In the peaceful town of Weatherfield, a sinister chain of events is about to unfold. Mason Ratcliffe, a teenager living on Coronation Street, will soon become the victim of a brutal stabbing. And according to sources, this hard-hitting knife crime storyline will have "huge ramifications."
Mason has been living in fear of his thug brothers, who have been targeting him. Fearing for his safety, he plans to leave Weatherfield behind. But his escape plans come too late. Before the horrific event even takes place, Mason has already found himself in trouble with Abi Webster. She catches him stealing heather from Betsy Swan's memorial garden for Betsy's granddaughter. As a result, Betsy is understandably furious when Mason denies any involvement in the death of her granddaughter, Becky. Sally Metcalfe tries to reason with Betsy, reminding her of the difficult position Mason was in when he made the tough decision to call the police on his own family.
Feeling guilty for his past actions, Mason tries to make amends before leaving town. He apologizes to Liam for his past bullying and then heads back to the precinct with his friend Dylan. However, Mason and Dylan are soon pursued by Mason's brothers, who catch up to them and violently attack Mason. Despite Dylan's desperate pleas for them to stop, the brothers continue their assault, leaving Mason in a state of shock.
Meanwhile, Abi is out for a walk in the children's play area when she stumbles upon Mason, bleeding from a stab wound. She quickly takes off her scarf and does her best to stop the bleeding while calling for help. The ambulance arrives and Dylan explains to Asha that Mason has been stabbed by his brothers, Matty and Logan.
Inside the ambulance, Betsy and Abi do their best to comfort Mason, holding his hand and assuring him that he will be okay. But the truth about his fate is being kept under wraps. Show boss Kate Brooks reveals that this storyline will have far-reaching consequences for many characters in Weatherfield.
"It's a really important story to tackle," she says, "because the statistics are so alarming. Knife crime has gone up 80% in the last ten years. We're working closely with the Ben Kinsella Foundation to make sure we're telling the story right and sending the message that carrying a knife out of fear only escalates the situation."
The storyline not only affects Mason, but also his friends Dylan and Betsy, as well as Abi, Tim, and Sally. Kate promises that it will be a hard-hitting and impactful story, and that they are telling it in a unique and bold way.
This is not the only important topic that the show will be addressing in the coming months. Kevin will be diagnosed with testicular cancer, which will bring about more challenges for Abi, on top of her involvement in Mason's stabbing. Kate assures that they are working closely with Macmillan Cancer Support to accurately portray the struggles that Kevin and Abi will face in their relationship.
"This will cause a massive strain on their relationship," she says. "Abi is a strong character, but she's also going through her own turmoil. We wanted to show Kevin being open and unashamed about his diagnosis, and how he and his friends handle the situation. But ultimately, it's about the strength of Kevin and Abi's relationship, which will be put to the test."
As if this wasn't enough drama, temptation will also come Abi's way as she struggles with the aftermath of the stabbing. Despite her love for Kevin, she will be faced with a difficult decision that could further complicate their relationship. It seems that the residents of Weatherfield will have their hands full in the coming months.
