I am loving this podcast. Did you know that the term for a gathering of Corrie fans is a ping? Does that make this a pingcast?

Roy’s caution to Cassie…he’s on to her and will not stand by to see her scuttle Abby and Kevin. I’m disappointed in Kevin that he isn’t more forgiving and trusting of Abby after how far she’s come. I wouldn’t blame her if she dumped him, after all, he is hitting way above his weight. I’m also thinking that Bethany and Damon might be in the cards way down the line…Daniel is too stuffy and self important to appeal to Sarah’s daughter in the long run.

Also stocking up on tissues for these next few weeks with Paul and Billy. Such great performances.

My condolences on the passing of your father. Looking forward to enjoying this podcast. Thank you!

Condolences on the loss of your father and father in law.

I am be alone here but I like Daisy. I’ve never been a Daniel fan and he can have Bethany. The 2 belong together and it should last for about 3 weeks. I wonder what Bethany is up to though, she had that cryptic phone call about a week ago. She’s definitely running away from something.

I literally LOLed when you talked about the quads babysitting Alfie 🤣 Mom and I have been talking about their absence as well.

I think Bethany is up to something…

Can’t trust Cassie, I want to but she’s off.

I've never been a fan of Bethany, and I like her even less now that she's back. She's up to something for sure.

I hope that now that Roy knows of Billy and Paul's plan, he will share his experience with Hayley and helping her with her decision. He can offer advice from a very personal standpoint.

My sympathy about your father and father-in-law... I'd read that earlier in your newsletter.

I love your opening tune - it's perfect! You covered a lot considering it was two weeks worth - I can't remember two weeks ago anyways!

You didn't mention Evelyn and her obsession with the possible puppy mill... tiring storyline to me although they certainly managed to cast an evil looking man to play the bad guy! Roy gave Cassie the "what for" regarding Abbi and I enjoyed that! Like you, I have also noticed the white teeth on former/recovering drug addicts and also that one of them also always has impeccable red nails... in spite of her day job. Kevin was a bit of a turd and spends too much time backtracking and apologizing.

I totally missed the episode where Bethany returned - it didn't record and I couldn't go back and find it! Weird. Stupid move on Daniel's part, I'd say, but I'm not writing the show!

Okay, maybe I'll go buy something so you guys can survive...

I loved that part with Roy as well, I mean who doesn't love Roy? He's looking out for Abbi and keeping that Cassie in line! I have also noticed those two looking quite "made up" lately, like what's with the flawless make up for a day in the garage? Unless Cassie is just trying hard to get Kev's attention. Really hope that doesn't work -although I wouldn't put it past him. FYI -if you miss an episode you can find it on CBC Gem!

Can’t take the Bethany character seriously, even on her first appearance she looked older than her mother. 2 years away makes her look even older. Bad casting (in my opinion). Agree about the Paul character he is doing a fantastic job of such a difficult role. Did not realize that the NHS did not provide an equivalent to MAID, at least they do offer a do not resuscitate option

So sorry about your dad, Brittlestar. My condolences.

Love your show.

I hope you have a live show on the horizon? I'm picturing a little gathering at a pub in Toronto - perhaps the Rebel House or something like that? Perhaps bring in a guest - Evelyn would be a hoot but David would be fun, too. So many to choose from.

Anyhoo.. keep up the great work!

A fan from Guelph.

When Bethany left, she was 17 years old. Now she’s early 20s. She’s back because she’s broke (noticr she was ordering orange juice at the Rovers at first.

I think she's been sent to do an expose on Steven.

That’s UK speculation. In our timeline, she’s already chatted at Roy’s with a Gazette reporter, clearly looking for work. The reporter said she should try ChitChat, the rag the fact’ry girls read.

Has that been seen in Canada? I don't remember a scene like that at all. Maybe I wasn't paying attention (I tend to do that when Bethany comes on the screen! lol).

Yes. I don’t watch the UK version. I do watch on Gem though, which has the uncut UK episodes, so it may have been a cut scene on CBC,

Thanks for getting back to me. It's entirely possible I wasn't paying attention. Wouldn't be the first time! 😆
