Coronation Street's Roy Cropper faces a terrifying showdown with Griff Reynolds next week.

The fan favourite finds himself in terrible danger when Griff decides that he must be guilty of Lauren Bolton's murder.

Roy is currently being held on remand at the prison after being arrested and charged over Lauren's presumed death.

Later this week, there's a worrying turn of events for Roy when Griff is transferred back to Weatherfield Prison. The villain has links to Lauren, whose father Reece was part of his far-right gang.

The story takes centre stage in next week's special week for Corrie, which sees the soap air every evening at 7.30pm.

Roy's week gets off to a bad start when he heads into his cell and finds that the book he's been reading has been deliberately damaged. The book lies soaked in tea and has a broken spine, in an apparent warning from Griff.

Before long, Griff makes his presence felt again by entering Roy's prison cell and snooping around.

Later, Griff instructs fellow prisoner Roscoe to lure Roy to the jail's library. An oblivious Roy goes along with Roscoe's invitation, giving Griff the opportunity to enter his empty cell once more.

Once Roy heads back from the library, he's unsettled to find Griff waiting for him.

Griff pulls out a weapon and menacingly orders Roy to reveal what he did with Lauren's body.

Roy refuses to confess to a murder he didn't commit, so Griff holds the makeshift knife to his throat and orders him to say his last words.

Is it the end for Roy, or can Griff be stopped before he commits another evil crime?

Next week's big week for Corrie sees the show air before the Britain's Got Talent live shows each evening.

Coronation Street airs these scenes on Thursday, May 30.

Coronation Street has confirmed that next week's special episodes will centre around the Lauren Bolton mystery.

Fans can expect answers at last following three months of uncertainty about what happened to Lauren and who is responsible.

Corrie airs nightly from Monday to Friday next week, with a 30-minute episode each evening at 7.30pm.

The special schedule coincides with ITV airing the live Britain's Got Talent semi-final rounds, continuing the long tradition of the two shows screening side-by-side.

Corrie's big week sees Bethany Platt continue with her mission to prove that evil Nathan Curtis is responsible for Lauren's murder.

Sarah struggles with seeing her daughter at breaking point, so she makes another bold move to try and get rid of Nathan for good.

New detective Kit Green catches Sarah trying to plant evidence in Nathan's work van. He urges her not to play games like this and let the police do their jobs.

However, events soon take a new twist when the police find evidence of their own which could finally put Nathan in the frame.

A show statement teased: "Just as it looks like Swain and Kit are about to crack the case, the audience will be hit with a bolt out of the blue as a new piece of evidence reveals who Lauren's killer really is!

"Have the police got their man in Nathan, or is a predator still at large?"

Corrie's five-night week airing alongside Britain's Got Talent is an annual tradition for the show and always features the climax to a big storyline.

Last year's big week focused on Justin Rutherford's trial for Ryan Connor's acid attack, while 2022's dramatic episodes featured Imran Habeeb's tragic exit.

Emmerdale is also affected by next week's changes as it'll be returning to its old timeslot of 7pm for the week.

Meanwhile, Bethany is convinced that Nathan is to blame for Lauren?s murder and seeing her daughter at breaking point, Sarah takes a bold move to try and get rid of Bethany?s sex offender ex for good.

Speaking about the special week of episodes, Executive Producer Iain MacLeod said: "This week is so gripping and unlike anything Coronation Street has done before, in terms of the story-telling. It's modern, really exciting and has some of our favourite characters right in the middle of the drama."

Why am I now expecting the absolute opposite?
