Coronation Street Spoiler: “Carla Connor is tied up and betrayed – Becky returns as the villain, playing a dangerous game of usurpation”
If there were a title for “the most suffering female lead in Corrie,” Carla Connor would undoubtedly be at the top.
But this time, she faces a nightmare worse than any of her previous failed marriages: being kidnapped and held captive by someone who used to be her lover’s friend.
In the special episode aired on ITVX, viewers see Becky – appearing like a ghost from the past – coldly and terrifyingly manipulating everything.
She uses Carla’s phone to send fake breakup messages to Lisa, making DS Swain believe Carla left because she was fed up.

Meanwhile, Carla herself is tied up, gagged, and locked in a closet, struggling desperately.
Becky doesn’t just want revenge – she wants to replace Carla in Lisa’s life. In a shocking scene, Becky gently kisses Lisa in the dim yellow light, then says they can “start over.” But behind those tender words lies a sick plan: Becky wants to take Lisa and their daughter, Betsy, to Spain to live anonymously, so the three of them can “start anew”—while Carla remains trapped in the house, unnoticed.

The episode’s final scene shows Becky slamming shut a closet door, her eyes filled with unreadable emotions. The atmosphere is so heavy that viewers can feel Carla’s desperate breath emanating from the darkness. Those moments caused a social media frenzy, with thousands of fans discussing whether Becky could be the most dangerous villain Corrie has ever had. The question now is: Will Carla escape before Corriedale unfolds—or will she be the first victim in a series of tragedies?
