Those who follow the ITV soap have been watching the pair closely
Coronation Street fans have predicted ‘something terrible’ is ahead after thinking they spotted a bit of ‘foreshadowing’ in scenes between Betsy Swain and Dylan Wilson.
Those who follow the ITV soap have been watching the pair closely after it was previously revealed by actors Sydney Martin and Liam McCheyne that they were set to be part of an upcoming ‘coming of age’ storyline.
Sydney has told Digital Spy that viewers can expect a mixture of emotions to unfold between the young couple. “Dylan and Betsy have been through a lot together,” she said. “There’s beautiful moments to come. They’re polar opposites; she’s this ticking time bomb that could go off at any time, and he’s quite grounded and sweet.

“That can create some quite funny scenes, because there’s that natural comedic element of them being so different, but also some beautiful ones. I’m also excited for Liam to get his chance to shine.” She later added: “I’ve been working hard, so I’m really excited for people to see it. It’s going to be a busy summer.”
During Monday’s (June 15) edition of Corrie, Betsy, Dylan and Brody Michaelis were seen heading to the Rovers Return. Sean Tully refused to serve them, aware that Brody is underage.
Not to be deterred, instead, the teens headed to the precinct, having picked up some cans and headed for the precinct. But when three rough lads approached and demanded that they hand over the cans they’ve bought, Betsy refused.
She ended up being thrown when the lads mentioned Mason Radcliffe, her former boyfriend, who was killed in a shocking knifecrime incident last year. As they persisted, Dylan ended up stepping up, telling the gang to leave Betsy alone.
Brody also ended up standing up to them, suggesting they were “all bark and no bite”. But it backfired as Brody called for Dylan and Betsy to run, before they were pursued by the three lads.
It was then, during the follow-up episode on Tuesday (June 16), that an emotional Betsy was seen speaking to Dylan, with the reminder about Mason’s tragic death hitting her hard. “Can I be honest, I think about Mason all the time. Sometimes I just can’t stop,” Betsy told Dylan, before he began to blame himself for having the knife to begin with.
While Betsy insisted it was not Dylan’s fault, he also assured Betsy that Mason “knew he was loved” before he died. Eventually, Betsy admitted: “I think it’s down to me… Try and move things forward. Focus on the future, people will love and care about.”
And while Corrie fans have thought Betsy could end up being in trouble as she plans to leave Weatherfield for fashion college in London, some think Dylan could be the one to find himself in jeopardy.
@TheConnorSwains said: “And there it is… the foreshadowing. As soon as a character decides it’s finally time to move on, you know something terrible is lurking around the corner, ready to alter their future forever. #Swarla #Corrie.” @KatieJukesy questioned: “What if Dylan gets stabbed by those lads? That brings Betsy’s feelings about Mason back full force. PTSD ting. #Corrie.”
@SophieH74610875 posted: “I think Dylan will get shot and that what makes Betsy not got London and links with the coming of age story line.” @Fake_TV_Chef added: “Wild theory: Everyone thinks Betsy’s in danger, but Dylan’s part of this story too. If he’s attacked and left wheelchair-bound since Sean’s flat has stairs, Dylan could move into No.6 for Betsy to care for him putting London on hold.”
