Coronation Street's Charlotte Jordan has said she is "overwhelmed" by the response to last night's dramatic episode.
The soap star is renowned for her role as Daisy Midgeley in the long-running ITV show. The character has endured a turbulent time in the Cobbles since she was targeted by a stalker named Justin.
The storyline reached its darkest point last night as Justin's obsession sparked him to commit a horrific acid attack on Daisy's wedding day. However, the attack did not go to plan as Ryan Connor saved Daisy in disturbing scenes in last night's show.
