Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) makes a shocking move on Alya Nazir (Sair Khan) in upcoming Coronation Street scenes, as a new spoiler video shows him attempting to kiss her after a heated rant about his life.
The moment comes as Daniel's feud with Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) intensifies over a piece of land near a local school. Daniel has been fighting to stop the sale of the green space, and recently learned that one of the buyers is Idris Nazir (Junade Khan), who has made clear his intentions to take over multiple establishments in Weatherfield.
Daniel's Emotional Outburst
In the video, Daniel rants to Alya about feeling cursed, reflecting on his relationship with late wife Sinead and how his subsequent relationships with Bethany and Daisy failed. He also comments on his earlier relationship this year with teacher Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon), who secretly groomed a student and was only with Daniel to hide her abuse of Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson-Wale).
After Megan's true self was exposed, Daniel shut himself away and failed to care for his son Bertie, putting the young lad in danger. That served as a wake-up call, but Daniel is now channeling his energy into fighting for the green space.
The Kiss Attempt
Seeing Daniel's anger at how his life is playing out, Alya tries to comfort him by telling him he is kind and open-hearted. With booze in hand, Daniel tells Alya she is amazing and that Adam doesn't deserve her.
Just as he says this, Daniel leans in to try and kiss Alya, leaving her horrified. It is clear Alya has recognised Daniel is struggling, and the question remains whether she will keep the moment a secret from Adam or tell him immediately, potentially prompting a very angry and violent reaction from her partner.
