We also say bye bye to another little one on Friday as Faye decides to give Miley up to the Hodges.  Next up, we spend a bit of time looking back over the first six months of 2015 on the cobbles, before finishing off with some news and listener feedback.

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!

Speaking of which, Jason nearly catches Tony and Tracy in a compromising position on Monday's episodes, and Gail gets her hands on Callum's package, which turns out to be a bit less substantial than the one from Sally's fantasies... As there's little in the way of Corrie-related news at the moment, discussion in the Kabin turns to what, if anything, the show can learn from this week's Eastenders live anniversary episodes, then in the feedback section we hear some snowed-in Canadian listeners' thoughts on the latest Corrie happenings. The character profile segment is a catch-up on the Jenny Bradley story so far.
