Coronation Street Spoiler: Carla Connor: The Fall of the Underworld Queen – When the Strongest Man Kneels Before Emotion
Carla Connor – the name that once made Weatherfield respect her – is now on the brink.
Not only is her career in disarray, but her heart is also broken by the only person she trusted: Lisa Swain.
Lisa, a dedicated police officer, used to be Carla’s spiritual support.
But when the Joel Deering case exploded, Lisa began to distance herself.

She was tied between the law and her emotions, making Carla – who was strong – feel weak for the first time.
A leaked scene shows Carla trying to call Lisa in the night, her voice trembling: “I don’t think I can take it anymore.” Lisa answers the phone, but only coldly replies: “I’m sorry, Carla, this is no longer your business.” That sentence is like the final stab, pushing Carla into darkness.

Viewers are asking: is this the first time Coronation Street has portrayed Carla Connor as… completely out of control? She’s no longer the sharp leader, but a woman cornered, both heartbroken by love and suspected of crime.
And what’s more terrifying: Carla is beginning to believe that someone is setting her up – possibly from within Lisa’s team.
