The Podcast
Beyond Swarla is inspired by the Coronation Street pairing of Carla Connor and Lisa Swain (Swarla to its fans). Yes, it's television - and yes, it absolutely is soap - but the dynamics it portrays are very real and so are the experiences of the people watching.
We want this to feel meaningful rather than just about the fandom, so the podcast explores the real-life relationship themes t... more

Another great pod cast. Beyond Swarla is definitely my favourite, this episode was brilliant and Amy was so good. I didn’t like Becky one bit so Amy did her job,
Amy is so kind to her fellow cast you can’t help loving her. Well done Elle and Carianne . I’ve listened to all of your pod casts at least twice and the Amy interview 3 times can’t wait for the next one.
I found it quite hard going, sorry. But I enjoyed the one with Elle and I’m hoping you stay with her.
PS edit: I’ve been listening to all your episodes. They’re brilliant! In the last one, the interview was Amy was very revealing. I now don’t hate her anymore. She’s a very thoughtful and talented actress. Thank you for giving us the chance to understand how she works.
I found it quite hard going, sorry. But I enjoyed the one with Elle and I’m hoping you stay with her.

The format combines lively plot recaps, fan theories and soap nostalgia with interviews featuring actors, fan creators and people sharing personal experiences connected to the themes on screen. The hosts, Carianne and Elle, bring contrasting perspectives: Carianne is a longtime fan with a background in human resources, while Elle draws on nearly two decades as a police sergeant to comment on crime and policing storylines. The blend of enthusiastic fandom, candid personal storytelling and practical observations gives the ... more
