Coronation Street builder Jason Grimshaw will publicly accuse Karl Munro of starting the Rovers Return fire next month.

Jason (Ryan Thomas) reveals his suspicions to everyone at the pub, in a desperate bid to convince his ex-lover Stella Price (Michelle Collins) that she shouldn't marry Karl.

When Jason and Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) finally realise that Karl snuck out of the Bistro's Full Monty night to start the blaze in March, they face a frantic bid to stop Stella from making a terrible mistake.

John Michie, who plays Karl, told All About Soap: "Karl just hates Jason with a passion, and equally Jason despises Karl too. I think Karl is more wound up by Jason than threatened by him. Jason knows exactly how to push Karl's buttons, especially where Stella is involved."

On Jason's accusation, the actor continued: "[Karl is] nervous, but at the same time, he believes people will just think Jason's being an idiot and is out to get Karl. It does wind him up, but he's very good at covering that."

Although Karl tries to appear as calm as possible, he makes plans to take Stella on honeymoon to Spain and never come back, realising that his days are numbered if he stays in Weatherfield after the wedding.

Michie added: "He borrows a bit of money from his friend and books two cheap flights to Spain for their honeymoon. Stella might think that he's got them a nice hotel, but sadly he hasn't. Karl's only concern at that moment is getting them the hell out of Weatherfield very quickly!"

Coronation Street airs these scenes - which build up to Karl's dramatic exit - on Monday, September 9 on ITV.

Is this week the wedding?

Coming up on Coronation Street, the pressure on Karl Munro intensifies as Craig Tinker goes missing.

Craig does a disappearing act as he is struggling to cope with his guilt over the Rovers Return fire and the threats that Karl (John Michie) has been making.

Beth and Kirk are baffled as Craig leaves a note behind asking them to apologise to Dev Alahan on his behalf, wondering what it could all mean.

Once Craig has been missing for an entire night and there's still no sign of him, concern escalates and the police start quizzing anyone who had a connection to him.

As Karl's surprise 'friendship' with Craig hasn't gone unnoticed, officers arrive at The Rovers to find out what he knows.

Karl desperately tries to play down his link to Craig, insisting that he doesn't know anything, but inside he's feeling increasingly cornered. Is this the beginning of the end for him?

Karl is panic-stricken.

Coronation Street airs these scenes on Sunday, September 8 at 7pm on ITV.

Sunday

Karl is panic-stricken when the police come calling about Craig's disappearance. Wondering how much they know, Karl tries to remain cool and plays down his links to Craig, but inside he's feeling increasingly cornered.

At the same time, Dev and Jason are trying to work out the meaning of Craig's note, speculating about the connection between him and Karl. As a desperate Karl tries to focus on his wedding, will they hit upon the answer?

Meanwhile, the factory girls visit Hayley in hospital and are just the tonic she needs. Roy, however, is struggling to come to terms with the sucker-punch to his life and can't bring himself to open up the café.

Elsewhere, David and Kylie are making a fuss of Max for his birthday, but when they start discussing Lily's christening, he goes into a mood again. Will a birthday tea cheer him up or does David have another idea?

Also, Audrey looks forward to getting her house back to normal.

arl is spooked to see that Craig is ringing him and slips out to take the call, finding out where Craig is. With Beth beside herself with worry, Karl sets out and finds Craig living rough.

Craig tells Karl that he's going to hand himself into the police. Can Karl convince a tormented Craig to return to the street and keep schtum, or does he face killing again to keep his secret uncovered?

Meanwhile, Hayley enjoys a visit from the factory girls, determined to stay upbeat and insisting that she will be around to see Carla's wedding. Trying to remain positive, she tells Roy that there are so many things she wants to do with life and she's thinking of constructing a bucket list.

Elsewhere, both Kylie and Max are delighted when David suggests that he should adopt Max. However, as David brims with mixed emotions - so desperate to cement his family together - his guilt overwhelms him and he goes to visit Nick at the hospital.

Also, Owen has bad news for Audrey.

Monday

It's the eve of Stella and Karl's wedding. Karl is a bundle of nerves, fearing it's only a matter of time before Craig reveals his secret, especially as the lads Craig has wrongly accused of bullying him are now on his back.

Jason and Dev are also onto Karl. While Dev tries to speak to Beth about Craig's note, Jason questions those who were at the Full Monty night over Karl's movements that evening. When Tommy doesn't remember seeing much of Karl, Jason seizes on this, sure they're onto something.

Later, as Karl tells Stella he's booked a honeymoon in Spain, Jason makes it clear to Karl that if he has anything to do with it, there won't be a wedding. As Karl starts to unravel, will he run or stay and face the music?

Meanwhile, as a fragile Hayley returns home, she's determined to stay positive. Top of her list is to teach Roy to drive.

Elsewhere, Sally is late for work after a night of passion with Tim, and as she fields questions about her love life, it's clear she's revelling in the attention. But how will Tim react when Sally asks him to be her plus one at Stella's wedding?

Also, when Maria agrees that Audrey can stay with them until the work on her house is complete, Marcus is put out.

As Karl is dragged away from Craig's 'school bullies', having clearly lost it with them, Stella is unnerved by his behaviour. Back at the pub, she demands answers. Karl lies, blaming pre-wedding nerves. As Stella heads to Leanne's flat for her hen night, will she be placated?

Later at The Rovers, Jason's presence is needling Karl as he and Dev pour over photos of the Full Monty night, noticing that Karl disappeared in the middle. Confronting Karl, Jason outright accuses him of setting fire to the pub. With all eyes on Karl, how will he respond?

Meanwhile, as Hayley is welcomed home by some of her closest friends, she enjoys catching up on what she's missed. Hayley is clearly exhausted but urges Roy not to pussyfoot around her, as she wants to savour every moment and make the most of the time she has left.

Elsewhere, Sally has landed with a bump after her morning spent on cloud nine, as Tim makes it clears he's just looking for a bit of fun. But when Tyrone warns Tim not to mess Sally around as there's no half-way with her, will he have a change of heart?

Also, Audrey's presence in the flat wears thin on Marcus.

Wednesday

As a nervous Karl prepares for his big day, Jason wants to go to Stella with his accusations. However, Dev urges him to sit tight until he's spoken to Craig, as they need proof. Craig is finally ready to talk, but Dev is shocked when - with Beth and Kirk by his side - Craig reveals his belief that he started the fire and Karl has been forcing him to keep it secret.

As Craig explains that he dropped a cigarette when he saw Karl coming out of the pub that night, the penny drops for Dev. Will he be able to get to the register office in time to stop Stella from marrying Karl?

Meanwhile, Sally is dolled up to the nines as she waits for Tim to escort her to Stella's wedding reception, but as time ticks away, it looks like Tim has stood her up.

Elsewhere, Marcus isn't happy when he overhears Audrey painting a bleak picture of life at the flat, but Maria is more worried about Audrey's unusually uptight behaviour. Is there something else on her mind?

Also today, Anna frets about making a good impression on Faye's new best friend Grace.

Friday

Jason calls the police, and with Beth and Kirk by his side, Craig prepares to make a statement about what he saw on the night of the Rovers fire.

At the same time, Dev has arrived at the register office and glares at the man he now knows killed Sunita. Will he reveal Karl's secret and ruin the day that Karl has risked so much for?

Meanwhile, as Jenna tries to cheer Sally up with a bottle of wine and a DVD, she reminds Sally that she can do better than Tim. Jenna urges her not to give him the benefit of the doubt by calling him, but can Sally resist?

Elsewhere, after another run-in with Marcus over conditions at the flat, Audrey breaks down and admits life is getting on top of her at the moment.

Also, Anna is impressed with Faye's new friend Grace, but decides Number 6 needs a makeover.

Will Karl achieve the dream he's risked everything for and get away to Spain with Stella? Or will the police come calling as the net closes in?

Meanwhile, Sally is gutted when she receives a dismissive text from Tim, who clearly doesn't feel any guilt about standing her up. Is it all over between them?

Elsewhere, when Audrey hints that running two properties at her age is getting too much, Owen expresses an interest in the flat. Will Audrey bite?

Also, Grace makes a good impression on Owen and Anna, but when Faye admits to Grace how much she hates Sally, will we see another side to Grace?

Yay Karl finally caught should be a good week

cant wait for stella and her clan to discover the truth

Coronation Street star John Michie has said that he is pleased with his exit from the soap.

Michie's character Karl Munro will bow out of the show in dramatic fashion next week as he finally gets his comeuppance for starting the Rovers Return fire.

Michie said to the Yorkshire Evening Post: "I said to the new producer, 'Please, I know Karl has to go but I hope it's not strung out for too long'.

"I'd rather have a short, sharp, quick ending. Because sometimes I think stories are strung out and people begin to lose interest.

"It was good to go down the villain route, without being a crazy serial killer. Because let's face it, you don't get many of them in suburban Britain."

It was announced back in July that Michie would be joining the cast of Holby City to play the part of neurosurgeon Guy Self.

Michie said: "It's a complete change - from scally to surgeon. It's quite a leap from Corrie. I've never done medical drama before."

Coronation Street airs Karl's final scenes on Friday, September 13 at 8.30pm.
