Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) may be set to return to form in Coronation Street as she is on the brink of exposing Ken’s (William Roache) poisoner Evelyn Plummer (Claire Sweeney).
Having killed before and delivered revenge on many others, we would hate to be in Cassie’s shoes should the villain catch her out.
Cassie has been drugging Ken both in attempts to potentially swindle him but also keep him needing her care in a strange but toxic relationship.
In upcoming events, she starts to lose control the situation – step up Tracy?
Cassie makes the tea and slips some antihistamine into Ken’s cup. Adam and Alya call at No.1 to find Ken looking decidedly peaky.
Ken opens his bank account and is confused to see some unusual transactions and Tracy takes a look before confronting Cassie with a transaction for hair products and accusing her of stealing from Ken.
As Cassie struggles to explain, she retains her pull on ken, who believes she is innocent and even invites her to move in!
Ken, give yourself a shake, sir.
Later, when Ken reveals that Cassie will be moving in, Steve and Amy are horrified. When Cassie explains to Evelyn that she’s moving in with Ken because he needs round the clock care, Evelyn is left mildly suspicious.
The net is definitely closing in, so could history repeat? Fans are certainly suspicious that Tracy could take the ultimate revenge.
Discussing the storyline, Claire Sweeney said: ‘It’s Ken Barlow, he’s a national treasure!’, she said. ‘I’m going to be Public Enemy No 1! I think viewers are going to hate her. The funny thing is that they’ve just started to like her – they were finally warming to her – and then this happens.
‘In my head, playing her, I’m trying to find saving graces, but I don’t know if there will be any. I’m a Corrie fan and I’d be fuming watching this.
‘Already in the summer when I went on holiday to Majorca all the old dears were saying to me: “You leave Ken alone,”. “Don’t you be upsetting Ken now.” And that was before I’d done anything!’
Imagine how they feel now! Almost as raging as Tracy will be…
