WHERE Are Carla & Lisa?! Carla Connor & Lisa Swain VANISH from Corrie — Just When Chaos Strikes
In one of Coronation Street’s most baffling twists of 2025, Carla Connor and Lisa Swain have mysteriously disappeared from Weatherfield just as Underworld becomes the epicenter of a terrifying siege. With chaos erupting back home and long-simmering tensions reaching boiling point, fans are left asking: Where on earth are Carla and Lisa?
The timing couldn’t be more bizarre. Mick Mis escapes and storms the factory — the very heart of Carla’s business empire — and yet, she’s nowhere to be found. Even more perplexing is the absence of Lisa Swain, a senior police officer who should be on the front lines during a citywide emergency. Instead, Sarah Platt casually reveals to concerned residents that the couple are simply “away on a break.” A break? While the factory is under siege? Fans aren’t buying it.
Social media erupted as the episode aired. “How can Carla be on holiday while her factory is under attack? This is so out of character,” one viewer tweeted. Another chimed in, “Lisa’s a cop, Carla owns the building — this isn’t just odd, it feels intentional.” And that’s where the speculation begins.
Viewers are now convinced that this sudden disappearance isn’t just sloppy writing — it’s part of a deeper storyline being quietly set up behind the scenes. Could Carla and Lisa be running from something more sinister? Or are they planning a major comeback with a twist no one sees coming?
Let’s rewind a bit. Carla and Lisa have been through emotional turmoil in the past year. Carla’s terrifying health crisis — a battle with sepsis and the need for a kidney transplant — brought her estranged brother Rob Donovan back into her life. That reunion turned deadly fast, with Rob launching a violent siege that nearly ended Carla’s life. Lisa saved her, but not without tragedy: her own daughter, Betsy, was accidentally shot in the process.
Since then, Carla and Lisa have tried to move on. There was even a marriage proposal — which Carla declined, not wanting love born from trauma. Still, the couple seemed to be healing, making plans to move in together and even seeking therapy. But that kind of peace rarely lasts long in Weatherfield.
Their disappearance during Underworld’s most dangerous moment hints that something bigger is brewing. Is Carla secretly planning to sell the factory? Has Lisa been pulled into a secret investigation? Or, in a darker twist, are they hiding from someone — or something — that’s yet to be revealed?
Meanwhile, back on the cobbles, the fallout continues. The siege at Underworld leaves employees shaken and fans outraged at the lack of leadership. With Carla gone, Sarah steps up — but clearly isn’t prepared for the chaos.
What’s certain is this: Carla Connor doesn’t walk away from a fight. And Lisa Swain doesn’t ignore danger. Their absence must mean something.
So, where are Carla and Lisa really? And when they return… what bombshell will they bring with them?
