Coronation Street bosses are promising some dramatic times ahead at the factory with the release of this new teaser picture.
It'll be all change at Underworld over the coming weeks as Carla Connor makes her dramatic departure from the cobbles, leaving her father Johnny and half-brother Aidan to fully take over the business.
There are plenty of tears and turmoil ahead for Carla before she goes, as her nemesis Tracy Barlow will resume her attempts to blackmail her.
Still armed with the knowledge of Carla's one-night stand with Robert Preston, Tracy holds all the cards despite her recent promises to back off. With Carla's wedding to Nick Tilsley fast approaching, it's surely only a matter of time before their fragile happiness is destroyed.

Once Carla is gone, Aidan's girlfriend Eva Price will remain closely involved at Underworld as their relationship continues to blossom, while Johnny also has his eye on a member of staff in the form of Jenny Bradley. Given her colourful history, could Jenny spark even more drama?
Aidan's sister Kate isn't safe from potential fireworks either, as she finds herself wondering who is the right girl for her following her recent kiss with Sophie Webster. As her own wedding to Caz Hammond draws nearer, Kate will have to make a final choice between her friend and her fiancée.
It's not just the Connors themselves who'll be taking centre stage, as Izzy Armstrong's cannabis storyline also continues. Izzy is currently using the drug for pain relief, but when the law catches up with her once again, her future at Underworld could be called into question.
Sean Tully's happy relationship with Billy Mayhew looks set to be rocked when a mysterious face from the local vicar's past arrives on the cobbles. It soon becomes clear that Billy has secrets that he desperately wants to hold onto, but could they mark the end for him and Sean?

Fiz Stape is one Weatherfield resident who needs to concentrate on work more than most, as her debts are still piling up at home. As the financial pressure remains a worry, could this tear her apart from her loveable partner Tyrone Dobbs?
Things are looking brighter for Sinead Tinker as she continues to live out her modelling dream at Underworld, with support from her auntie Beth. She clearly loves her new career, but with her boyfriend Chesney Brown growing increasingly jealous, could this put a dampener on things?

Alya Nazir's ambitious streak will also re-emerge following Carla's departure as she harbours hopes of stepping into her shoes. Does she have what it takes to succeed, or will Underworld remain strictly a family affair for the close-knit Connors?
It's not all doom and gloom, as the antics of Sally Metcalfe are sure to raise a smile - at least for the viewers. Now that she's been elected as a local councillor, Sally's snobbery will reach new heights - but could this lead to tensions at work and put pressure on her marriage to Tim? Either way, her behaviour is sure to raise a few chuckles among fans.

A Coronation Street spokesperson teased: "Whatever happens, there'll be a lot more going on than just knicker stitching at Underworld this spring."
