It's been quite a while since Bethany Platt left Coronation Street to pursue a career in journalism in London. But a lot has happened in Weatherfield since then. When she returns in the new year, she'll have to catch up quickly!
When Bethany left, she was heartbroken after falling for Daniel Osbourne, only to realize he wasn't ready to move on from the death of his wife Sinead. Since then, Daniel has become engaged to Daisy Midgeley, but now their relationship is in question after Daisy admitted to having feelings for Ryan Connor, who she also slept with.
The reappearance of Bethany is sure to stir things up even more, but according to Lucy Fallon, who plays Bethany, the two could eventually form a close bond. She explains that because they are both strong female characters, they will clash at first, but she can't imagine Bethany will stay out to get Daisy for long.
Before that happens, Lucy has been having fun playing Bethany's feistier side as she clashes with Daisy. It's a different side to Bethany, one that has come out again now that she's back.
Of course, Bethany missed a lot while she was away, including the revelation that her great uncle Stephen Reid was a murderer who had stolen all the factory money, killed three people, broken Audrey's heart and left Tim Metcalfe for dead - before being killed himself in a car accident.
When Bethany hears about this, she makes a few jokes, which her mother Gail finds insensitive. But this could be related to whatever she was doing in London - according to Lucy, Bethany has been forced to come back but is keeping the reason why a secret.
Looking ahead, Lucy is hoping for drama in the months to come. She'd like to see Bethany and Daisy become friends, pursue her journalism career, and have some drama - however, she isn't sure what kind yet!
