Coronation Street fans couldn't believe what they were seeing and hearing as it was revealed that Spider Nugent is working as an undercover police officer. In scenes aired on the ITV soap on Monday night (September 12), the returning character's real secret was finally outed when he was confronted by DS Swain.
Earlier in the episode, Corrie fans saw Spider, played by Martin Hancock, declared his love for Toyah Habeeb. The character, played by Georgia Taylor, had been left furious with her former flame when he revealed he was married. But during the latest trip to Weatherfield, he told her his marriage was over.
As they kissed on the balcony, agreeing to keep their relationship under wraps until after Toyah's murder trial, Imran's furious mum Saira was seen staring up at them. She was then seen telling DS Swain about Toyah's new relationship and when she asked for names, she told her that she didn't have his real name but that he's known as Spider.
