Look who’s BACK!

CORONATION STREET

She’s BAAAAAACK! Yes, it’s the return of Bethany, who wastes no time getting her feet under Daniel’s duvet again. But what will Daisy find when she visits Daniel to try to patch things up with a New Year’s kiss? Please, not the revival of Sinéad’s dressing gown.

It’s clear Daniel has moved on, and Daisy is humiliated at realising he’s turned to his old flame. Well, less a flame than a fireball. Still, better that than Daisy the emotional arsonist.

Next stop, Sarah’s flat, where Sarah is thrilled to see her daughter. Er, hang on. Bethany got down and dirty with Daniel

before calling on her mum? Some things never change. Then it’s on to No 8, where a delighted Gail suggests they celebrate with a family lunch at Speed Daal. Their smiles don’t last long as Jenny stuns Gail, David and Sarah by telling them that Daniel slept with Bethany.

Bethany might not be Daisy’s only problem, when Jenny vetoes her special-offer ideas to boost custom at the pub. When Bethany sneeringly comments about how empty the place is, Daisy defiantly makes a sign offering a free drink with every hotpot purchased. Come on, how many hotpots did you see served the whole of last year? Half a dozen, tops? Ordered, yes, but served, no. Sounds like a huge con to me.

There’s another familiar face this New Year when Damon turns up again, keeping a beady eye on Sarah and Adam from afar. Next thing you know, Adam’s being followed and finds himself tied up in the back of a van. Oh, not again. The show really has been overdosing on Emmerdale. And why bring Damon back? Strolling into the Bistro, he asks Leanne and Nick for the money he gave Harvey to invest in the place. This isn’t just déjà vu; it’s 2023 all over again.

His return is at least good news for Ed, who is offered a job renovating a bar. Maybe, in doing the work, he’ll discover Aggie’s remains, because either she’s dead or she’s on the longest shift in hospital history.
