a single home on the Street, sharing our thoughts on how they’re faring in the show right now. First up, we’re heading to the Rovers Return to talk all things Driscoll - Corrie’s newest family, who’ve been at the centre of the action since arriving last October. From Maggie’s secret connection to Jim McDonald to Will’s grooming storyline and Ben’s possible heart condition, they’ve certainly not been short of drama. Now that they’ve been around for six months, it feels like the perfect time to sit down and have a proper natter about how they’re settling in.
Transcribe →Murder Week Feedback
May 301:24:04Tap to summarizeWe’re back, just as promised, with the feedback edition of Episode #730 - and you certainly had plenty to say about Corrie’s dramatic Murder Week! From glowing praise to outright frustration, we’ve had a brilliant mix of reactions, along with some intriguing theories about what might happen next. And of course, we also chip in with a fair bit of extra commentary of our own along the way. A huge thank you to everyone who got in touch - the podcast genuinely wouldn’t be the same without you!
