Why is Craig shot in Coronation Street?

Corrie viewers know that Scott has been planning to scam Ray and his mates for weeks in the ITV soap. 

And next week’s episodes of Coronation Street will see Scott put the wheels of his evil plan in motion as Ray organises entertainment for some investors in the Bistro and asks Faye to act as hostess.

Later, Ray has a poker game in full swing when a masked Scott bursts into the Bistro and, pointing his gun at Faye, orders everyone to do as he says. 

Craig hears the call and, despite knowing he should get back-up from his colleagues, rushes into the Bistro to help Faye.

As Scott grabs Ray's cash and tries to head for the exit, Craig springs into action and attacks Scott with a chair.

But disaster strikes when the gun goes off and he slumps to the floor as Scott runs away.

With Craig's life hanging by a thread, will he survive?

However, there’s no word yet of actor Colson Smith - who plays Craig in the soap - leaving the cobbles any time soon.
