On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 17th and the 21st July (Episodes #11007 - 11012).

This week was the very definition of a mixed bag! We're big fans of Spider and Toyah and have missed their lack of presence on the show for most of the year, but when the powers that be decide to include them, this is what we get? A farcical, zero tension hostage scene followed by Spider choosing the force over his fiancée? We'd say words fail us, but we certainly managed to get a good discussion out of it in the podcast! Then on the other side of the coin, you've got the Stephen storyline - now we're not going to say that's not farcical either, but we were on the edge of our seats with that plot this week! Who knew that Elaine actually had a backbone, and what on earth is Stephen going to do now? Also this week, Paul is apprehensive about his MND support group visit, Aadi attracts the attentions of his new boss' wife, and Brian finally gets rid of Isabella.

Up next on the podcast it's The Kabin, where our cockles are warmed by the news of a Barbara Knox and Thelma Barlow reunion at Tatton Park this week, then we finish off the show with more of your feedback.
