For this week’s bonus podcast, we’re bidding a fond farewell to one of our all-time favourite Corrie characters with a two-and-a-half-hour Jenny-fest! As we’d already wrapped up her story quite neatly in the character profile episode we released at the start of 2025, we decided to follow the same format we used for last year’s Gail departure and put together an A–Z of all things Jenny. We chat about our favourite moments, reminisce over stories Sally Ann Matthews has shared with us over the years, and revisit Jenny’s many romantic adventures - the highs, the lows, and the endlessly memeable moments that make her a character we’ll never forget.

On our 700th episode of the podcast, we share our thoughts on what went on in Corrie between the  29th September and the 3rd October (Episodes #11,681 - 11,686).

She’s been a firm favourite of the podcast since her 2014 return, but this week we bid a fond farewell to Jenny, who jetted off from Weatherfield to start a new life in Tenerife. We’d known her exit was coming for a while - but was it a send-off worthy of a character of Jenny’s calibre, or did it leave us wanting more? Also this week, Todd, Theo and co hit Manchester’s Gay Village in some brilliantly directed scenes that exposed a secret from Theo’s past - and revealed just how dark he can be. Meanwhile, Debbie discovers the truth about her brother’s affair, Bethany makes her return to Weatherfield after yet another career disaster, and Asha considers quitting her paramedic course.

Up next on the podcast it's The Kabin, where we celebrate Corrie's recent success at the Inside Soap Awards, and we round off the podcast with more of your fabulous feedback.

After ten years back on the cobbles, our Jenny bade a fond farewell to Weatherfield today, and in the week of our 700th episode of the podcast, we have an exclusive chat with actress Sally Ann Matthews about her decision to leave and what it was like to film those final moments. Sally Ann shares some behind the scenes secrets about some material that was filmed but never made it to air, reminisces about her favourite moments from the past decade and gives an idea about where we might be seeing her on our screens next...

On our latest podcast, we have a natter about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 19th and the 26th September 2025 (Episodes #11,673 - 11,680).

It’s a bumper Street Talk this week as we dive into four hours of Corrie drama! Things kick off with the Carl and Abi affair, which steps up a gear when Kevin finds himself unceremoniously dumped by his cheating wife. Could the big reveal – and maybe even the end of this saga (please?!) – finally be on the horizon? Elsewhere, in a twist nobody saw coming, Noah suddenly drops dead – but were there suspicious circumstances, and might this tragedy push Theo back into Danielle’s arms? Meanwhile, Asha remembers she had a big episode last month that perhaps deserves a follow-up, Becky makes a play to needle her way back into Betsy’s life, and Ollie causes intrigue by showing an unexpected interest in Toyah on Friday. Now what on earth could that be about?

Up next on the show it's The Kabin, where we take a look at the Corrie nominations in both the Inside Soap and TV Times shortlists, and we round off the podcast with more listener feedback.

Last week, we had the chance to see not one, but two performances of An Audience With Coronation Street, the Corrie stage show hosted by Soap Queen Sharon Marshall. In this episode of the podcast, we share our thoughts on the show, chat about meeting some of the cast and even take you on a trip to a few of the filming locations we visited whilst up in Manchester - including a sneak preview of the Street at Christmas!

We're going to be away and jolly busy in Manchester this weekend for the Audience with Coronation Street show at the Lowry, so this week's podcast is coming at you early, covering the episodes that were shown on the 14th and the 16th September (Episodes #11,669 - 11,672).

After the shocking revelation that Becky Swain was in fact alive last week, this week's Corrie had a lot to live up to. Would enough questions about the past four years be suitably answered? What would Lisa say to Costello? Would Lisa really be able to see her estranged wife from reconnecting with her daughter! It turned out that the pair of us had quite opposing views about how well Corrie's handled this, and the discussion takes up the lion's share of Street Talk. Elsewhere on the cobbles, Tyrone's told it may be years until he's up on his feet again (so.. skipping around in the snow this Christmas?) Theo and Todd move into their new place, and the twists keep on coming as it's revealed just who was driving the car at breakneck speed through the precinct last Monday...

Up next on the podcast, we're joined by Corrie fan Carianne, who attended the Fan Fusion convention last weekend at which Vicky Myers appeared as a special guest. We get the low down of what happened at the event, what Vicky was like, and chat together about the prospect of other Corrie related conventions in the future. As always, we round off the podcast with more of your fabulous feedback.

Last week’s Coronation Street sent shockwaves through the Corrie community with the surprise return from the dead of Becky Swain. The director behind those unforgettable episodes, Jordan Hogg, joined us for a chat this week about bringing those scenes - plus a handful of other classic Corrie moments from the past decade - to life. Whether you're a fan of Swarla, were on the edge of your seat during Mason's death or have a fondness for the dark era of Pat Phelan, there's plenty for you here to enjoy.

On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown between the 8th and the 12th September 2025 (Episodes #11,665 - 11,668).

There may have only been two trips to Weatherfield this week, but Monday's bombshell was enough to keep us talking for just as long as a regular podcast! Becky Swain is alive! A lot of us had seen it coming, but it was certainly a shock that it happened quite so soon. You may have already heard our initial reactions on the podcast we released earlier this week, so how did we feel about Becky's explanation for where she'd been all this time? Did it hold water, and is she really telling the whole truth? Away from all the Swarla drama, we also had another couple of shockers in the form of Tyrone being hit by a car and Shona revealing she had a bun in the oven. THIS is how you keep twists under wraps until broadcast, Corrie - keep it up!

After the Street Talk segment, we head over to The Kabin, where we talk about Corrie at the NTAs and Vicky Myers having to pull out of the upcoming Audience With in Glasgow, and we round things off with some of your immediate Becky bombshell reactions in the feedback section.

Street Talk - 00:12:23

Well that was a bit of a twist on Monday's episode, wasn't it? We've speculated about it for a while, but as an end of show cliffhanger, it was revealed to us that Lisa's supposedly dead wife is actually alive and well! We couldn't wait until Friday to talk about our reaction to this bombshell, so in this special bonus episode, we talk about our initial thoughts on the reveal, ponder what on earth Becky could have been up to, and, in the second half of the podcast, take a look at the press release that gives us a few teasers about what we might find out about Becky's motives for returning to Weatherfield...

Recently, we had the pleasure of chatting with Corrie actor Adam Hussain about his five years playing Aadi Alahan. Adam talks about his decision to leave the show and reflects on some of his characters most memorable moments, including taking a bullet for Kelly Neelan, being involved in an epic car crash and his affair with Courtney Vance!
