New thread.

Sarnia I agree, Theo will "just be passing". I think that story will run for a few more months. I can't see Todd going free from more physical abuse, especially if he starts a relationship with Raymond. That will not please Theo.

I would like to add Maggie to my long list of one-way tickets.

Really looking forward to Megan’s comeuppance. Thought she was going to wriggle out of it with her ready planned scenario that Will had a crush on her and Sam had been filming her and she knew it.Thank goodness for Leanne and the sisters. Can’t wait for Maggie to explode.

I want someone to find the 'Baby Driscoll' babygro that Will bought for 'his' baby - why didn't Leanne find it when she was launching Megan's worldly goods from the window?!

Sarnia Fri 20-Mar-26 09:20:57

I was hoping Sam would tell Kit about the boy Megan was grooming pre-Will.
Ollie is right when he said the police can do remarkable things with retrieving 'lost' data. She won't wriggle out of this.
When Theo first appeared in Corrie I thought he was a dreadful actor but he is playing the part of a controlling bully very well. He won't have finished with Todd quite yet. I will be pleased to see him get what's coming to him too.

Charleygirl5 Fri 20-Mar-26 11:04:34

I agree, I was waiting for Sam to spill the beans. Surely she will get her comeuppance and not get on a bus with a suitcase.

How long is that bay living with Carla and Lisa? Is it self-caring when they are working as Betsy also is supposedly still employed.

I agree Theo is a better actor than we thought. Poor Todd gets no peace.

Calendargirl Fri 20-Mar-26 13:13:58

I don’t know why baby Connie has been written in, I have a feeling that Carla and Lisa will end up adopting her, for some reason. Probably the parents being in jail, and granny not being well enough to care for her.

Far too many children in the Street nowadays.

Haven’t seen Liam and Dylan lately, no loss though.

EllieAnne Fri 20-Mar-26 21:00:27

Poor Todd. Theo is evil.

Just what I was going to say! Maybe Leanne will come across it yet 😉

Well, Daniel’s eyes have been opened now.

If the ‘Baby Driscoll’ babygro is found, especially by Leanne, Megan will wriggle out of it, saying that the Driscolls have had it made to incriminate her.

I'm hoping it would show up in 'purchase history' somewhere.

I think that 'Ma Driscoll' is going to come into her own here and will get to the truth.

For goodness sake Adam pull out of representing her.

Poor Todd, he is going to 'beat himself up' about missing the Marathon.

Calendargirl Sat 21-Mar-26 09:42:46

If this were ‘real life’, and Megan had done nothing wrong, one would think she would be all for a DNA test to prove her innocence.

I am transfixed with her hair. One episode she has no fringe, the next she does.

Aveline Sat 21-Mar-26 10:01:58

She's pretty convincing. I'm surprised Sam has been completely believed. Of course Lianne will be a formidable support him! Good luck Adam in trying to defend his taking on Megan as a client

Charleygirl5 Sat 21-Mar-26 14:29:38

Calendargirl I agree. If in that position I would be trying to get to the top of the queue to prove my innocence.

I thought Megan would have been out the door, silly me, they will string it along until we are bored.

Poor Todd and he will not realise his drink had been spiked and will be blaming himself.

nanaK54 Mon 23-Mar-26 22:18:39

Oh Todd sad

Charleygirl5 Mon 23-Mar-26 22:46:23

Iodd is too weak to say no to that evil brute.

Allsorts Mon 23-Mar-26 22:57:19

I mute the tv now when Theo is on as I want to throttle him, also cannot believe Todd is having him back. How many physco's have they got in one street now? , it must be the water.

Exactly.

Does anyone have Eileen's phone number? She'd be on the next plane home if she knew what was going on.

Aveline Tue 24-Mar-26 05:17:01

That Mal is a pain in the neck.

BlueBelle Tue 24-Mar-26 06:00:39

Obviously none of you have ever been in an abusive relationship !!!
The Todd and Theo relationship is being portrayed very well Todd wants to believe Theo really loves him, he is fully invested in the relationship, he is not outside looking in like we are, hes totally caught like a fly in a spiders web
An abusive relationship is completely pull them in push them out it’s total control
The Megan stuff is far less realistic
As for Mel that’s very, very far fetched

Calendargirl Tue 24-Mar-26 06:26:39

I don’t know which was more 🤮.

Todd and Theo getting back together and snogging at the end, or Dev and Bernie over-sharing about what they got up to on holiday.

As for Mal……absolutely ugh.

Sounds like you and I have been where Todd is. Theo was never going to go and stay gone. It's all part of the control in both mind and body. I must admit to fast forwarding some scenes because they are too difficult to watch.
Female child groomers are rare but it happens and I have found this storyline well acted.
I agree with you about Mal. Seems like the scriptwriters were clutching at straws to include another controlling person on the cobbles.

Charleygirl5 Tue 24-Mar-26 08:44:54

One minute Mal is in hospital, barely conscious, the next he is in the Rovers shouting his mouth off. They must have miracle drugs there.

Don’t forget the one-woman GP who sees everybody the same day, plus house calls.

And the ambulance waiting around the corner for the next disaster.

Plus no corridor waits, straight into a private room, visits by the consultant, unrestricted visitors…..

Aveline Tue 24-Mar-26 10:40:40

Plus instant Police response and legal advice available in a convenient café or pub.

vegansrock Tue 24-Mar-26 13:14:44

And a local men and women’s prison…
