Summary
Carla Connor works for a companionship agency which a lonely widowed Lisa Swain decides to sign up for.
Or in other words, my brain had an idea to mix the Swarla “good mate” era with 2008 Carla x current Lisa and this is the result

Summary
“I don’t think I’ve ever seen an actual coffee pot before.”
Dana raised an eyebrow. “Never seen a coffee pot?”
“Like, I’ve never seen the pot itself, you know? Just, like, the espresso machines at Starbucks, Keurigs—those sort of things.”
Dana’s arched eyebrow ticked up a centimeter higher as she squinted at Emma for a long moment.
Abruptly anxious beneath her scrutiny, Emma reached for her waist to fidget with something, only to remember the charge nurse had plucked most of her belongings from her pockets on arrival. She settled with flicking her name badge between her fingers.
“Kid, are you younger than this coffee maker?”

Or: How Emma and Dana slowly, somewhat reluctantly, come to accept their feelings for each other.

Summary
An alternative version of the post Corriedale Connor/Swain storyline. It starts and follows just like the episode following the ITV version and parts may overlap in time but it adds more that was not shown offscreen and in my head how i would have liked it.

Summary
The Milan Cortina Winter Olympics 2026.
Carla Connor and Lisa Swain are two very different, very contrasting athletes. They’re from two very different backgrounds.
Both hold medal hopes for Team GB in Italy. Front and centre of coverage, they dominate the headlines leading up to Milan Cortina.
Working-class grit in two different forms.
Carla, the girl from the estate turned snowboarding icon, who’d fought every inch of her life for what she’d achieved and never apologised for wanting more.
Lisa, was the alpine specialist, discipline carved into her posture, used to carrying responsibility quietly.
Maybe they will leave Milan with more than gold.

Summary
As Carla and Lisa’s two worlds overlap, moments of warmth and humour sit alongside difficult truths, forcing both of them to confront what it means to trust someone with the parts of themselves they usually keep hidden. It’s a story about vulnerability, chosen family, and the courage it takes to believe that love can exist alongside imperfection — and it can flourish.
