Conversation Street

On the latest episode of the podcast, we chat about all the drama in Weatherfield between the 15th and the 19th December (Episodes #11,746 - 11,751). It's starting to become a bit of a tradition that the Monday visit to the cobbles is something of a special episode, isn't it? Recently, we've had Debbie's girls' night out, Maggie's flashback, and this week we were treated to director Matt Hilton's 'Behind Closed Doors' ep, a captivating hour of telly where we got to see the full extent of Theo's abuse of Todd via the lenses of in-world cameras - and we were on the edge of our seats from start to finish! Elsewhere on the Street, Dee-Dee definitely got the memo about how to do a speedy, low-key exit - but it might have been nice to have given a bit more consideration to James, don't you think? Also this week, Cassie and Tracy continue to bicker, Sally struggles to parent a mardy teen, and Will and Megan are nearly caught in the act - as are Carl and James! Up next on the podcast, it's The Kabin, where we chat a bit about this week's Corriedale press event, then we round off the show by blasting through some of your fabulous feedback.

On our latest podcast, we chat about Corrie's 65th anniversary week, the episodes shown between the 8th and the 12th December 2025 (Episodes #11,740 - 11,745) Tell you what - you go nearly 65 years with nary a snifter of a flashback on Coronation Street, and in 2025, two episodes revolving round them have turned up at once. Whilst Kit's earlier this year felt like more of a bigger production, though, this week's look into Maggie's past was far more low key - though the revelation at the end that she's been covering up her involvement in Ben's father's death for all these years has certainly had many viewers looking at her in a different light now! And speaking of non-linear storytelling, was it just us, or did Carla and Lisa's break up on Friday's episode smack of déjà vu? Also this week, Debbie and Ronnie bring their wedding forward to the New Year, and Megan and Will arouse Lauren's suspicions...  Up next on the podcast, we take a look at the Corriedale broadcast schedule, and we round things off with more of your listener feedback.

In the second of our special episodes marking Corrie’s legendary tram crash disaster, we head behind the scenes to explore exactly how this unforgettable week came to life. From the first spark of the idea in the writing room, to the movie level special effects and the full-throttle promotion of the show’s 50th anniversary, we leave no piece of rubble unturned, and also take a closer look at how the landmark live episode was pulled off. With insights from writer Jan McVerry and memories from cast members including Vicky Binns, Sally Dynevor and Becky Hindley, this deep dive serves up everything you ever wanted to know about making one of Coronation Street’s biggest and boldest weeks ever.

On this weekend's episode of the podcast, we chat about the goings on in Corrie between the 1st and the 5th December (Episodes #11,735 - 11,739). Well what a joyous trip to Weatherfield that was on Monday! Debbie has been the shining star of Coronation Street this year, and between her empowering speech, her boozed up revelries with her mates and her antics in the Fresco trolley, that really was among her best moments. Meanwhile, things certainly aren't looking quite so colourful in the Corner Shop flat, but does Todd's setting up of surveillance cameras hint that he's a bit more aware of what he's going through than we might have previously believed? Also this week, Megan gets a job at Weathy High, Becky comes close to permanently silencing Costello and Dee-Dee announces she's becoming the latest in a long line of Corrie characters this year to up sticks and emigrate - but how will James take the news? Up next on the podcast, it's the Kabin, where we take a look at the Corrie broadcasting schedule over the festive period. We've then got a bumper feedback section full of listeners' thoughts about the latest Corrie developments, and we round off the show with a Kabin Extra, where we pull apart this week's Corriedale teaser trailer - did it do enough to get us hyped? We have mixed feelings! Street Talk - 00:14:39 The Kabin - 03:00:28 Feedback - 03:10:25 Kabin Extra - 04:00:41
