The Rovers Return has been the very pulse of Weatherfield in Coronation Street — the spot where neighbors meet, secrets are shared, and tales are told. But the favorite pub is in for a huge shake-up over the next few days. An impending sale, a bitter treachery, and a years–old grudge are set to collide, and the fate of the Rovers hangs in the balance.
Carla’s Financial Burden Forces a Harsh Choice
Carla is prepared to say goodbye to the pub, not out of want, but because she has to. The cost of paying back Lisa Swain, who financed Roy’s kidney transplant, has forced Carla into a situation where she has no other option but to consider selling The Rovers Return to pay her debt.
In the upcoming episodes, Carla opens up to Jenny Connor, the pub‘s longtime manager, about selling it off. The news shakes Jenny to the core. She‘s heartbroken at the prospect of losing the business she has given her heart to.
Panicked at keeping the pub from a stranger‘s grasp, she begs Carla to allow her first refusal in favor of buying it herself. But Carla, who is resolute in her intentions, may not care.
Jenny’s emotional entreaty may not be enough to prevent the sale. Meanwhile, Jenny has no idea that her misery doesn’t start with Carla. Closer to home, a more intimate betrayal is unfolding.
Coronation Street: Daisy and Christina’s Cruel Game Revealed
As Jenny struggles to salvage her favorite pub, she is in the dark about the wicked deception someone is planning against her. Daisy Midgeley, her former stepdaughter, has allied with her mother, Christina, in a sinister plan to embarrass Jenny.
The pair pretended to be a man, Dominic, an imaginary romantic partner, to keep Jenny on hold. Jenny recently got a package with a bottle of Champagne, allegedly from Dominic‘s vineyard. She is over the moon, believing the elusive man exists and is keen on her. Unknown to her, Daisy and Christina are behind the trick, getting vicarious pleasure from watching her fall into their trap.
Amy Robbins, who portrays Christina, recently chatted with Digital Spy and other media. She provided insight into the motivation for the vicious charade. She explained that Daisy was extremely upset with Jenny, especially over the £60,000 amount Jenny had claimed. That money was from shares Daisy‘s father—Jenny‘s former husband—had invested in Jenny’s name during their marriage.
As Jenny struggles to keep The Rovers in business, she doesn‘t know that her demise might already be underway — and from individuals she used to trust. Even a behind-the-scenes picture posted last month by Colson Smith featured a “For Sale“ sign in front of The Rovers. So, Carla‘s scheme might already be underway. Can Jenny rescue the Rovers and herself from betrayal, or will she lose everything? Only the upcoming Coronation Street spoilers can reveal.
