Carla was taken aback when she learned about Lisa's past. The two women have a complicated history, as Lisa is the sister of Carla's ex-husband Paul and they are also distant cousins. It's a bit confusing, I know.
Their connection goes back to 2008 when Lisa's brother, Liam, was killed in a hit and run orchestrated by Carla's fiancé at the time, Tony Gordon. Tony had discovered that Carla and Liam were having an affair and threatened to tell Liam's wife, Maria Connor. This devastating event left both women heartbroken, as they had both loved the same man.
In tonight's episode, as the investigation into Lauren Bolton's murder continues, emotions are running high for DS Lisa Swain. She breaks down in tears, overwhelmed by the pressures of her personal and professional life. Carla notices her distress when returning her police ID badge and later accuses her of not devoting enough attention to freeing Roy Cropper, who has been wrongly imprisoned for the crime.
Lisa is deeply hurt by Carla's accusation and later has a tense phone conversation with her daughter about their upcoming move. Carla jumps into Lisa's car and urges her to speak in a personal capacity. Lisa introduces herself as Lisa for the first time and opens up about the loss of her wife, Becky, two and a half years ago. She also shares her concerns about their daughter, who is skipping school to get drunk.
Lisa reveals that Lauren's case has made her reflect on her relationship with her daughter and how determined she is to find the killer. Carla sympathizes with her grief, sharing that she has never truly gotten over the loss of Liam. The two women connect over their shared pain.
In a moment of clarity, Lisa meets with Roy and asks him for the truth about the statement Carla's nephew, Bobby, made about the masked intruder he saw on the day Lauren disappeared. It was later revealed that Bobby had fabricated the story in hopes of freeing Roy. With Carla's cooperation, there is a possibility that they could both be arrested for perverting the course of justice.
Lisa goes to the flat to arrest Bobby, who maintains his innocence. But Lisa sees through his story and asks Carla to get him to come clean so they can focus on finding the real killer. Carla is furious at the thought of Roy being found guilty and the case being closed. She lashes out at Lisa, who then opens up about the events surrounding her wife's death.
As a police officer, Becky was determined to solve a crime in order to train as a detective. However, her partner's interference caused a huge argument between them, and it turned out to be their final conversation before she was killed on the job.
Actress Vicky Myers, who plays Lisa, has recently signed a permanent contract with Coronation Street, so we can expect to see more of her in the future. But what role will Carla play in her personal life? Only time will tell.
