Have I missed something? Why is Coronation Street's Halloween focused episode airing 4 days early.

Adam and Alya are so dull and boring that I actually burst of laughing (not for the right reasons) at today's Corrie trying it's hardest to give Alya a personality by making jokes about telling the grandkids about Adam not wanting to pay the insurance excess on the ring.

On the whole I like the BBC but bloody hell why have they just put out an article about Owen coming back to Corrie nearly a week late. What is meant to be a leading global news and entertainment titan is 5 days late to tabloid journalism. The standards are on the floor 🤦‍♂️

Idk why Corrie decided to kill off Norris in the middle of social distancing, rewatching those scenes is so incredibly awkward beca everyone is just standing miles apart.

Just thinking about Gary being unjustly sent to prison whilst Sarah gets off scott free and then remembered he is responsible for the factory roof collapse and the 2019 Christmas shooting stuff, so maybe he does deserve some time in prison even if it's for the wrong thing.

I hope there will be overlap with Owen Armstrong and the stuff that's going on with Ross. They're both heavily masculine gruff older men and it would be interesting for Corrie to demonstrate the toxic masculinity that Ross is displaying by using Owen as a positive alternative

Yeah that sounds about right from the vauge thought idea I have of him in my head.

Well an Owen Armstrong return is not something I was ever expecting, nor do I have anything to say about him as a character, but what the hell, I'm down.

I am incredibly sad to see she has passed and yet I am relieved to know that she didn't die without notice, sincerely RIP to her.

Unfortunately it seems Eileen Mayers, who played Coronation Street's Sheila Birtles/Crossley has now passed away. Her name is listed in the latest Equity magazine and a corresponding obituary is found online in The Times stating her death as June 27th 2026, having died aged 94.

I am really enjoying it, but not loving it, which is how I'd describe the other series. I don't think the format has gone stale but we have seen this 5 times before and things are slightly more predictable and exciting as a result.

Interesting that the new ITVX Classic Corrie channel is showing episodes after the current ITV3 run, currently being streamed is a 2012 episode. It makes me wonder at what point ITV3 will stop. I always assumed they'd reset after the tram crash but now I'm second guessing myself.

Corey Brent jumpscare in the new Marvel Vision show.

Catching up on Classic Corrie and I am being very happily reminded how much I love Natasha Blakeman.

The fact that the S*n is reporting that Corrie's Megan and Theo are supposedly seeing each other irl. 😐

Trying to figure out when next week I go and see the UK soap adaptation of Silence of the Lambs.

🤣

Yeah... erm.... about that.... maybe not

Absolutely amazing even better than my, already through the roof, expectations, and for such a small venue too!!

Just got back from seeing Corrie's Jerry Morton as Mr. Mushnick and Eastenders' Tiffany Butcher as Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors.
