Becky

Coronation Street is lining up explosive and jaw-dropping moments this Christmas period, as spoilers for the ITV soap have teased drama for several families and characters

Fans can expect a chaotic Christmas on Coronation Street, with danger, revenge and bombshells.

Bosses have said that Weatherfield “explodes” as secrets and revelations come to light. Residents will be left reeling, and fans will apparently be “on the edge of their seats”.

Maggie Driscoll, who is about to feature in a flashback episode, is front and centre this Christmas. Her act of revenge sees a group of characters brought together in dramatic fashion.

Tensions will rise in The Rovers as Eva’s wracked with guilt over a secret she’s been keeping, and her young daughter Susie’s innocent wish for a sibling sends her spiralling. When Maggie’s suspicions are piqued by a hidden letter and a tender moment between Eva and Adam Barlow, she takes action.

Maggie sets a plan into motion wanting Eva out of her son Ben’s life for good. Of course it’s Christmas Day, so what would be more dramatic than a Christmas dinner being interrupted by bombshells and twists?

With Adam and his partner Alya Nazir suddenly invited, Maggie also extends an invite to her grandson Will’s athletics coach Megan and her new flame Daniel Osbourne. Of course Maggie has no idea Megan is grooming teenager Will.

As an explosive Christmas showdown occurs, there’s “gifts with shattering consequences”, accusations, revelations and a brutal attack on one of the guests. As someone is left unconscious in the ginnel, will they be okay and who is responsible?

There’s more danger too as ‘villain’ Becky Swain takes drastic action to get her way. Having torn her ex Lisa Swain’s relationship with her new fiancée Carla Connor apart, Becky tries once more to win her back.

She’s desperate to get her family back, but amid her involvement in the attack on DI Costello and Kit Green being onto her, she’s under threat. It’s said terrifying scenes and manipulation will feature, as Becky is driven to drastic measures.

Costello still faces jeopardy, while Carla has gone AWOL after her split – seemingly living her best life in Lanzarote. But is all as it seems? As a mystery about Carla begins to unfold, Becky works on convincing Lisa and daughter Betsy that they can have the perfect Christmas.

As her lies begin to unravel though, it’s on Kit to figure out the truth about Becky, Costello’s jumbled messages, and how it all links. Christmas will also see the build-up to Debbie Webster’s wedding to Ronnie Bailey.

A shocking death is set to rock the family, with Carl Webster left devastated. It’s teased that Debbie could be hiding a secret, while Carl’s own lies could come out in the open.

Finally this Christmas, Todd Grimshaw’s abuse ordeal at the hands of partner Theo Silverton escalates. With Todd isolated and heartbroken, pal and ex Billy Mayhew becomes concerned for Todd, so will Theo be exposed? Also, The Platts gather round and watch Gail Platt’s Christmas message to the family a year on from her exit.

Coronation Street fans are convinced Cassie Plummer and Becky Swain are linked in some way, and now a scene on the ITV soap featuring a phone call has added fuel to the theory

Fans think there’s a secret link between two Coronation Street characters, and the latest episode may have ‘confirmed’ this.

Cassie Plummer spoke about helping someone with business in Spain, before speaking in Spanish on the phone. With fans already suspecting prior to this that Cassie could be somehow linked to villain Becky Swain, this scene left fans wondering if it was a given now.

After all, Becky returned from the dead months ago and it was revealed for the past four years, she has been hiding out in Spain. She’s now being told she has to return there to stop her cover being blown, with Becky wanting daughter Betsy to go with her, as well as her ex Lisa Swain.

All the sudden talk about Spain, and a scene last week that involved both Cassie and Becky, has sparked a theory that they secretly know each other. So when Cassie spoke in Spanish and revealed all about her link to the country, fans wondered if this was proof that she and Becky know each other, and that Cassie knows all about her dodgy dealings.

Taking to social media, one fan said: “Cassie speaking Spanish and knowing someone in Spain… helped him with his business… she must know Becky!! The links are starting to link.”

Another fan agreed: “If this isn’t a clue to Cassie knowing or recognising dodgy business in Spain *couch* Becky I don’t know what is. Surely this isn’t coincidence.”

A third fan added: “So Cassie can speak Spanish and helped an ex out with his ‘business’ in Spain. Oh she is so gonna be the one to reveal backhand Becky’s dodgy dealings!”

A final comment read: “So, Cassie’s talking about a Spanish boyfriend, Peter’s name being dropped recently, and Becky’s been living in Alicante. Is this all a coincidence??”

It follows another theory suggesting Cassie might know Becky, and could trigger her downfall. Fans noted her watching as Carla Connor confronted Becky for kissing Lisa Swain, and she seemed very interested.

Viewers may recall Cassie was sleeping rough while she was taking drugs. She’s now in recovery, but could Cassie and Becky have crossed paths when Cassie was on drugs?

One theory is that Becky was her dealer as others wondered if she arrested her. A fan commented: “Cassie looked like she thinks she’s seen Becky somewhere before!”

Another said: “Right it can’t just be me, it’s going to transpire Cassie knows Becky somehow isn’t it? ISN’T IT?!” A third fan wrote: “That was a look of recognition for Cassie surely. Has Becky arrested her in the past?”

A theory suggested: “Oh she’s come across her before in her past… drugs?” as another read: “I reckon she was a mate of that Tia and was in the shadows and witnessed her murder/death.” A further tweet said: “Sold her drugs is more like it.”

The theories kept on coming with one reading: “Has Becky arrested her at some point?” as someone suggested they met in Spain. A final tweet said: “I’m thinking Cassie may have had some dealings with Rebecca in the past.”
