RONNIE’S GESTURE BACKFIRES At the wedding fayre Leanne bitches about the position of the Speed Daal pitch. Debbie tries to ignore her. Meanwhile as Maria heads out to set up, Lou steals a bottle of prosecco promising she’ll be with her once she’s finished Tracy’s hair. When Lou fails to turn up, Maria's not happy. As Leanne bangs on about the poor position of the Speed Daal stand, Debbie who’s already floundering after losing her clipboard, loses her temper and tries to shift the stand herself, cutting her hand in the process. Ronnie insists on taking her to A&E. When a nurse tells Debbie she needs to ask some questions about her medical history, she masks her panic, ordering a dejected Ronnie to leave.

MICK TAKES DRASTIC ACTION TO TOUGHEN LIAM UP Mick takes a swig of his tea and spits it out. Liam laughs, having laced it with washing powder, pleased to have got his own back. Determined to make Liam pay, Mick locks him in the tool shed, where a frightened Liam calls out in vain.

Conversation Street Podcast Episode #679

On our latest podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 5th and the 9th May 2025 (Episodes #11,561 - 11,566)

A jolly May Day trip to the park takes a heartbreaking turn for Eileen this week when Julie sadly passes away. Though we've been critical in the past of Corrie bringing back this character just to kill her off, we have to admit that it's been an absolute joy seeing her on our screens again - however briefly. Pretty much everything surrounding the aftermath of her death gets a big thumbs down from us, though, from Brian jumping to the wild conclusion that Eileen bumped her off to George's farcical embalming fiasco on Friday. Also this week, Jenny bids farewell to the Rovers (an even greater tragedy than Julie's death as far as we're concerned!), an intriguing past is teased between Mick and Kit, and James returns to the UK to collect Laila - but is Dee-Dee ready to let her go?

Next up, it's The Kabin, and we chat about how Paul's MND storyline has inspired one Corrie fan to take on an incredible challenge to raise money for charity over in Australia. We finish things off with more of your listener feedback.

In this week's bonus episode, we’re diving deep into the life and legacy of Daisy Midgeley – one of Weatherfield’s most chaotic, captivating, and controversial residents. From flirty newcomer to fierce pub co-owner, acid attack survivor and serial schemer, Daisy’s storylines have kept us gripped for four and a half fabulous years. We chart her journey from 2020 to her dramatic 2025 exit, exploring the trauma that shaped her, her tangled love life, social media missteps, and whether she leaves behind a legacy to rival soap sirens of the past.
