Coronation Street fans have said a character is 'cursed' after they were left screaming at the TV over an error made my Stu Carpenter. The latest trip to the cobbles on Thursday night (January 26) saw the fallout from the stabbing horror which unfolded in Speed Dahl during Maria Connor's drop-in event.
There was terrifying chaos in the restaurant when Alya Nazir was stabbed by teenager Blake who had planned to attack Maria over her work as a councillor. Fans of the ITV soap watched as Blake appeared intent on causing damage as he live-streamed his visit to Maria's refugee drop in which was kindly hosted in Speed Dahl by Alya and her gran, Yasmeen.
It comes after both Maria and Alya become the target of an extremist group led by eco-warrior Griff Reynolds and his racist gang who groomed troubled teen Max Turner. And upon seeing the videos Max helped create for the terrifying gang, Blake decided to pull his own horrifying stunt.
