A Proposal Interrupted by Shadows

Happiness filled the air on the cobbles tonight as Lisa Swain stunned Carla Connor with a surprise proposal. Dressed in her police uniform, Lisa pulled up outside the factory with sirens blaring before dropping to one knee. In front of friends and colleagues, she declared her love and asked Carla to marry her.

Carla’s emotional “yes” sparked celebration as the couple shared their news with loved ones, starting with Roy Cropper at the café. Roy beamed with delight at the announcement, while Kit Green also offered his congratulations. But beneath the warm glow of romance, darker forces began to stir — and Lisa’s joy may soon be overshadowed by corruption and betrayal.

Kit’s Growing Suspicions

Kit Green has been quietly piecing together loose threads around Becky’s mysterious death. His instincts flared after Lisa mentioned Logan Radcliffe, who once pointed Carla toward a dead-end lead involving Tia Wardley. Something about Logan’s story never quite added up.

Kit dug deeper, phoning the prison where Logan was being held. He discovered Logan had been segregated for fighting not long after Carla’s visit, raising red flags about what he might be hiding. Convinced he was onto something, Kit continued connecting the dots, determined to uncover the truth.

But his late-night digging did not go unnoticed. DI Costello appeared at his desk, insisting Kit go home since it was after hours. The interruption was suspicious — and it only fueled Kit’s growing belief that someone within the force was hiding more than anyone realized.

The Chilling Revelation

Later, Kit caught up with Lisa at the Rovers Return, where she and Carla were raising a toast to their engagement. He pulled her aside, lowering his voice as he shared his startling conclusion: DI Costello could be corrupt.

Lisa, still glowing from her engagement and admittedly tipsy on prosecco, promised they would pick up the conversation the next day. But the weight of Kit’s words lingered, casting a shadow over her happiness. Could her investigation into Becky’s death have put her right in the line of fire?

Back at the station, the chilling truth surfaced. DI Costello made a secret phone call, revealing his awareness of Kit’s digging into Tia Wardley. His tone was cold, dismissive, and dangerous.

“Got a feeling DS Swain has been whispering in his ear,” Costello muttered. “She’s getting a bit too close for comfort. It’s okay — I’ll deal with Swain myself.”

With those words, Lisa’s future — both personal and professional — now hangs in the balance.

What This Means for Lisa and Carla

For now, Lisa is blissfully celebrating her engagement with Carla, unaware that a deadly threat is looming closer. But in Weatherfield, happiness rarely lasts without complication. The reveal of Costello’s corruption suggests that Lisa’s hunt for answers in Becky’s death will push her directly into danger.

Carla, who has finally found a moment of joy after so much heartache, may be left blindsided if Lisa becomes a target. Will she lose her fiancée just as they begin planning their future together?

As for Kit, his bravery could put him at risk as well. By following the evidence, he has marked himself as a problem for Costello — and if the corrupt officer feels cornered, there’s no telling how far he might go to protect himself.

The Road Ahead in Weatherfield

The tension is mounting, and fans should prepare for an explosive showdown. Will Lisa uncover the full truth before it’s too late? Will Kit pay the price for digging too deep? And most of all, can Carla and Lisa’s love survive when danger is already closing in around them?

Coronation Street has confirmed corruption at the heart of Becky’s mystery, and now the stakes couldn’t be higher. As Lisa edges closer to uncovering the truth, her happiness may come at the ultimate cost.
