Carla Connor had a big decision to make in Coronation Street - one that involved spending Christmas with her new love interest, DS Lisa Swain. It was a tough choice for Carla, as it meant leaving her best friend behind for the holiday season. But after months of trying to deny their feelings, Carla and Lisa finally made things official. In tonight's episode, they took full advantage of the Chariot Square Hotel's couples spa deals.
Their romantic getaway was almost ruined when hotel owner Debbie Webster caught them together. She commented on how lovely it was to see friends enjoying the treatments, but Lisa quickly corrected her, leaving Carla feeling hurt. After their pampering session, Lisa couldn't resist making a snarky remark about them only being "just mates". Carla explained that she didn't want their relationship to be revealed through gossip from Debbie, and when she affectionately kissed Lisa's neck, the detective reassured her that she didn't need to prove anything.
Carla then confided in Lisa that she preferred to keep their relationship a secret for now, until they were both ready to share it with the world. However, she promised to go public if that was what Lisa wanted. Lisa agreed to take things at Carla's pace, and also shared her plans for Christmas - which included spending it with Carla instead of her own family.
Carla was thrilled by Lisa's gesture and explained that her brother Ryan Connor was going to Ireland to spend Christmas with their sister Michelle Connor. Carla had also been invited, but she preferred to spend the holiday with Lisa. Lisa happily accepted and they made plans to have a relaxed day in their pajamas, ordering takeout instead of cooking a traditional turkey dinner.
But will their unconventional Christmas go as planned? According to producer Kate Brooks, it will be a special time for Carla and Lisa as they declare their love for each other and fully commit to their relationship. They will finally stop circling each other and just be together. And despite Carla's initial hesitation about people gossiping, she will realize that everyone is accepting and supportive of their relationship.
Brooks also teased that there will be plenty of touching and hair-tossing between the two as they enjoy the holiday season together.
