On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about what went on in Weatherfield between the 7th and the 11th April (Episodes #11,537 - 11,542)
This week, the Corrie storyline that’s had fans up in arms for the past five months finally kicked off in earnest, as Debbie was told she may have early onset dementia. And no, we’re not the least bit surprised that viewers are frustrated – we’re right there with you! With Corrie already overflowing with medical dramas in recent years, this latest development feels like one too many… not to mention the heartbreak of potentially having to say goodbye to one of the show’s brightest sparks. That said – how incredible was Sue Devaney in Wednesday’s episode? If there’s any silver lining to this storyline, it’s surely the promise of more powerhouse performances to come. But will that be enough to soften the blow? Only time will tell. Also this week, we meet Kevin’s shady half-brother Carl (and what an unpleasant first impression that was…), and Todd discovers that his new fella Theo is already married! Yep – a bit of a heavy one all round… Still, at least we had the joyful (and very noisy!) return of little Dorin to lift our spirits. He’s back, he’s babbling, and he’s making sure nobody gets a word in edgeways!
Up next, it's The Kabin, where we talk about Jack P Shepherd's first few days in the Big Brother house and take a look at the long-awaited Corrie cast photo, which was finally released to the public this week. Then, after some feedback from viewers about Dee-Dee's heartbreaking situation at the hospital last week, we finish off the show with a Kabin Extra segment, where we talk about some spoilers cast news that came out yesterday.

We've acquired quite a variety of Corrie related nicknacks during our time running Conversation Street, but Stan Ogden's headstone surely has to be the most unusual! After spotting a post about it turning up in someone's back garden a few weeks ago on Reddit, we made it our mission to retrieve this piece of telly history and save it from the skip. In this video, we take you with us on our trip to Liverpool and show you how we managed to put Stan's headstone back into the hands of Corrie fans!
