Stateside Street Podcast

A fun reaction to the swarla wedding and the whodunnit. Bloopers at the end!

We had the pleasure of chatting with Marc Baylis! He has starred in over 200 episodes of Coronation Street as bad boy Rob Donovan. We talk craft, Rob's relationship with Carla, working with legends like Bill Roache and Anne Kirkbride, and his upcoming short film 'Through the Eyes of Bairns'.

Debbie is back home, but Carl is yet again asking for money. Ben's world is turned upside down when Maggie reveals a huge family secret. Sam’s mental health takes a pretty worrying turn, and Lisa gets divorced from Backhand Becky.    

This week started with a banger of an episode and ended with Maggie almost spilling a huge secret to Ben. Meanwhile, Theo pushes Todd further into isolation with plans for Belfast, while Megan continues to manipulate Will by twisting the truth about her supposed miscarriage.   

A short week because of football, but Corrie still delivered. Lots of coercion, it seems. This week, Theo surprises Todd with a wedding. Mal tries to force Bernie's hand. Sam is a bit paranoid. Swarla needs a babysitter. Share your thoughts below! Go to 04:22 to skip the announcements and start the recap. Social Media Instagram: StatesideStreetPodcast Twitter: StatesideStreet
