17 Huge Coronation Street Spoilers Next Week: 29 Dec–2 Jan Chaos Ahead!
Weatherfield is heading into the new year with its nerves shredded and its secrets hanging by a thread. Coronation Street delivers one of its most explosive festive weeks yet, as weddings collide with betrayals, long-buried truths come dangerously close to the surface, and multiple storylines race toward devastating consequences. From Carl’s carefully constructed web of lies threatening to unravel, to Todd’s harrowing ordeal finally being exposed, and a chilling escape plan that could change lives forever, the cobbles are anything but calm. Here’s a dramatic, in-depth look at the 17 huge spoilers dominating Coronation Street from 29 December to 2 January.
1. Carl’s confession raises alarming questions
As chaos brews around him, Carl finds an unexpected moment of vulnerability with Ronnie. Preparing to visit his mother’s grave for a final goodbye, Carl opens up about his loveless childhood, revealing a deep emotional wound that still defines him. What should be a poignant moment instead plants doubt in Ronnie’s mind. When Carl admits he struggles to love properly, Ronnie is left questioning Carl’s feelings for Abi—and whether this confession is genuine or yet another manipulative move.
2. Abi senses danger—but not the full truth
Abi confides in Tracy, shaken by a growing sense that something is badly wrong in her relationship. She fears her romance is crumbling, unaware that Carl’s deception runs far deeper than she could imagine. As Carl continues to weaponise his troubled past, Abi edges closer to the truth, even as he tightens his grip.
3. Ryan stumbles onto something suspicious
A routine task at the pub quickly turns sinister when Ryan notices irregularities while chasing up an invoice. His unease deepens when he realises Carl has changed all the passwords to the accounts. In Weatherfield, financial secrecy is never innocent, and Ryan’s curiosity could be the spark that brings Carl’s entire scheme crashing down.
4. Debbie makes a heartfelt wedding wish
Ahead of her big day, Debbie is touched by a pre-wedding pamper session organised by Sally, Glenda, Bernie and Christina. Amid the laughter and warmth, Debbie reveals her one true wish: that Kevin and Carl put aside their bitter feud long enough to let her enjoy her wedding in peace. Sally, ever the fixer, decides to intervene—though whether this will calm tensions or ignite them remains to be seen.

5. A wedding day overshadowed by bad omens
Debbie’s nerves intensify when she breaks her glasses on the morning of the ceremony, fearing it’s a sign of things to come. Bernie rushes to restore her luck, but Debbie can’t ignore the tension simmering between her brothers. Even a moving performance from the dementia choir can’t fully mask the sense that this celebration is teetering on the edge of disaster.
6. Abi makes a shocking discovery
Abi’s suspicions explode when she finds a mysterious bag of coins hidden in Carl’s car boot. Before she can confront him, the bag disappears, only heightening her fear that Carl is planning a sudden escape. Kevin’s anger reaches boiling point, and all eyes turn to his upcoming wedding speech—one that may veer dangerously off-script.
7. Kevin’s rage threatens to erupt
As Kevin prepares to speak, it’s clear he’s barely containing his fury. With accusations swirling and trust shattered, his words could expose Carl in front of everyone. The wedding hangs in the balance, with the threat of public humiliation—or worse—looming large.
8. Theo’s jealousy isolates Todd
At George and Eileen’s joint celebration, Theo’s controlling behaviour becomes increasingly obvious. When Nick joins Todd for a run and Sarah casually mentions Nick was Todd’s first crush, Theo’s jealousy spirals. Under the guise of collecting a cake, Theo ushers Todd away—only to unleash his anger and abandon him, leaving Todd shaken and alone.
9. Billy fears the worst
Alarmed by Theo’s behaviour, Billy reaches out for guidance on recognising abuse, his concern for Todd growing by the hour. As Todd nervously awaits Theo on New Year’s Eve, the tension is unbearable, and the warning signs are impossible to ignore.
10. Theo’s violence escalates
When Billy and Summer visit, Theo’s probing questions raise alarm bells. Once they leave, Theo turns on Todd again, tightening the cycle of fear and control. Todd, once confident and sharp, is now visibly trapped, his spirit worn down by relentless intimidation.
11. Todd attempts to flee
Terrified by what’s happening, Todd seizes a moment to escape. But Theo’s manipulative messages quickly follow, insisting Todd cannot survive without him. It’s a chilling reminder of how deeply Todd has been conditioned to doubt himself—and how hard it will be to truly break free.
12. Billy discovers the truth at the wedding
During Debbie and Ronnie’s reception, a seemingly minor incident leads to a devastating revelation. Billy follows Todd to the toilets and notices bruises Todd tries desperately to explain away, even blaming himself. For Billy, the evidence is undeniable, and the emotional weight of Todd’s self-blame is heartbreaking.
13. Kit closes in on Carla’s disappearance
While others are distracted by wedding drama, Kit focuses on Carla’s alarming silence. With help from the ambulance team, he pieces together a cryptic clue that points to a location. Kit’s determination sets him apart, and time is running out to find Carla.
14. Becky accelerates her escape plan
Kit’s investigation brings him dangerously close to Becky, who is revealed to be hiding in Costello’s flat. Meanwhile, Becky pressures Lisa to speed up their move to Spain, quietly tightening her control and cutting off lines of communication.
15. Lisa is drawn deeper into Becky’s web
Lisa hands over Carla’s engagement ring for safekeeping, unaware she’s being manipulated. Becky insists they discard their old phones “for safety,” a final step in isolating Lisa from the truth. The danger is now chillingly clear.
16. Health scares and heartfelt moments
Shona suffers a worrying health scare while packing away decorations, prompting David to insist she gets checked out. Elsewhere, Tyrone faces his fears with encouragement from Evelyn. His triumphant entrance into the Rovers on crutches, greeted by cheers, provides a rare moment of warmth amid the turmoil.
17. Old grudges resurface
As Asha confides in Amy about stopping her medication, concern ripples through the group. When Tracy spots Amy talking to Cassie, she lashes out with characteristic venom, proving that some rivalries in Weatherfield never truly fade.
As Coronation Street charges into the new year, secrets teeter on the brink of exposure, relationships are pushed to breaking point, and lives hang in the balance. With weddings, revelations, and daring escapes colliding, the cobbles promise a breathless, unforgettable start to January.
