Conversation Street Episode 159
On the latest podcast, we share our thoughts on the episodes of Coronation Street shown in the UK between the 20th and the 24th July. This week, the Rodwell Rift grows ever wider when Michael decides to take things to the next level with Eileen. That could be the least of Gail's problems before long, though, if Callum's latest plan involving Bethany comes to fruition. Meanwhile, Leanne finds herself in a spot of bother when she gets caught up in one of Corrie's least convincing hostage situations, and speaking of unconvincing, pop star turned actress Sarah Harding makes a cameo as Robert's wife Joni this week - and like many viewers, we weren't too impressed! In the Kabin section of the podcast, we do a bit of shameless self-promotion and talk about the new range of Conversation Street merchandise, and we hear from a new listener in the feedback section. Our character profile this week is on Audrey Roberts. Why not give it a listen, hmm?

And will Simon manage to complete his computer game before the funeral on Monday??

Conversation Street Episode 147
On the latest podcast, we break down the episodes of Coronation Street broadcast between the 27th April and the 1st May. Well, maybe it's more like 'shoot down', as neither of us were too impressed with this week's offerings - from the dynamic duo of dullness, Alya and Izzy, teaming up to design a new knicker line, to Corrie cougar Erica announcing that she is with cub, to the near ruination of Jenny, one of our favourite recent characters, Corrie has certainly seen better weeks, but hopefully you enjoy our commentary nonetheless!

On this week's early edition of the podcast, we cover the episodes of Coronation Street broadcast between the 6th and the 8th April in the UK.

Meanwhile, Bethany continues to cause trouble for the Platt household - can a visit from Sarah-Louise set her straight? In the Kabin, we talk about the removal of the Sexiest Soap Actor categories from the British Soap Awards (sadly not to be replaced by the Sexiest Soap Podcasters) and in the feedback section, some of our listeners chip in on the great Sarah / Sarah-Louise / Sarah-Lou debate.
