Special one-off Coronation Street episode to air amid death

Coronation Street is set to air the special episode tonight (February 16), with a glimpse into future events that will send shockwaves through Weatherfield.

The episode will open with a tense police interview featuring Betsy Swain, played by Sydney Martin, who is questioned about discovering a dead body.

She tells detectives the body was found on the day her mother, Lisa Swain, married Carla Connor.

5 potential victims for Corrie’s shocking flashforward episode revealed

Taking viewers into the future to April, the episode will then rewind to the present day, revealing a list of characters who could be at risk.

The five potential victims are: Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon), Theo Silverton (James Cartwright), Maggie Driscoll (Pauline McLynn), Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances Brown) and Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard).

Each character has been drawn into dark and dangerous plotlines, setting the stage for what could be a fatal outcome.

Megan Walsh finds herself increasingly anxious that her secret relationship with teenage student Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson Wale) will be exposed.

Complicating matters, Will was arrested on Christmas Day for attacking her boyfriend, Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard).

Megan’s growing paranoia that the truth could come out may be putting her in danger.

Maggie Driscoll is also at risk due to her decision to give Will a false alibi for the Christmas Day assault.

As the pressure builds, her involvement could put her directly in harm’s way.

Carl Webster is facing the consequences of letting his mother, Debbie (Sue Devaney), take the blame for the accident that killed Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank).

With guilt and family tensions bubbling beneath the surface, Carl’s storyline could be heading toward a tragic end.

Theo Silverton’s storyline has taken an even darker turn as his controlling relationship with Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) escalates when Todd is seen gripping a knife menacingly.
