Coronation Street’s Dylan Wilson (Liam McCheyne) faces a future behind bars next week when he’s sent down over his unfortunate role in Mason Radcliffe’s (Luca Toolan) death. As fans of the ITV soap will remember, Dylan started carrying a knife last year to protect himself.

When he later found himself in a confrontation with Matty and Logan Radcliffe (Seamus McGoff and Harry Lowbridge), their brother Mason stepped in to defend him, but they turned on him and stabbed him with Dylan’s knife. While Matty was later sent down – and Logan going on the run – Dylan found himself facing criminal charges, and next week’s episodes see him prepare for his day in court.

After she assures him that she’ll visit him in prison, Betsy leans in for a kiss and he kisses her back. In court, Dylan becomes emotional when he tells the judge how he only meant to scare Mason’s brothers with the knife, but when the judge asserts that he should be up for the more serious crime of making threats with a knife, Sean and Dylan are horrified.
His brief Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) then delivers a devastating blow that Dylan could be looking at a two-year sentence. The judge then confirms Dylan will serve a sentence in the secure training centre – but how long will he get?. With several cast departures already confirmed in the coming months, could this sentence also pave the way for an exit from Dylan too?.
Sue Devaney as Debbie Webster. Fans have been left distraught at news of Debbie's upcoming departure, with the character being written out as part of a storyline focusing on dementia. A source told Metro: 'It’s one of the show’s biggest storylines of the year, and a real chance for Sue to finally get her time in the spotlight – it will just be devastating for fans that it will effectively be her final storyline.
‘It’s one of many major storylines new boss Kate Brooks has in the bag, and there will not be a dry eye in the house. ‘There is no doubt in the Corrie family that she will give the performance of a lifetime and make Debbie’s exit one to remember for years.’.
Sue Cleaver as Eileen Grimshaw. Loose Women and I'm A Celebrity star Sue has been central to the show for two and a half decades but now she will be saying goodbye. She confirmed: ‘I’ve had 25 privileged years of working on Coronation Street.’. ‘The door is still firmly open, but as I reached my 60th year, I decided it was time to embrace change, look for new adventures, and live fearlessly.'.
Colson Smith as Craig Tinker. After 14 years, Corrie has decided to also write out police officer Craig, with the actor sharing his love for the show on social media following the decision, delivered to him last year. He said: 'I've loved every single second of my 14-year stay as a resident on the greatest street in the world. I feel incredibly lucky to have grown up in, on and around Coronation Street.
'I've learnt pretty much everything about life from the people who call it home. I'm excited to play out the exit story for our Craigy. For me, this is just the end of the beginning. 'I genuinely can't wait to see what chapter 2 has in store for me. Long live the cobbles!'.
Charlotte Jordan as Daisy Midgeley. After a very busy four years on the show, Daisy is set to leave as part of a currently to-secret explosive storyline, with Charlotte keen to try other projects. She said in a statement: 'My time at Coronation Street is something I’ll always cherish.
'After a brilliant four years for Daisy, it’s time for me to start a new chapter and explore other opportunities. 'It’s been a privilege to be part of a wonderful institution with even more wonderful colleagues who have taught me so much.'. Shelley King as Yasmeen Metcalfe.
After 10 years, Yasmeen will be departing the cobbles - and she has already filmed her final scenes in December, so expect her last episode soon. Metro understands that she won't be killed off. A show insider has clarified: ‘Shelley spoke to producers early last year and advised that after 10 years on the show and being involved in many major storylines during the past decade she had decided the time has come for her to explore other opportunities.
‘Shelley is an accomplished stage and television actress and we fully understand her desire to take her career in another direction after 10 years playing the same role. ‘She filmed her final scenes in December.’. Paddy Bever as Max Turner. With Paddy having filmed his final scenes, it is expected he will leave in spring.
‘After much reflection and in an incredibly difficult decision, I have chosen to step away from Max, and Coronation Street, to explore new opportunities. I have been surrounded by such kindness and support every step of the way, Paddy, 22, said in a statement.
