Coronation Street fans have called out the show's 'audacity' as they think they have 'worked out' a huge affair twist. At the end of last year, viewers of the ITV soap were introduced to Damon, the father of Jacob Hay and also the brother of drug lord Harvey Gaskell.
He made a sudden appearance in his son's life, wanting to make amends with Jacob, who had escaped his life of drug crime for a new life with his girlfriend Amy Barlow on the cobbles. And while they were a bit suspicious of him it wasn't until earlier this month that they realised what he was really up to.
And in shock scenes aired on Friday (January 13), Corrie fans watched as Jacob was forced to leave Weatherfield, with his girlfriend and friends thinking he had gone back to his old ways, in a bid to keep Amy and himself safe after disposing of drugs Damon arranged to have sent to the Bistro.
