Conversation Street

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown between the 17th and the 21st August (Episodes #11,923 - #11,927).

Ollie’s certainly on a winning streak this week! Not only does he clean up at a poker game in Speed Daal, he ends the night getting lucky with Lauren too. But with Fiona determined to claw back the money she lost, it looks like Ollie and Idris may have more trouble coming their way... Meanwhile, Todd’s back from Thailand - and wastes absolutely no time in reminding us what a git he can be, swooping in and bedding the very man Glenda had her eye on. Is there any defending him this time? Elsewhere, Sarah stands up to Kacey, Shuttleworth’s takes on a new client with a rather unusual request, and Richie piles the pressure on Tim to lie to the police and save him from being sent down.

In The Kabin, we see who's made it to th NTA shortlist and reveal the latest Corrie merch at the tour shop, and we round off the show with more of your feedback, including a reaction to the new Studio 1 tour!

In our latest Resident Review, we take a look behind the doors of Number 1 Coronation Street, the home of the Barlows and the McDonalds. With Cassie having just left the Street for pastures unknown, we've been left with a bit of a turning point for the remaining residents - but what should Corrie do to try and leave the characters feeling fresh? To be honest, we're not too sure the characters of Steve, Tracy, Amy and Ken gel well together as a family group - despite enjoying all of the characters in their own way individually! - so it was fun to chat over what could potentially breathe a bit of new life into Number 1. Enjoy!

On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 9th and the 14th August (Episodes #11,918 - #11,922)

There's been a murder! And a suddenly existing relative is involved! This week, Corrie meshes together two ideas that they're really quite fond of recently, which ultimately results in Tim and Sally getting a new foster child to look after - the question is, is she being completely honest about the circumstances surrounding her mother's death? Meanwhile, Sarah splits with Kit in an attempt to protect his career, but he's not willing to let her go without a fight! Also this week, Idris plays dirty to get his hands on Speed Daal, the Bailey boys rally around Ronnie, and opportunity knocks for Nina.

It's been another very quiet week for news, so we give The Kabin a swerve again, but there's no shortage of feedback, with plenty of thoughts on the Dylan and Betsy story to share!

For this week’s bonus podcast, we take a look back on Cassie Plummer’s three years on the cobbles, chronicling her dalliances with drugs, family fall-outs and snuggles and snogs with Steve McDonald. We ponder whether Corrie did the right thing rewriting Tyrone’s family history to bring the Plummers into the show, and consider whether leaving Cassie’s fate shrouded in mystery was the right way to bring her time on the cobbles to a close. Love Cassie or loathe her, it’s impossible to deny the charisma Claire Sweeney brought to the role, and we had a lot of fun revisiting some of her most memorable moments in this discussion. Enjoy!

On our latest podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 3rd and the 6th August 2026 (Episodes #11,914 - #11,917).

What’s that? You thought that just because there were only four episodes of Corrie this week, this would be a short podcast? Au contraire! With the stroke storyline taking centre stage once more and Dylan finding himself on the receiving end of an attack from Lauren, you’d better believe we’ve got plenty to say about where this story is heading! Has he really done enough to show he’s sorry for what he did to Betsy? Is Lisa’s unrestrained anger towards him justified? And will anyone actually listen to what Betsy wants? There’s an awful lot to unpick here! Not only that, but this week also saw Cassie’s mysterious disappearance from Weatherfield - is she dead, or has she simply been Andy Carvered? Elsewhere, we met Tim’s suddenly existing cousin, Kit issued Gary with an ultimatum and Debbie got to thinking about how she wants to go out when the time comes...

No news this week, but as always, there's plenty of feedback to pick through to round off the episode!
