The moment Abi shuts Carl down in dramatic Coronation Street spoiler video
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Abi Webster (Sally Carman) tries to take control of a situation in Coronation Street soon as the chemistry between her and Carl (Jonathan Howard) continues. Carl and Abi first bumped into each other – quite literally – in the supermarket carpark, and the vibe between them was instant. Things became more complicated when they discovered that they were actually connected, with Carl's brother being Abi's husband, Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell). Though they have tried to keep their distance, it is clear there is still a spark between them. In this new video, we see the moment Abi attempts to push Carl away by saying that she wouldn't ever be interested in him. Carl admits that he can't get Abi out of his head and knows it's terrible to fancy his brother's partner, but he seemingly cannot make those feelings go away. Abi tells Carl to back off, but he seems adamant whatever they've got going on isn't going to end just yet. But is Carl right? What will happen next between him and Abi? More Trending 'She's been given this whole life with Kevin, the kids are secure, she's got a child now who's safe and she's all sorted. Her life is calm and loving, and that is something she's craved for', star Sally Carman said previously. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers? Who's leaving Coronation Street?

There's like an animal inside her and she's absolutely fighting this with everything she's got.' 'I'm reading it [the scripts] thinking poor Kevin but I'm also thinking poor Abi because she's really fighting it, telling him to go away and leave her alone but he's just pursuing her relentlessly,' Sally teased.

Science Fiction & Fantasy: Slipping Into a Series
If summer brings the sunny promise of more reading leisure time, what could be better than a whole series of books? I've picked out three in various stages of completion: choose your own level of commitment and where to jump in. In the comically cosmic adventure series that kicks off with Matt Dinniman's 'Dungeon Crawler Carl' (2020), the end of the world as we know it is the start of the story. The titular Carl, a disaffected Coast Guard veteran, is pet-sitting his ex-girlfriend's prizewinning show cat, Princess Donut, when the aliens come. They immediately kill most of humanity and then herd the survivors into a subterranean labyrinth of horrors that turns out to be a competitive reality show called 'Dungeon Crawler World,' enjoyed by viewers across the galaxy. The remaining humans have to destroy monsters, collect treasure, gain powers and move to the next floor of the dungeon before time runs out, or they die.

Dept. Q Season 2: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on May 30, 2025, 19:30 IST Last updated May 30, 2025, 13:49 IST 'Dept. Q,' Netflix's gripping British crime thriller, captivated audiences with its debut season on May 29, 2025. Adapted from Jussi Adler-Olsen's Danish crime novels, the series follows Detective Chief Inspector Carl Morck, played by Matthew Goode, as he leads a misfit team in solving Edinburgh's cold cases. With Season 1 leaving fans eager for more, speculation about a second season is buzzing. Here's everything we know so far about Dept. Q Season 2. Dept. Q Season 2 Release Date Speculation As of May 30, 2025, Netflix has not officially confirmed a second season for Dept. Q. However, the show's strong reception, compelling narrative, and the wealth of source material from Adler-Olsen's book series fuel optimism for a renewal. If renewed in 2025 and production begins in early 2026, Dept. Q Season 2 could premiere in late 2026 or early 2027, likely between September 2026 and March 2027. Dept. Q Season 2 Expected Cast While no official cast list exists for Season 2, the police procedural format suggests core characters will return, with new faces tied to fresh cases. Here's a look at the likely returning cast: Matthew Goode as DCI Carl Morck : The brilliant yet abrasive detective, haunted by a violent attack that killed a colleague and paralyzed his partner, is the heart of Dept. Q. Jamie Sives as DCI James Hardy : Carl's paralyzed former partner, now walking with crutches after physiotherapy, remains integral to the team's dynamic. Alexej Manvelov as Akram Salim : A Syrian cop turned civilian assistant, his journey toward a DI rank could deepen in Season 2. Leah Byrne as Rose : The cadet seeking to prove herself is a mainstay, bringing fresh energy to the cold case unit. Kelly Macdonald as Dr. Rachel Irving: The police therapist aiding Carl's trauma recovery is likely to return for emotional depth. Dept. Q Season 2 Potential Plot Season 1, based on Adler-Olsen's 'The Keeper of Lost Causes,' ended with Carl and his team rescuing prosecutor Merritt Lingard after four years of captivity, followed by a three-month time jump. The finale teased unresolved threads, setting the stage for Season 2. Here's what we anticipate: The Leith Park Shooting: The ambush that injured Carl, paralyzed Hardy, and killed a young officer remains unsolved. Season 2 may explore this, with DCI Bruce's incompetent investigation offering Carl a chance to dig deeper despite conflicts of interest. New Cold Case: Following the book series, Season 2 might adapt 'The Absent One,' delving into a decades-old case involving a boarding school, the murder of a brother and sister, and a dubious confession. This would introduce fresh mysteries and suspects. Team Dynamics: The misfit squad—Carl, Akram, Rose, and Hardy—will likely grow stronger, with more resources secured via Season 1's budget win. Personal stakes, like Carl's guilt and Hardy's recovery, will deepen the narrative. Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Brits 'devastated' as beloved fried chicken chain closes all UK restaurants
The Korean fried chicken shop chain Chick 'n' Sours shut its Haggerston and Seven Dials restaurants in London last Sunday A popula r fast food chain has closed all of its restaurants as it was "no longer viable" to keep them open. The Korean fried chicken shop chain Chick 'n' Sours shut its Haggerston and Seven Dials restaurants in London last Sunday. The chain first opened in 2015 and was loved by Londoners for its sweet and sour cocktails, crispy chicken and seaweed 'crack' seasoning. One of the restaurant's signature dishes was the Hot Chicken Bun which featured fried chicken thigh, house pickles, slaw, and a piquant sauce. In a post on Instagram, the restaurant's co-founder, David Wolanski, said the chain had hung on for "as long as we could". The post read: "Hello, it's with mixed emotions I'm here to tell you that we have closed our Chick 'N Sours restaurants in Seven Dials and Haggerston. 'Sunday night was our last day of trading. We do what we do because we love it, fuelled by passion and a desire to provide guests with awesome food and memorable dining experiences. But that's not enough these days. 'We hung in there as long as we could but I'm afraid that we've now reached the point where operating the two restaurants just isn't viable any more and it makes no commercial sense to continue. "The casual dining restaurant model is broken, but that's for another post. It's been an incredible journey from when Carl & I came up with the idea of opening the best chicken shop in the world 10 years ago on the back of my scooter. We scraped together what limited funds we had to open Haggerston and go on this wild roller coaster of a trip." The post added: 'Remember, there are so many awesome independent restaurants out there doing great things but finding it tough out there also. "We know things are tight for everyone but they need you. Go see them and spend your money with them, as the phrase 'use it or lose it' has never been so relevant.' Fans of the chicken shop will be pleased to know that it will continue its residencies at the Roof East and Corner Corner food halls. Chick 'n' Sours will also still be available on Deliveroo, with the brand also appearing at UK festivals and live music events. The restaurant was founded by Wolanski and Carl Clarke after the pair met at Latitude festival. At its height, the chain had four restaurants in the capital.
