November has no subplots — all the pieces are slowly coming together in a giant circle of drama.

Todd is being manipulated by Theo;

Becky plots revenge against Carla;

David and Shona face life and death;

Maggie is about to be exposed. And it all collides in unexpected ways.

Todd may be a witness to Becky’s plot; Maggie may be involved with the Platt family through hospital bills; and Shona and Becky — two women with different wounds — will be pushed into the same tragedy. Each character is a domino; if one falls, the whole cobblestone street will collapse.

The director describes this as “a season of breakdown and rebirth.” Everyone has a chance at salvation, but at a high price. Every small decision, every careless word, can become the spark that ignites tragedy.

Coronation Street is at its most intense point of the year: no one is safe, no one is innocent. And it looks like Weatherfield will never be the same after November.
