Hope you've got a lengthy car journey or a massive pile of washing up to do, because we think we've made our longest podcast yet! In this episode, we discuss the goings on in Weatherfield between the 1st and the 5th of January. Don't you just hate it when, after spending four years on the sidelines, you're finally given something meaty to do and then you get roasted in a fiery explosion? Luke, we feel your pain - you might need some E45 cream for those burns... Elsewhere on the Street, Weatherfield's most miserable couple get dolled up for their stag and hen nights, whilst Roy has to make a big decision about just how far he's willing to go for his friendship with Carla. After Street Talk, we launch what we hope will become a proud celebratory institution, sitting alongside the likes of the Golden Raspberries: Who was the worst new character of 2017? Which storyline stretched credulity to breaking point? Who was the mardiest mare and the dirtiest dog? All these questions and more will be answered in the first ever Joni Awards! In the Kabin, we take a deep look at the fake Derek Griffiths scandal that's been gaining a lot of momentum this week, and finally, we discuss, among other hot topics, the potenial recasting of Todd in the feedback section.
