Coronation Street's Tracy Barlow is in for a very eventful festive fortnight when her lies over Rob Donovan catch up with her.
Recent episodes have seen Tracy visit Rob in prison, where she has fallen for a devious scheme he has concocted in order to ruin her happiness with current boyfriend Robert Preston.
As Tracy continues to visit Rob and even starts to plan a future with him, she will be forced to reconsider her options when she stumbles across an engagement ring in Robert's pocket.
Realising that Robert is going to propose, Tracy is then given food for thought when she realises just how much of a positive impact he is having on both her and her daughter Amy.
However, after opting for a safer future with Robert, Tracy is left horrified when he gets down on one knee in the Rovers and demands to know why she has told Rob that she is planning to spend the rest of her life with him.
Viewers will see Rob inform Robert of Tracy's betrayal in the days leading up to Christmas, but will she be able to explain herself? Or have her lies left her out in the cold once again?
Kate Ford, who plays Tracy, said: "I don't think she ever gets to the point where she's 100% [over who to choose], but on Christmas Day she overhears a conversation between Amy and Robert, where Amy's saying, 'My mum's a nicer person when she's with you, I really wish you could be my second dad'.
"Tracy thinks she'd be a fool not to accept his proposal but I think still at the back of her mind there's Rob. When people say you can love two different people at the same, I think Tracy's got that going on - she loves them both for different reasons."
Speaking about who she thinks Tracy would prefer to be with, Ford said: "She never openly makes up her mind, but if she's honest with herself I think she'd prefer to be with Rob.
"There was something special with Rob that she's not had with anyone else. She felt it about Steve but part of that was because she couldn't have him, it became a bit of an obsession, whereas with Rob it was the real thing, he was the love of her life.
"I think Robert's just not got that bad boy thing going on but apparently that's going to change so we'll see."
With her future with Robert looking bleak, Tracy will then turn her attentions back to Rob, but how will she feel if he comes clean about his scheming?
Ford said: "She'd be gutted. Rob has the potential to not only break her heart but to ruin her chances of happiness with Robert as well.
"If she lost Robert and gained Rob as a result, I think she could deal with that, but if she ends up losing both of them then it will be horrific for her. Rob has the potential to ruin her life, which has actually been going quite well."
