Coronation Street fans are in for an emotional ride next week.
In the upcoming episodes, Max Turner’s exit storyline will unfold as he appears to hit rock bottom following the fire. Meanwhile, a shocking twist suggests that one character could face a tragic fate during a tense showdown.
Additionally, a cherished Weatherfield resident is scheduled for surgery after a devastating health diagnosis. Here are the key storylines to watch out for next week…
Max Turner’s collapse
On Monday night, Lancs Live reported that Max Turner was revealed as the true culprit behind the devastating fire at David and Shona Platt’s home.
The blaze, which impacted several Weatherfield residents, left Max and Toyah Battersby hospitalized. Thankfully, both fully recovered, but it was soon uncovered that the fire was an intentional act of arson. This led to the arrests of David and Leanne Battersby, despite their strong protests of innocence.
The truth was finally exposed on Monday night, thanks to Kevin Webster’s garage CCTV. While reviewing the footage, Shona identified Max’s hoodie—a Christmas present from a specialty skate shop.
The episode ended with the police carrying out forensic tests on the hoodie after finding it in a bin and linking it to the store where it was purchased.
Things appear to be going from bad to worse for Max, as upcoming spoilers reveal David and Shona visiting him in prison. They break the news that they’ve applied for his transfer to a Scottish prison for his protection.
However, Max remains doubtful about how safe he’ll be. With actor Paddy Bever, who portrays Max, set to leave the soap soon, could this mark the beginning of his exit storyline?
Shocking demise twist
In a surprising turn of events, DS Lisa Swain discovers a secret affair between Carla Connor’s brother, Rob Donovan, and prison officer Mandy during Monday night’s episode. The duo is scheming his escape while he remains in hospital, awaiting his kidney donation to Carla.
Lisa persuades Rob to proceed with the surgery, promising to work on overturning his conviction. However, next week’s spoilers suggest trouble ahead for Carla and Lisa, also known as ‘Swarla,’ as Rob is willing to go to any lengths to escape prison—regardless of who gets caught in the crossfire.
