Why Won't You Watch: Corrie is a weekly podcast. Emily started watching Coronation Street because of the Corrie/Emmerdale crossover, stayed for Swarla, and quickly became obsessed. Vic doesn't watch Corrie... yet!
Listen each week, as Emily brings enthusiastic updates from Weatherfield and tries to catch up on 60+ years of backstory whilst trying to convert Vic, who remains stubbornly unconvinced!

A little note before we start: This episode was recorded a couple of weeks ago and has taken the scenic route to your podcast feed! After an unexpected break since mid-July, we’ve decided to extend our summer break a little longer — but we wanted to get this episode out to you before we disappear for a while. ❤️
This week on Why Won’t You Watch: Corrie?, things are a little different. Vic isn’t with us, so Legacy Lauren is stepping up to the mic as we catch up on what’s been happening on the cobbles.
And seeing as we’re heading into an extended summer break, we’re making this one a bit of a Series One send-off. We’re looking back at the Stats Report in numbers, handing out our Series One Corrie Awards, catching up on the stories we’ve missed and even taking a little look at some classic Corrie holiday chaos.
So consider this our slightly unexpected Series One finale — and definitely not the end of the Corrie Conversion Project.
Thank you for listening, laughing and coming along for the ride with us so far. We’ll see you back on the cobbles soon. ❤️

Episode 22 - 6th-10th July
This week on Why Won't You Watch: Corrie?, there may not be one headline-grabbing moment, but don't let that fool you - one chapter closes, several more begin, and the residents of Weatherfield continue making spectacularly questionable live choices.
Emily and Vic are back with the usual favourites, including the Stats report, Behind the Cobbles, the Corrie Awards, and of course, plenty of completely unqualified analysis.
As Emily continues her mission to learn 60 years of Corrie histoy whil simultaneously convincing Vic to start watching, the Corrie Conversion Project rolls on.
Whether you're a lifelong fan or just waiting to see if Vic finally cracks, join us for another trip to the cobbles.

Episode 21 - 30th - 3rd July
A quick heads up before you press play: Due to a few technical issues, the audio isn't quite up to our usual standards this week. Stick with us though - we promise it's worth it!
This week on Why Won't You Watch Corrie?, one major storyline reaches its conclusion just as another begins, proving there's never a quiet week in Weatherfield.
Emily and Vic are back with all the usual favourites, including Behind the Cobbles, the Stats Report, the Corrie Awards, and plenty of completely unqualified opinions as Emily continues her mission to move Vic another step up the Corrie Conversion Scale.
Whether you're a lifelong Corrie fan, Corrie-curious, or just wondering how one street manages to cram so much drama into a single week, pull up a chair and join us for another week on the cobbles.
