Bethany Platt considers leaving Weatherfield next week.
The Coronation Street resident (Lucy Fallon) is convinced that evil Nathan Curtis (Chris Harper) is to blame for Lauren Bolton’s (Cait Fitton) murder.
With her daughter at breaking point, Sarah Barlow (Tina O’Brien) takes a bold move to try and get rid of Bethany’s sex offender ex for good. But when she’s caught in the act is Sarah in trouble or will the police find evidence of their own which puts Nathan in the frame?

In upcoming scenes, Sarah and Bethany report Nathan to the police for breaching the terms of his licence when he drives his van past her, freaking her out. As Bethany threatens to leave Weatherfield again, Sarah pays Nathan a visit at the building site, reminding him that he accepted £10k to leave town. When Nathan laughs in her face Sarah forms a plan and returns with a plastic bag containing Lauren’s hair bobble, found in her things that she left at the Platts.

Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) catches Sarah in the act, forcing her to admit she was planning to plant the hair bobble in Nathan’s van to prove he murdered Lauren. Kit urges her to let the police do their job.
After searching his van and discovering some USB sticks, Kit arrests Nathan on suspicion of breaching his sexual harm prevention order. Sarah asks Kit what they found in Nathan’s van and when he reveals it’s one of Lauren’s hairs and suggests she must have dropped it, he promises to keep her name out of it.

Sarah confides in Bethany and Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) how she planned to set Nathan up and now he’s been arrested. When DS Swain reveals that the girl who provided him with an alibi for the night of Lauren’s disappearance has changed her mind, Nathan’s rattled.
As DS Swain questions him about his penchant for young girls and suggests he murdered Lauren, Nathan refuses to comment. Daniel assures Bethany he would never grass up Sarah and his only hope is that Nathan really is guilty, because if not, the real murderer will walk free.
Nathan assures solicitor Joel Deering (Calum Lill) that he’s innocent and suspects Sarah planted Lauren’s hair. In a bid to gather more evidence against Nathan, Daniel and Bethany call Nicky Whitley (Kimberly Hart-Simpson) and beg her to put them in touch with Ellie (Lola Blue) as they suspect she has vital information.
Ellie describes to Bethany how she had a client who showered her with gifts and became more of a boyfriend, but suddenly turned nasty and threatened to kill her. When Bethany shows her a photo of Nathan, will Ellie confirm it was him? Corrie spoilers have confirmed fans will “discover who really killed Lauren” next week.
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX
