Viewers are currently in the dark about a mystery kidnapper and an unidentified attacker

The scheduling change comes as a result of the Britain's Got Talent semi-final week airing between 7;30pm and 10pm with a 30 minute slot at 9pm for an episode of Corrie.
In the past, the soap has pushed the boundaries and has often seen the closing of long-running stories take effect during the epic week.
Whilst in very recent years, focus has shifted toward ITV's Super Soap Week in October, Coronation Street fans think they have rumbled bosses plans for the BGT week and it seems that they are planning to ramp things back up once again.
Their theories all centre on Sarah Platt and a cryptic quote she made during the show's latest episode.

Viewers have taken her comments about the evil Nathan Curtis as a foreshadowing clue that he will be killed off.
In the episode, Sarah could be seen chatting to her ex Gary about Bethany's fears that Nathan Curtis could be behind Lauren Bolton's diappearance.
Nathan famously groomed Bethany as part of a harrowing storyline and he is now back in Weatherfield wreaking havoc once more following his release from prison.
Discussing her hatred for Nathan, Sarah made a very telling comment which appeared to seal the villain's fate.
