Todd's uncertainty around Theo and his moods is very realistic.

Yes! The actor who plays Todd is doing a great job of looking very scared of Theo now. His poor little face last night! 😢

Absolutely
Great writing and great acting - not often that we say that about Corrie nowadays grin

It is very well done. The actor playing Todd is very good, but Theo less so. I'm finding the abusive relationship more believable than I did the Yasmeen/Geoff one.

I thought Todd's eye looked bruised.
Ryan looked as though he was wearing his Mum's old blouse. I couldn't take my eyes off it!

Charleygirl5 Tue 23-Sept-25 13:55:13

Now and then, we get a good night of excellent acting. I wish Theo would take a one-way ticket anywhere but please leave Todd alive.

I can't stand Carl and I certainly do not trust him.

Maggiemaybe Tue 23-Sept-25 14:15:47

Yes, Carl is truly awful, and so is Abi now imho, not only for the cheating and not caring at all about the thought of leaving Jack, but for going along with all horrible Carl’s schemes. And I too wish Theo and his whole horrible family would disappear.

Then seeing as people rarely leave the street to find a new partner, perhaps Todd and James…?

I wish Abi and Carl would dissappear he's such a nasty character and she is pathetic hanging around him like a teenager

And Kevin hardly ever questioning why she is dressed up all the time and never at home.

We've done the Coronation Street tour too. It was great. Even my husband enjoyed it and he hates Coronation Street. We rang a taxi and they were called Street Cars.

Aveline Tue 23-Sept-25 21:39:21

Was it Steve or Tim driving?

Sarnia Thu 25-Sept-25 17:22:12

By Carla's face, if looks could kill then Lisa, her ex and Betsy would be corpses on the kitchen floor.
I think Debbie is suspicious of Carl & Abi now. As he is living in her hotel it should be easy to catch them out.

So the speed dating began at five o clock. Very unlikely, with most people still at work. But they never film in the evening!

Bukkie Tue 30-Sept-25 11:03:55

Are we to assume there's going to be bad news about Rita? Or was Jenny laying it on to get sympathy from George?

Primrose53 Tue 30-Sept-25 11:54:16

It’s just not the Corrie I know and love any more.

Last night we see James zipping up his flies having just had sex with Carl in the hotel. It is just horrible.

Glad I missed that bit Primrose 😱

I wish I had! My niece who is obviously much younger than me and very broad minded says it is disgusting now, particularly all the sexual comments between Theo and Todd.

Dylis Tue 30-Sept-25 17:40:09

Yikes! Debbie and Ronnie's flat! I would need a lie down after 10 minutes in there. I know Debbie is flamboyant but...

Bukkie Tue 30-Sept-25 17:59:07

Dylis I couldn't get over the flat!! It looked like a..... well, I can't think of the words.

JenniferEccles Tue 30-Sept-25 23:55:27

It certainly was horrible Primrose53
Are these scenes really the best the scriptwriters can come up with?

Not that many years ago Coronation Street was family viewing.
Not any more.

Charleygirl5 Wed 01-Oct-25 08:25:37

There is too much bed hopping. I don't think it is necessary and neither are the sexual comments between Theo and Todd.

Sarnia Wed 01-Oct-25 08:40:41

For the umpteenth time, I wish we had the options of 'like' buttons etc.
I have to agree with recent posters that Corrie has far too many storylines centred around sex these days. Is the watershed still in existence for what's acceptable before a certain time?
The present scriptwriters are the worse we have ever had. I don't watch other soaps. Are they all sex mad these days?

Grannycool52 Wed 01-Oct-25 08:54:24

I've just read that Corrie has won the latest best soap award.
Despite its many current irritations, some old ingrained loyalty still has me rooting for Corrie 😂.

Aveline Wed 01-Oct-25 09:06:59

It's not family viewing as young people aren't interested in watching Corrie.
I think there are some interesting storylines and the balance is a little better. Some episodes are terrific. There are characters I don't like but that's just personal preference.

They need to wash their mouths out 🧴with it then after all the bed hopping 😂

Maggiemaybe Wed 01-Oct-25 14:52:52

grin Beechnut.

It is all getting very seedy, isn’t it? And just how many more times can Kevin nearly discover the truth about Abi and Carl? Put us all out of our misery, for goodness’ sake!
