Conversation Street Podcast Episode #731


In this week's podcast, we chat about what went on in Corrie between the 4th and the 8th May (Episodes #11,849 - 11,853).

The murder victim has finally revealed, and we can finally all stop speculating about who's going to croak - and move on to who actually dunnit. Corrie's already revealed their suspect lineup, and this week, we get to see how they act in the immediate aftermath of Theo's body being found. In the case of George, Todd and Christina, we can all agree that they very likely had nothing to do with it, and although there's definitely still something Gary's keeping quiet about, we can't imagine it was him either. There's also the question that none of the other characters are asking yet (since they don't know she was there) - what went down between Summer and Theo in the moments before he was bashed on the bonce, and why hasn't she told anyone she was in the flat with him? Despite all this, our prime suspect is still Miles - or at a push, his mum Danielle. Let's see how the coming weeks unfold and maybe our minds will be changed, eh?

Just a tiny Kabin segment this week as we get very excited about the news that Julie Hesmondhalgh will be taking part in the next series of Celebrity Traitors, and we round off the show by hearing about more of your thoughts and theories on Murder Week in the feedback section.

For this week’s bonus episode, we’re launching a brand new series where we take an in-depth look at the residents of a single home on the Street, sharing our thoughts on how they’re faring in the show right now. First up, we’re heading to the Rovers Return to talk all things Driscoll - Corrie’s newest family, who’ve been at the centre of the action since arriving last October. From Maggie’s secret connection to Jim McDonald to Will’s grooming storyline and Ben’s possible heart condition, they’ve certainly not been short of drama. Now that they’ve been around for six months, it feels like the perfect time to sit down and have a proper natter about how they’re settling in.
