The battle for Lisa Swain’s (Vicky Myers) love reaches breaking point in Coronation Street when Becky Swain’s (Amy Cudden) scheming finally pushes Carla Connor (Alison King) back to the bottle.

Coronation Street has seen its fair share of bonkers over the years, but Becky Swain is in a league of her own.

Not content with faking her death to escape the wrath of Spanish gangsters, the devious ex-detective has made it her mission to split up our beloved #Swarla to win back her ex Lisa and daughter Betsy (Sydney Martin) – and if she shatters Carla’s heart in the process? All’s fair in love and Weatherfield!

So far, Becky’s played a crafty game to manipulate Lisa’s sympathies by making herself the victim and inveigling her way back into the home.

Tired of Lisa’s inability to see Becky’s true colours, a heartbroken Carla called time on their relationship and moved out. In spite of everything, Carla still loves Lisa and is determined to expose Becky for the plotting pound-shop Tracy Barlow she truly is.

She might just have a chance thanks to Kit Green (Jacob Roberts), the Cobbles’ resident ‘awesome police officer’ (that’s what his coffee mug says anyway). Kit’s been convinced that Becky has had something to do with the attack on corrupt cop Jeremy Costello (Daon Broni) ever since he walked in on her threatening his daughter.

Now he and Carla are coming dangerously close to the truth – that Costello’s involvement in faking Becky’s death is jeopardising her career. So when Costello tried to intimidate her into disappearing, Becky fought back and paid someone to put him in hospital. All they need is proof…

When Kit visits Costello in hospital, he is intrigued to find out from his wife that he was going to retire to the Lake District in September. He mentions this to Lisa and Becky, remarking that it’s odd how Costello never mentioned his plans to trade in the Cobbles for the Lakes. Whilst Lisa agrees, Kit is keen to clock Becky’s discomfort…

… and reports straight back to Carla, sharing his theory that Costello and Becky are in cahoots. But the only answers Carla’s seeking are at the bottom of a bottle.
