Coronation Street to confirm Lauren Bolton's killer in five-night week

Coronation Street spoilers follow.

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.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
