Conversation Street

On this week's podcast, we chat about the drama in Weatherfield between the 7th and the 12th June (Episodes #11,873 - 11,877).

Although there were a handful of scenes focusing on Debbie and the Platts' stories this week, the lion's share of the screen time was given to Sam's psychosis and the ongoing murder investigation, with Corrie continuing to drip feed us information about what exactly happened the night Theo died. We have to admit, we found the revelation that Gary was up there on the scaffolding at some point the night of the murder particularly intriguing, but do we think he was the killer? Despite the bloodied scaffold (or was it a sledgehammer?) in his hand, we're going to say no. As for the other major story, we know that Evil Roy is a total Marmite addition to the show, but for those of us who can't get enough of it, we were dining on a deliciously thick helping this week - and honestly, we couldn't take our eyes off the screen whenever he came on! With Sam ending the week at the hospital, though, is this the last we'll see of the Shakespeare-quoting figment of the boy's imagination, or does Evil Roy still have one final act to play?

Not really anything huge in the way of Corrie news this week, so we give The Kabin a swerve, but as always there's plenty of feedback to get share!

For this week's bonus podcast, we take a look at a selection of Corrie characters who've been banged up for crimes they didn't commit! With both Summer and Debbie spending time at His Majesty's pleasure in the past few months alone, we thought the time was right to chat about this increasingly common type of storyline, exploring when it works and when it falls sadly short. Plenty of characters have followed in Deirdre's footsteps since she famously cried out in court that she "didn't do any of it!" back in 1998, but have any of Corrie's attempts to recreate the success of that story ever come close? 
Unfortunately, time has not been on our side this week, and we've not managed to cover every single wrongful imprisonment storyline the show has produced over the years. Don't worry though - we'll be back next week with Part 2! In the meantime, we'd love to hear from you: which Weatherfield miscarriage of justice storylines stand out as your favourite and least favourite? Write in and let us know!

On this podcast, we chat about what went on in Weatherfield between the 1st and the 4th June 2026 (Episodes #11,869 - 11,872).

This week saw Daniel hit rock bottom after a meltdown at school before following in the footsteps of both Will and Sarah by getting completely plastered. Will Adam and Tracy’s scheme to teach the teacher a lesson be enough to pull him out of his downward spiral, or is he beyond help at this point? Meanwhile, Jodie continues to work towards her mysterious endgame, whatever that may actually be (seriously, does anyone know?). Also this week, Todd’s missing phone leads Lisa down another avenue in Theo’s murder case, Idris and Leanne continue to get cosy and Sam finds himself pushed aside by Hope in favour of Will. With Evil Roy’s influence still hanging over him, just what might he be persuaded to do next?

Up next on the podcast, it's The Kabin, where congratulations are in order for a couple of cast members and we take a look at the latest chaos that the World Cup is about to inflict on the schedules. We round off the podcast with more of your fantastic feedback.

After 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.

On 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.
