Coronation Street's Betsy Swain embarks on a risky trip to see Logan Radcliffe next week, after she uncovers mysterious information about her late mum Becky.

After Lisa Swain leaves her files lying around, Betsy takes the opportunity to have a snoop.

However, Lisa is mortified to find that her daughter has found them ? and even grabs the box out of her hands. What doesn't she want her to find?

"Betsy being Betsy is just being nosy," explained Sydney Martin, who plays Betsy.

"As she goes to grab one of the boxes, Lisa's very on edge. She can be like that, very stressed and job-focussed, but it makes Betsy question what inside this particular box is so special."

"Their relationship has often been based around lies, there's a lot of times her mum has lied to protect her, but Betsy just wants to be treated like an adult now," Sydney added.

"If snooping in these boxes means she can find out something that her mum's not going to tell her, that's what she's going to do!"

Fascinated, Betsy confronts her mum directly about the private documents. In response, Lisa claims that it holds information about her paternity, and she wants her to wait until she's 18 to see it.

"Lisa tries to fob Betsy off," Sydney revealed. "She says the box contains her paternity results. But their family dynamic isn't about that, her parents are her mums, her dad was just a sperm donor and that doesn't mean anything to Betsy.

"She knows it's something neither of them really care about ? so she's going to dig deeper?"

Subsequently, Carla Connor catches Betsy rifling through her mum's files. But has Betsy found whatever Lisa is so concerned about?

Later in the week, Lisa suggests that she and Betsy share lunch together, but her daughter pretends that she has plans to see Dylan Wilson ? when, in fact, she's due to visit evil Logan Radcliffe in Highfield Prison.

Taking Lauren Bolton along, Betsy admits that she feels nervy ? which should be no surprise given the fact that she's about to meet a convicted criminal?

Meanwhile, Lisa and Carla discover that Betsy can't be with Dylan, after Steve McDonald reveals that she ordered a taxi to the local prison. Having taken matters into her own hands, could Betsy's curiosity land her and Lauren in serious trouble?

Coronation Street's ongoing tension between Maria Connor and Lou Michaelis finally explodes with a horrifying confrontation next week ? resulting in Maria being arrested for assault.

The salon colleagues come to blows after Maria presumes that she's caught Lou stealing during a barbecue hosted by the Platts, with Lou appearing to have been pushed by Maria after she plunges through a coffee table. But is there more to the shocking incident than meets the eye?

"Maria's tried to be tolerant of Lou, but too much has happened," begins our Coronation Street insider.

"Their salon spat a few weeks ago was just the tip of the iceberg ? now Lou's husband Mick is responsible for Craig's death, and traumatised Maria is forced to work with Lou every day.

"Plus, Mick's side of the bed is barely cold and Lou's already sniffing around Maria's other half Gary!"

At the start of the week, Lou seeks out Gary and asks him to help her sell Mick's van. When Maria arrives, Lou quickly makes herself scarce, but the two are forced to work together after David Platt asks Lou to cover his shift at the salon.

As Lou continues to do Maria's head in, the frazzled stylist demands Lou holds the fort while she attends Craig TInker's memorial.

But when Gary explains just how much Craig meant to the community, Lou decides to go to the memorial herself to pay her respects. But how will the locals react to her showing her face?

"Lou showing up to Craig's memorial is a bold move," our source says. "PC Tinker died at the hand of Lou's evil husband, so she really needs to take Gary's advice and show she's sorry for what happened ? but will it be enough?"

Lou unsubtly eavesdrops when Maria and Shona Platt chat about plans for a Platt family barbecue ? prompting Maria to warn Lou to keep her distance. However, Lou refuses to be deterred, and that's the catalyst for disaster.

At the barbecue, Lou clocks an envelope of salon cash in Shona's bag, which Audrey Roberts gave her to take to the bank earlier in the day. Alone inside the house while Nick Tilsley raises a toast outside, Lou contemplates stealing the dosh ? before Maria catches her out.

"Maria jumps to the worst conclusion," our insider reveals. "She channels her inner detective and demands that Lou empty her pockets, certain that Lou's swiped the money.

"The Platts outside are totally unaware of what's going on ? until a loud crash from the living room pulls them away from their burgers and sausage sarnies."

When the Platts pour in, they discover Lou on the floor next to smashed-up furniture, with Maria sinisterly standing over her. So, it's no surprise when Maria is later accosted in the Rovers by the police, who tell her she's being arrested on suspicion of assault.

But did Maria really push Lou?

Debbie Webster's dementia becomes public knowledge on Coronation Street next week ? as she's forced to share her diagnosis with the rest of the family.

With her symptoms getting worse, Debbie ends up in a dangerous situation that forces her to face her fears and confide in her brother Kevin and sister-in-law Abi.

"This is the last thing Debbie wanted," says our Corrie insider. "Pride and privacy have stopped her letting anyone know about her condition ? Carl only found out by accident.

"But people start to notice she's not her usual self so she has to tell them, and not necessarily on her terms."

Hiding the truth about her health has led to heartbreak for Debbie, as it's wrecked her relationship with Ronnie Bailey. Not wanting him to see her decline, Debbie dumped her smitten fella, pretending she'd gone off him.

It's almost impossible for the pair to keep out of each other's way, though, meaning the exes are constantly having awkward encounters as their paths inevitably cross.

Distressed Debbie confides in Bernie Winter about how hard she finds it to even be in the same room as Ronnie since their split.

Instead of cowering in a corner in The Rovers trying to avoid him, Bernie suggests she and Debbie decamp to the Chariot Square bar for a bevvy where they're less likely to bump into him.

However, what is meant to be a relaxing drink takes an unexpected turn when Debbie's condition deteriorates, and her temper boils over?

"Debbie spies Brody boozing with his mates in the hotel bar," our insider continues.

"She knows they're underage and demands Brody produce some ID. When he tries to talk his way out of it, Debbie suddenly sees red and smashes his glass."

Brody's baffled by the business owner's behaviour, not realising it's fuelled by the dementia, which is making her impulsive and unpredictable.

Bernie is also left wondering why Debbie really lost her rag so publicly, convinced it's more than just being worried the hotel would get into bother for serving alcohol to some under 18s.

When Debbie later forgets to pay for her order in the caf?, Bernie fears all is not well with her friend. Debbie tries to carry on as normal and keep her emotions in check, which becomes difficult when she clocks Ronnie sharing a warm moment with Leanne Battersby, leaving her upset.

Unsurprisingly, Debbie begins to feel overwhelmed by recent events and collapses.

Luckily, Carl Webster and Kevin ? with the help of friends and family ? rush to her aid, and when Debbie comes round, big brother Kev insists on taking her to hospital. Realising she can't lie any longer, Debbie finally reveals all.

"Debbie plainly tells Kevin she knows exactly what's wrong with her ? she has dementia," our source says.

"She can't fob him off after passing out. It's a huge bombshell for Kevin, Abi and Ronnie as they struggle to process this shattering news."

Debbie may have more support now the diagnosis is out in the open, but how will the family react if they find out Carl has known for weeks and stayed quiet?

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/cor...brody-mistake/

Coronation Street's Brody Michaelis has a terrifying brush with death next week ? after Lisa Swain arrests him.

Alone in a cell, the teen suffers a seizure that leaves him unconscious, putting his life on the line.

"It's fair to say Brody picks the wrong day to wind up DS Swain," begins our Corrie insider. "Lisa's in no mood for his mischief and comes down hard when he crosses a line.

"However, her impulsive actions inadvertently put the lad in a very dangerous situation ? and there could be huge consequences for all involved."

Since being released from the STC and settling back into life on the outside, Brody hasn't exactly made many friends. His tearaway antics mean most of the locals are doing their best to steer clear of him, but the cocky kid can't help pushing people's buttons.

In the mood to get on someone's nerves, bored Brody targets Daniel Osbourne, who is trying to quietly get on with his day and catch up with some work.

Teasing his former STC teacher, Brody is frustrated when Mr Osbourne refuses to rise to his riling.

Upping his game, he gets more annoying ? and the situation escalates just as a certain copper appears on the scene.

"Daniel is fuming when Brody ends up spilling a drink over his work," reveals our insider. "Brody thinks it's hilarious and just a fun prank, but Lisa has witnessed the whole thing and threatens to arrest him for harassment.

"This sets off a dramatic chain of events, and pretty soon there's definitely nothing to laugh about?"

Carla Connor arrives to the shocking sight of Lisa slapping handcuffs on stunned Brody, which even she can see is a somewhat harsh response.

Swain never suffers fools gladly, but has something else gone on that day to make her especially uptight? And is Brody unfairly bearing the brunt of her anger?

Dragging the delinquent down to the station, livid Lisa tells Brody to empty his pockets, and he produces a bottle of pills. Surly Swain immediately assumes they're some sort of recreational drug, not realising Brody has epilepsy.

The lad recently confided in Kit Green about his condition after he was found lying in an alleyway having a seizure. Brody was honest with Kit, but explained that it's something he chooses to keep on the down-low.

Mortified that Lisa has now seen his medication while being interrogated, Brody refuses to explain what the pills are ? so the bottle is confiscated as he's chucked in the slammer.

"Brody panics when he's locked up without his tablets," our source adds. "He shouts out to Lisa he really needs the pills but he still won't say why. Lisa ignores him, thinking she's teaching him a lesson, but later Brody has a seizure and collapses to the floor."

Will unconscious Brody be found in time? And what consequences could there be for Lisa taking medication from a minor?
