It's not unusual for Coronation Street fans' theories to become reality and their latest prediction would certainly rock the cobbles. During Monday night's trip to Weatherfield, viewers watched as Maria Windass pressed on with her campaign to win a place on the local council and continue her clean air mission.
However, she was coming up against stiff competition as Bernard Barnes as threatened to derail her campaign by turning up to her tree planting with two Weatherfield County footballers - including Maria's neighbour James Bailey. But after a chat with Phill Whittaker, the boyfriend of Fiz Stape who happens to work for the council, she managed to get the information she needed to turn the campaign on its head.
Phill managed to turn it around for Maria as he secretly got his hands on a report that revealed the council have been covering up the dangers of local air pollution. Armed with all the information, Maria gatecrashed Bernard's chat with a journalist and handed her the damning report revealing it came off the back of her speaking to a whistleblower.
