New thread.

How can a backstreet lawyer with a tiny grubby office afford an Aston Martin? His fees must be astronomical!

Charleygirl5 Wed 11-Mar-26 23:07:35

Unfortunately we definitely haven't seen the end of Theo. I only hope Todd doesn't "lose it" and severely injure him as to me he has been the innocent party all along.

Soon the prisons for men and women will be full of Corrie characters. Megan should end up there as well as Theo. I don't know what Jodie has done, but she may be on the waiting list eventually.

And now Theo is dropping poisonous gossip about George.

Why are Gary and Maria so pally with him all of a sudden?

At long last, we are finally finding out that Maggie and Jim have had a fling in the past (social media has been saying it for ages). So a knock on effect for relationships and health issues.

Have asked before, is Megan still pregnant? Surely she would be showing by now?

Yes, the Megan story is getting even more improbable. And why doesn't Sam just tell his dad or Leanne what's going on?

This is the week that Megan gets what's coming to her. Can't wait!

Good, good and good - what a horrible storyline this has been.

I thought for one awful minute that Todd was going to ask Theo if they could start again. He must have forgotten the physical, never mind the mental abuse.

Allsorts Mon 16-Mar-26 22:35:30

I cannot bear to hear Theo's voice. When I listen to. him in the Archers he makes my skin creep. Hope he goes out of Corrie soon and beginning to wonder if anyone in it is sane now. Megan needs to go asap as Sam cannot stand much more, neither can I. We need more light hearted stories as too much food and gloom.

So did I, after he told George and Glenda that he missed him. I’m pleased he contained himself, for now, anyway.

Charleygirl5 Tue 17-Mar-26 00:51:36

Doodledog how could anybody miss that creep? I have a nasty feeling Todd is not out of the firing line of fists and nastiness yet.

Most of the stories don't ring true. This Megan one for starters. I wish she would take Theo with her when she goes, soon, I hope.

BlueBelle Tue 17-Mar-26 07:22:40

I actually like the drama of today as opposed to the comical situations of yesteryears
Can’t wait for Megan to go, I understand why they have highlighted it, but it’s unrealistic, although Will is a tall boy he doesn’t look more than 15 and Megan doesn’t come across as a teacher, so I think they are miscast
She’s horrible and needs to hook up with Carl and both disappear into the sunset
I have a feeling Theo will go out with a bang not sure what though
Charleygirl I think the Theo/Todd story is very true to life and well acted by both
Megan and Will and Sam not so well done at all

Calendargirl Tue 17-Mar-26 09:37:56

If only Todd spoke to someone about how Theo has treated him.

If only Sam told someone about how Megan has been treating him.

It’s good to talk.

On a lighter note, how many times do we see Christina dusting and polishing the same bit of desk/table in the undertaker’s?

Usually wearing an apron.

There have been instances of teachers grooming pupils. Thankfully, not that many but it happens. Comeuppance on the horizon for Megan, I think. I shall enjoy that.

I can believe the Todd/Theo story. People do get 'bewitched' by abusers, and find themselves unable to pull away. Todd has done well to get this far, but the problem is that if Theo promises to make things the way they were when they were happy together, Todd might relent. I really want Theo to be exposed for the bullying abuser he is.

It does look as though Leanne has seen through Megan. I hope so, as she's a monster. I'm really warming to Sam. He was such an odd child and I found him difficult to like, but he's morphed into a slightly awkward but pleasant teenager. It's horrible to see him bullied by Megan, and I wish he would confide in Leanne (and not Toyah!).

I know people have different 'tastes', but what a grown woman gets out of a sexual relationship with a young teen is beyond me. She is risking her career, her liberty and more for the 'thrill' of sex with a boy. How old is he? About 14?

Aveline Tue 17-Mar-26 10:34:17

I agree re Christina constantly cleaning at the undertakers. It must be absolutely filthy or at least covered in George's biscuits crumbs. He's a nice character. I'd go to Shuttleworths when the time comes.

Will is 16 Doodledog.

They supposedly didn’t have sex until his birthday.

I think he’s about that age in real life, and when you think about it, they have never been seen having sex or really intimate.

The producers probably have to be careful about filming younger actors in compromising scenes.

Calendargirl Tue 17-Mar-26 21:00:19

Yeees!!!!!

Megan’s numbers up, hopefully.

They did share a hotel room though.😉

I so hope Meghan gets arrested. I was so pleased the sisters did not believe her.

I am confused though about whether she is or is not pregnant.

Slimey Theo tonight. 🤮🤮

Doodledog Tue 17-Mar-26 21:36:35

It was a good episode tonight. I hope all the baddies go to a faraway jail and we can have some happy stories for a while.

Calendargirl Wed 18-Mar-26 06:54:10

Theo was awful, wasn’t he?

You can’t believe Todd is regretting finishing with him, has he forgotten how dreadful Theo was most of the time?

And Mal is back, oh no! Pretty obvious he knows perfectly well it was Kit who attacked him.

Trouble ahead.

In that scenario there won’t be many of the cast left!

Aveline Wed 18-Mar-26 07:57:52

We need the sad/bad stories. If it was all cheery fun we'd be complaining. However, I found the scenes when Theo was abusing Todd so painful to watch that I had to fast forward them.

Charleygirl5 Wed 18-Mar-26 08:47:49

The filming will be from jails soon and not Coronation Street!

Such a pity George is otherwise engaged with his failing business to take much notice of Theo. That creep will not leave him alone

Doodledog Wed 18-Mar-26 09:01:28

I’m’m not suggesting there should be only happy stories forever - just that we get a break from the misery for a while 😀

Sarnia Wed 18-Mar-26 22:24:38

Megan and Will have clearly been rehearsing their story. Sam knows that she was grooming students when she lived in Hull. A boy from the running club there came to Weatherfield to compete in a race and wasn't best pleased to see how close Will and Megan were. Surely the police will interview him. What about the baby? She can't know who the father is, I wouldn't have thought. I hope she doesn't wheedle out of it and I suppose Theo will just accidentally call into the Bistro while passing at the exact time Todd and Raymond are meeting. Hope his just desserts are dished up very soon.
