Conversation Street Episode 232

In this week’s episode of the podcast, we chat about the episodes shown in the UK between the 23rd and the 26th December. Christmas Day has arrived in Weatherfield, so let’s cross off the usual tropes: Festive punch up? Check! Family secrets revealed? Check! Present mix-up? Character behind bars? Obnoxious incidental music? Check, check and check! Corrie certainly didn’t go out of its way to do anything radically different this Christmas, but we didn’t care, because we absolutely loved the hour-long special this week, and despite the identy of Peter’s secret woman hardly being a shock, we were thrilled to see the return of Our Toyah to the cobbles. As well as that, we’ve had the arrival of Mary’s son, the beginning of Billy’s return to the Church, and some sinister and intriguing goings-on around Bethany. We’d like to thank all our listeners for tuning in in 2016, and wish you all a Happy New Year – we’ll be back early January with the Conversation Street Awards!
