Coronation Street reveals major Gary Windass story as attack is confirmed
Coronation Street has confirmed Gary Windass' (Mikey North) whereabouts after the character seemingly vanished into thin air.
The character said he was heading off on a trip to Durham to visit mum Anna (Debbie Rush), but hasn't been seen since.
His brief holiday took place after an eventful few weeks, having found himself caught between wife Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) and dangerous Lou Michaelis (Farrel Hegarty).
Lou developed quite the crush on Gary, attempting to kiss him and incriminating messages to herself from his phone. The blackmail got the better of him and he fled.
Since then, he's failed to return to Weatherfield.
Maria's only contact will be a message saying he's stopping off to see a mate, but by next week, there's still no sign of him.
In upcoming scenes, Liam's (Charlie Wrenshall) birthday, and as his mum and uncle Kirk (Andrew Whyment) gift him his presents, they all begin to ponder where Gary has gone.
Little do they realise, he's actually in a coma and fighting for his life – just around the corner at Weathy General.
But how did he end up in this situation?
We'll see desperate Maria report him as a missing person to Kit Green (Jacob Roberts), who then learns about an unidentified patient.
He's sure that it isn't Gary, but it becomes clear that his attacker is going to extreme lengths to conceal their crime and cover their tracks. They're even pretending to be his next of kin!
'Maria and Gary are going through a bit of a rough patch at the minute and initially she's upset that he's left but doesn't think too much into it,' Samia told us.
'As soon as Gary misses Liam's birthday, she has a gut feeling that something isn't right and fears something awful might have happened to him.'

Samia continued: 'Maria's mind is spiralling, but she doesn't stop for a second to think who actually attacked Gary.
'She's aware he has a lot of enemies from over the years who could have potentially wanted to take revenge on him.'

Actress Georgia, 34, who is best-known for playing the role as Katy Armstrong in the hit ITV soap, revealed two years ago that she had been diagnosed with vitiligo. 5 Georgia May Foote opened up about the skin condition she has Credit: Instagram / @georgiamay112 5 The actress gave an update on her ongoing battle with vitiligo Credit: Instagram / @georgiamay112 5 The star showed how the condition affected her arms and hands Credit: Instagram / @georgiamay112 5 The actress is best known for starring in Coronation Street Credit: ITV The soap star has actually had the skin condition - where white spots or patches can be seen in different areas of her body - since 2020. Today the Coronation Street legend gave fans an update on her "tough" journey. The actress took to social media as she opened up on the effects of vitiligo, which is a chronic autoimmune disorder. Sharing a slew of pics which showed how the condition had affected her hands and arms, she wrote a lengthy post which read: " Happy World Vitiligo Day. "If you are new to my page or don't already know, I developed vitiligo in 2020. "This has been one of the craziest journeys I have ever had. I was misdiagnosed for a while before I begged to be seen by a dermatologist, which then took another year. I was then diagnosed with vitiligo. "Vitiligo is a skin condition where my immune systems attacks the melanocytes which produce the melanin in my skin. "This causes white patches all over my body, which continue to spread daily. "They become bigger and show up new places all the time!." Giving fans an update on how she has been doing, Georgia said: "This year has been particularly tough as it has spread onto my face now. I have good days and bad days with the condition! Coronation Street star Georgia May Foote sparks concern as she reveals she's been too ill to eat for five days "Sometimes I'm really down about it and other days I feel very special. "Unfortunately there is no understanding why this happens. ( stress deffo doesn't help in my case ) I have the very annoying side effect of itching! "And until the uk pass the cream Opzelure there will be no way of bringing my pigment back!" The soap star ended with the message with: "People who love me don't give it a second glance. Vitiligo: What are the symptoms? The main symptom of vitiligo is flat, white spots or patches on your skin. Initially, the vitiligo may start as a patch of skin that is paler than the rest. Gradually, the patch will become completely white as the pigment in the skin begins to fade. Vitiligo does not cause discomfort to your skin, such as dryness, but patches may occasionally be itchy, guidance states. "That's all that matters it's a hard thing to deal with, but I am a tough and I will not let it get to me. "I have an amazing family and group of friends who mean the world to me. "Happy world vitiligo day to my gang." In March, Georgia revealed how she is advocating for the NHS to approve the prescription of medical cream, Ruxolitinib, which is reported to help those with the condition. The actress shot to fame in Corrie in 2010, and was on the soap until 2015. She's also known for her appearances in the BBC school drama, Grange Hill, from 2005 for three years.
