Street Talk: Coronation Street 18th - 21st June 2024

A real mixed bag of a week, we thought, with Wednesday's trip to Weatherfield definitely being the highlight thanks to its cosy, heartwarming scenes like movie night at No. 5 and what we're hoping is the beginning of a redemption arc for Cassie as she she bonds with Ken following his fall. Either side of that episode, though, there was one that made us angry (Toyah and Nick... No!!) and anther whose main story of Kevin and Stefan going head to head just didn't make that big of an impression on us. Still, at least we got a random reappearance of Sabrina, who looks set to be involved in dastardly Joel's plot in some way...

I havent listened to this yet, im commenting based off of the thumbnail. With that being said, WHY IS TOYAH AND NICK LOOKING AT EACHOTHER LOVINGLY?! 😮😮 I stopped watching current corrie in 2017 but recently was gifted the ability to watch the show from 1976 to present... Im now in 2004 and Leanne and Nick have the history...what happened omg This show is wild

The way the poor are portrayed.....Everyone seems to have loads of money for drinks, dinners out, clothes etc....the Winter-Browns not so much. I do remember when Jack and Vera took little Tommy in and couldn't afford food..Vera shoplifted. Another time when Sally and Kevin broke up, Sally asked Dev for Credit to get some beans on toast for the girls and he said no...that was poor. The idea of poverty has changed...Gemma for instance could go to the charity shop and get some shoes...do they have to be 45 pounds?? I don't understand why Toyah isn't working in her chosen field or at least at a job that pays her a living...what happened to the factory gig?

I really would have preferred Toyah /Nick to be an emotional only affair. They attempted it with Tim/Aggie but it just didn't hit exactly right and was played for comedy. To go from nothing to SEX with your sister in law / sister's long term boyfriend. Morally, it's massively outside what a lot of people would be capable of doing. I would have preferred the slowest journey, hand hold, hugs and then when they realise they can't do anything (after WEEKS by the way, not days) they have a teary goodbye and Leanne never finds out. If you've seen Fleabag, it was so powerful because the characters tell eachother what they feel with WORDS not bonking. Forbidden love is one of the most popular tropes in fiction. But maybe they did just intend for it to be a one night stand mistake and they aren't going to actually fall in love.
