Conversation Street Podcast Episode #733


On the latest episode of Conversation Street, we chat about all the Corrie drama between the 18th and the 22nd May 2026 (Episodes #11,859 - 11,864).

This week's Corrie had a major focus on Summer, who'd been doing a pretty good job of flying under the radar since the wedding episode despite viewers knowing that she was one of the last people to see him alive. Thanks to a few pieces of compelling evidence, the police haul her in for questioning this week and by the end of Friday's episode she's being charged with murder - but just why is Tyrone keeping quiet about her evidence, and what exactly is Christina still hiding? Also this week, Jodie continues to play her manipulative game with Daniel, Maggie begins to worm her way back into the Rovers and Roy's Rolls has its not so grand reopening.

Up next, it's The Kabin, and we check out who has - and possibly more importantly this year! - has not been nominated for an NTA, and we round off the show with more of your listener feedback.

The Kabin: 02:26:02
Feedback: 02:40:59


This week’s bonus podcast is a listener question segment, where we mull over two more topics suggested by our lovely ducklings. First off, Lese wants to know about the characters we’ve done a bit of a U-turn on over the years. Is there anyone we used to love but have gone cold on over the years? What about characters we’ve grown to love? Turns out there are plenty! After that, we tackle a questions from Rebecca, who wants to know if there are any children from Corrie’s past who we’d like to see return as an adult. What would they be like, and what would be the reason to bring them back? We reckon we get a couple of good ideas together here! As always, we’d love to know your thoughts on these topics, so let us know in the comments!
