Coronation Street character to make dramatic return to Weatherfield
There's violent scenes ahead on ITV soap Coronation Street next week, as one character makes a return to the cobbles after being locked up leading to a showdown with a teen
There's a comeback on Coronation Street next week as someone returns to the cobbles after months away.
But the return soon leads to drama, and it's not good news for one troubled teen. Dylan Wilson is heading back to the show according to new spoilers and images.
Soon a confrontation takes place with fellow teen Brody Michaelis, who was in the STC with Dylan. Brody caused hell for the character, having him attacked and trying to blackmail him and his father Sean Tully into smuggling things into the unit.
When Sean decided to grass up Brody he got attacked by Brody's father Mick Michaelis. He gave Dylan such a hard time that it seems there's no forgiving him.
Next week on the ITV soap Dylan makes it clear exactly what he thinks of the teen, and soon there's a showdown. Soon Betsy Swain is caught up in things after her own drama with Brody days earlier.
Ahead of Dylan returning home, months after he was sentenced to time away in the STC for possessing the knife used to kill Mason Radcliffe, his dad is concerned. He warns Brody's mother Lou that his son will be home and he doesn't want any more trouble from Brody.
As the day arrives, he wants to celebrate his son coming home with lunch at The Bistro. Dylan isn't keen though and chooses the café instead, only for Brody to walk in.
Sean tells Dylan not to worry and that he will protect him from Brody. Dylan isn't concerned though and instead tells his dad that Brody is the one who needs to watch out.
He later follows Brody to the ginnel, but what does he have planned and will he take revenge? Later in the week the pair come to blows over Betsy.
Sean is disheartened when Dylan is dismissive over returning to college. As Dylan heads out, he comes across Brody laying into Betsy after she shopped him to the police.
As he confronts her he steps towards her, spotted by Dylan. Dylan races over to protect her, grabbing Brody and the pair get into a scuffle.
How far will Dylan go though? Daniel Osbourne happens to see the commotion and heads over to intervene, while Betsy doesn't look impressed with Dylan's attempt to help her.
The return comes amid a double exit, with a third teased. Next week Eileen and Jason Grimshaw bow out of the soap, with George Shuttleworth's exit also teased.
It follows the death of Craig Tinker last week, with actor Colson Smith's final scenes on the soap airing. Soon to follow him are Brody's parents Mick and Lou, with their time on the show only planned to be short.
Other recent exits have included Gail Platt, Daisy Midgeley, Mason and Yasmeen Nazir. Sue Cleaver will bow out as Eileen next Friday having been on the ITV soap for 25 years.

Love Island Shake Up: New Rules As Execs Admit Show Has Got 'Boring'
Love Island is finally back on our screens for the summer, and if that's not exciting enough, the hit reality show celebrates its 10th birthday this year. Yep, it really has been ten years of watching glamorous singles live it up in the sun while trying to find love, and the Love Island season 12 cast certainly looks set to bring all the drama. Any show turning ten means it must have a pretty tried and tested formula. The downside of this is that it can end up becoming a bit repetitive, especially if, like us, you've avidly followed the show since it first aired. But fear not, because this year the rulebook is set to be shaken up with producers teasing a whole host of new twist and turns to keep us entertained. Speaking ahead of show's launch, Creative Director of the show Mike Spencer-Hayler, told the Mail they've had to 'tear up the rule book' this year, after viewing figures have dwindled after years of tame series of the reality show hit. 'We've seen the same things time and time again now and it's boring. We've got to move on. It felt static, and the show needs to feel fresh. People that come in, all do the same thing. Because they've all watched it time and time again. It became too formatted.' So what's in store for season 12? One of the key changes for season 12 is to do with the infamous hideaway. Mike told The Mail that ITV will broadcast intimate moments if and when they happen. This takes the show back to the early days when steamy scenes were common. This all changed in 2020 Ian Stirling confirmed that bosses had decided to censor sex scenes. 'The hideaway is open for business for 24 hours all the time, as long as they don't come with their partner,' Mike told the outlet. He also told The Mail that the villa is equipped with a new trampoline bed that 'would be good for throuples.' He continued: 'It can take the weight of four, we've checked. It's all about keeping the show fresh and exciting. And that's what we've got.' In last year's attempt to shake things up, former TOWIE star Joey Essex entered the villa. This year, Mike said we can't expect the same twist, but he teased there will be a different surprise. 'No former love islanders are coming in this year,' he said. Something big is coming in week one though. Not another reality star like Joey Essex. We've got a big week one planned. It's not a celebrity, but totally new.' Talking to The Sun, Mike seemed to hint that the Islanders could be faced with their exes: 'Do you know what I always say, the cast get released and then the ex's come forward. And that's how you get the bombshells.' There's even been some renovations to the villa itself in order to amp up the drama. Mike told The Mail the producers have shortened the walls of the terrace, which as any viewer will know, is a hotspot for spying on crushes and bombshells looking to couple up. 'The terrace walls are shorter and more see through now too. So you can see more up there. We just felt like it was too covered up. Extra gossip,' he said. It's no secret that the contestants are cooped up in the villa pretty much 24/7, meaning they do absolutely everything there. This is why one of the questions that's been asked many times is - why don't we ever see people eat proper meals? In previous seasons, we've only really seen the islanders snack or prepare their breakfasts in the outdoor kitchen. The contestants have their meals cooked for them by private chefs. ITV has confirmed they don't show contents eating because it's their downtime from having the cameras on them 24/7. They also said meals aren't filmed for technical reasons, like the sounds of eating with microphones. However, for season 12 the contestants will be shown eating meals for the first time ever. 'In this day and age, we need to be showing it,' said Mike. 'Viewers always ask us where and when the islanders eat lunch and dinner. Well this year you'll see it on camera now.' This could lead to even more good TV, as Mike admitted that sometimes juicy conversations come up between the islanders at mealtimes. 'There are chats that do happen whilst they eat,' he said. 'It might feature, it might not when it comes to the final edit, but there is a lot of whispering and there always has been. Sometimes it will affect how they might know information, because the viewer hasn't seen it. Now they will see it.'

Inside Sam Thompson's love life after Zara McDermott split and why they really broke up
Sam Thompson has been in the spotlight for his relationships as well as his appearances on Made in Chelsea, I'm A Celebrity and Soccer Aid Sam Thompson has been participating in a strenuous challenge ahead of this year's Soccer Aid for UNICEF. The Made in Chelsea star and I'm A Celebrity winner has been competing in Match Ball Mission throughout this week, with his progress being broadcast on ITV's This Morning. He's been transporting the Soccer Aid match ball over 260 miles from Stamford Bridge to Old Trafford in preparation for this year's game. Every mile, whether on foot or by bike, Sam is aiming to raise as much money as possible to support UNICEF's work for children worldwide - and he's expected to cross the finish line on Friday, June 6, which will also be televised on This Morning. Before the completion of his colossal task, we delve into the 32-year-old's love life following his recent break up with Zara McDermott. Reality star turned documentary maker Zara is now dating One Direction's Louis Tomlinson - who coincidentally is participating in the Soccer Aid match alongside Sam on Sunday, June 15 at Old Trafford. Sam and Zara's romance Sam and Zara started dating in early 2019, shortly after she had finished her stint on Love Island where she was involved with self-proclaimed ladies' man, Adam Collard, reports Wales Online. At that time, Londoner Sam was in a relationship with fellow Made In Chelsea cast member Sophie Habboo (now married to fellow MIC and Strictly star Jamie Laing and expecting her first child) but it wasn't long before Zara and Sam became official and Zara soon joined the cast of the E4 reality show. Zara and Sam found themselves in troubled waters towards the end of 2019 amid rumours Zara had been unfaithful with music executive Brahim Fouradi during her time on X Factor: Celebrity, according to Hello! Initially, Zara refuted the cheating rumours, but she ultimately came clean in an emotional apology posted online in October 2020, after the affair hit the headlines. In a tear-jerking Made in Chelsea episode aired that same month, viewers watched as Zara pleaded with Sam for his forgiveness – that scene has since turned into a viral meme, which they've both learned to laugh about. Sam chose to put the past behind them, and the couple's move to their pad in Chelsea, close to Sam's sister Louise, was documented by their comical TikTok updates. Why did Sam and Zara split? Rumours that the pair had parted ways began circulating at the beginning of 2025, following a five-year romance. Speculation pointed to their separate celebrations over the festive period – Sam was volunteering for charity while Zara spent Christmas with her family in Upminster; Sam partied at Kensington Roof Gardens come New Year's Eve, as Zara opted for a quieter evening. The pressures of their demanding schedules were blamed for the root cause of their break up. Their last public outing as a couple was to celebrate Zara's birthday in December 2024, where Sam shared a heartfelt Instagram post calling Zara his "soulmate". Who is Sam now dating? Sam, who recently opened up about his autism diagnosis, has reportedly been in a relationship with Love Island's Samie Elishi since April. However, when questioned about her support during his Soccer Aid challenge, he told MailOnline: 'I feel like... this is so much more than who I'm dating or hooking up with. And I feel like it would take away from what it is going on. You know what I mean? "You know, If I had a wife or something like, like a girlfriend of years it might be a different. I just think that I don't want to do anything that will take away from this challenge and UNICEF - the spotlight needs to be on them. Like, I'm literally a vehicle. That's how I'm seeing it. I'm just a thing that is running to try and make money, so I want to keep it that way." Meanwhile, Zara has been dating One Direction's Louis Tomlinson following her break up with Sam, and Louis is set to return to the Soccer Aid line-up.

Love Island casting comes under fire AGAIN after it's revealed star had TikTok account where he ‘secretly films women'
AXED Love Island hunk Kyle Ashman took part in 'misogynistic' videos with a pal where they secretly filmed women. The lad was struck from the dating show line-up earlier this week after it was revealed that he had been held and questioned by police over a machete attack at a wake. Now it has been revealed that he had a joint TikTok and YouTube page with a friend called Fin Musker. Whilst the joint pages have been wiped of content, a source has told The Sun that the videos involved them 'picking up girls and filming them without knowledge'. The source added that the videos 'displayed misogynistic behaviour towards women'. Some content still online shows Fin and Kyle out on the town, kissing women and speaking to them in bars. When approached about the videos, Kyle did not wish to comment. It raises further question marks about ITV's vetting process for its reality shows. Earlier this week Kyle was sent packing from Majorca after The Sun alerted show bosses that he had been arrested on suspicion of a machete attack and was only cleared by police last month - meaning he would've been in discussion with authorities whilst auditioning for Love Island. ITV chiefs sent him home from Majorca, plunging the show into chaos ahead of Monday's launch. A source said: 'All of the online content had been cleared so may not have come up on surface level checks, but for this kind of show far deeper trawls should be in place. 'ITV has steered clear of OnlyFans stars in the past and Kyle's link to one - particularly taking part in joint content of a misogynistic nature - is surely not in keeping with Love Island being a family show.' Love Island's Kyle Ashman reveals he wants show return as Casa Amor hunk after being axed over machete attack on dad ITV declined to comment. Ashman, 23, was one of two quizzed over a brutal machete attack at a wake in Stafford in February but was released with no further action. Sources said the channel was unaware of the incident and he was not flagged as part of contestant checks. The victim, 38, nearly lost his arm. He was rushed to hospital for emergency treatment and kept in for around two weeks. Another mourner was glassed, one struck with a metal pole, and two people run over by a car during the 15 minutes of terror at a social club. Ashman, who lives in the town, was one of two men to be nicked on suspicion of affray then bailed. Police confirmed that after the matter had been investigated the pair were released with no further action only last month. Speaking after he was axed from the show, he said: "I'm not a bad guy, honestly. I'm a normal guy from a normal place. An opportunity arose to find love and I grabbed it with both hands, and it's been taken away from me. "I've seen the support pages and, who knows, maybe I'll get the chance to go on Casa Amor or as a bombshell, go back in and show you who I really am. Show you I'm not a bad guy. We'll see." 3 3 Troubled history of telly hit By Jonathan Kanengoni LOVE Island has been hit by a string of controversies since it first aired in 2015. Malia Arkian lasted just three hours before she was marched out by security in its second year after pushing co-contestant Kady McDermott for spilling wine on her. Sherif Lanre was booted off after nine days in 2019. He had made a vile joke after accidentally kicking fan fave Molly-Mae Hague in the crotch during a play fight. In the same year Women's Aid complained of contestant Joe Garratt's 'abusive' behaviour towards on-screen partner Lucie Donlan. She broke down in tears after he told her to stay away from the other lads. Ollie Williams left after three days in 2020 when he realised he still had feelings for his ex. But his exit came amid mounting pressure on bosses to remove him after pictures of him allegedly trophy hunting came to light. Salesman Haris Namani was dumped in 2023 after The Sun revealed footage of him in a street brawl. The show has also been accused of failing to look after islanders' mental health when filming stops. Sophie Gradon took her own life, aged 32, two years after she appeared on Love Island 2016. And Mike Thalassitis's suicide in 2019, at 26, prompted calls for better after-care by reality shows. In 2022, watchdog Ofcom received 3,600 complaints in a week over alleged misogynistic behaviour by some of the male contestants. And this year it received thousands of complaints about All Stars contestant Elma Pazar's bullying of Ekin- Su Culculoglu during a row.
