About this deal

When I was growing up, bullying took place in the school playground, in the school corridor and you could at least escape that when you went home but of course now it follows you into your home, into your bedroom, wherever you go in the form of online abuse so we wanted to tell an updated bullying story," Iain explained. They're very easily matched now. Bethany might once have seemed like a younger woman or a girl but she's very much more a woman now and on Daisy's level. So it's a really heavyweight tussle between these two women which I'm really looking forward to seeing more of. Although it's no secret that Dom can't be trusted, Stu's methods in dealing with the situation are threatening to make matters much worse. There will be no Coronation Street on Friday, January 6 as ITV1 will be showing live football coverage of the Manchester United vs Everton game. Former Weatherfield County footballer Tommy Orpington was recently announced as a surprise return for the Christmas period.

But it is set to have somewhat of a positive outcome. "The outcomes for the people in the worst of it will be good and when they seek help they will receive it and they will then be on a positive trajectory going forward. In the middle of that, before we get to the rehabilitation stage, it's a real in-depth exploration of teenage mental health." And Paul Foreman's heartbreaking last ChristmasIain said: "Since leaving football, Tommy's made some bad business investments, not least of which was opening a Tommy Orpington-themed gourmet burger restaurant. They've all gone belly up, his wife's left him and he's now had to return to the trade he had when he was a non-league footballer which was painter and decorator." Narrated by beloved former cast member, Sue Johnston, fans will hear from cast past and present who bring life to the characters with their memories and reflections of some of the biggest moments on the Street. We wanted to make it as far-reaching and widely impactful as possible so it's as much about Gary and Maria and Shaun and Eileen and George, who are kind of Dylan's defacto grandparents, as it is about the kids." I think it's fair to say, in the course of that, Stu will seriously endanger his relationship with Yasmeen. After Geoff and Sharif, Yasmeen has profound trust issues when it comes to men – and Stu's behaviour around this story will give her, at the very least, serious pause for thought. The reunited couple get engaged again in the build-up to Christmas, but Tyrone is wasting no time before getting Fiz down the aisle.

Tyrone becomes determined to have a Christmas Day to remember – and spare Fiz the stress of a long and drawn-out engagement. He secretly books the ceremony for December 25 and takes on all the planning himself, covering everything from the dress, to the venue and the party. Peter Ash, who plays Paul, also recently told Good Morning Britain: "It's quite a sad Christmas really, for Paul. He finds out that he's got six to 12 months left, so it's looking likely this could be his last Christmas.Iain MacLeod teased: "You'll see Tommy again on Christmas Day! Since leaving football, he has made some bad business investments, including opening a Tommy Orpington-themed gourmet burger restaurant. They've all gone belly up! A wonderful Christmas gift full of nostalgia and charm, perfect for fans of Coronation Street and readers who love Fiction set in Wartime. There are a few explosive Peter Barlow-style outbursts that start to bring to Carla's attention that he's really not okay and they find themselves at this enormous fork in the road where they love each other but perhaps their happiness is no longer reliant on each other which is to say maybe they'll start to wonder if they'll be happier somewhere or in some other situation somewhere else." It's official – Tyrone and Fiz will be taking centre stage in the main festive storyline this year. The arrival of the new character coincides with a difficult time for Ed, who has fallen into a downward spiral with his gambling addiction.

Speaking this week about Corrie's Christmas episodes, show producer Iain MacLeod told Digital Spy and other media: "The episodes are fun, warm and family-orientated. Corrie has historically always done that. But he'll have to contend with the fact these two plans might not be compatible. Can he have his revenge and also have Sarah? The answer might well be no."

Ex- Emmerdale and Hollyoaks star Matt Milburn will be reprising the role of guest character Tommy, who was last seen in the show in 2021 when he retired from his sporting career. From betrayals and break ups to weddings, babies and pub singalongs, viewers will be entertained and moved with memories of Christmases past. Sadly, Fiz becomes downbeat when she wrongly thinks that she and Tyrone don't have anything special planned for Christmas Day. When Tyrone heads down the stairs with Hope and Ruby, ready to put his plans into motion, Fiz is nowhere to be seen. A 30-minute edition has also been scheduled in for New Year's Eve, although there won't be a New Year's Day special this time.

A few years ago, we went a little bit Die Hard with Gary, Shona and the funfair. I absolutely loved that. It allowed us to do a thriller-ish conceptual trailer for it, so it was all very exciting. It puts her in a massive amount of legal hot water, to the extent that there's every likelihood that she's not going to be present for what will be Paul's last Christmas – and the family might not get to be together for one last festive moment." Revealing how this story builds up to Christmas, Iain MacLeod recently said: "On the surface it's very fun with the addition of the dad, but underneath it all, Ed's problems are spiralling and mounting.

He added: "It's absolutely heartbreaking... It's heartbreaking in terms of the reaction of the children on the receiving end of the bullying and the feelings of impotence the parents feel as they know pretty damn well what's going on but they can't penetrate this wall of secrecy that surrounds it because the victims don't want to speak up through fear if making it worse.
