Coronation Street has teased another week of shock drama on the cobbles, following the shock stabbing spree on the ITV soap last week.
The local restaurant Speed Daal was hit with a night of devastating violence, when far-right teen Blake entered the refugee drop in session with a knife – and stabbed Alya.
The scenes were so bloody they even prompted a raft of Ofcom complaints from ITV viewers, who were troubled by the racial violence on their screens.
ITV spoilers have now revealed that next week on the soap sees a planned drug deal in the bistro go off with a terrifying bang.
Meanwhile, Sean will be left fearing for his life – as Laurence's past finally comes to light.
Here is everything ITV viewers can expect on Coronation Street next week…
Horror gun siege amid Damon drug deals
Evil Damon again tries to do a drug drop at the bistro after he threatened Nick to keep quiet on the matter.
Next week on the ITV soap sees Nick call Damon and confirm that the drugs have been delivered.
In later scenes, two frightening masked men enter the bistro and pointing a gun at Ryan, demand that he hand over the drugs.
Ryan is understandably terrified at the scene, whilst Sam dives under a table and calls Nick.
In an even more concerning development, as Nick answers, a gunshot can be heard coming from the bistro.
Nick, Leanne and Damon race towards the bistro, fearing for Sam and Ryan’s lives amid the violent scenes.
The soap has only teased how the siege ends – so will everyone make it out safely?
Having been alerted to the gunshot the police arrive, Nick watches nervously as a handler arrives in the bistro with his sniffer dog. Is the game up?
The storyline continues on Wednesday, when Nick makes the right call after the shock gun siege.
In the scenes, Craig tells Leanne that the police force have arrested two men who they suspect were the gunmen.
Leanne calls Nick and begs him to get rid of the drugs and he finally starts to harden in his resolve to stick up for himself and the bistro, telling Damon to pick up the drugs or he will flush them down the toilet.
Having placed the holdall of drugs in the boot, Damon climbs into his car, but suddenly police sirens are heard. Will Damon make his getaway?
Laurence's past comes to light as Sean fears for life
Sean’s partner Laurence will finally see his true past come out, leaving Sean horrified as what really happened to his ex-wife is revealed.
Next week on the ITV soap, Eileen and Todd are determined to get to the bottom of what happened and they manage to track down Mitch the taxi driver to find out.
Mitch then reveals to the pair that he and Laurence were having an affair when his wife Lindsey ended up falling down the mountain.
However, Mitch tells them he suspects foul play and is convinced Laurence pushed her off the mountain.
Stunned, Eileen and Todd feel they have no choice but to tell Sean the news – but he is left more concerned when Laurence reveals that the pair of them are heading on a surprise mini-break involving mountains.
In the café the following day, Laurence tells Sean that there will be no phone signal in the village they're heading to as it's in the middle of nowhere – but how much danger will Sean find himself in?
Stephen plots against Carla
Meanwhile, as Stephen is still helping Sarah and her business partner Michael build their new empire, the secret killer gives them a list of retailers so they can think big with their designs.
Stephen, Michael and Sarah watch as Beth works on the new samples in unscheduled factory overtime, before Stephen shows potential client Rufus around the place.
But he then has to steer him away when factory boss Carla returns, responding to Rufus's questions by lying that Carla is his PA.
But when Rufus announces he'd like the exclusive rights to their products, Stephen's scheme is soon under threat when Carla's husband Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) gives Rufus a lift in his cab.
Rufus reveals he's there to do a deal with the factory, so how will Carla react when Peter mentions the encounter? Will she figure out what Stephen is up to?
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV.
