Coronation Street Spoilers 2024

Coronation Street's producer Iain MacLeod has discussed the show's plans for Lauren Bolton heading into 2024.
The ITV soap introduced Cait Fitton as Lauren last year, when the troubled character played a role in Max Turner's far-right extremism storyline. She returned as a show regular in summer this year.
Speaking about Lauren's future on a recent press call, MacLeod told Digital Spy and other media: "There's definitely more to come from her. She'll have quite a big role to play next year.
"I think the way Cait fits in is absolutely marvellous ? in the best tradition of those tearaway characters that do so well. They go and live in Roy's house or work in his caf?. My mind is drawn to characters like Fiz and Becky McDonald. I think Lauren is very much in that mould."
He continued: "So there's more to come. We'll see a complexity to her character that maybe we weren't aware of. We'll now explore all the different elements of Cait's range.
"She's quite punchy and she's quite funny. We'll see her get to be in quite a romantic set of stories, but she will continue to be quite troubled.
"There is more to come from Lauren as Roy's next project and in her own right."
Viewers recently saw Ryan Connor move in with Lauren in a flat at the Weatherfield Precinct.
Their friendship turned sour within weeks when Ryan wanted to move out again and Lauren blackmailed him to stay, using her knowledge of his affair with Daisy Midgeley to her advantage.
Cait recently explained: "Lauren has never had any stability in her life. She's gone from being with her dad in Griff's flat to being at home with her mum, being homeless then being put in Audrey's salon, going to Max's and then finally having her own flat.
"Now that she's in her own flat, she is looking for someone to share it with. Lauren just needs to be loved but most importantly, loved by herself, which was something that Ryan was helping her with."
