Conversation Street

It's the start of 2023, so time to gaze into that crystal ball once more to find out what's going to be happening in Coronation Street in the next twelve months! How will Max's story come to an end? Who else will fall victim to Stephen? What drama is in store for the precinct? Tune in and find out (and you'd better do it quick before something happens on Corrie to prove us wrong!) 00:01:38 - Looki...

In this episode of the podcast, we take a look back at the past year of Corrie as a whole, and offer our final opinions on the year 2022. From the highs to the lows and everything in between, we reflect on the stories, characters and production bits and pieces that really stood out to us during the year. Abi's baby drama, Fiz's two weddings, comebacks for Stephen, Wendy and Spider, and of course,...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 2nd and the 4th January 2023 (Episodes #10840 - 10845). Well, Corrie sure knows how to start the year with a bang! Also, a splash. And a thwack. Yep, whether or not you enjoyed them, it can't be argued that this week's episodes weren't at least memorable, with the racists' attempted bombing of the We...

On our first podcast of 2023, we chat about goings on in Weatherfield during the run up to New Year, covering the episodes shown between the 28th and the 31st December (Episodes #10835 - 10839) We may have been wrong about Griff plotting something big to coincide with the New Year's Eve celebrations, but it was full steam ahead in the Stephen story, where we almost saw Corrie's latest killer claim...

Another year has come and gone, and that can only mean one thing: another Conversation Street Awards! Who were the Top Lad and Top Lass of 2022? Which surprise twist had us crying out "By 'Eck!"? Who was the wrongest Wrong 'Un, and has Jenny managed to snag the Flamin' Nora award for the eighth year in a row? Listen in to find out!

On our latest podcast, we chat about what's been going on in Weatherfield over the Christmas weekend, covering the episodes shown between the 23rd and the 26th December (Episodes #10829 - 10834). Corrie may have played it a bit safe this Christmas - there certainly weren't any major exits, shocking twists or, dare we say it, cars driving over cliffs into the sea in Weatherfield this year - but the...

Christmas is nearly here, and along with it comes our somewhat erratic recording schedule, so this week's podcast just covers the episodes of Corrie shown between the 19th and the 21st December (Episodes #10825 - 10828). After making his mysterious debut during last Friday's trip to Weatherfield, Jacob's father Damon is fully revealed this week, and with him comes a surprising revelation about Jac...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown in the UK between the 12th and the 16th December (Episodes #10819 - 10824). We may have been pretty vocal about our dislike of the Summer storyline in recent weeks, but credit where credit's due, we actually found it to be the most exciting it's ever been this week thanks to the double whammy of Billy finding out about Summer's baby...

On our latest episode of the podcast, we have a good old natter about what went on in Weatherfield between the 7th and the 9th December (Episodes #10813 - 10818). This week's Corrie saw Maria and Alya take on Griff, who's left with a bit of a bruised ego and a bloodied nose to match. With Griff now threatening to knock his campaign against the Muslim community of Weatherfield up a notch, has the t...

For someone who's often thought of being a bit of a fuddy duddy, Ken Barlow has actually managed to attract the attentions of a remarkable number of women during his time on the Street! In this week's podcast, we take a look at all the ladies who've turned Ken's head and taken him to bed, from the more obvious ones such as Deirdre and first wife Val to some quite surprising characters including a...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 28th and the 30th November (Episodes #10807 - 10812). Not the best week for us this week, unfortunately - it did feel somewhat like the storylines were either filler or spinning their wheels, and we're not just talking about Stephen's motorbike after that crash on Wednesday's episode! Of course, we did get a nice bit of...

Ten years ago today, we ran a character profile on Fiz Stape on Episode #16 of the podcast. Well, it's been an explosive ten years for our little Fizbomb since, and in this week's bonus podcast, we take a look at how her story has progressed in the past decade, including her relationships with Tyrone and Phill, her struggle keeping Hope under control and the shock of coming face to face with John...

Thanks to the World Cup messing with the telly schedules, this week's Coronation Street has all been uploaded to the ITV Hub early! We've binged all the episodes, and in this edition of the podcast, we chat about what'll be going down in Weatherfield between the 23rd and the the 27th November (Episodes #10801 - 10806). This week, Hope takes hero worshipping of her serial killer dad to the next lev...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 14th and the 18th November 2022 (Episodes #10795 - 10800) - well... we do as soon as we finish reeling from the news that Millie Gibson is going to be playing The Doctor's new companion in the new series of Doctor Who, anyway! Once we finally get onto the topic of the latest goings on in Weatherfield...

In this week's bonus podcast, we tackle two more questions from our inquisitive listeners. First up, we ponder what Corrie SHOULD do, what they should STOP doing, and what they should NEVER do - take note, Iain Macleod! (Of course, our lack of knowledge of anything when it comes to soap budgets and filming schedules means that many of our ideas are probably a little on the ambitious side, but that...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 7th and the 11th November (Episodes #10789 - 10794). This week, Fiz and Ty do their best to stop the John Stape book getting published, but when Tyrone slaps the author at an event at Chariot Square, has he ended up making things worse? Also this week, Amy and Summer fly the nest, Bernie thinks she's found a way to trac...

For this week's bonus podcast, we chat about the character of Linda Baldwin, the notorious man-eater who certainly gave husband Mike a run for his money in the late 90s and early 00s. Linda's most famous for the controversial story that saw her pursuing the ageing factory boss whilst also bedding his young son Mark, but as we also discuss in the episode, actress Jacqueline Chadwick hit the headlin...

Episode #547 of Conversation Street is here, and this week, we chat about what went on in Weatherfield between the 31st October and the 4th November (Episodes #10783 - 10788). The Halloween festivities in the first of this week's visits to the cobbles definitely helped lend an autumnal air to Coronation Street, but if you think that means the end of Summer, you'd be sadly mistaken - at least where...

Daisy Midgley has been minxing it up on the Street for nearly two years now, causing friction between Jenny and Johnny and being the catalyst behind the break up of Ryan and Alya, before finally setting her sights on Daniel Osbourne. Here, actress Charlotte Jordan joins us to chat about what it's like to play a character whose main purpose at one time seemed to be to rub both viewers and fellow St...

On out latest podcast, we chat about all things Corrie between the 24th and the 28th October (Episodes #10777 - 10782). This week, Stephen continues to bumble from one disaster to another, desperately trying to cover his tracks after binning off Leo last month. At least with Gabrielle now heading back home (and surely we weren't the only ones surprised that she's made it out of this alive?), his n...

Turn out the lights and lock the doors, for we have a fearsome tale for you this week, dear listener - a tale of misery, mystery... and murder. Although some may say that all residents of Coronation Street have suffered in some form or another during their time on the cobbles, it is perhaps those who dwell under the roof of Number 6 whose lives have been most cursed. Is it just a coincidence, or a...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown in the UK between the 17th and the 21st October in the UK (Episodes #10771 - 10776) This week's Street Talk starts off with something a bit different as we discuss a scene we saw filmed back in August starring Dee-Dee and the Platts that never ended up being broadcast. How's THAT for behind the scenes goss? After that, we return to...

He was the first Bailey to make an appearance on the cobbles back in 2019, and now, just over three years later, he's become the first to leave. His time on the Street has seen him involved in stories that got viewers thinking about racism and homophobia, but was James ever anything more than just an 'issues' character?  Decide for yourself as we run down all his most memorable moments in this cha...

On our latest podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 10th and the 14th October (Episodes #10765 - 10770) We've been speculating for months now about who framed Stu for Charlie's murder, and this week, we finally got to hear the full truth from Bridget, when she confesses to being the one who sent her to meet her maker. Or IS that the full story? We're still not so sure......
