Conversation Street Episode 257

On our latest podcast, we delve into the episodes of Coronation Street broadcast between the 29th May and the 2nd June. What with it being the annual 9pm Britain’s Got Talent week, we were seriously hyped up about this set of episodes before it started, and although it didn’t quite meet our lofty expectations, there were still a lot of things to like. Chief among these, we felt, was Rob Mallard’s electifying performance as Daniel, who this week sinks further into madness after revealing himself to be the Barlow Basher. Elsewhere on the Street, the penny finally drops for Shona that Bethany’s Nathan is indeed *that* Nathan, but can she and David rescue her in time? Meanwhile, Nick’s got that sinking feeling during a trip to the beach, and it’s Bonne Anna-versaire to Ms Windass. On Tuesday, we also got to see the return of Daniel’s mum Denise Osbourne, so as a quick catch up for the uninitiated, we thought we’d better do a character profile on her this week. This is followed by The Kabin and the sad news of Roy Barraclough’s recent death, and the episode ends with a some listener feedback, with emails focusing on a variety of topics including bank holidays, calming British accents, and, yes – even some Corrie!
