Coronation Street has teased that a number of shocking home truths look set to threaten some of Weatherfield's most-loved families, even though viewers may already be in the know.
Fans of the ITV soap, which is filmed in Salford, are eagerly awaiting to find out what is ahead for those on the famous cobbles this Christmas. A new Corrie promo has given viewers a first look at the drama ahead in the coming days and weeks.
Kit Green's Baby Secret
As viewers already know, Bethany Platt is battling the mother of all secrets, having fallen pregnant by her mum Sarah's boyfriend Kit Green. The pair had a controversial one-night stand while Sarah was behind bars for the murder of Theo Silverton, and had called off her relationship with Kit to spare him from the ordeal.
In recent days, Corrie fans have seen Sarah and Kit rekindle their romance, and it was after this that the detective discovered Bethany's pregnancy news - and that he's the father of her unborn child.
However, while undergoing treatment for male breast cancer, an exhausted Kit is struggling with the burden of carrying their secret and questions whether the right thing to do would be to reveal the consequences of their one-night stand. Desperate not to risk her relationship with her mum, Bethany begs Kit to keep quiet.
Fiz Dobbs Digs Into Ross Wilkes
The new promo, which is available to watch on YouTube, also focuses on the family feud at the Dobbs, as we see Fiz determined to unmask Tyrone's dad, Ross Wilkes, for the evil bully that he is.
Since Ross arrived on the scene, having previously been estranged from his son, he's been on a mission to oust Tyrone's mum Cassie Plummer, discredit Fiz and take control of the family.
But just when he thought he'd got Cassie out of the picture, Fiz starts doing some digging, and when she unearths Cassie's passport lying in Ross' car, she starts asking some difficult questions about Cassie's disappearance.
What Lies Ahead
As secrets are put to the test and guilty consciences rattled, the question remains whether the truth will come out for the Platts and the Dobbs.
