Preview of today's Coronation Street - Monday 10 August 2026


Monday 10th August 2026

SARAH STRUGGLES IN PRISON In the prison, a tough looking inmate shoots Sarah daggers.  Sarah’s unnerved. Bethany visits Sarah and is horrified to see her badly bruised face but Sarah plays it down.

TIM ROLLS OUT THE WELCOME MAT Richie reads a text from his wife, Rachel, and tells Tim he’s in the dog house for staying out all night. When Sally arrives home, Tim claims he had a low-key evening of board games with the lads. Richie soon calls back, clutching a holdall and explaining Rachel has thrown him out. Tim sheepishly introduces his cousin to Sally and confesses they got drunk and he stayed the night, forcing Sally to agree to let Richie crash there for a little longer.

DYLAN LOSES HIS COOL Ollie runs some new menu ideas by Alya but it’s clear she’s not keen and he’s left deflated. When Dylan asks if he can work his shift in the kitchen, Alya refuses and tells him she needs him out front. Over lunch, Ronnie opens up about his struggles with Debbie to Ed, Michael and James. When Dylan takes their order, Ronnie’s short with him and Dylan takes it personally. Alya is forced to intervene and Idris ushers an upset Dylan away. Idris reminds Alya that his offer still stands and he’d happily buy her share of the restaurant. 

ELSEWHERE When Abi calls in for a takeaway, Idris insists on paying for it.

Conversation Street Podcast Episode #744


On our latest podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 3rd and the 6th August 2026 (Episodes #11,914 - #11,917).

What’s that? You thought that just because there were only four episodes of Corrie this week, this would be a short podcast? Au contraire! With the stroke storyline taking centre stage once more and Dylan finding himself on the receiving end of an attack from Lauren, you’d better believe we’ve got plenty to say about where this story is heading! Has he really done enough to show he’s sorry for what he did to Betsy? Is Lisa’s unrestrained anger towards him justified? And will anyone actually listen to what Betsy wants? There’s an awful lot to unpick here! Not only that, but this week also saw Cassie’s mysterious disappearance from Weatherfield – is she dead, or has she simply been Andy Carvered? Elsewhere, we met Tim’s suddenly existing cousin, Kit issued Gary with an ultimatum and Debbie got to thinking about how she wants to go out when the time comes...

No news this week, but as always, there's plenty of feedback to pick through to round off the episode!

For our bonus podcast this week, we're joined by the fabulous Claire Sweeney, the actress behind Corrie's Cassie Plummer. We chat to Claire about her three years in the role, what it's like to be part of the clan at Number 9, which cast member makes her laugh the most, and her thoughts on the fan reaction to the controversial storyline where Cassie drugged national treasure Ken Barlow!
