An emotional and revealing Coronation Street episode is set to air, placing Kit Green right at the center of the drama in a special flashback-filled hour that will finally lift the lid on the haunting past he’s been hiding.
As Bernie grows increasingly concerned about Kit’s recent behavior, she pays him a visit, hoping he might finally open up. But instead of simple answers, viewers are taken on a gripping journey into Kit’s childhood. In a powerful series of flashbacks, we meet a much younger Kit—a troubled teen already brushing up against the law, setting the course for a difficult life ahead. Through these glimpses into his early years, we begin to understand what shaped Kit’s hardened personality, emotional walls, and murky moral compass.
To bring this complicated backstory to life, three younger actors step into the shoes of Kit, Mick, and Lou. Their performances help bridge the gap between the reckless choices of youth and the complicated adult relationships we see today. As the episode jumps between past and present, long-buried secrets are unearthed—secrets that have bound Kit, Mick, and Lou together for decades, for better or worse.
Meanwhile, the aftermath of the explosive fight between Gary and Mick continues to cause waves. Tensions escalate as Maria and Lou clash over whose husband is telling the truth. Each stands firmly by her partner, leading to a fierce war of words that only deepens the divide. With rumors flying and mistrust thick in the air, Gary and Maria decide it’s time to confront Kit directly. Accusing him of corruption and shielding Mick, they corner him—only for Kit to fire back with a biting counterattack. He turns the tables by painting Gary as the real aggressor, pointing out that Gary was wielding a bottle during the altercation.
Back at Kit’s flat, Bernie, now determined to get to the bottom of everything, lets herself in unannounced. She’s haunted by the photograph she found discarded in the bin—a photo that clearly holds deep personal meaning. Demanding answers, Bernie challenges Kit: why is he protecting Mick? What truth is he so desperate to keep buried?
Kit remains evasive, but viewers will learn more than Bernie ever could as the flashbacks peel back the layers of his character. We see moments of betrayal, childhood fear, and loyalty that walk a dangerous line. Kit, Mick, and Lou were once inseparable, but the decisions made in their youth—and the damage caused—continue to cast long shadows over their lives today.
Elsewhere, Mick and Lou try to turn the page by taking Brody out for a celebratory meal following his release from the Secure Training Centre (STC). But even as they toast to fresh starts, the ghosts of the past linger in the background, threatening to disrupt their newfound sense of peace.
This powerful episode doesn’t just explore Kit’s history—it reframes everything we thought we knew about his character. As pieces of the puzzle fall into place, viewers will be left wondering whether Kit is truly a man changed by his past… or someone still running from it.
With family loyalty, betrayal, and long-concealed truths all coming to a head, this flashback episode promises to be one of Coronation Street’s most riveting hours of drama yet.
