Coronation Street fans said they had 'so many questions' after watching Alya Nazir nearly get killed in a bomb explosion. Viewers of the ITV soap knew that Griff and his extremist gang had been planning something dreadful way before groomed protege Max Turner found himself caught up in a test of the explosive.
For months now Griff has been targeting Alya and her new Speed Daal waiter Daryan and clashing with councilor Maria Windass over her refugee project. He has also roped Max in to help with their propaganda videos but buying him a new top-quality laptop for all his editing.
And scenes aired last month showed just how dangerous Griff was as Max found himself in the hospital after the gang leader took his cronies - including undercover cop Spider Nugent - on a camping trip. Later, as they traveled down a road in the middle of nowhere, Max, who was sat in the back of the car, was caught in the crossfire when the bomb suddenly exploded.
