On our latest podcast, we chat about the aftermath of last week's Super Soap Week, covering what went on in Weatherfield between the 16th to the 18th October (Episodes #11085 - 11090).
With Stephen now zipped up in a body bag and the finger of blame pointing squarely at Peter, the question on everyone's lips is, 'Should he be punished for taking a murderer's life?' There's no denying that Stephen had dropped the bottle before Peter accelerated towards him, but that certainly doesn't mean it's a cut and dry case for Swain and co - and it's great how much it's got the fans talking too! Also this week, Daisy finally drops her drawers for Ryan - it seemed inevitable, but we're certainly not happy about it! Meanwhile, Ed resorts to desperate measures to get his hands on some cash, and Lee lurches off from Shuttleworth's after a slip of the tongue from George - alas, we hardly knew ye!
In the Kabin, we chat to a Corrie viewer who was at the fan event with Todd Boyce last week, and share our thoughts on the excellent Barbara Knox At 90 programme that aired last Friday. After a bumper feedback section where we hear some listeners' thoughts on the demise of Stephen Reid, we finish off the show with a spoiler Kabin Extra section, where we give our thoughts on some recent cast news.

Love him or hate him, Stephen Reid and his bumbling string of murders have certainly been the hottest topic on the lips of Corrie viewers for the past year or so, and now that his time on the show has finally come to an end, for this week's bonus podcast we take the opportunity to take a look back at his full story. From his early days as the suave businessman who caught Alma Baldwin's eye in the mid-90s to the killer Canuck of modern day Corrie, Stephen has certainly been on quite a journey - especially for a character who's been in fewer than 300 episodes in total! Were there any hints back in his early days that he could eventually turn to the dark side? Do we buy his excuse that he just wanted his mother's approval? What were our favourite Stephen moments from the past year - and what didn't work so well for us? We discuss all this and much, much more in our latest character profile!
