Corrie confirms 'nightmare' drug storyline with 'devastating consequences'
Coronation Street bosses have revealed that they will be tackling the difficult topic of drugs by showing how they can affect the lives of young people who indulge
Coronation Street is set to air a shocking new drug storyline next week, and the consequences for the youth of Weatherfield will leave viewers stunned.
In dramatic scenes set to air on Monday June 23, Aadi Alahan throws a wild party at number 7. What begins as a harmless midsummer bash quickly spirals into chaos with "disturbing" consequences.
When Bernie Winter calls the teens out for being boring, Aadi decided to get rid of his sensible image by inviting his friends over for a night to remember. However, this party takes a dark turn when troublemaker Brody Michaelis brings a bottle of LSD to the party in the hopes of making a quick profit.
When Aadi catches him selling the drugs, he is furious and kicks Brody out. But the situation only escalates when Summer Spellman convinces Aadi and Nina Lucas to try it, claiming she took LSD while in America.
After this dangerous brush with peer pressure, Aadi divides the LSD into three drinks. Summer and Nina take theirs, but before Aadi can drink his, he's distracted. When he returns, the drink has disappeared — and there's a big possibility someone else gulped it down without knowing what was in it.
Meanwhile, Lauren Bolton flees the party after starting to feel unwell and soon finds herself in a terrifying situation. The exact details of her ordeal are being kept tightly under wraps, but a teaser from ITV describes it as a "nightmare" scenario.
The official promo trailer for the episode shows Summer and Nina breaking into Roy's darkened café while high. When the sound of sirens fills the air, they huddle together in panic.
It's clear something has gone horribly wrong, and the entire Weatherfield community will soon be facing the consequences of the teens' actions.
This is not the first time Summer has found herself in a dangerous situation because of drugs. In 2017 she was dared to smoke Spice by Simon Barlow, and collapsed after going through with it.
That incident nearly cost the girl her life, and led to serious legal trouble for her the Barlow family and her legal guardians. Now it seems the teen has decided to risk it all for another hit, and this time is bringing Nina down with her.
Elsewhere on Coronation Street, DS Lisa Swain is set to become more protective of Kit Green after several clashes with him in the workplace. Actress Vicky Myers told The Mirror: "I think after what has happened with Tinker, Lisa really feels like she is this protector.
"She sees something in Kit that reminds her of herself but equally, she frustrates him and he does her. She knows not everything he does is above board and it doesn't sit well with her."

Top TV chef's 15-minute air fryer recipe for perfect midweek dinner
Poppy O'Toole, known as the 'Potato Queen' on social media, has shared a delicious mid-week meal recipe that's sure to get your taste buds tingling - and it only takes 15 minutes to make TV chef and TikTok sensation Poppy O'Toole, also known as the 'Potato Queen', has delighted food enthusiasts with a tantalising mid-week meal recipe. Choosing what to whip up for dinner after a long day can be a hassle, but Poppy is simplifying things with her delicious and easy-to-follow recipes. The Michelin-trained chef, who frequently appears on ITV's This Morning, has garnered an impressive 74.2 million likes on her TikTok page, where she posts her favourite carb-rich delights. Despite losing her job in 2020, Poppy has since skyrocketed to fame, even cooking alongside Jamie Oliver and featuring on his latest Channel 4 programme, Jamie's Air Fryer Meals. Poppy, a self-confessed 'carbie', is famous for her quick and uncomplicated meals, often utilising an air fryer for most of her recipes. In her most recent viral TikTok video, the social media star, known as Poppy Cooks, shows how to incorporate McCain's new Air Fryer Fries into dishes. She prepares coconut prawns with bang bang sauce served on a bed of chips - a dish that takes merely 10 minutes to prepare and five minutes to cook. Ingredients 150g raw king prawns Three tablespoons of plain flour One teaspoon of garlic granules One teaspoon of onion granules One teaspoon of cayenne pepper One teaspoon of dried basil Half a teaspoon of chilli flakes Salt and pepper Two eggs 75g of desiccated coconut 75g of panko breadcrumbs 75g of mayonnaise One tablespoon of sweet chilli sauce One teaspoon of hot chilli sauce One lime, zested 1/2 juiced 200g of tenderstem broccoli Two spring onions - sliced for garnish One sliced red chill 250g of McCain Air Fryer Quick Crispy French Fries Method Step 1: Start by preheating the air fryer to 200C. In a large bowl, mix the plain flour, salt and pepper. In a separate dish, combine the egg with the dried herbs and spices. Season the egg mixture well with salt and pepper then set it aside. In another large bowl or dish, blend the panko breadcrumbs and desiccated coconut, reports the Express. Step 2: Pop the prawns into the mixing bowl and cover them in flour before dipping them into the spiced egg mixture. Shake off any surplus egg and, using your mitts, transfer them to the bowl of panko and coconut. Press the coconut onto the prawns to ensure it sticks. Step 3: Shift the prawns into the air fryer basket and spritz them with oil. Air fry for 4-5 minutes until the coconut and panko are toasted on the outside and the prawns are cooked, flipping them halfway through. Step 4: Whilst the prawns are cooking, drizzle the tenderstem broccoli with oil, salt and pepper and air fry for five minutes. Step 5: As you load the prawns into the air fryer, pour the McCain Air Fryer French Fries into the other basket and cook for five minutes, giving them a shake halfway through. This recipe is spot on as everything cooks at the same time! Step 6: While everything is in the air fryer, mix the lime zest and juice, mayonnaise and chilli sauces in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Step 7: Serve up the prawns, tenderstem broccoli and the McCain Air Fryer French Fries with a generous dollop of the spicy bang bang mayo and a sprinkle of sliced spring onions and chopped chilli. Poppy, discussing the recipe, stated: "I can't control my excitement because McCain has launched a new air fryer range, including these fries that take five minutes. The fries that not only taste fantastic (if I do say so myself) but also cook in a matter of minutes. "To celebrate the launch, I created six unique recipes designed specifically for the air fryer, that can be whipped up in no time at all, guaranteed to elevate your weeknight dinners!" TikTok enthusiasts have lauded the recipe as "delicious" and "very cool".

Love Island fans predict the boys will 'go feral' in Casa Amor as chaos continues in the ITV villa: 'This is how they're acting after just one week!'
Love Island fans are predicting the boys will 'crash out' and 'go feral' in Casa Amor. The 2025 series only began on June 9, but it's already delivered explosive drama, from fiery arguments to steamy nights together. Tuesday night's episode saw talk of threesomes and the second couple heading for alone time in the hideaway. Despite it still being early days in the villa, viewers are all saying the same thing - Casa Amor is going to be chaos. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they penned: 'I can already see who's going to crash out during casa amor. 'These boys will be FERAL in casa amor,' The ITV show kicked off on June 9 and the 2025 cast has already delivered some huge drama full of bust ups and make ups 'The mess this villa is going to be in when Casa Amor comes back,' 'The state of the villa casa amor is going to be incredible,' 'Just imagine what the casa amor episodes are gonna give,' 'IDK i feel like conor will be the 'respectful' boy until we hit casa amor.' It comes fans were left in shock during Monday's show when 'hypocritical' Harry confessed to having an orgy with an entire women's football team. Viewers saw the return of the Got The Receipts challenge that sees contestants slide down a conveyor belt, swipe their card and pick up a receipt, which reveals a fact about an Islander of the opposite sex. They then have to decide who they think the fact is about and kiss their chosen person, before finding out if they got it right. One receipt read: 'This boy has had an orgy with an entire women's football team.' Despite it still being early days in the villa, fans are all saying the same thing as Casa Amor looms The culprit was revealed to be Harry, with the girls exclaiming: 'It's Harry! I'm not sure we should be clapping for that.' Viewers at home were equally as shocked at the confession and slammed his 'double standards' on X. They shared: 'Harry is just a big gigantic red flag!!!'; 'And if I say Harry made that up because I can't see 11 women sleeping with him'; 'Harry is such a hypocrite?? Judging Helena for being a 'party girl' yet he has had an orgy with an entire football team?? What else is harry hiding? He is 10x worse yet degrading Helena?? The men this year are horrible'; ''The whole women's team' ok Harry someone's telling fibs'; 'Harry's acting like this and he's…thirty?'; 'Love Island just shows the double standards women face on a daily basis. Harry was judging Helena for being a bit freaky meanwhile he's slept with a whole football team.' The challenge took a disastrous turn as the boys cooked up an outrageous game plan which instantly backfired. Ben thought that Helena was the girl that was caught with handcuffs in her case while travelling, and Conor though that Toni picked up the phone while getting down and dirty because of a job. However, three of the boys decided to play their own game within the game. The rest of the group had no idea that Harry, Dejon, and Shea had got together and agreed that they would lock lips with the girl they fancied, rather than who they though the fact was about. But later on in the episode their secret plan was revealed after Tommy pointed out that they all kissed someone that they were attracted to. Harry told him: 'We were all like, boys lets just forget the question and just say who you wanna kiss - so Shea was like I wanna kiss Megan, when he read it out, me and D said, 'That's Megan!'' Tommy replied: 'Oh my God, f****ng hell! What do you think will happen tonight then? That will all come out?' The landscape gardener then decided to share the information with his girl Megan. She confessed: 'We f***ing knew it!' Tommy continued: 'Shea said, 'When it's my turn say Megan' - I think that's out of order. I don't like confrontation, but I will stand up for what's right.'

Kate Hudson showcases svelte midriff in tiny bikini during family getaway to Greece
Kate Hudson showed off her incredible bikini body while enjoying a relaxing beach day with her family in Greece. Over the weekend, the 46-year-old actress put her taut midriff and toned physique on display as she sauntered across the beach and basked in the sun. She caught some rays and enjoyed a dip in the clear, blue waters just days after landing in the country with fiancé Danny Fujikawa, 38, and their kids for lavish summer holiday. The Almost Famous star — who went braless in a nude pink bodysuit paired with a semi-sheer, black maxi skirt just a few days ago — sported a straw bucket hat and had her skimpy bikini bottoms slung low on her hips as she soaked in the sunshine. She sported a pair of reflective sunglasses and did not skimp out on accessories as she sported a silver, wraparound cuff bracelet while she enjoyed the lavish summer holiday with her kids. The Glass Onion alum was joined by her fiancé Danny Fujikawa and her two youngest kids. She and the musician have been engaged for three years after he proposed to her just ahead of their five-year dating anniversary. The pair had been close friends for many years before meeting through Fujikawa's stepsisters. The actor-turned-singer is a mother to two sons and a daughter. She shares her youngest child and first daughter Rani, six, with Fujikawa. She is also mother to her first child, her 21-year-old son Ryder, whom she shares with her ex-husband Chris Robinson. Hudson welcomed her second son Bingham in 2011 with her former fiancé Matt Bellamy. The daughter of actress Goldie Hawn and the Hudson Brothers singer Bill Hudson recently reflected on her childhood as she was raised by famous actors Hawn and Kurt Russell. She talked about how growing up with 'lack of structure' also lent to her parenting style with her three kids now. She caught some rays and enjoyed a dip in the clear, blue waters just days after landing in Greece with fiancé Danny Fujikawa , 38, and their kids for lavish summer holiday; pictured February in Los Angeles In an interview with Vanity Fair published on Tuesday, Hudson spoke about how her parents Hawn and Russell, who have been together for over 40 years, were 'gone a lot.' 'When we were younger, they never worked at the same time. There was only one time, when I was like 16, where they were both working at the same time,' she recalled. 'Kurt was actually talking the other day about how he decided not to do a movie because I had too much freedom. He was like, "I'm not working after this movie, because I need to be home to watch my teenager".' She added: 'But they worked a lot. My mom was gone a lot. 'I think their generation is different than our generation. We're much more home-centric,' she continued. 'We traveled a lot with my mom. There was a lot of spontaneous leaving and traveling and living in different places,' Hudson said. 'Oliver and I are much more structured,' she said about her and her brother, Nashville star Oliver Hudson, 48. 'We're home, kids are in school. Because when you grow up with that lack of structure, I think you sort of overcompensate.'
