Coronation Street has revealed a first look at next week’s big episodes – as high drama involving a stolen car looks set to change the lives of several characters.

As Betsy Swain celebrates her 18^th birthday, she finds herself caught up in the chaos surrounding Carl Webster’s criminal schemes.

After arguing with her mum Lisa on her big day, a tipsy and emotional Betsy ends up leaving her an apologetic voice note as she walks through the Weatherfield Precinct.

Betsy adds that she needs some space, but she’s soon distracted as a stolen vehicle speeds towards her.

With Betsy bracing herself for impact, there’s a terrifying scream…

Hit play below for a first look at the scene from Monday’s episode (8 September).

Meanwhile, in follow-up scenes on Friday (12 September), mastermind Carl receives a call from Dylan Wilson while spending time with his secret lover Abi Webster.

The dodgy mechanic tries to make excuses for why Dylan would be calling, but Abi isn’t buying it and demands answers.

Carl is forced to admit that Dylan and Brody Michaelis have both been stealing cars for him. Can Abi really let this go?

Speaking recently about Betsy’s storyline, Sydney Martin – who plays her – commented: “I think it’s the wake-up call that she needs her mum, she needs Carla, she needs Ryan, and she needs this family unit. Although grief is such a horrible emotion, you can rely on the people around you, it doesn’t make you weak, it doesn’t make you a child.

“She needs to see they’re not trying to treat her like a child, they’re just trying to understand her. Just before the crash it was her mum that she was reaching for, it was her mum that she was leaving a voicemail for.

“She is grateful to her mum, and for Carla for stepping into this motherly role now. This is a wake up call that life can be taken away in a split second.”
