As avid viewers of Coronation Street, we all know that waiting patiently is not our strong suit. It's a trait we all share, unfortunately. And the wait to finally meet DS Swain's daughter, Betsy, has been particularly challenging. She's been quite the enigma, and we've been eagerly anticipating her introduction to the show.
It feels like forever ago when it was confirmed that Vicky Myers' tough-as-nails detective character would become a regular on the show, with the added promise of introducing her troubled teenage daughter. Recently, we had the opportunity to sit down with newcomer Sydney Martin, who plays Betsy, and ask her all the burning questions we've been dying to know.
As fans may recall, we were first introduced to Betsy as Sabrina's friend, when she gave Joel Deering a disapproving look that said it all. Sydney confirmed to us that Betsy is not one to be fooled by Joel's smooth-talking lawyer facade. She knows he can't be trusted, especially after his disturbing behavior towards Sabrina. In fact, Betsy takes it upon herself to warn her friend and even uses the opportunity to make some cash off of Joel. She's not afraid to stand up to him and make her own rules.
It's no surprise that Sydney is thrilled to be taking on such a complex and interesting character. Betsy is a force to be reckoned with, and her mistrust of Joel is just the tip of the iceberg. She has a complicated relationship with her mother, Lisa, who is also a detective. But Betsy's rebellious nature and desire for power may lead her down some questionable paths.
Despite their strained relationship, Lisa and Betsy share a strong bond of love. The loss of Lisa's partner, who was killed in the line of duty, has deeply affected Betsy, and it's evident in her feisty and cocky demeanor. She's intelligent like her mother, but it's unclear if she will use it for good or her own personal gain. One thing is for sure, she's a lot of fun to play and has many layers that will be revealed as the story unfolds.
Betsy's journey will also intersect with Carla Connor, the formidable queen of the factory. Betsy will start working at the factory through a program set up by her mother, and she wastes no time in pushing Carla's buttons. But when Betsy gets her hands on some juicy information about Carla, she doesn't hesitate to use it to her advantage. She's not afraid to do whatever it takes to get what she wants, even if it means crossing paths with some familiar faces.
As for what's next for Betsy, Sydney teased that she may mix with some younger characters and hinted at some mischief to come. But one thing is for sure, we can expect a lot of excitement and drama from this fiery and determined young woman. Our gut tells us that Betsy will make quite the impact on the cobbled streets of Weatherfield.
