In our latest podcast, we share our thoughts on what went on in Corrie between the 13th and the 17th May 2024 (Episodes #11,264 - 11,269).
There were a few nice little mysteries this week that keep us guessing, with the question of the identity of Nathan's attacker on Wednesday being the most intriguing - even if we didn't think Corrie quite stuck the landing once the mystery assailant was revealed. Bernie's search for her long-lost son also proved quite interesting, and with Christopher / Kit / Zodiac / Zac now working under the iron-fisted DS Swain, it looks like we may be seeing a whole lot more of him in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, the always entertaining Sally provided the laughs on Friday as she sucked up to Demi, the garage takes one step closer to coming out of the dark ages thanks to a new website and Leanne heads off on an Institute retreat - but just how brainwashed will she be on her return?
After a brief news section we delve into the mailbag with some of your feedback, including one listener's ponderings on modern Corrie lacking main characters like Les Battersby with clearly bigoted views - and how he thought the Max story should have ended differently.

For this week's bonus podcast, we chat about the Crusher himself, Duggie Ferguson. Despite coming into the show as the intolerant father of salon stylist Tom and spending pretty much all his time on the show trying to get one over his business rivals by fair means or (more usually) foul, we reckon Duggie's generally looked back on with fondness from those who watched Corrie back at the turn of the millennium, and in this episode, we try to figure out why. From his disastrous year at the helm of the Rovers to his demise at the hands of Richard Hillman, we cover all of Duggie's best bits here - enjoy!
