Coronation Street’s Betsy Swain will have a terrifying experience while home alone as the threat from Rob Donovan looms.

Viewers will know that Rob, a dangerous killer who was serving a prison sentence for murdering Tina McIntyre, left prison to donate a kidney to his sister Carla Connor.

Rob escaped from the hospital before he could be locked up again and is now a wanted criminal.

Last week, DS Lisa Swain was terrified to discover her daughter Betsy hadn’t been home and, after Betsy returned, Lisa explained it isn’t safe with Rob on the loose.

A dismissive Betsy headed back out despite her mother’s warning. In a dangerous encounter Betsy was followed by Rob who chased the terrified teen.

In scenes that will air on Monday, March 17, Lisa reveals that Betsy is too scared to leave the flat while Rob is on the loose.

Caring Carla offers to take the day off and look after her. When a crisis occurs at the factory, Carla has to head out, leaving Betsy all alone in the flat

Scared and on her own, Betsy is terrified when the door buzzer goes – is it a false alarm or is she right to be scared?

Meanwhile, Rob is also set to hassle his ex-girlfriend Tracy McDonald in next week’s scenes as the fugitive invites Tracy to run away with him.

Tracy actor Kate Ford recently opened up about Rob’s “crazy” plan, revealing that Tracy is sceptical when she comes face-to-face with Rob.

“Tracy can’t believe it, but at the same time she’s still got a bit of a soft spot for him, so she does let him come into the house without much persuasion,” Ford said.

“But she is shocked to see him and she can’t believe it. She doesn’t want to get involved in it, but she just feels bad that she’s not helping him because at a time they were in love.”
