Corrie 2026 (continued).

I agree BlueBelle. Even their voices are alike.

I said weeks ago on the thread, when Daniel became involved with Megan, I hope we’re not going to have a pregnancy and who’s the daddy story. I think it looks like we’re now heading in that direction tonight 🙄

Anyone else feel that Jodi and Shona really look alike
First time I saw Jodi before I knew who she was I thought gosh that girl looks like Shona

DrWatson you’ve just revealed to us all that you’re an avid watcher of Corrie 😆

Welcome to the thread . You shouldn’t have waited so long to comment. Don’t be shy. We’re all friends here. Glad you’re enjoying the programme so much.

Apologies if my wording came across as insensitive.

I didn’t mean it to, but realise it didn’t come out as intended.

Is it worth reminding folk on here that THIS IS the world where you can get a job after a 30 second chat in a pub, people change partners at a similar frequency to some who change knickers or underpants, and a whole long line of businesses have survived for ages with 3 customers a week? Etc . . .(to put that a little more plainly, if you actually watch this pap, there's little hope for you??)

🙏

I’ve not watched for years, has Ken Barlow died yet?

I just want to say that I'm happy that all episodes are available on the day, from early morning. I quite enjoy watching the soaps during the daytime and then other shows in the evening. (And yes, I do record them and could watch anytime the next day or whenever, but I enjoy watching on the day.)

Betsy is 18, they just treat her as if she is 12.

I think Lisa knew that the mortgage was paid off, but didn’t query much about where the money came from, or how their holidays etc had been funded.

I suppose the dastardly Becky pretended she had an inheritance, or a win on the premium bonds or lottery.

I still want to know, who exactly was Betsy’s birth mother, was it Lisa or Becky?

Property might be good value in Weather field. Two police officers, one a sergeant could probably pay off a mortgage. Obviously depends on the house and price. Betsy is 16 or 17 I think so they might have bought it 20 years ago.

I think I'm overthinking this.

What a palaver!

.

From Google.....

Sperm doner.
Lisa's egg.
Becky carrying.
Thus Becky is considered to be the biological mother
.

Apparently Becky gave birth to Betsy, but Lisa provided the egg, and used a sperm donor, so I guess Lisa is the biological mother.

Yes

On another note - do we all feel pretty certain that Debbie is actually Carl's birth-mother?

"I always felt that Becky gave birth to Betsy, as before the latest dramas, Lisa seemed the more distant mum, she seemed to come across as the ‘spare’ one, not having given birth,"

Sorry if I come across as over-sensitive here but I really don't like the notion that the mother who didn't actually give birth is a 'spare' one. I think my daughter and her wife would also find the idea quite offensive.

Thank you re birth mother details.

I always felt that Becky gave birth to Betsy, as before the latest dramas, Lisa seemed the more distant mum, she seemed to come across as the ‘spare’ one, not having given birth, (if that makes sense).

Betsy seemed to view the missing Becky with more affection also.

Bukkie I am certain Becky said that fairly recently.

I think it was mentioned a while ago that Becky gave birth to Betsy but I am not 100% sure.

I always record and whizz past the adverts. I now remember Debbie and Ronnie vying with Carla and Lisa to buy Yasmeen's house. I love Debbie and most of her clothes but that flat decor would give me headaches.

If you don't like the half hour try recording and then watch the two/three shows together. I always record to watch later and then pass over the boring bits and the ads

But tonight’s football 🙄again

Oh, I prefer the half hour episodes.

Bukkie. Carla and Lisa bought their house together, it was Yasmeen’s, she sold it when she moved to London.

I'm finding half hour is too short. It's just getting going then it's over.

I agree. Maybe it's just getting used to the 30 minutes again, but with the ad break it's more like 25 minutes, and it's not long enough.

Calendargirl. Thank you for the new thread, I knew we needed one but didn't know where to start. Yes things move into a different timezone in soap world. Carl and Carla fully recovered, Noddy aka Becky in jail, same day visiting orders. Where is Carla living? Why doesn't she kick Lisa out? Lisa only moved in with Carla temporarily when she had a flood at her last house.
