While the residents of Coronation Street were still discussing the Driscoll family scandal, another shocking piece of news stunned the neighborhood: Carla Connor had vanished.

A strong, sharp, and powerful woman, Carla wasn’t the type to “leave without a word.”

But this time, she left home claiming she was “going on vacation to Lanzarote,” and then – she disappeared.

Initially, everyone thought Carla just needed some time to rest.

But when Peter discovered she hadn’t arrived at the hotel as planned, panic began to spread. Her phone was off, her social media was silent, and those who had seen Carla in the last week said she seemed uneasy, anxious, even afraid of something.

The police were notified, but they found no trace of her. Rumors spread faster than the Christmas wind – some said Carla had been kidnapped, others suspected she had run away due to debt or involvement in some illegal activity. Meanwhile, Peter spent sleepless nights scouring every corner of Weatherfield, asking every old friend he knew.

In The Rovers Return, Rita and Jenny discussed how Carla had a strange phone call with a man with a “Southern accent,” and how she disappeared just hours later. Some fans even speculated that Carla’s disappearance was related to the Driscoll family’s shady dealings – with Eva inadvertently mentioning an “old contract” that only Carla knew about.
