Next week’s episode of Coronation Street features a lot of violence, as evidenced by video snippets of Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney) being viciously abused by drug dealer Dean and Ryan Connor (Ryan Prescott) yelling at Carla (Alison King).
Even in the best (worst) of circumstances, Corrie is a tense place, but the forthcoming episodes feature some pretty significant outbursts.
Cassie is having trouble with her addiction and is in debt to Dean. And she is afraid when he gets really rude.
Ryan, meanwhile, is on edge all the time due to his steroid addiction. Carla’s well-intended attempt to assist with the online comments causes him to erupt, and Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) is forced to step in as a result.
Other tragic sequences involve Paul Foreman (Peter Ash), who collapses to the ground as his symptoms take hold, leaving Bryn alone.
