“Next week in Coronation Street, panic takes hold as Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) reels from a string of betrayals and police drama, only for Gary Windass (Mikey North) to vanish without a trace. With Liam (Charlie Wrenshall) growing increasingly anxious and Maria fearing the worst, one big question looms: Where is Gary, and is he in danger?”
THE UNTHINKABLE DISAPPEARANCE: GARY WINDASS VANISHES!
It all kicks off when Maria returns home from the police station, having been accused of assault following her fiery confrontation with Lou Michaelis – whom she suspects of stealing cash from the salon and reporting her. Amidst Maria’s fury and suspicion about Lou and her relationship with Gary, Gary unexpectedly packs a bag, telling her he’s going to stay with his mum for a few days. Gary swears nothing happened with Lou, but Maria is distraught, breaking down in tears, devastated that he might be hiding something.

As days pass and Gary still doesn’t return home as planned, Liam, Maria’s stepson, becomes frantic when he can’t reach Gary on the phone. The young boy repeatedly asks his mum why Gary isn’t back yet, escalating Maria’s own anxiety.
DARK SECRETS SURFACE: LOU’S BLACKMAIL AND BETRAYAL REVEALED!
Unbeknownst to Maria, Lou Michaelis had paid Gary a visit, insisting she didn’t want trouble. Gary tried to keep the peace by offering her a beer. However, things quickly spiraled into dangerous territory. While Gary was in the toilet, Lou secretly sent herself a message from his phone to set him up. When Gary returned, Lou boldly made a move and tried to kiss him, only for him to jump back in horror. Feeling humiliated, Lou retaliated by threatening Gary with blackmail, forcing him to comply with her demands or she would tell Maria everything. Gary was torn, fearing Maria would believe they were having an affair.
THE DESPERATE HUNT: WHERE IS GARY, AND WHAT IS HIS FATE?
Maria tries to remain calm for Liam’s sake, reassuring him that Gary might have just mixed up his days or missed his train. But as soon as Liam turns away, Maria’s face reveals her own confusion and deep concern.
Eventually, Maria receives a brief message from Gary, saying he’s staying with a mate and will be home soon. But will Maria believe this vague text? And where is Gary really? Other spoilers even hint at a “cheating scandal confirmed” for Gary and that he “will pay,” further escalating concerns about his fate.
