Fiz brings down Ross in new Coronation Street video | Soaps

With Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney) disappeared in mysterious circumstances, Ross Wilkes (Ian Burfield) is Coronation Street’s new King of Villains. But Fiz Dobbs (Jennie McAlpine) is about to knock him off his throne

Corrie fans said a tearful goodbye to Cassie last after she lost everything when her plan to get rid of Ross spectacularly backfired. Ross caught onto her plan to drug his smoothie to get him out of her life for good.

Her plan to make Ross fail a mandatory drug test for a new job by spiking his smoothy ended in tears when Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) drank it instead, resulting in immediate hospitalisation.

In that moment, Cassie lost everything that mattered to her on the Cobbles: her boyfriend  Steve McDonald  (Simon Gregson), her son  Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) and her grandkids.

After choking out a tear-jerking farewell, Cassie was hoofing it out of town when Ross offered her a lift. With no option, Cassie got in his car.

That’s when things got dark.

The subject of their past came up – specifically, how Ross took advantage of a fifteen year old Cassie and paid her for sex, resulting in her falling pregnant with Tyrone. Growing angry, Ross put his foot on the pedal and sped off with a terrified Cassie in the passenger seat.

That was the last we saw of Cassie leaving viewers fearing that she’d been murdered.

Ross might have Tyrone and his family fooled, but Fiz is onto his little game. She confronted Ross with her suspicions last Tuesday in the Rovers’, putting her cards firmly on the table. Fiz knows he lied to Steve about not seeing Cassie before she left, and doesn’t know why he acted all surprised to hear that she’d gone. Although she hasn’t got enough evidence to put all the pieces together just left, Fiz left Ross rattled with a firm warning.

‘If you put one foot out of line, you’re going to be back in Warrington before you know what’s hit you.’

I literally cannot think of a more scary threat.

It seems Fiz might have good reason to make good on her threat in this week’s trip to Coronation Street, where Ross starts to seem shadier than ever.

When Hope Stape (Isabella Flanagan) finds the photo that Fiz gave Cassie in his wallet, Ross is under pressure to make his excuses in front of Tyrone.

He claims that she threw it at him as he was getting out the car, declaring that she’d had a bellyful of the lot of them. While Tyrone grunts that the feeling is mutual, Ross has seemingly shut down his son’s suspicions.

By the look on Fiz’s face however, she smell a rat.

Will she discover what Ross did to Cassie?
