Weatherfield is heading into a week of emotional mayhem as Coronation Street delivers one of its most riveting storylines yet. DS Lisa Swain is on the brink—haunted by grief, consumed by unanswered questions, and willing to risk it all to uncover the truth about her late wife Becky’s rumored corruption. But while Lisa’s obsession spirals into dangerous territory, her partner Carla Connor is keeping a devastating secret that could blow their relationship apart.
Lisa, still reeling from the death of Becky, is drowning in memories as the anniversary of their wedding looms. Becky’s sudden death, linked to the reckless Logan Radcliffe, left Lisa shattered—but whispers of police corruption have haunted her ever since. Now, Lisa is determined to find out whether her wife was a hero or a fraud, no matter the cost.
Despite pressure from her boss Di Costello to seek therapy, Lisa pushes back. She doesn’t want comfort—she wants answers. Therapist Floyd gently urges her to process her grief, but Lisa is laser-focused on one thing: the truth. And when her legitimate channels for accessing Becky’s case files are denied, she takes matters into her own hands, hacking into Di Costello’s emails in a reckless bid for justice.
But Lisa’s not the only one playing detective.
Carla, deeply concerned for Lisa’s wellbeing but also suspicious of what Becky may have been hiding, secretly visits Logan Radcliffe in prison. Logan, as manipulative as ever, drops hints that Becky wasn’t the golden officer Lisa believes her to be. His cryptic words rattle Carla, who realizes the truth may be far messier than anyone anticipated.
What Carla doesn’t realize is that her actions mirror Lisa’s. And when Lisa discovers that another colleague, Kit, has accessed Becky’s file, she erupts with rage, feeling betrayed by the very people she trusted. Little does she know, Carla is doing the exact same thing—behind her back.
Meanwhile, across the cobbles, the chaos continues. Todd Grimshaw finds himself in serious trouble after a violent confrontation with Noah over a dangerous conversion therapy program. Despite Theo’s desperate attempt to prevent police involvement, Todd is brought in for questioning, adding another layer of drama to an already turbulent week.
And in a moment that could rock another beloved couple, Abi Webster confronts Kevin over lies about his cancer. Devastated, Abi seeks comfort in Carl—and one impulsive, passionate kiss could mark the beginning of an affair that threatens to destroy everything.
As Lisa edges closer to the truth, Carla is faced with a terrible choice: come clean about her prison visit and risk everything, or keep quiet and watch Lisa spiral. One thing is certain—Coronation Street is hurtling toward a collision of secrets, heartbreak, and revelations that will leave fans stunned.
