Conversation Street Podcast Episode #569


On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Corrie shown in the UK between the 27th and the 31st March 2023 (Episodes #10912 - 10917).

Christina wasn't wrong when she said that wedding was cursed, was she? In a twist that frankly makes Mavis and Derek's double jilting look like nothing more than a minor hiccup, Justin returned to the cobbles on Monday night, intent on dousing Daisy in acid - but it's poor Ryan that ends up with a faceful of the stuff. Superb performances all round and a brilliant script from Ian Kershaw certainly made Monday's harrowing trip to Weatherfield one we won't be forgetting in a hurry! And to be honest, a lot of the rest of the week was similarly bleak too, especially the Amy storyline, as she opens up about the rape to her family and the police - who, in typical Weatherfield fashion, are able to do very little to keep Aaron of the streets. Meanwhile, Brian finds out he's 8% Italian (and 92% Buffoon?), Michael inadvertently throws a spanner in the works for Stephen at the factory, and Beth has another meet up with Marco - can she resist his charms? 

Kabin time next, and now that the acid attack has taken place, we're finally able to cover Princess Anne's trip to Corrie on behalf of The Acid Survivors Trust International, along with the news that we're obviously thrilled about that Helen Flanagan is to return to our screens in the next series of I'm A Celeb! We round off the show with some of your first reactions to this week's drama - plus a bit of a deep dive into regional variations of Chinny Reckon! - in the feedback section.

In this week's bonus episode, we take a look at the Rovers Return, and how the nation's most iconic pub has changed over the years. From the wobbly wooden frontage of the 60s to the double upstairs windowed modern incarnation, the Rovers has come a long way in the past 60 years, inside and out. The bar, the back room, the cellar… even the toilets! With the YouTube version featuring around 200 shots of the Rovers tracking its evolution over the years, we take a look at them all!
