I'm so tired hearing Rana repeating the same words: "I did't plan for any of this", "I love (you) Zee". Very repetitive sentences. And tired of Kate playing around with Sophie. Everybody needs to have an honest conversation. I believe that in the future the roles will invert and Zee will be a great friend of Rana, while she is with Kate.
I agree @Alixs. I was referring to the fact that the way she says it is repetitive, referring to the writing side of the soap, not the actual events. Sorry if I wasn't clear. :)
I don't like that Kate is using Sophie like this. She is still grieving Maddie, and this is the first time she has thought about dating anyone else. Why can't they bring in someone properly for Sophie. She is our original gay girl in Corrie after all! I think that Aiden will leave because he is too afraid of being Carla's donor (he is leaving), so Kate will step in and there will be complications, (but Kate will survive), which will eventually lead Rana to realise its Kate she wants! Thats how I would do it anyway!
Brooke for a little while before (Can't say now?) didn't want a love interest, a proper love interest because she doesn't wish for Sophie to be all about her relationships. If an actress asks for that, well you can't write it in can you?
I understand that, but, if she's under contract, she does whatever the script says, and its not as if shes had any other storyline since Maddie. Considering Sophie was always so good at school, gaining all A's and A*'s except a B in RS for her GCSE's, I thought they could have had her go back to college and maybe Uni, to show that the average person can do well. I think as a character that has been in it since she was born, 'Sophie' not just Brooke, deserves more. The same with Helen Flanagan (Rosie) since she's been back. Such a great character and she's done nothing. I hope she doesn't decide to leave for good when she has the baby.
I know she didn't want to, but she is a character that is being written by a group of people sat in a room. They could have sent her to university, but they chose not to. I think it would have been good to show young people, especially LGBT people, that they can go out there and make something of themselves. How cool would it have been to have the gay character studying to be a doctor or a teacher etc?! Instead, she cleans windows for a living. I'm not saying theres anything wrong with that, but it's a missed opportunity I think.
Ahh but then you run into the tricky thing of Sophie going off training somewhere that isn't in Coronation, Rosamund or Victoria street. That's their M.O, like most soaps that 99% of characters have to live and/or work on one of those streets. That's why the living arrangement are a bit nutty. Though they are extending the set so it may improve in this regard.
MlleNnCo All in the name of tying to protect herself from getting hurt again. She doesn’t want to keep fanning the flames of her love for Rana (right now) coz she believes the situation with Rana hasn’t changed. So she’s trying to move on, genuinely, I think. The viewers know Rana’s side, but Kate doesn’t, and vice versa. So, yes, she’s lying to herself right now, which I think she knows. But it’s all in order to try to move forward and potentially find someone that is available for her to be with. All this to say, none of her attempts will actually stick. WE know this. So we just get to continue watching as they all head toward a cliff that only we can see! Yaaaaayyyyyy! The path is a long and windy one, but it will be worth it in the end(game)! 😂😬
dloaded That is what she's doing. She's trying to forget Rana because she thinks she will never win with her so there's just no point. But she can't stop thinking about her 😄. Anyway, I read on Twitter earlier that the reason for Kate's behavior is cuz she's still not grasping the gravity of Rana's situation..shes clueless.. until she finds out about the contract. Then she will regret outing Rana and try to help her, save her hopefully. That would be great. It's a good theory.
stephkt (this turned into a long post, sorry!) Anyway, I just gotta give you SO many kudos!! For rewatching and editing all scenes Kate and Rana related, regardless of the awfulness included (Kophie/Zee/evil parents/etc.). And for posting their scenes the same day they air, even though it requires you stay up late and sometimes torture yourself!! And for always being the first to come to Kana’s defense against the commenters on here that doubt the ending of their game! 😜 And of course being here to ease people’s minds about (the short lived) Kophie!! I know it’s a lot, and I know it’s exhausting. Hang in there! You’re doing Bhavting’s work (as ship captain, see? 😉). Also, I know I’ve contributed to the doubter’s conversation these last few episodes, but I’m reformed now! Haha! I’m fully committed to Kana endgame, finally! I know it’s gonna be painful to see Rana in so much pain without much support, and it’s gonna be fucking unbearable for me to see Kophie. It’s already awful, and so far we’ve only had to see Kate smiling/flirting with her. (Side note: I literally can’t express the extent of my disdain for their pairing. But alas, I know it’s all in order to sweeten the Kana reunion. I think I’ll just have to step back a little when it comes to anything Kophie related, in order to prevent some sort of lasting resentment towards the writers, or Kate herself, gawds forbid!). But I’m gonna be backing you up from now on! No more adding to your already heavy load! 😬👍 So, to wrap it up now- THANK YOU, as always!!!! For everything you do for the fans!! It doesn’t go unappreciated!! And if you ever want assistance with something, like English subtitles (sans your snarky ad-libs), let me know. I’m talking like I could type up the actual dialogue and then let you insert your comedic relief while you review it to ensure accuracy, haha! Just putting the offer out there so you know you have an option if you ever need/want it 🙂 no pressure in any way tho! (Another side note: just a heads up, I know you know your videos are getting more and more popular, which means loads more “general” fans are coming by, which sorta makes it more likely that I’m gonna piss someone off with my anti-Kophie/Zee comments. If you don’t want me to put that sort of stuff in the comments just let me know. I’ll just find another way of releasing my frustrations, haha! Cool? Cool. You’re the best steph! 🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️😉)
dloaded you're a regular here, I always see your name pop up and I appreciate it because I feel like I always agree with you! Keep commenting pal 👍 also definitely agreed, stephkt is an absolute legend!!!
Sinead R Hahaha, thanks for the support! I’m already going HAM! Not pulling punches! Gotta take a break though coz I can tell I’m gonna get too worked up if I don’t. I’ll be back tho 😈
This is all just a mess. Sophie doesn't deserve to be used like that, she needs a girl that loves her.. I honestly don't care if Kate & Rana end up together or if Kate & Sophie end up together. Love both pairs, just want them all to be happy but this is a soap opera which means no one is ever 100% happy lol
Thanks. You didn't cut any Rob n Zee (I was actually looking forward to getting to skip some of that). You cut not just Sophie/Ty, but a bit of Kate. Soph/Ty from Sophie hurt by the brush off to the not so subtle shade against them dating just seemed relevant to where Kate and Rana went wrong encouraging Sophie. I thought the disagreement where Sophie was saying why can't C n D be innocent (which that outlook is part of why she hasn't got wise to Kate, Rana, etc) vs Ty's can't keep (I 4get) away? Off? Of course they did. It was the cold shade , but a very telling contrast about what isn't happening between Sophie and Kate and what did happen with Kana. Also, I liked Kate's and Sophie's reactions, they were funny. I really think at some point Soph will be a supporter and friend to kana.
Washu Ai yeah maybe I should have included that, I'm never 100%. That's why for example I included Carla speaking with Aiden because it seemed somewhat relevant to what's to come. But their reactions to Carla and Daniel..well really they didn't say anything and it's all about Carla and Daniel. I lost a few facial expressions of Kate and Sophie...not the be all and end all. Maybe I'll think more on it in the future, thanks.
stephkt I got why you included Carla and Aiden, I understood you were trying to cut out the C n D. I didn't say their faces were relevant, just funny. I appreciate it isn't easy deciding what is or isn't relevant to Kana's story, or Kate's and Rana's stories as it will be at times.
funkycutie23 :D thanks! Yes absolutely, the dates in the titles are the dates of airing :) They will be on next in tomorrow's episodes. I've put when Corrie airs in the description box. Kate & Rana aren't in every episode of course. Thank goodness, I'd be exhausted with all the angst/intensity. Thanks for watching! I will warn you, there's more turmoil in the next few weeks
stephkt oh no! Why do most lesbian love stories never get a happy ending! Thanks so much for taking the time to upload these, it's much appreciated and you are probably helping more people than you realise! X
funkycutie23 aw there will be a happy ending but in true soap power couple style, they have to go through many trials and tribulations first. They'll be a couple soon enough :)
Kate is trying to do the "right" thing. She was prepared to not go out with Sophie cuz she knows she likes her, but decided to take the advice of her sister and cousin in the hopes maybe, since she doesn't not like Sophie, then maybe something could happen. She never wanted to be the woman she became for Rana, we all know she fought it along the way. But love won out in the end. It happens. Now, tho, after yet another broken promise by Rana to come clean to Zee (whom I've always disliked!), she is once again trying to move on. Yeah, she threw Rana under the bus by admitting it was her she had the affair with, but deep down I think she feels Rana will fight for her marriage cuz she is too scared of her parents to stand up to them and say what she wants. So, Kate is doing the only thing she can right now, and that's trying to move on. It is a shame for Sophie, who has no clue of the undercurrents happening round her, cuz she's sweet, kind and truly thinks she has a chance. Wish, here, Kate would have come clean with her and allowed her the chance to make a choice for herself.
I'm sick of Rana always getting treated bad. In sick of her aways out to be the bad guy. I'm sick of the up/down and yes/no's. This could had been a great love story... Even, if people get hurt. Now.. one less lesbian couple of worth... To look forward to watching. Sad...
I know babes. Just disappointed there will be one less couple to watch... That's all! I do appreciate all you do to bring videos like this. It takes time... Again, appreciated. Cheers
Alixs Beach Hang in there. They’re gonna be a couple. It’s been confirmed! It’s just gonna require Rana to accept herself and be strong enough to stand on her own, putting herself first and telling Zee and her parents to eff off!
dloaded they need to get back together..... why all this tv series promising up and teasing up something on us and keep balling on it.its break my heart really oh god......are you sure the are gonna be together and happy as normal couple?
for a little bit of time, yes, but the marriage is over. there's no romantic love there, and look how angry zee is, there's literally nothing to build on.
This better be for real for Kate because Sophie does not deserve anything that Zeedan is going through. This is what Rana did wrong, not telling Zeedan. And Kate should be grown up enough to tell Sophie that's she commited or just playing her to get over Rana. But I think that maybe she does still like Sophie - who has been there for Kate numerous times- and start reigniting the old flame. I do hope and pray that the writers do Sophie justice but above all that, she deserves happiness. She has been a pioneering character as the first lesbian on the show. Let alone her longstanding time on show- she deserves respect. And I hope she gets it with Kate. And the way they looked at each other in the Rovers........feels 😊
Kate is getting me so upset. Like why is she pretending that Rana isn't on her mind! I used to be eager to watch this. Hope the writers change things up because I'm beginning to lose respect for Kate and Zee!!! And stephkt.... thank you for always being on top of your upload game!
Kate is pretending that Rana isn't on her mind because 1) the writer have written that way to stick with the plot that they have planned coming up now which is for Rana to be isolated and alone. Parents and Zeedan will tread all over her, manipulate and blackmail etc so Kate had to be out of the picture 2) Kate is lying through her teeth 3) Kate lashes out, goes into denial when she is hurt. This is where we we're at. Rana's angry at Kate for her behavior, Kate is hurt that Rana isn't fighting to be with her so they've gone their separate ways and are now putting on a brave facr
If i read the comments her i really have to ask if anyone her knows why soaps are called soaps? A soap has to have drama ect. In it. Or it wont get the wanted viewer ratings. If it was all rainbow and unicorns it would be boring and people would likely stop watching it live. Besides i can understand rana and kate but rana isnt a victim here. She is at fault as much as kate is. Sh says to kate i tell zee about us and then she doesnt. Do any of you knkw how heartbreaking it has to be for kate to wait for rana cause she wanted to do it on her own and then see her with zee and family laughing about. And it was so obvious she didnt tell anything? No wonder kate pulled the break. She was at her breaking point. She isnt a person who can be someones dirty secret in the dark for long and rana knew that. But know she cant tell zee? Know after kate broke up cause she is jealous and feels guilty having lied so long to zee? Really. ? And kate didnt have much of a choice when she told zeedan it was her. Yes the aftermath with rana could have been so much better if the writer had wrote it better. And yes i understand how hard it is for rana and how dangerous . But even if her parents disown her , she now knows she will always haver her brother
I’m not sure how I came across your videos but I am very grateful for them. I hate all the soaps. So even though they have gay characters in them I can’t bear to watch a whole half an hour plus a night just to see them. But having these clips that your throw together is perfect! So thanks! But seriously why is Kate being off with Rana? She has finally done what she wanted and she has left her on her own? I don’t get it! 😢
Am lesbian will travel with IBD :D no problemo! Soaps aren't for everyone. Firstly, the writing for the past week was a bit shoddy due to it being plot driven rather then character driven. This is deliberate so they can move onto the next phase of Kana's story which is possibly the most important because it is all about Rana's journey into accepting herself, loving herself and believing that she is worthy of love basically. Before that though is turmoil, so they need Rana to be completely isolated and alone. This is impossible if Kate is in the picture so sadly the character of Kate was thrown a little under the bus to facilitate their plan. Good plan but crap execution. Kate has always been loved and validated by her family, she's never been confused over her sexuality or had any issues that we know of from others because of it. One of their conflicts has always been that Kate cannot empathise with Rana's situation in terms of coming out. And that's the thing, Kate did not get what she wanted which was to have an open and loving relationship with Rana. Rana didn't come out to Zeedan, so Kate may feel like she's still ashamed of their love or that Rana is still not ready to come out. Rana really isn't ready and so Kate & Rana cannot be together until Rana is ready, until she knows and loves who she is. Secondly, Rana didn't tell Zeedan in order to be with Kate, she told him to absolve herself if the guilt, to stay with him and to fix it. Another kick in the teeth for Kate. Like Kate said on Wednesday, it physically hurts her to see Rana with Zeedan. It was already over between them and yet Rana still wanted to be mates. Kate can't do that. She's suffering in her own way. Next week onwards Kate will think that Rana is moving on with Zeedan so she'll do the same, try to move on with Sophie. Kate will be completely in the dark over Rana's situation and how horrid it is. BUT when she finds out, I reckon she will be crushed, guilty and heart broken, even helpless over it. They'll find a way back together. Rana is pissed at Kate a bit at the moment anyway so she won't seek her out either. Hope all this helps
stephkt wow thank you for that in depth reply! Everything you said is very true! Why do soaps have to be so sad though?! I hope you are right and do get back together and they live happily ever.....well as long as the writers deem. Also I would like to know when they managed to have sex 5 or 6 times?! 🤔 they were always getting interrupted!!! X
Kate was single after kaz for months and Sophie did not want a drink with Kate and now suddenly she remembers the drink they were planning for ages. Stupid writing. They can do so much better.
These two were like nails on a chalkboard this episode. It's just crazy. I really hope the just reconcile and stop bringing everyone down with them. They have to own up to what they did.
I feels like kate doing ... what rhana did. . Lying ... she could tell sophie about rhana. . Since she outing people now. Smh. But she hasnt because she knew she kinda was untrue to sophie
Really getting irritated as Kate is avoiding Rana! She should be there to support but Kate backs off! Has Kate lost interest on Rana and goin to Sophie Yuck Nooo way! If that so KaNa story is over ! Hate the writers
Nan Z of course it's not over! Kate & Rana are upset and angry at each other right now. Plus the writing is shoddy because it is plot driven in order for Rana to feel completely isolated and alone. Kate is and will be left in the dark over how terrible Rana's situation is and will become. Hopefully the writing picks back up again next week but this turmoil is going to continue. Welcome to soaps :)
?Hi Stephkt Hope so KaNa to be back soon ...Waiting for the lovable chemistry moment btwn Kate & Rana! Thank U for ur welcome! A great thanks for uploading the videos !!!
they need to get back together..... why all this tv series promising up and teasing up something on us and keep balling on it.its break my heart really oh god
this is just working my doubts into believing it may be over between Kate and Rana. Sofie pushing for a proper date.. Kate not asking how Rana is.. Rana and that same line, "I didn't plan for any of this." (They must have writers block or somethin cuz I could give a few better lines they could've had her say) If this is just the beginning of the obstacles and turmoil to come, how can they even come back from this and all that's to come?
Because true love in soaps never runs smooth. That's what makes them end game. This storyline is really about Rana and her journey which is the next stage of the storyline to play out. Kate & Rana cannot be together until Rana is ready to be herself, love herself and know that she is worthy of being loved. It was NEVER going to be an easy road. These two only have one setting > Intense
Katara Waterbender I will say this as devils advocate, Rana is not ready to be out, no way. Once she is ready, and loves, accepts herself, that is when they'll be together honestly and out in the open.
stephkt ok but..i really hope that kate and rana will be together! Because it don't any sense this situation if they stop! Another gay story trap just for audience?! It seems to me! Anyway i always thank you for your work on youtube!❤ I'm italian 😘
Seriously? I thought this soap actually was portraying a great lesbian storyline and then they go and screw it up!!! If shows are afraid of the backlash.. Why portray them at all? This had my interest and now I'm losing it.
Rachael Longacre Their storyline *is* being portrayed, and it will continue to be portrayed. These are soaps, so storylines aren’t concluded immediately, or easily, if ever. Kate and Rana are going through a rough patch right now, but they will get through it and find each other again soon. So far their storyline has all been a foundation laid in order to bring awareness to Rana’s experience as a Muslim woman with homophobic parents and husband. Stories like hers are very common but rarely portrayed. That part of their journey has literally just begun this week. But we know they will be together “in the end.” I’m hoping that it’s once Rana has endured the awfulness, come out stronger and confident in her identity, and is able to accept that losing her parents might actually be what’s best for her future happiness. Not sure of the steps in between now and their reunion, but they’ll definitely be together again. For sure by then or soon after she’ll be able to proudly stand by Kate and love her openly. Just gotta hang in there. Or not. But it’ll be worth it if you do. The story they’re telling is a long one, but it’s a real one and will help loads of people along the way.
LARC BALLET Yup, that’s Kate. Out to manipulate feelings and screw people over. What a bitch! 🙄 (just so we’re clear, I’m being completely sarcastic.) Kate’s honestly trying to move forward, passed Rana. She’s genuinely hoping she can. She’s trying with Sophie, as much as she can anyway, considering her still existing feelings for Rana. There isn’t any “playing” of anyone going on.
I am ok Kate with Sophie, I want Rana find the other girl that she in love with. I wish Amy Downham who play Jen in Hollyoaks come join to Corrie and replace Kate for Rana ✌😁
+stephkt that is only my fiction because I am little bit disappointed by the writter of Corrie that changed our kate 😩 I am so into with the Rana's character and I want Rana to be happy 😢
I get that this is a soap, that I am following in bits on TH-cam, but this storyline is all over the place. Kate’s going to yank another person around because she can? She isn’t going to talk to the person that she “loved” last week? And Rana calling her a snake, because she outed her? I understand being scared to come out, being scared to lose what you know, but they are behaving so strangely. This will get better, right?
Lesa Holley I'm sure it will. Sadly Corrie's writing has dips in it because it's constant. It's just this is the first time it's truly affected our storyline here. Kate & Rana are upset and angry at each other for different reasons, plus as I keep saying because they're writing this week has been plot driven, it will seem higgledy piggledy. The idea that Rana is completely isolated and alone in order for the plot to take shape for the next part of their story. If Kate & Rana are on speaking terms then this part cannot play out the way they would like. I'm not saying it has been executed well by all means but we have made our voices heard. It has been written, filmed etc, there's not much more we can do but Corrie's writing has ups and downs. This past week was our down. I'm sure it will get better again :)
Omg i start to loose hopes for kana... It seems like the script is leading them to just pretend that nothing happens and dont talk to each other... And Rana been back with zee... If thats the case IM DONE
Inked.loved. lez Of course she is going to go back to Zee. Rana is terrified of being out!! Plus her parents are basically going to pay Zee to stay married to her and they'll blackmail Rana, manipulate her to stay with him too. Have you no sympathy for Rana's situation? It isn't easy. Kate has always had it easy, that's why she struggles to understand. Kate will be in the dark about all this but when she finds out she will be there for Rana.
Do you know what it looks like? the usual ... what happens in most films or series with lesbian couples ... it will not work. a return to her husband and Kate is gone. unfortunately this is the "happy ending" of gay couples in series and novels
Juliana Acioly this is a Soap. And one that's on every week of the year. They draw out every narrative. We've known for months that the goal for this storyline is for Kate & Rana to be a couple by the end. As I say, everything takes months on Corrie because it can Plus this guarantees them more screentime than usual. Rana is going to go through hell for the next several weeks yep but eventually Kate will find out what's been going on and will be devastated, and will seek out to help Rana. They're both stubborn but in love with each other. Make no mistake they will be together eventually. The road is not always smooth to be with the person you're in love with. They were always going to have all these obstacles thrown at them. It makes for a 'supercouple' sometimes. And in terms of a happy ending well you don't really get that on Corrie unless both actresses stay on the soap forever or they both leave at the same time. However, we will certainly have a 'happy ending' for however long they're there. Both actresses wish for Kate & Rana to get married
Kate's being an awful person leading on and using Sophie as a rebound. I don't like her one bit. She doesn't even seem to give a damn about what Rana (the women she supposedly loves) and Zee (her good mate) are going through. She just sits to have a fake date with Sophie without a worry in the world. I don't blame Rana for being worried about Zeedan. He is someone she loves and cares about, so it's understandable she'd be concerned about him and doesn't diminish what she feels for kate (be that her love and her disappointment in her as well). This storyline has gone off the rails. Bring in someone new for both sophie and rana I say.
I feel so bad for Sophie :/ I wish they could make Sian come back ! Sophie has suffered enough she doesn't need to get hurt again by the Kana drama
Thank you for the scenes can't wait until next week it's getting really good story
Thanks for uploading I watch every video !!
I'm so tired hearing Rana repeating the same words: "I did't plan for any of this", "I love (you) Zee". Very repetitive sentences. And tired of Kate playing around with Sophie. Everybody needs to have an honest conversation. I believe that in the future the roles will invert and Zee will be a great friend of Rana, while she is with Kate.
Aha! But soaps cannot allow for honest conversations, otherwise then they have no show :)
That's true for sure @stephkt :D
Dina Barbosa if they planned it... There wouldn't be any drama.
I agree @Alixs. I was referring to the fact that the way she says it is repetitive, referring to the writing side of the soap, not the actual events. Sorry if I wasn't clear. :)
I don't like that Kate is using Sophie like this. She is still grieving Maddie, and this is the first time she has thought about dating anyone else. Why can't they bring in someone properly for Sophie. She is our original gay girl in Corrie after all!
I think that Aiden will leave because he is too afraid of being Carla's donor (he is leaving), so Kate will step in and there will be complications, (but Kate will survive), which will eventually lead Rana to realise its Kate she wants! Thats how I would do it anyway!
Brooke for a little while before (Can't say now?) didn't want a love interest, a proper love interest because she doesn't wish for Sophie to be all about her relationships. If an actress asks for that, well you can't write it in can you?
I understand that, but, if she's under contract, she does whatever the script says, and its not as if shes had any other storyline since Maddie. Considering Sophie was always so good at school, gaining all A's and A*'s except a B in RS for her GCSE's, I thought they could have had her go back to college and maybe Uni, to show that the average person can do well. I think as a character that has been in it since she was born, 'Sophie' not just Brooke, deserves more. The same with Helen Flanagan (Rosie) since she's been back. Such a great character and she's done nothing. I hope she doesn't decide to leave for good when she has the baby.
Ah but Sophie didn't want to go to University, much to Sally's chagrin :) At the end of the day it's easy money
I know she didn't want to, but she is a character that is being written by a group of people sat in a room. They could have sent her to university, but they chose not to. I think it would have been good to show young people, especially LGBT people, that they can go out there and make something of themselves. How cool would it have been to have the gay character studying to be a doctor or a teacher etc?! Instead, she cleans windows for a living. I'm not saying theres anything wrong with that, but it's a missed opportunity I think.
Ahh but then you run into the tricky thing of Sophie going off training somewhere that isn't in Coronation, Rosamund or Victoria street. That's their M.O, like most soaps that 99% of characters have to live and/or work on one of those streets. That's why the living arrangement are a bit nutty. Though they are extending the set so it may improve in this regard.
Oh and of course.. Thank you stephkt. Truly.
Love how Rana sasses out Rosie, hate nosey people smh
Afzaa Zamir I wonder if that's relevant.
This is a joke... Kate spills those lies with too much ease. Why don't you take a sip of honesty with your drink, girl.
Well said! Enough with the lies.
MlleNnCo All in the name of tying to protect herself from getting hurt again. She doesn’t want to keep fanning the flames of her love for Rana (right now) coz she believes the situation with Rana hasn’t changed. So she’s trying to move on, genuinely, I think.

So we just get to continue watching as they all head toward a cliff that only we can see! Yaaaaayyyyyy! The path is a long and windy one, but it will be worth it in the end(game)! 😂😬
dloaded That is what she's doing. She's trying to forget Rana because she thinks she will never win with her so there's just no point. But she can't stop thinking about her 😄.

lol thank you Steph for cutting the Kate and Sophie scene short. No one wants to watch that disaster!
natti49 EXACTLY nobody wants to see that
Same I just hate that
stephkt (this turned into a long post, sorry!)
Anyway, I just gotta give you SO many kudos!! For rewatching and editing all scenes Kate and Rana related, regardless of the awfulness included (Kophie/Zee/evil parents/etc.). And for posting their scenes the same day they air, even though it requires you stay up late and sometimes torture yourself!!

I know it’s gonna be painful to see Rana in so much pain without much support, and it’s gonna be fucking unbearable for me to see Kophie.

But I’m gonna be backing you up from now on! No more adding to your already heavy load!
😬👍
So, to wrap it up now- THANK YOU, as always!!!! For everything you do for the fans!! It doesn’t go unappreciated!! And if you ever want assistance with something, like English subtitles (sans your snarky ad-libs), let me know. I’m talking like I could type up the actual dialogue and then let you insert your comedic relief while you review it to ensure accuracy, haha! Just putting the offer out there so you know you have an option if you ever need/want it 🙂 no pressure in any way tho!
(Another side note: just a heads up, I know you know your videos are getting more and more popular, which means loads more “general” fans are coming by, which sorta makes it more likely that I’m gonna piss someone off with my anti-Kophie/Zee comments. If you don’t want me to put that sort of stuff in the comments just let me know. I’ll just find another way of releasing my frustrations, haha! Cool? Cool. You’re the best steph! 🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️😉)
dloaded you're a regular here, I always see your name pop up and I appreciate it because I feel like I always agree with you! Keep commenting pal 👍 also definitely agreed, stephkt is an absolute legend!!!
Sinead R Hahaha, thanks for the support! I’m already going HAM! Not pulling punches! Gotta take a break though coz I can tell I’m gonna get too worked up if I don’t. I’ll be back tho 😈
dloaded I feel you on that one 👌 it's funny how worked up we can get about tv shows 🙈
The writers always fucks up the storylines
This is all just a mess. Sophie doesn't deserve to be used like that, she needs a girl that loves her.. I honestly don't care if Kate & Rana end up together or if Kate & Sophie end up together. Love both pairs, just want them all to be happy but this is a soap opera which means no one is ever 100% happy lol
Stop messing with Sophie's feelings 😒😒
And I'm still on Rana's side
Sophie is to good for kate.
well yes i said it and I don't care.This just make Sophie and us fan of her look stupid.
That hair style Sophie got makes her like spence from pretty little lairs
Too Complicated
Thanks. You didn't cut any Rob n Zee (I was actually looking forward to getting to skip some of that). You cut not just Sophie/Ty, but a bit of Kate. Soph/Ty from Sophie hurt by the brush off to the not so subtle shade against them dating just seemed relevant to where Kate and Rana went wrong encouraging Sophie.
I thought the disagreement where Sophie was saying why can't C n D be innocent (which that outlook is part of why she hasn't got wise to Kate, Rana, etc) vs Ty's can't keep (I 4get) away? Off? Of course they did. It was the cold shade , but a very telling contrast about what isn't happening between Sophie and Kate and what did happen with Kana. Also, I liked Kate's and Sophie's reactions, they were funny. I really think at some point Soph will be a supporter and friend to kana.
Washu Ai yeah maybe I should have included that, I'm never 100%. That's why for example I included Carla speaking with Aiden because it seemed somewhat relevant to what's to come. But their reactions to Carla and Daniel..well really they didn't say anything and it's all about Carla and Daniel. I lost a few facial expressions of Kate and Sophie...not the be all and end all. Maybe I'll think more on it in the future, thanks.
stephkt I got why you included Carla and Aiden, I understood you were trying to cut out the C n D. I didn't say their faces were relevant, just funny. I appreciate it isn't easy deciding what is or isn't relevant to Kana's story, or Kate's and Rana's stories as it will be at times.
You are amazing for uploading all this! Im hooked! Is this up to date in real time? Like is the story continuing in corrie now?
funkycutie23 :D thanks! Yes absolutely, the dates in the titles are the dates of airing :) They will be on next in tomorrow's episodes. I've put when Corrie airs in the description box. Kate & Rana aren't in every episode of course. Thank goodness, I'd be exhausted with all the angst/intensity. Thanks for watching! I will warn you, there's more turmoil in the next few weeks
stephkt oh no! Why do most lesbian love stories never get a happy ending! Thanks so much for taking the time to upload these, it's much appreciated and you are probably helping more people than you realise! X
funkycutie23 aw there will be a happy ending but in true soap power couple style, they have to go through many trials and tribulations first. They'll be a couple soon enough :)
Kate is trying to do the "right" thing. She was prepared to not go out with Sophie cuz she knows she likes her, but decided to take the advice of her sister and cousin in the hopes maybe, since she doesn't not like Sophie, then maybe something could happen. She never wanted to be the woman she became for Rana, we all know she fought it along the way. But love won out in the end. It happens. Now, tho, after yet another broken promise by Rana to come clean to Zee (whom I've always disliked!), she is once again trying to move on. Yeah, she threw Rana under the bus by admitting it was her she had the affair with, but deep down I think she feels Rana will fight for her marriage cuz she is too scared of her parents to stand up to them and say what she wants. So, Kate is doing the only thing she can right now, and that's trying to move on. It is a shame for Sophie, who has no clue of the undercurrents happening round her, cuz she's sweet, kind and truly thinks she has a chance. Wish, here, Kate would have come clean with her and allowed her the chance to make a choice for herself.
I do hope Cori doesn’t think that outing people is okay.
I'm sick of Rana always getting treated bad. In sick of her aways out to be the bad guy. I'm sick of the up/down and yes/no's. This could had been a great love story... Even, if people get hurt. Now.. one less lesbian couple of worth... To look forward to watching. Sad...
Alixs Beach have you watched a soap before? Shit was always going to hit the fan
I know babes. Just disappointed there will be one less couple to watch... That's all! I do appreciate all you do to bring videos like this. It takes time... Again, appreciated. Cheers
Alixs Beach Hang in there. They’re gonna be a couple. It’s been confirmed! It’s just gonna require Rana to accept herself and be strong enough to stand on her own, putting herself first and telling Zee and her parents to eff off!
dloaded spoiler alert. And... I'll take it! Thank you... You rock!😘
dloaded they need to get back together..... why all this tv series promising up and teasing up something on us and keep balling on it.its break my heart really oh god......are you sure the are gonna be together and happy as normal couple?
I feel like Rana is gonna get back to Zee🙃
for a little bit of time, yes, but the marriage is over. there's no romantic love there, and look how angry zee is, there's literally nothing to build on.
This better be for real for Kate because Sophie does not deserve anything that Zeedan is going through. This is what Rana did wrong, not telling Zeedan. And Kate should be grown up enough to tell Sophie that's she commited or just playing her to get over Rana. But I think that maybe she does still like Sophie - who has been there for Kate numerous times- and start reigniting the old flame. I do hope and pray that the writers do Sophie justice but above all that, she deserves happiness. She has been a pioneering character as the first lesbian on the show. Let alone her longstanding time on show- she deserves respect.
And I hope she gets it with Kate.
And the way they looked at each other in the Rovers........feels 😊
Kate is getting me so upset. Like why is she pretending that Rana isn't on her mind! I used to be eager to watch this. Hope the writers change things up because I'm beginning to lose respect for Kate and Zee!!! And stephkt.... thank you for always being on top of your upload game!
Kate is pretending that Rana isn't on her mind because 1) the writer have written that way to stick with the plot that they have planned coming up now which is for Rana to be isolated and alone. Parents and Zeedan will tread all over her, manipulate and blackmail etc so Kate had to be out of the picture 2) Kate is lying through her teeth 3) Kate lashes out, goes into denial when she is hurt. This is where we we're at. Rana's angry at Kate for her behavior, Kate is hurt that Rana isn't fighting to be with her so they've gone their separate ways and are now putting on a brave facr
If i read the comments her i really have to ask if anyone her knows why soaps are called soaps? A soap has to have drama ect. In it. Or it wont get the wanted viewer ratings. If it was all rainbow and unicorns it would be boring and people would likely stop watching it live. Besides i can understand rana and kate but rana isnt a victim here. She is at fault as much as kate is. Sh says to kate i tell zee about us and then she doesnt. Do any of you knkw how heartbreaking it has to be for kate to wait for rana cause she wanted to do it on her own and then see her with zee and family laughing about. And it was so obvious she didnt tell anything? No wonder kate pulled the break. She was at her breaking point. She isnt a person who can be someones dirty secret in the dark for long and rana knew that. But know she cant tell zee? Know after kate broke up cause she is jealous and feels guilty having lied so long to zee? Really. ? And kate didnt have much of a choice when she told zeedan it was her. Yes the aftermath with rana could have been so much better if the writer had wrote it better. And yes i understand how hard it is for rana and how dangerous . But even if her parents disown her , she now knows she will always haver her brother
I’m not sure how I came across your videos but I am very grateful for them. I hate all the soaps. So even though they have gay characters in them I can’t bear to watch a whole half an hour plus a night just to see them. But having these clips that your throw together is perfect! So thanks! But seriously why is Kate being off with Rana? She has finally done what she wanted and she has left her on her own? I don’t get it! 😢
Am lesbian will travel with IBD :D no problemo! Soaps aren't for everyone.
Firstly, the writing for the past week was a bit shoddy due to it being plot driven rather then character driven. This is deliberate so they can move onto the next phase of Kana's story which is possibly the most important because it is all about Rana's journey into accepting herself, loving herself and believing that she is worthy of love basically. Before that though is turmoil, so they need Rana to be completely isolated and alone. This is impossible if Kate is in the picture so sadly the character of Kate was thrown a little under the bus to facilitate their plan. Good plan but crap execution.
Kate has always been loved and validated by her family, she's never been confused over her sexuality or had any issues that we know of from others because of it. One of their conflicts has always been that Kate cannot empathise with Rana's situation in terms of coming out.
And that's the thing, Kate did not get what she wanted which was to have an open and loving relationship with Rana. Rana didn't come out to Zeedan, so Kate may feel like she's still ashamed of their love or that Rana is still not ready to come out. Rana really isn't ready and so Kate & Rana cannot be together until Rana is ready, until she knows and loves who she is.
Secondly, Rana didn't tell Zeedan in order to be with Kate, she told him to absolve herself if the guilt, to stay with him and to fix it. Another kick in the teeth for Kate.
Like Kate said on Wednesday, it physically hurts her to see Rana with Zeedan. It was already over between them and yet Rana still wanted to be mates. Kate can't do that. She's suffering in her own way.
Next week onwards Kate will think that Rana is moving on with Zeedan so she'll do the same, try to move on with Sophie. Kate will be completely in the dark over Rana's situation and how horrid it is.
BUT when she finds out, I reckon she will be crushed, guilty and heart broken, even helpless over it. They'll find a way back together. Rana is pissed at Kate a bit at the moment anyway so she won't seek her out either. Hope all this helps
stephkt wow thank you for that in depth reply! Everything you said is very true! Why do soaps have to be so sad though?! I hope you are right and do get back together and they live happily ever.....well as long as the writers deem. Also I would like to know when they managed to have sex 5 or 6 times?! 🤔 they were always getting interrupted!!! X
Kate was single after kaz for months and Sophie did not want a drink with Kate and now suddenly she remembers the drink they were planning for ages. Stupid writing. They can do so much better.
These two were like nails on a chalkboard this episode. It's just crazy. I really hope the just reconcile and stop bringing everyone down with them. They have to own up to what they did.
I want Sophie to find love again
I feel like I need to go cry in a corner now. 😩
I feels like kate doing ... what rhana did. . Lying ... she could tell sophie about rhana. . Since she outing people now. Smh. But she hasnt because she knew she kinda was untrue to sophie
Really getting irritated as Kate is avoiding Rana! She should be there to support but Kate backs off! Has Kate lost interest on Rana and goin to Sophie Yuck Nooo way! If that so KaNa story is over ! Hate the writers
Nan Z of course it's not over! Kate & Rana are upset and angry at each other right now. Plus the writing is shoddy because it is plot driven in order for Rana to feel completely isolated and alone. Kate is and will be left in the dark over how terrible Rana's situation is and will become.
Hopefully the writing picks back up again next week but this turmoil is going to continue. Welcome to soaps :)
?Hi Stephkt Hope so KaNa to be back soon ...Waiting for the lovable chemistry moment btwn Kate & Rana!
Thank U for ur welcome!
A great thanks for uploading the videos !!!
they need to get back together..... why all this tv series promising up and teasing up something on us and keep balling on it.its break my heart really oh god
this is just working my doubts into believing it may be over between Kate and Rana. Sofie pushing for a proper date.. Kate not asking how Rana is.. Rana and that same line, "I didn't plan for any of this." (They must have writers block or somethin cuz I could give a few better lines they could've had her say) If this is just the beginning of the obstacles and turmoil to come, how can they even come back from this and all that's to come?
Because true love in soaps never runs smooth. That's what makes them end game. This storyline is really about Rana and her journey which is the next stage of the storyline to play out. Kate & Rana cannot be together until Rana is ready to be herself, love herself and know that she is worthy of being loved. It was NEVER going to be an easy road. These two only have one setting > Intense
Soaimaile Leota Amen sista!!
Haha, "writers block"! Exactly what I felt about the use of that line again.
y rana y Kate quedas Junta ojú estaría muy bien
sophie deserves someone better tf
Poor sophie
They're running it
Kate is like when are you going to say when are you going to say........ Now rana is out and kate is like i Dont give a fuck
Katara Waterbender I will say this as devils advocate, Rana is not ready to be out, no way. Once she is ready, and loves, accepts herself, that is when they'll be together honestly and out in the open.
stephkt agreed
I don't understand kate ...... i can't believe that! It's stupid to destroy kana! I mean.. rana she love kate.. e kate too! Why they want forget this?
They're angry at each other, at their circumstances and they don't know everything that is going on. We'll have to wait for the honest conversations.
stephkt ok but..i really hope that kate and rana will be together! Because it don't any sense this situation if they stop! Another gay story trap just for audience?! It seems to me!
Anyway i always thank you for your work on youtube!❤
I'm italian 😘
Seriously? I thought this soap actually was portraying a great lesbian storyline and then they go and screw it up!!! If shows are afraid of the backlash.. Why portray them at all? This had my interest and now I'm losing it.
Rachael Longacre Their storyline *is* being portrayed, and it will continue to be portrayed. These are soaps, so storylines aren’t concluded immediately, or easily, if ever. Kate and Rana are going through a rough patch right now, but they will get through it and find each other again soon. So far their storyline has all been a foundation laid in order to bring awareness to Rana’s experience as a Muslim woman with homophobic parents and husband. Stories like hers are very common but rarely portrayed. That part of their journey has literally just begun this week. But we know they will be together “in the end.” I’m hoping that it’s once Rana has endured the awfulness, come out stronger and confident in her identity, and is able to accept that losing her parents might actually be what’s best for her future happiness. Not sure of the steps in between now and their reunion, but they’ll definitely be together again. For sure by then or soon after she’ll be able to proudly stand by Kate and love her openly. Just gotta hang in there. Or not. But it’ll be worth it if you do. The story they’re telling is a long one, but it’s a real one and will help loads of people along the way.
Poor Sophie played again by Kate
LARC BALLET Yup, that’s Kate. Out to manipulate feelings and screw people over. What a bitch! 🙄 (just so we’re clear, I’m being completely sarcastic.) Kate’s honestly trying to move forward, passed Rana. She’s genuinely hoping she can. She’s trying with Sophie, as much as she can anyway, considering her still existing feelings for Rana. There isn’t any “playing” of anyone going on.
I am ok Kate with Sophie, I want Rana find the other girl that she in love with. I wish Amy Downham who play Jen in Hollyoaks come join to Corrie and replace Kate for Rana ✌😁
Emma 29 ha! Nope, Rana only loves one person I'm afraid.
+stephkt that is only my fiction because I am little bit disappointed by the writter of Corrie that changed our kate 😩 I am so into with the Rana's character and I want Rana to be happy 😢
I get that this is a soap, that I am following in bits on TH-cam, but this storyline is all over the place. Kate’s going to yank another person around because she can? She isn’t going to talk to the person that she “loved” last week? And Rana calling her a snake, because she outed her? I understand being scared to come out, being scared to lose what you know, but they are behaving so strangely. This will get better, right?
Lesa Holley I'm sure it will. Sadly Corrie's writing has dips in it because it's constant. It's just this is the first time it's truly affected our storyline here.
Kate & Rana are upset and angry at each other for different reasons, plus as I keep saying because they're writing this week has been plot driven, it will seem higgledy piggledy. The idea that Rana is completely isolated and alone in order for the plot to take shape for the next part of their story. If Kate & Rana are on speaking terms then this part cannot play out the way they would like.
I'm not saying it has been executed well by all means but we have made our voices heard. It has been written, filmed etc, there's not much more we can do but Corrie's writing has ups and downs. This past week was our down. I'm sure it will get better again :)
Omg i start to loose hopes for kana... It seems like the script is leading them to just pretend that nothing happens and dont talk to each other... And Rana been back with zee... If thats the case IM DONE
Inked.loved. lez Of course she is going to go back to Zee. Rana is terrified of being out!! Plus her parents are basically going to pay Zee to stay married to her and they'll blackmail Rana, manipulate her to stay with him too. Have you no sympathy for Rana's situation? It isn't easy. Kate has always had it easy, that's why she struggles to understand. Kate will be in the dark about all this but when she finds out she will be there for Rana.
What Michelle said. Still got your hearts or hands I do not understand. They are innocent then who is Kate having affair with.
still got your hearts out on the other one
Gah It's always like that they start a story in a beautiful way and but then they gonna end it in a awful way
Do you know what it looks like? the usual ... what happens in most films or series with lesbian couples ... it will not work. a return to her husband and Kate is gone. unfortunately this is the "happy ending" of gay couples in series and novels
Juliana Acioly this is a Soap. And one that's on every week of the year. They draw out every narrative. We've known for months that the goal for this storyline is for Kate & Rana to be a couple by the end. As I say, everything takes months on Corrie because it can
Plus this guarantees them more screentime than usual.
Rana is going to go through hell for the next several weeks yep but eventually Kate will find out what's been going on and will be devastated, and will seek out to help Rana. They're both stubborn but in love with each other. Make no mistake they will be together eventually. The road is not always smooth to be with the person you're in love with.
They were always going to have all these obstacles thrown at them. It makes for a 'supercouple' sometimes.
And in terms of a happy ending well you don't really get that on Corrie unless both actresses stay on the soap forever or they both leave at the same time. However, we will certainly have a 'happy ending' for however long they're there. Both actresses wish for Kate & Rana to get married
Kate's being an awful person leading on and using Sophie as a rebound. I don't like her one bit. She doesn't even seem to give a damn about what Rana (the women she supposedly loves) and Zee (her good mate) are going through. She just sits to have a fake date with Sophie without a worry in the world. I don't blame Rana for being worried about Zeedan. He is someone she loves and cares about, so it's understandable she'd be concerned about him and doesn't diminish what she feels for kate (be that her love and her disappointment in her as well). This storyline has gone off the rails. Bring in someone new for both sophie and rana I say.
The writers really fucked up
Grrrrr i hate that
I dont like this episode
