Conversation Street Podcast Episode 448


On our special 60th anniversary edition of the podcast, we chat about the goings on on the cobbles between the 7th and the 11th December (Episodes #10187 - 10192)

The diggers are revving their engines this week as Ray orders the demolition of the brewery, but when a plucky Abi commandeers one of the machines and plunges the street into blackness, the stage is set for one of Corrie's darkest weeks in a good while. From Imran's impassioned speech in court to the rooftop drama with Geoff and the surprise twist at the end of Friday's episode that will no doubt keep everyone guessing until the end of the year and beyond, there's a lot of ground to cover in this week's Street Talk, but the big question is, did it live up to all the hype?

In The Kabin, we share our thoughts on some of Corrie's special programmes that have been put out to mark the anniversary both on and offline, including Monday's 60 Unforgettable Years documentary and of course, the very welcome return of Corrie Good News. 

Finally, we round off the show with a selection of listener comments about how the anniversary week went down.

For our bonus podcast this week, we're thrilled to be joined by Street legend Sally Dynevor, who talks to us about her highlights from her 35 years on the show playing Sally. We find out what it was like to work alongside Jean Alexander in those early years, learn what she really thinks about playing such a snobbish character, and pick her brains about what it is that she thinks has kept the ex-mayor of Weatherfield so fresh for all these years. What a treat for Corrie's 60th anniversary week!
