Conversation Street Podcast Episode #496


With the Weatherfield week ending on Wednesday this week, we're coming at you a little earlier with our latest podcast, which covers the goings on in Coronation Street between the 8th and the 10th November (Episodes #10476 - 10481). Not only that, but with Michael testing positive for COVID on Tuesday night and subsequently isolating from Gemma, we've also had to be a bit creative with how we've watched Corrie and recorded the podcast this week, so apologies for the sound quality not being up to its usual standard!

That all aside, we actually quite enjoyed this week's Corrie - although with all the overlapping of stories going on (we're looking at YOU, Kelly, Aadi and Summer!) we admit we did find it was a bit of a tricky Street Talk segment to manage at times! As we predicted, the Street residents seem to have forgotten their environmental principles just as quickly as they developed them this week, with not a hint of the Red Red bypass story getting a mention; instead, the main action seemed to have revolved around Kelly's release from prison (ooh, controversial!), Summer's crush on an oblivious Daniel, and Natasha's funeral, which gave us some more fantastic scenes for Sam, who managed to get us right in the feels without even uttering a single word!

Up next on the podcast, we have the Kabin segment, where we chat about an exciting  Corrie fan event that's taking place next month - a bit too far for us to travel, sadly! - and some new details on the next Corrie novel by Maggie Sullivan. We finish off the show with more of your listener feedback.

Next up, it's this week's bonus podcast! If there's one thing that a lot of Corrie viewers can agree on, it's that the show could do with a bit of a good old fashioned soap cull at the moment. And how better to trim the fat than by pitting a bunch of our least favourite characters against each other in a series of brutally reimagined British playground games? 30 characters enter the arena, and only one will make it through alive - who'll be keeping George in business for many weeks to come, and which lucky contestant will be the sole survivor? Find out in Coronation Street: Squid Game!
