On our latest podcast, we chat about the goings on in Weatherfield between the 5th and the 9th May 2025 (Episodes #11,561 – 11,566)

A jolly May Day trip to the park takes a heartbreaking turn for Eileen this week when Julie sadly passes away. Though we’ve been critical in the past of Corrie bringing back this character just to kill her off, we have to admit that it’s been an absolute joy seeing her on our screens again – however briefly. Pretty much everything surrounding the aftermath of her death gets a big thumbs down from us, though, from Brian jumping to the wild conclusion that Eileen bumped her off to George’s farcical embalming fiasco on Friday. Also this week, Jenny bids farewell to  the Rovers (an even greater tragedy than Julie’s death as far as we’re concerned!), an intriguing past is teased between Mick and Kit, and James returns to the UK to collect Laila – but is Dee-Dee ready to let her go?

Next up, it’s The Kabin, and we chat about how Paul’s MND storyline has inspired one Corrie fan to take on an incredible challenge to raise money for charity over in Australia. We finish things off with more of your listener feedback.
