On our festive edition of the podcast, we have a good old chat about Christmas week in Weatherfield, covering the episodes of Corrie shown between the 22nd and the 26th December (Episodes #11,753 – 11,758).

Christmas time is here, and you know what? It just wouldn’t be the same without erratic broadcast schedules, cheesy opening music montages and a big old dollop of misery splatting down onto pretty much everyone unfortunate enough to live on Coronation Street. This year saw the showrunners putting most of their rotten eggs in the Driscolls’ basket, with a family meal for the Street’s newest residents turning pungent thanks to the mean-spirited machinations of manipulative Maggie. Meanwhile, Carla’s having a pretty rubbish Christmas too after being kidnapped by Becky, who takes the opportunity to seduce Lisa into bed in her partner’s absence – is it all over for Swarla? Also this week, Abi makes a shocking discovery about Carl and James, Sally gives Joanine and Shanice a Christmas Eve to remember and the Platts get a festive message from Gail.

Unsurprisingly, there’s not really been anything worth reporting on in terms of Corrie news this week, but we’ve still had plenty of feedback from listeners, so we round off the podcast with that.
