On our latest podcast, we dissect the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 12th and the 16th November. If you hadn’t realised before that Sally Carman is a major asset to Corrie as Abi, surely this week has been enough to convince you, as the desperate mother fell off the wagon after deciding the twins were better off without her. Ending her week behind bars, though, we can only hope she’ll get to share some scenes with the former mayor of Weatherfield in the coming months! Also this week, Audrey and Claudia lock horns at the Stylist Awards, Simon turns seaman and – call the Nobel Prize people! – Sinead finds the cure for cancer. After Street Talk, we’re joined by Sandra Huggett for an interview about her time on Corrie playing DS MacKinnon. We find out what it was like for her to join Corrie as a guest cast member, and learn all about the back story she’s created for MacKinnon, which we think goes a long way to making her become one of the show’s most memorable recurring coppers. In The Kabin, we find out why Helen Flanagan’s come under fire from the mums of Instagram this week, then after a bit of listener feedback, we finish off the show with a bit of exciting spoilery news about a rumoured returning character.
