On our latest podcast, we have a chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown between the 12th and the 16th January (Episodes #11,773 - 11,776).
It's been the theory on everyone's lips for a few months now, but this week, it was finally revealed that Debbie is indeed Carl's mother and not his sister, as we had previously believed. Will this be a secret she takes to her grave, or is it only a matter of time before it all comes out - and does it change how we think of her and Bill Webster having lied about Carl's parentage all these years? Not only that, but does it really mean she should be taking the rap for him when it comes to Billy's death (especially when we know that John Sugden and Theo are much more to blame than either Debbie or Carl!)? Also this week, Daniel gets a shock when he thinks that he's about to become a dad again, Jodie gets her feet well under the table at Number 8, and we say bye bye to Becky, who's sentenced to twelve years in prison - but there are still more than a few questions we want answers to with this story!
Up next on the podcast it's The Kabin, where we get more than a little excited about the news that Sally Ann Matthews will be taking over a role in the Steps musical next week, starting in our home town of Southampton (tickets booked!) and we round off the podcast with more of your thoughts on Todd, Maggie and Corriedale in the feedback section.

After making a biblical-scale exit in this month's explosive Corriedale crossover, Dan Brocklebank joins us for a chat to reflect on his eleven years playing the Street's resident reverend, Billy Mayhew. Dan talks about finding out that he'd be meeting his maker in the crossover, shares what it was like to film Billy's exit scenes, reflects on the impact of Paul's MND story and gives us a look at some of the souvenirs he's kept from his time on Corrie.
Also this week, to celebrate last week’s Corriedale crossover, we teamed up with Dingle All The Way, a podcast dedicated to all things Emmerdale, to share our reactions to one of the biggest soap events of 2026. With neither side knowing a great deal about the other’s serial drama of choice, how did we find watching characters we know and love rubbing shoulders with faces we only had minimal awareness of? Could we follow what was going on, and were we able to help each other untangle any moments that left us scratching our heads? We had a brilliant time chatting with Simon and Lizzie, swapping perspectives on Coronation Street and Emmerdale, and we hope you’ll enjoy listening to this special podcast crossover as much as we enjoyed recording it.
