In tonight’s Coronation Street (Wednesday, December 10), Carla Connor’s master plan to catch Becky Swain out spectacularly blew up in her face.
Carla tried to secretly record Becky to expose her games… but instead, the whole thing unravelled, leaving Lisa furious and telling both of them to take their drama elsewhere.
And while Carla’s licking her wounds, Becky’s far from finished. She’s ready to carry out a revenge plan that’s about to get a whole lot darker.
Carla took on Becky in Coronation Street
Tonight on the cobbles, Carla had zero interest in hearing another peep about Becky and Lisa’s cosy Christmas plans. She escaped to the factory and cracked open the scotch instead.
Kit popped by with news about Costello – apparently the bloke was on the brink of retirement before the attack – and gave Carla a pep talk to stick with their plan to expose Becky. After leaving, he ‘accidentally’ crossed paths with Becky and asked her to send Lisa to the factory, where Carla was supposedly drowning in whisky.
Becky, naturally, ignored the request and marched to Carla herself, smugly declaring she fully intended to win Lisa back, whatever it took.
Big mistake. Carla wasn’t drunk at all. She’d been recording the whole thing. She stormed into No.6 and triumphantly played the audio for Lisa and Betsy.
But instead of applauding Carla, Lisa snapped. She’d had enough of both of them and their petty, exhausting war.
Carla then told Becky that she was ‘stubborn’ and wouldn’t be phased by this setback. Visiting Costello at the hospital, Carla then took out a pad and pen and begged him to help her find evidence that Becky was the one behind his attack.
Costello kept saying the words ‘hill’ and ‘rhubarb,’ which really puzzled Carla. Deciding that she was nowhere nearer to bringing down Becky, Carla then told Kit that she was giving up. Becky had won.

While Becky whispers about reigniting their old flame, Lisa’s actually texting Carla, confessing she still loves her.
Kit drops by Costello’s room, reveals he’s found the flat, and Becky later slinks out of the en suite thanking him for keeping shtum.
