On our latest podcast, we share our thoughts on the episodes of Coronation Street broadcast in the UK between the 22nd and the 26th July. This week, Gemma gets a shock when her mum turns up at the Rovers - though that's nothing compared to the surprise that awaits Chesney the next morning after Bernie's stayed over for the night! Meanwhile, the gig's up for Steve and Tim when Tracy and Liz catch them horsing around in the Frescho car park, and Gary continues his quest to become Weatherfield's most dastardly villain ever by turning his hand to... second-hand furniture sales..? After Street Talk, we do a character profile of Chesney Brown, someone who we spent all of six minutes profiling way back in Episode 2 of the podcast. Taking a look at what he's been up to in the intervening seven years, we see whether Corrie has satisfied our request to 'do something fun with Chesney', or whether it's time he was sent to join Schmeichel on that farm in the countryside. With little in the way of news to talk about this week, we pass by The Kabin and head straight to the feedback section, where, among other things, we hear from some of our listeners about whch Corrie characters they'd like to be stuck on a desert island with.
