Coronation Street confirms who Lucy is and major Christina twist as new spoilers reveal what happens next

Coronation Street is no stranger to a twist or two but even by it’s own standards the latest is a jaw-dropper, with a big connection made between Christina Boyd (Amy Robbins) and newcomer Lucy Parkinson (Anya Dewin).

Lucy has been looked after by Sally and Tim Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor and Joe Duttine) following the suspicious death of mum Rachel Parkinson.

Her dad Richie (Nathan Sussex), Tim’s cousin, was arrested for murder, though it seems there is more to the tale than meets the eye, with Lucy sharing fears that she’s got ‘something bad inside’ her.

The last offering of the ITV soap saw her and Tim head to Shuttleworths, where Lucy crossed paths with Christina. A heated showdown ensued, with both characters getting off on the wrong foot.

Little did they know then what was about to come to light.

As George (Tony Maudsley) talked Christina through the ropes of her new job, she accessed the digital file for Rachel Parkinson – and went pale.

Subsequent scenes saw her flee the funeral parlour and get drunk in the Rovers, much to the concern of George, who took her back home to No.11 in a bid to find out what was the matter.

In emotional scenes, Christine revealed that Rachel Parkinson, Lucy’s mum, was her daughter.

Elsewhere, Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) – who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer – bonded with son Brody (Ryan Mulvey), who made it clear that he didn’t want to lose him when he’s only starting to get to know him.

For a first look at what tomorrow’s episode entails, here’s everything you need to know.

What happens next in Coronation Street? Spoilers for Thursday, September 24 episode

Following her revelation the night before, Christina opens up to George about her past – namely daughter Rachel. She is touched as he listens to her without judgement.

The question is: will she tell Lucy the truth? Will Lucy find out she’s got another relative living on the cobbles?

And if so, how will she react?

Lucy writes in her grief journal as Shanice watches on. Shanice offers some words of support, telling her that she hopes she can feel happy soon, which leaves Lucy touched.

Next week, Lucy and Christina cross paths once more – but how will it all pan out?

Elsewhere, Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) is dosed with the cold and she waves Ben Driscoll (Aaron McCusker) off as he heads with Susie to London for her audition.

Glenda (Jodie Prenger) isn’t pleased over Eva being unwell and, believing her to be milking it, she storms out. Feeling awful, Eva is forced to close the Rovers – and things go from bad to worse when she hears a concerning noise downstairs.

Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) can’t find his phone, with Nick (Ben Price) and Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor) concerned by his reaction when he throws a stapler at the wall, while Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan) puts his foot down where Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard) is concerned.
