On our latest podcast, we chat about the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 20th and the 24th July (Episodes #10,090 - 10,092).
This was the week we'd been looking forward to for quite a while - Friday in particular, which was the first episode to be fully filmed since lockdown, and therefore make reference to coronavirus. We start the Street Talk segment of the podcast discussing how well we thought Corrie dealt with the pandemic in its scripts and overall production before delving into the Geoff and Yasmeen story, which saw some major developments this week thanks to the introduction of one of Geoff's exes, as well as a heart attack for poor Yas and a rare Corrie dream sequence. On top of that, we've got Adam accusing Gary of killing Rick (was anyone else surprised by how quickly he was able to jump to that correct conclusion?), a tragic but incredibly creepy twist in the Daniel story, and some great Emma moments as part of Seb's story with Abi - an all-round top quality week, we thought!
Up next on the podcast it's The Kabin, where we talk about this week's Corrie special on classic villains - and explain why on earth we got a mention in the ending credits! - then we finish off with more of your fabulous feedback.

For this week's bonus episode, we're excited to be joined by Shelley King, who's at the centre of one of Corrie's most engrossing storylines at the moment. Magic, marriage and murder most fowl... Yasmeen's certainly been through a lot in the past year, and in this exclusive interview, we discover what it's been like bringing the issue of coercive control to our screens.
