Episode 284 of the podcast has arrived! Thanks to some technical issues, we had to switch things up this week and push Street Talk to the middle of the episode, leaving the opening hour to discuss the nominations for the Conversation Street Awards 2017. There were some tough decisions to make this year, but we're sure you'll find someone that floats your boat in each category, so if you haven't voted yet, head on over to our blog or check out our social media channels to find out how! When Street Talk does finally arrive, we check out the episodes of Corrie between the 4th and the 8th December, where the main focus was on the 'shock' death of Gary Windass - of course, thanks to tabloid spoilers, we knew he was very much alive even before the episodes aired, but it was at least a nice surprise for his return to land of the living to happen so quickly. Also this week, Roy dresses up as Pelznickel, Norris dons his Batman costume for his new wife (nothing kinky, we promise!), and Pat plays postman when Luke tells him he's still receiving letters for Andy. Up next in the podcast, we run down Corrie's Christmas fortnight schedule - set those VCRs, everyone! - and we discuss Rosie's possible role in Pat's downfall in the feedback section.
