Conversation Street Episode 643

On this week's podcast, we cover the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 26th and the 30th August (Episodes #11,347 - 11,352).

You might have seen from our social media that we had another trip to Manchester last weekend, and although we sadly weren't able to see Barbara Knox at Pride, we did take a trip to the Coronation Street Experience again, this time with some family members in tow. Before we kick off the Street Talk segment this week, we chat a bit about our time there, including a few small changes to the tour since our last visit, plus our Star Tour encounter with Antony Cotton. And yes, we were still able to keep the existence of the podcast a secret from our family while we were there too! 

Up next on the podcast, we move onto the meat of the show, this week's Street Talk. It had been long rumoured that Beth would be leaving Coronation Street this year, and this week she finally said her teary goodbyes to Weatherfield after being driven out of town by Kit. He wasn't the only shady villain roaming the Street this week either; in fact, Rowan and Joel were both up to no good too. However, whilst Rowan's starting to sweat after Amy CTRL-ALT-DELETEs out of her malware session, things are looking rosy for Joel as he's told the police are dropping the case against him. Speaking of the police, we got a new interior set for the station on Friday's episode - we thought it looked great, though we can't be the only ones concerned that Corrie's starting to feel more like The Bill every week...

Not a whole lot of big Corrie news this week, so we skip our trip to the Kabin, and round off the show with more of your lovely listener feedback.
