Preview of today's Coronation Street - Tuesday 27 January 2026


Tuesday 27th January

THEO’S HAUNTED BY HIS GNAWING CONSCIENCE With the arrangements well under way for Billy’s funeral Theo struggles with his guilt and seeks out the Bishop who suggests he is not to blame and should talk to God. Left by George to mind the undertakers for a moment, Theo approaches Billy’s coffin and tells him how sorry he is for leaving him to die. Hearing a door slam he is horrified to think he has been heard. Who was in the undertakers? 

SAM MAKES AN ENEMY OF MEGAN When Leanne invites Sam to join her later for tea at Speed Daal, Megan’s ears prick up. Sam arrives in Speed Daal for his tea only to find Megan already ensconced at the table. What is she up to? 

DEBBIE’S GESTURE BACKFIRES Debbie finds Todd in Victoria Garden and tells him that she’d like to donate £3k towards Billy’s funeral as it’s the least she can do. Seeing Todd upset Theo has a go at Debbie leading Carl to race over to protect Debbie.

ELSEWHERE Bernie calls at the shop and tells Summer that she has a plan for Paul’s ashes. Kevin calls at the Rovers to find Tyrone and Abi discussing the leak at the garage. Roy confides in Mary how he sent Alice some flowers and it would seem she’s forgiven him for the other day.

Preview of today's Coronation Street - Monday 26 January 2026


Monday 26th January

SAM UNCOVERS A GROOMER’S DIRTY SECRET Sam is suspicious when, in the cafe, Leanne shows Megan a boy’s tracksuit top she found in the flat and Megan claims it is Daniel’s. 

On the street, Sam corners Will and asks him if there’s something going on between Lee and Miss Walsh. Will makes out it’s a ridiculous notion and heads off. Sam spots the tracksuit top in Will’s sports bag, does he have the evidence he needs? In the Rovers, Will warns Megan how Sam suspects them of having an affair. Megan finds Sam doing his homework in Speed Daal. Will she tackle him? 

A DISCOVERY SENDS SUMMER INTO A TAILSPIN At the station, Kit returns Summer’s stolen rucksack to her. Summer looks inside and is amazed to find the bag containing Paul’s ashes is still there. In charge of the shop, with Dev at the wholesalers, an emotional Summer helps herself to the booze in the fridge. Calling in to get some sweets for his first meeting with Alice, Roy finds her drunk behind the counter. Will Roy get to his date? 

JODIE AND CARL HIT IT OFF Abi calls at No.8 and warns Jodie that Carl is bad news and she’d be best to steer well clear.  Shona agrees and explains that Carl did the dirty on Abi with a bloke from down the road. Carl calls in the cafe and turns on the charm with Jodie. How will she react?

ELSEWHERE When Maggie lets slip how Leanne offered to buy her out of the Rovers using the money from her share of Speed Daal, Alya’s seething.

Episode Review Friday 23 January 2026


Good evening (or as appropriate).  Will has his big race today.  However there is bad news - Megan will not be there to watch him and later he finds a rival from Hull, Lee (Oscar Aldersley), is also participating and Lee always beats him - which happens again today.  It quickly transpires that Lee has also participated in the Megan Walsh Grooming Training programme and like Will enjoyed the additional benefits which Megan provides to her charges as he tells Will later at the bus stop after Megan has told Lee that she is now with another teacher at the school and he must stop pestering her.  Lee can see that Megan was just using him now, Lee insists to Will that he is not lying about it.  However Sam overheard their loud exchange concerning Miss Walsh and her morals from where he was just inside the kebab shop.  He looks concerned by what he has just heard.  


All is not well at the Metcalfe residence with Tim earlier consuming a sausage butty at Roy's rolls rather than Sally's muesli and similar rabbit food after his shift ended.  Jodie tells him Sal sounds a right nag and he needs to grow a pair.  Nina is having a mare - flying solo and no stock.  Jodie volunteers to take over whilst Nina gets some stock as it cannot be that difficult to make a few cups of coffee and she has a lot of experience.  Within minutes she cannot open the till, although it magically works for Carl who pays for Leanne's coffee and then the smell indicates that his cheese toastie is over cooked.  Carl and Jodie have a discussion and she soon guesses that he is the bad boy in town which is quickly confirmed when Abi comes in.  Later Jodie and Carl resume their conversation in the Rovers.  They leave together with a promise to see each other later.  Carl also tells Abi that she should be scared of him.  


Carla is working from home and is not planning to get dressed and Sarah is running the factory today.  Betsy is off to the shops as she explains that whilst she is glad to see them back together she feels she needs a pair of noise cancelling earphones given the paper thin walls in these modern houses.  This is demonstrated when we hear Sally remonstrating with Tim over his bacon butty.  Lisa takes a glass to listen more closely.  As Betsy goes she lets Sally in with some misdelivered post.  Carla makes the mistake of asking if Sally is alright and before they know it Sally is delivering a complete list of all the things every husband does but Tim does to the nth degree because all wives have to remind them of that at very frequent intervals, usually three to five times a day on a good day and every few minutes on an average day.  Carla is not happy that her plans have been disrupted.  After the initial few minutes of Tim's Carla excuses herself and calls Tim.  Lisa opens a bottle of wine.  Carla tells Tim that Sal is upset, she needs to be collected and Tim needs to bring flowers which he soon does and all is well again.  Lisa and Carla are contemplating ascending the stairs when Betsy returns.  

As a reminder on Thursday Jodie told Shona a complete cock and bull story ripped off from a fellow group attendee about controlling partners.  Shona swallowed it wholesale and so has decided to find out why by tracking down her (Shona's) dad.  David thinks it is a bad idea.  Shona is going to start with the pub where her father used to drink.  Shona wants answers and if she does see him she does not want Jodie to know.  


Summer is having a difficult time.  Nina made her go to the pub but Carl came in and Summer blames the Webster family for the loss of Billy when we all know that Harrison Theo is to blame (he is away trying to make his marriage work in Ambridge as his wife thought he had bottled someone).  Summer insists that Nina leave her on her own.  She keeps phoning Bill's phone to listen to the voicemail  Billy had left her asking her to call him back - a message from Weatherfield's answer to Richard Chamberlain which he admits is before anyone's time (Thorn Birds 1983).  She cries as she plays it repeatedly.  

Best Line of the Night:
Eva has decided she needs some new shoes from the new shoe shop - after all it is not like she has a lot of shoes like Imelda Staunton is it?  Ben thinks she might have confused Imelda Staunton and Imelda Marcos.  

For some reason (with modern technology who actually knows why) ITVX had no subtitles tonight.  So this episode was brought to you courtesy of YouTube to whom I offer my thanks.  I know that ITV has always made Coronation Street as half hour blocks but for some years has played them out as hourly programmes.  I think I prefer them being shown as half hour episodes as there is less to digest and the hooks to make you watch the next segment (as there is only one rather than three) feel less intrusive.  I still wish the pace would slow, add more humour and characterisation.  We had a little of that tonight with Tim's allegedly to provide the comedy - after all calling Sally Karen was hardly nice was it?  

Written by John Kerr.  Directed by Matt Hilton.

There were one or two Hilton touches tonight - a shot in a locker room and I gather the closing shot was slightly special - but I am not a technical expert.
