Corrie 2026 (continued).

Yes, I’d rather have two hour-long episodes than five half-hour ones. I’d prefer them to go back to 7.30 though.

It was so good watching an hour's episode for a change. I do wish we could revert.

Sarah is looking very shifty, I wonder if she killed Theo?

At least Summer is out and about again.

Poor Sam but so glad that he is now receiving help at last.
There are so many threads on the go now!!

Yes, it was very well done. I don't know how you cope when a loved one goes through something like that.

That made me cry, poor Sam

Well, Sarah has homicidal form, doesn't she? And she was married to Todd (or was she? They lived together and had a baby, anyway, who died soon after birth), and she was with Gary for a while, too, so it would fit that she'd be protective of Todd, and that Gary would be protective of her.

They's be hopeless in MI5 though. All that eye contact and raised eyebrows would raise the suspicions of enemy agents in short order. All they ned is newspapers with holes cut out to look through.

I’m beginning to wonder if Sarah killed Theo and Gary is helping her cover it up.

I can't stand Carl and this Idris character is up to no good. Where does he work and live?

At least we have an hour's viewing tonight so with luck we will make more sense of it.

I have no idea what Gary and Sarah are hiding. I thought they were having a secret affair but now I am not so sure.

I agree, everything is dragged out too long we lose the will to live when we do discover the perpetrator.

Very true!

To be quite honest by the time they reveal the killer none of us will care.

It was the school that rang Social Services, Devorgilla. As for the rest of it - the phone in the skip, Summer’s brooch, Jodie’s agenda, Sarah and Gary’s sneaking around, etc - I’m clueless, wandering in the wood with you, just hoping for a few plot lines to end some time soon. I’ve gone right off Todd, yapping and snapping at all and sundry. I wouldn’t mind now if he was revealed as the killer.

I feel I need to watch the week Theo got killed again. Maybe Gary saw who killed him - Sarah/Todd? - and took charge of the situation to cover up.
So, if I heard correctly, according to Daniel, the Social Worker informed Social Services. I thought she came after he had been reported. Or did he say the School? Losing the plot. Feel the writers need to do a bit of a tidy up so we can see the wood from the trees. Start with Jodie and Megan.

Didn’t Theo chuck the phone in the skip?

I'm lost.
What are Gary and Sarah in cahoots about, and how and why did Todd's phone end up in the skip?

Oh no! I really didn't want it to be Gary

I don’t like the portrayal of Roy as an evil influencer. I think it’s worse than the horrible Theo scenario. Don’t like it at all. Hope this disappears very soon and joins other ridiculous story lines. What the hell has happened to the Corrie I have enjoyed for over 60 years? Roy has been the most consistently decent and likeable person in the series for a long time.No the writers have to muck him up in the most
cringeworthy way. I know it’s all in Sam’s head but that’s no excuse.

I feel exactly the same. This storyline is beyond awful.

It's interesting to show early psychotic episodes experienced by young teenagers but I don't think this is a good way to show it. One can tell when a person is listening or responding to an auditory or visual hallucination without having to see or hear what they are responding to. Could they not have shown Sam just apparently talking to himself but with the script he says demonstrating what's going on?

Exactly MaggieMay and Lovetopaint I don’t think they ve got this Roy/Sam business right at all

I agree with you, Lovetopaint. Surely we can be allowed one honourable and decent adult character and one relatively untroubled teen. Besides which, it’s highly unlikely that Sam and evil Roy could carry out their frequent conversations, at school, in the caff, on the street, without anyone around them noticing anything untoward!

No need to apologise BlueBelle. I just don’t want you to be sitting down at 8pm and turn on your tv to find a football game 😄

Sorry Granny I read NanaK s post above without seeing the date it was posted, I apologise

Hi BlueBelle, I’ve just read your post about this evening. I’ve double checked the ITV website and they’re still saying it’s not on tonight. It says it’s Women’s European Qualifiers match. I checked the guide on my tv box and it says football and no Corrie.

I don’t like that bit of Corrie I don’t think it’s that well done at all, even in his psychosis Sam wouldn’t hear Roy talking like that to him, imo.
So there is an episode tonight although on Grannynannywannys post it’s says ‘Not on Tuesday’

I hope Gary killed Theo I ve never liked him very much and he’s up to something and he’s certainly capable but it’s a bit too obvious I suppose

I bet the actor playing Roy is really enjoying playing an evil character for a change!
