Nina and Summer in Corrie witness horror incident that stuns them to silence
A midsummer party turns into a drug-fuelled nightmare for some of Coronation Street's usually more well-behaved residents in upcoming episodes – and Nina Lucas (Mollie Gallagher) and Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) are involved in a horrific incident.
The party is at the home of the Alahans, where Aadi (Adam Hussain) has lately been bemoaning the fact that his life is a bit dull. To spice up his life he decides to throw a party, and Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) suggests a midsummer theme, because of it being midsummer and she loves a bit of a pagan vibe.
Summer and Nina opt for some floral headwear as a nod to the occasion, while Brody (Ryan Mulvey) decides that nothing is more likely to get the party started and his bank balance boosted than supplying a few illegal drugs to the party-goers.
Aadi spots him trying to sell LSD and throws him out, though Brody doesn't leave without a fight. It's not his first run-in with Aadi, after all.
Once he's gone, Aadi, Summer and Nina prepare to sample the drugs, although Aadi is distracted by a commotion and his share ends up being taken by someone else – with shocking results.
Later, feeling the effects of the LSD, Nina and Summer leave the party and head towards the cafe. Nina lets them into the darkened establishment – and it's there that things take a sinister turn. As they're freaked out by the sound of sirens in the street they cling to each other in terror as a terrifying scene unfolds.
The next day they're shell-shocked and try to make sense of what happened the night before. Retracing their steps, they try to piece together what happened.

Unable to get the answers they're hoping for, they make a pact to keep the incident to themselves, knowing that they could get into huge trouble. More Trending
Nina, however, is so troubled by what happened that she talks to her uncle Roy Cropper (David Neilson), telling him that she took hallucinogenic drugs at the party.
She says her memories of what happened don't entirely make sense to her, but Roy urges her to tell the police what she remembers, as it's clear that something very troubling happened that evening.

Hollyoaks confirms unexpected new love interest for Clare Devine in dark story
Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix) ups the ante in Hollyoaks next week as part of her plan to get Tori (Harriet O'Shea) back in her life – and she uses Dodger Savage (Danny Mac) in order to do so. The legendary schemer, who has done some pretty bad things in her time, stated earlier this week that she had been diagnosed with cancer, claiming the treatment isn't working. In typical Clare fashion, there is no truth to such claims and the development came rather out of the blue, with the villain devising the plan after a trip to the hospital to visit sister Grace Black (Tamara Wall). Upon seeing patients receiving treatment, she formulated a plan, hoping she could use her cancer claims as a way to manipulate herself back into daughter Tori's life. Dodger, who had been hostile towards Clare previously over her role in the exploitation operation, softened once she stated that she had cancer. Sienna Blake (Anna Passey), however, knew full well that Clare was up to no good, urging her brother to proceed with caution where the returnee is concerned. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Clare subsequently asked Dodger for help in shaving her head – and he complied, with a spark seemingly forming between the two. Determined to get Tori back, Clare capitalises on this growing connection next week, with new pictures shared with Metro revealing a first look at the scenes to come. Dodger stumbles upon Clare in a seemingly weakened state and, horrified, he offers to lend a hand. With the undercover cop falling for her lies almost instantly, Clare is delighted and thus she proceeds with the next step of her plan, which entails making him feel very guilty over taking Tori from her given her condition.

Afterwards, a heart-to-heart ensues, with Clare stating that she simply believed Alistair (Drew Cain) was having an affair – not that he was a hardened criminal involved in exploitation. The pair grow incredibly close but a phone call interrupts them, scuppering Clare's plot. For now. More Trending Ever the opportunist, the schemer concocts a plan to get Dodger over to the flat later in the week. Dodger apologises for thinking she had a role to play in her late husband's crimes. The chemistry sizzles and Dodger starts to worry that the lines are getting blurred as he comes to realise that he's starting to fall for Clare. Will Clare succeed in getting what she wants? Or will Dodger see through her lies before it's too late? View More » Hollyoaks streams Mondays to Wednesdays from 6am on Channel 4's streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.

Incredible films that were shot on an iPhone including star-studded 28 Years Lat
While there is endless filmmaking equipment out there costing from hundreds to £80,000 (and more), you would have thought the most anticipated horror film of 2025 might be using gear at the higher end of the scale… Right? Wrong. If you're saving up for the best camera in the business to film your next project, you may just be wasting your time. Why not just use your iPhone? Everyone else is, including Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later, which Metro has given 5 big fat emotional stars in our review. It's not the first time this has happened, either. Here are all the films you might not know were filmed primarily using an iPhone. One even made it to the Oscars. Hitting cinemas on Friday and starring Jodie Comer and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, the hotly-anticipated sequel to 28 Days Later used an adapted iPhone 15 for the job, making the Hollywood thriller – with its $75million budget – the biggest film to be shot with a phone to date. In 2002, 28 Days Later was one of the first Hollywood feature films to be shot with a Canon XL-1 for an intentionally low-fi look. This new flick – which kicks off a new trilogy for the franchise – took inspiration from its original. Boyle recently explained why he used an adapted iPhone 15 for the job during the London premiere of the film. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The director told The Independent: 'We decided to shoot it on the upgrade of a domestic video camera. That's smartphones, they're everywhere. They are lightweight in the countryside. You can create special rigs with them, filming the violence. But also you can give it to the actors and they can film themselves sometimes. 'Horror movies let you refresh the palate – you don't have to go classical.' He also added to Business Insider: 'Any smartphone now can record at 4K, indeed up to 60 frames per second, which is more than enough resolution you need for cinema exhibition.' Boyle went on to reveal how they utilised farm animals to help, explaining: 'We did strap a camera to some animals a couple of times — yeah, a goat.' Nice. Stormzy's new film Big Man was fortunate enough to get their hands on an iPhone 16 Pro for filming… Eat your hear out Danny Boyle. Slow-motion scenes were captured in 4K 120 fps, while cinematic mode was also used to blur backgrounds. Apple's short film tells the story of Tenzman, a fed up musician played by Stormzy whose life is changed by two youngsters when they embark on a journey together. 'I've never shot an entire piece of narrative filmmaking on an iPhone before, and it's been a really invigorating process,' director Aneil Karia said. 'iPhone is much smaller than the traditional cameras used for television, film, or music videos, and the lightness and flexibility that comes with that is boundless in a sense. 'I like trying to strive for an intimacy with characters, and sometimes a big camera is not particularly conducive for that.' Psychological thriller Unsane, starring Claire Foy and Joshua Leonard, was filmed entirely on an iPhone 7 Plus. Unsane follows a stalking victim called Sawyer Valentini (Foy) who is trapped in a mental institution against her will. The 2018 film became one of the most high-profile uses of iPhone filming (until 28 Years Later) as its prominent director Steven Soderbergh championed the method through it. 'I think this is the future,' he told Indiewire. 'Anyone going to see this movie without any idea of the backstory to the production will have no idea this was shot on the phone.' Soderbergh's second iPhone-only film came hot off the heels of Unsane in the form of NBA drama High Flying Bird. This time though, an iPhone 8 was used. Fancy! In it Andre Holland stars as sports agent Ray Burke who tries to accelerate a rookie player's career in an unusual way. While it seems unlikely an iPhone would be able to capture the subtle details that make up a tense, dramatic sports film, it's largely focused on the chatter around the gamerather than the game itself. 'It was shot in February and March of 2018, in three weeks. It's a very small crew and the gear that's available to enhance this already pretty extraordinary capture-device made it even better,' Soderbergh told The Hollywood Reporter. 'So, if I had to do it in a more traditional way, it would have actually hurt the film. I was able to do things because of the ease of shooting something. 'You can basically shoot anything you can think of, you can put the lens anywhere you want. If I were in a more traditional mode, there were things that I wouldn't have been able to execute as well as I'd wanted, because of the size of the equipment and people necessary to move it around.' Tangerine, a 2015 film by Sean Baker – who swept the board at the Oscars this year with Anora – was shot entirely on an iPhone 5s using the FiLMIC Pro App, which gives further focus, aperture and colour temperature control. The independent film, which was met with critical praise and was Sundance Film Festival's breakout movie, was shot using an iPhone to keep costs low. 'It was surprisingly easy,' Baker told The Verge. 'We never lost any footage.' Alongside the help of the $8 app, Baker used a Steadicam to stabilise the footage. 'These phones, because they're so light, and they're so small, a human hand – no matter how stable you are – it will shake. And it won't look good,' he explained. They also used an adapter lens that was attached to the iPhone, which was 'essential' to make it cinematic. 'To tell you the truth, I wouldn't have even made the movie without it,' he said. 'It truly elevated it to a cinematic level.' 2012's Oscar-winning film Searching for Sugar Man follows two fans of a South African icon – believed to be dead – as they set out to learn his true fate. More Trending While Swedish filmmaker Malik Bendjelloul didn't set out for the film to make this list, he ran out of money so was forced to use an iPhone for the final shots. 'I started shooting this film with a Super 8 camera, which is pretty expensive stuff. I completely ran out of money. I had just a very few shots left, but I needed those shots,' he told CNN in an interview. 'I realised that there was this app on my iPhone and I tried it and it looked basically the same.' The iPhone App in question was called 8mm Vintage Camera, which did a decent job at imitating a real 8mm camera. Good to know. Got a story?

Coronation Street cast hit by fresh blow as budget cuts continue to bite
The Coronation Street cast have been hit by a fresh blow amid the ongoing budget cuts - which have seen a number of changes in the long-running ITV soap throughout the year The cast and crew of ITV soap Coronation Street are reportedly said to be "furious" over the latest impact of budget cuts. Earlier this year, it was reported the long-running soap had made changes to filming in a bid to cut back on expenses. Now, the cast and crew have been hit with another huge blow, as the latest impact has reportedly left them forking out for their own summer party. In January, it was reported the show had infuriated some of the cast by reducing the number of established characters filming inside the iconic Rovers Return pub in a bid to save money. The show has also seen a number of departures this year including Colson Smith (Craig Tinker) and Charlotte Jordan (Daisy Midgeley). The latest change reportedly means the cast have had to organise their own summer party, which each person paying £22 per for the bash. They'll also be paying for drinks on top of the sum, which covers venue, entertainment and security. A source told The Sun: 'It's been a difficult few months and people were really looking forward to the party, but it puts a bit of a dampener on things that they have to pay. 'It might not be a lot to some of the bigger known stars but for some staff it is. The fact that drinks aren't included is a real blow too. People aren't really that surprised though considering the constant budget cuts.' The Mirror understands that the Coronation Street crew organised the party, not ITV bosses, and the whole team is said to be looking forward to the event. The Mirror have contacted Coronation Street and ITV for comment. The news comes months after it was announced the soap would be cutting down to five hours a week, rather than six. However, it's not the only ITV soap to have their hours cut, as Emmerdale will also follow suit. The change is set to take place at the beginning of 2026. From January, there will be a soap 'power hour', with Emmerdale airing for half an hour each day at 8pm. Coronation Street will air straight after at 8.30pm each day, again for half an hour, as the drama from the Cobbles returns to its daily offerings. However, there's also a huge positive in January for both soaps, as for the first time ever, they'll join forces in an unprecedented, one-off special episode to launch the broadcaster's new power hour. It will mark the first time a crossover has happened in British soap history, will see characters from both soaps come together in a celebration of the soap genre.
