Next week on Coronation Street, from May 26th to 30th, 2025, the drama ramps up with explosive confrontations, long-lost faces resurfacing, and deeply buried secrets threatening to come to light.

First, Brody Mis finds himself at the center of chaos. After receiving a suspicious message from his father, Mick, who insists he’s been framed by the police, Brody breaks into Kit Green’s flat, convinced of a conspiracy. But Kit remains composed, calmly explaining that the evidence doesn’t support Mick’s claims and even suggests Mick has a violent past. Tensions reach a boiling point when Brody violently shoves Kit into the wall before fleeing. Things only escalate when Kit later confronts Bernie, furious that she’s providing Brody with an alibi. Bernie insists on protecting Brody, calling him family—a sentiment that clearly strikes a chord with Kit. In a shocking confession, Kit reveals to Sarah that he once had a relationship with Louie, which raises the possibility that Brody might actually be his son. Trying to make peace, Kit offers Brody a deal: he’ll drop the burglary charge if Brody stays out of trouble and avoids his father’s dark path. Confused and emotional, Brody turns to Bernie, demanding the truth about his parentage.

Meanwhile, Kit’s dark side becomes even more dangerous. Inside his prison cell, Mick is discovered brutally beaten. Though Kit tells Sarah that Mick’s court hearing is coming up and expects him to plead guilty, Lou’s prison visit uncovers a horrifying twist. Mick confides that Kit orchestrated the attack and warned of further violence if he doesn’t confess. Despite this threat, Mick shocks everyone by pleading not guilty. While Brody celebrates the decision, Lou keeps quiet about the cost Mick may pay for defying Kit. Outside the prison drama, Lou loses her job with Maria Connor and crosses paths with Maria’s husband, Gary Windass. An awkward but heartfelt conversation reveals their shared history of hardship, and Gary sympathetically buys her a drink—something that’s bound to ruffle Maria’s feathers when she finds out.

Over in Weatherfield, Eileen Grimshaw is devastated by grief following Julie Karp’s death. Matters worsen when she admits to Brian and George that the drugs found in Julie’s system were actually intended for her. Trying to clear Julie’s name, she finds herself overwhelmed when Brian’s casual remark triggers a breakdown, leading her to ban him from the funeral. George, struggling to comfort Eileen without worsening things, eventually seeks advice from Todd. During the funeral, Eileen gives Brian a letter Julie had written, but instead of offering closure, it raises suspicions—especially when it’s revealed that Eileen is the sole beneficiary of Julie’s life insurance. Despite her insistence that she only learned this after Julie’s death, whispers begin to spread, and Tracy accuses her of murder-for-money, causing Eileen to snap. At the wake, tensions explode, and Eileen lashes out at George. In a surprising turn, George proposes to Eileen during a tribute game in Julie’s honor. But before she can answer, Jason Grimshaw returns—completely unannounced—at the worst possible time. His unexpected appearance adds even more confusion. Why now? What’s he hiding?

Elsewhere, Theo Silverton faces a personal reckoning. Feeling abandoned when his children skip a planned breakfast, Theo’s mood takes a nosedive. Things get worse when he sees something on Todd’s phone that deeply unsettles him. During Julie’s wake, a man named Noah appears and waves at Billy, causing Theo to flee. Outside, he confides in Todd that Noah was part of his past trauma—specifically involving conversion therapy. Todd is horrified, but it remains to be seen whether he’ll expose Noah or if Billy even knows who he really is.

Meanwhile, things take a dangerous turn with Carl Webster. Ronnie Bailey tries to keep things smooth as he introduces Debbie Webster to his ex, Fiona. Debbie plays it cool, but behind the scenes, she’s scheming. As tensions rise, Carl aggressively warns Ronnie to keep his distance. Fiona later offers Ronnie a shady job flogging a stolen car. Though he initially tries, Ronnie backs out when he learns the potential buyer just lost his wife. Carl quickly catches on and grows suspicious. Taking control of the situation, he secures a job at Webster’s Garage. With Kevin and Abby away, Carl takes full advantage, arranging for a dodgy vehicle delivery that could spell disaster.

Lastly, Carla Connor faces an emotional crossroads. After a heart-to-heart with Lisa Swain about finding happiness amidst their chaotic lives, Carla is left questioning the depth of Lisa’s feelings. Though Lisa’s words seemed sincere, Carla can’t shake the feeling that something is left unsaid. Could this be the beginning of a new chapter for them, or is Carla sensing trouble ahead?

With shocking returns, emotional reckonings, and rising tensions on all fronts, next week on Coronation Street promises to be a rollercoaster of revelations, confrontations, and possibly irreversible decisions. Buckle up, because the cobbles are about to shake like never before.
