Returning from Tenerife, Nick calls at the bistro and is ushered into the office from Leanne who explains there’s a problem with the accounts. Going over the figures and discovering a series of payments made to TLH Holdings, he calls the bank to freeze their account. When Toyah arrives for work, excited that Nick is back, her excitement turns to shock when Kit arrests her on suspicion of theft and fraud by abuse of trust. Toyah assures Nick that she’s never stolen a penny from the bistro, someone has set her up and she reckons that someone is Leanne. Will Nick believe Toyah? 

Dee-Dee asks Alya to report back to her about Lauren’s plea hearing and attends her appointment with the genetic counsellor who talks her through the tests she’ll have to establish if her baby is a suitable donor for Frankie. Lauren’s solicitor warns her that by pleading not guilty, the case will go to trial and the prosecution will rake over her unsavoury past. Max visits Lauren and warns her that if she pleads guilty for a lesser sentence, Frankie will grow up thinking his Mum killed his Dad when it’s not true. What will Lauren do? 

Lisa confronts Betsy after finding a picture of Mason, taken in Betsy’s room, on social media. When Lisa calls in the factory, Carla announces to the factory workers that she and Lisa are now an item but when Betsy makes a sarcastic remark, Lisa’s mortified. Carla invites Betsy to join her and Lisa at the bistro for dinner and suggests they all start afresh but when Betsy shows up with Mason, how will Lisa react? 

At No.8, Jesse tells David that he’s managed to launder the last of the cash. When Gail wonders what they’re talking about, Jesse panics and makes out that he was telling David how he’s booked them a honeymoon in the Maldives. Unable to bite her tongue any longer, Audrey tells Gail that if she marries Jesse, she’ll never see her again. How will Gail react? 

As Kit and Daisy sit down to dinner in Speed Daal, it’s clear there’s something between them, but the mood is broken when Daniel and Bethany arrive at the next table. Will both couples get along?

Conversation Street Podcast Episode #659


On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 16th and the 20th December (Episodes #11,441 - 11,446).

It may be the season of goodwill an' all, but sorry, we just can't bring ourselves to feel all that charitable about the Lauren story this week, which reared its head again with a fresh batch of misery for the terminally tragic teen. This time, Frankie's being diagnosed with aplastic anaemia - will Dee-Dee step in to help, even if it means keeping her own unwanted baby? Also this week, the word's slowly starting to get out that Daisy was the one who caused Shona's injury last week - though that's nothing compared to the hot gossip that Sally picks up on Friday when she sees Carla and Lisa kissing on the cobbles! Meanwhile, preparations for Gail and Jesse's wedding are in full force, though is Audrey right about her making a massive mistake?

Up next, it's The Kabin, and we chat about Lorna Laidlaw's recent appearance on another podcast talking about her time on Corrie, and we round off the show with some more of your feedback.

The doctor confirms Frankie’s diagnosis and that they’ll start the process of looking for a donor. Will this make Dee-Dee’s choice even more difficult to make? 

When Kirk plugs in the Christmas lights and causes a power failure, Carla tells the factory workers to take the afternoon off. After being kicked out of the Rovers for bringing their own alcohol, Bobby invites Kirk and Fiz back to the flat to carry on drinking, but Lisa emerges in her dressing gown. Is Carla and Lisa’s relationship finally revealed? 

Gail tells Shona and Sarah that she’s arranged a pre-wedding pampering session at the salon for all of them and they’ll need to take the morning off. In the salon, Audrey serves up glasses of fizz whilst making scathing remarks about Gail’s choice of sixth husband. When Jesse reveals that he’s tracked down the original wedding rings to a shop, is the game up for David? 

As Daniel jogs past Redbank Apartments, he clocks Kit kissing a female visitor. When Daniel reveals that he saw Kit kissing a woman as he let her out of his flat first thing this morning, how will Daisy react? 

A worried Toyah confides in Leanne and Amy that she’s hardly any money left in her account and she’s up to her limit on her credit card. Leanne tells Toyah and Amy that it would appear the wine company has overcharged them and Amy agrees to check the accounts. In the bistro office, Leanne transfers £300 from the bistro account to Toyah’s fake account.
