For this week’s bonus podcast, we return to the stories of those unfortunate Corrie residents who’ve found themselves behind bars for crimes they didn’t commit. Picking up where we left off last week, we revisit Gail’s imprisonment for the murder of her hapless husband, Yasmeen’s time on remand for trying to bump off Geoff and the time when Peter found himself sharing a cell with a certain hot-headed blast from the past… We also consider whether Coronation Street will ever be able to recreate the public frenzy sparked by Deirdre’s imprisonment: with that benchmark seemingly impossible to beat, which current character would stand the best chance of having fans metaphorically waving banners outside the studios demanding their release? And, perhaps more importantly, whose wrongful imprisonment story could still feel fresh and compelling in 2026? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
