It puts her in a massive amount of legal hot water, to the extent that there's every likelihood that she's not going to be present for what will be Paul's last Christmas – and the family might not get to be together for one last festive moment." Iain revealed that Evelyn is set to get herself a new four-legged companion. But it's not going to come without trouble. "Evelyn makes herself a bit of an enemy of a fella she sees mistreating his dog and it starts with a small exchange where they cross paths at the precinct and some cross words are exchanged," he said.
Following his Motor Neurone Disease diagnosis earlier this year, Paul Foreman will be facing his last festive season as his condition progresses. But he'll also have to deal with another catastrophe. There will be no Coronation Street on Friday, January 6 as ITV1 will be showing live football coverage of the Manchester United vs Everton game. Bernie is due to face serious repercussions for her recent involvement in selling stolen goods. After she pleads guilty in court, Bernie is told that it's highly likely she'll receive a custodial sentence and miss Christmas on the cobbles. It's official – Tyrone and Fiz will be taking centre stage in the main festive storyline this year.It's not going to stay closed for that long. In fact, it reopens on New Year's Eve," Iain revealed. "The interesting thing about it is the circumstances of it becoming open again are all tied up with Stephen Reid's legacy and somebody will do something that is, at best, naughty and, at worst, slightly criminal to get their hands on the keys to the pub and reopen it. There are a few explosive Peter Barlow-style outbursts that start to bring to Carla's attention that he's really not okay and they find themselves at this enormous fork in the road where they love each other but perhaps their happiness is no longer reliant on each other which is to say maybe they'll start to wonder if they'll be happier somewhere or in some other situation somewhere else." From betrayals and break ups to weddings, babies and pub singalongs, viewers will be entertained and moved with memories of Christmases past. But it is set to have somewhat of a positive outcome. "The outcomes for the people in the worst of it will be good and when they seek help they will receive it and they will then be on a positive trajectory going forward. In the middle of that, before we get to the rehabilitation stage, it's a real in-depth exploration of teenage mental health." And Paul Foreman's heartbreaking last Christmas
It was revealed earlier this month that Carla will get an unexpected Christmas present this festive season in the shape of a surprise family member - played by a familiar face. Iain MacLeod recently said: "It's incredibly poignant. Stu makes some incredibly bad decisions in the course of the story, fully believing that he's right. But he makes a total hash of things. A wonderful Christmas gift full of nostalgia and charm, perfect for fans of Coronation Street and readers who love Fiction set in Wartime. Peter Ash, who plays Paul, also recently told Good Morning Britain: "It's quite a sad Christmas really, for Paul. He finds out that he's got six to 12 months left, so it's looking likely this could be his last Christmas.Ex- Emmerdale and Hollyoaks star Matt Milburn will be reprising the role of guest character Tommy, who was last seen in the show in 2021 when he retired from his sporting career. Going under her married name of Elsie Tanner, she and Arnold move in to No.11 Coronation Street in 1939 as war breaks out. Her cheeky self-confidence immediately puts her at loggerheads with local busy-body Ena Sharples and Annie Walker, landlady of the Rovers Return. Ed will feel like he's let himself down in the worst conceivable way. I think the viewers will find it very sad. This man has been driven to a point of desperation, but it's very nuanced and very multi-layered.
He added: "It's absolutely heartbreaking... It's heartbreaking in terms of the reaction of the children on the receiving end of the bullying and the feelings of impotence the parents feel as they know pretty damn well what's going on but they can't penetrate this wall of secrecy that surrounds it because the victims don't want to speak up through fear if making it worse. So it will reopen but it will be based on this slightly shaky foundation of a criminal act shall we say... We didn't want it to open up again like nothing had happened. We wanted it to open up with this buried bomb underneath it that we'll explode later next year."Tyrone becomes determined to have a Christmas Day to remember – and spare Fiz the stress of a long and drawn-out engagement. He secretly books the ceremony for December 25 and takes on all the planning himself, covering everything from the dress, to the venue and the party. The reunited couple get engaged again in the build-up to Christmas, but Tyrone is wasting no time before getting Fiz down the aisle. Iain MacLeod teased: "You'll see Tommy again on Christmas Day! Since leaving football, he has made some bad business investments, including opening a Tommy Orpington-themed gourmet burger restaurant. They've all gone belly up! The arrival of the new character coincides with a difficult time for Ed, who has fallen into a downward spiral with his gambling addiction.
Iain MacLeod recently warned: "This Christmas, [a] catastrophe arises from Bernie and her historical involvement with Shelly's slightly dubious online scamming.
It drives, particularly Gary and Maris' characters, into extreme territory in terms of their emotional reaction to what they believe is happening and it's desperately sad."
