Rita was taken aback as she heard the shocking news. She couldn't believe that her long-time friend and fellow resident of Coronation Street, Mary Taylor, would soon find out that their new neighbor was the son of a convicted murderer. It was just days after Carla Connor's marriage to Peter Barlow had fallen apart, and now she was facing new troubles in the form of her estranged nephew, Bobby Crawford. Bobby had been kicked out by his mother and was now searching for his father, only to discover that he was none other than the heartless killer, Rob Donovan, who was currently serving time in prison.
Rob had passed on the responsibility of taking care of Bobby to Carla, and until now, the young man had been led to believe that his father was innocent and had acted in self-defense. However, as viewers may remember, Rob was the one who had pushed beloved barmaid Tina McIntyre off the builder's yard balcony and brutally attacked her with a metal pipe, all to cover up his illegal activities with his then-girlfriend, Tracy Barlow, at their second-hand shop, Barlow's Buys. This had been a major whodunit storyline for the show, with four suspects in the mix - Rob, Tracy, Carla, and Peter.
As Bobby settled into his new life on the street and landed a job at Underworld, it was only a matter of time before he learned the truth about his father's actions. With so many people remembering Tina, it was inevitable that the truth would come out. Next week, inquisitive neighbors Rita and Mary cornered Bobby, curious about his past and his parentage. Bobby was happy to share his story with the women, not realizing that it would leave them shocked and disgusted.
Bobby couldn't understand why they reacted so strongly when he revealed his father's identity, so he turned to his aunt Carla for answers. He was devastated to learn that his father had lied about Tina's death, and he had been living with a murderer all this time. This news left him questioning his own future and the impact of his father's actions on his life.
Meanwhile, other events were taking place on the street, including a heartbreaking suicide and a hospital dash for a bullied teenager. Will Mellor, a familiar face to Corrie fans, also returned to the show and was immediately thrown into a scandalous storyline. As the drama continues to unfold, viewers are left wondering how Bobby will handle this shocking truth and what it means for his relationships with Carla and the rest of the street's residents.
