Corrie praised for 'perfect' scenes as Amy reveals she was raped as fans 'shocked' by Tracy's reaction

Coronation fans heaped praise on the show over more emotional scenes in Wednesday night's episode (Match 29). Viewers were moved to see teen Amy Barlow tell her mum Tracy that she had been raped by her former friend Aaron Sandford.

Earlier this month the flatmates shared a kiss in the ITV soap after Aaron was on the rocks with his girlfriend Summer Spellman. Later after a celebration for his promotion as mechanic the pair ended up drinking together back at their flat.
