Coronation Street is set for another dramatic turn as Carla Connor (Alison King) finds herself on edge following the reappearance of her dangerous half-brother,
Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis). The gripping storyline, which has already seen Carla push Rob down the stairs in a desperate act of self-defense,
is far from over as he resurfaces—leaving her fearful of what he might do next.
Rob’s Escape and Bobby’s Betrayal
Rob Donovan, who had been serving time in prison, recently attempted to escape by offering to donate a kidney to Carla.
However, his plan was derailed when Carla uncovered his true intentions, leading to a violent confrontation in which she pushed him down a flight of stairs.
Despite the fall, Rob survived and managed to go on the run.
Since then, he has been secretly reaching out to his son, Bobby Crawford (Jack Carroll), for help. Bobby, unaware of the full extent of his father’s dangerous past, attempted to assist him, but his actions didn’t go unnoticed. Ryan Connor (Ryan Prescott) quickly caught Bobby out, leading to a heated confrontation with Carla, who was furious to learn that her young relative had been aiding a fugitive.
“Get out of my sight,” Carla snapped at Bobby, making it clear that his betrayal had cut deep. Meanwhile, Rob was seen hiding in an alleyway, furious at being exposed. He sent Bobby a chilling message, branding him a “traitor” after Ryan unexpectedly showed up to their secret meeting.
Carla Faces More Fear as Rob Moves Closer
In scenes set to air next Friday (March 7), Carla attempts to put the nightmare behind her and regain control of her life. Following her kidney transplant, she decides it’s time to return to work at Underworld. However, just as she starts to move forward, unsettling news puts her on high alert once again.
Betsy (Sydney Martin) unknowingly sends a shockwave through Carla when she points out a news report revealing that Rob has been sighted in Brighton. Upon hearing this, Carla admits she hopes he will be caught soon, eager to put an end to the ongoing threat he poses.
But just as she begins to feel some sense of relief, an ominous discovery shatters her peace. When Carla returns home later that day, she notices that her front door is already open. Panic sets in as she realizes someone might be inside.
Has Rob defied expectations and returned to Weatherfield? Could he be lying in wait for Carla, seeking revenge for her betrayal? With tensions rising, Carla is left wondering if her past has finally caught up with her in the most terrifying way possible.
A Possible Reunion for Eva Price?
While Carla faces a looming threat from Rob, Coronation Street fans have been treated to some exciting casting news. Reports suggest that Catherine Tyldesley is set to reprise her role as Eva Price after seven years away from the soap.
Eva, who left Weatherfield in 2018 following a dramatic custody battle over baby Susie, remains a fan favorite. Though details about her return are still under wraps, it has been confirmed that the actress will begin filming this summer, with her scenes expected to air later in the year.
Her comeback raises many questions. Will she be returning for a short visit, or does she have unfinished business in Weatherfield? Could her return bring complications for Carla, given their complex history?
What’s Next for Carla and Rob?
With Rob potentially lurking nearby, Carla’s worst fears may soon be realized. Will she find the strength to stand up to him once again, or could she be in serious danger? And if the police manage to track him down, will this finally mark the end of his reign of terror?
As Coronation Street continues to deliver gripping twists and turns, fans won’t want to miss the next chapter in Carla and Rob’s intense storyline. One thing is certain—life in Weatherfield is never quiet for long.
