After escaping the shed, Mick corners Gary outside and punches him to the ground. Gary grabs an empty bottle and staggers to his feet, ready for a fight. The pair are stopped by DC Kit Green, who orders Gary to drop the bottle and let Mick go.
Later, Maria and Mick’s wife Lou argue over the incident, with each of them believing their own husband’s version of events. Accused of corruption by Gary and Maria, Kit paints Gary as the villain, reminding him that he was armed with a bottle.
Coronation Street is set to air a special flashback episode, which will explore the complex history of the police detective. The storyline will reveal Kit’s past connection to Mick and Lou, and could explain the reasons behind his recent actions.
