This is not 300 and this isn’t Sparta; it’s Carla vs. Becky, which feels like it’s gone on just as long… Corrie airs Wednesday, December 10th, 2025, on ITV1 at 8pm
(Video STV/ Corrie) Carla appears to be drowning her sorrows over Lisa, when Becky arrives, smirking at the pathetic state of her nemesis. It looks like a seemingly vulnerable Carla is in danger.
BECKY HAS CARLA RIGHT WHERE SHE WANTS HER Kit visits Costello in hospital and is intrigued to find out from his wife that he had planned to retire to the Lakes in September. Kit tells Lisa and Becky that it seems odd that Costello had never mentioned it. Lisa agrees whilst Kit clocks Becky’s discomfort. Kit tells Carla how he suspects Costello and Becky are in it together.
A despondent Carla pours herself a drink, pointing out they have no proof of anything. Kit tells Becky that Carla’s in the factory knocking back scotch and Lisa should go and check on her. Becky promises to pass on the message. As Carla pours herself another drink, Becky enters the office and closes the door behind her.
LAUREN SPIES A MOMENT BETWEEN WILL AND MEGAN Eva forces Will to apologise to Lauren for trying to kiss her. Lauren assures him it’s water under the bridge. But as he meets up with Megan in the precinct, telling her how sorry he is for the kiss, Lauren watches them from afar, with a sense of unease.
DEBBIE HAS DOUBLE TROUBLE An upset Debbie confides in Carl and Abi that she’s made a mistake and accidentally booked the wedding venue for 2027 instead of 2026. Knowing she may be too poorly by then, Carl and Abi promise to help find another venue. Debbie’s made up when they reveal they’ve booked Monkton Hall as they’d had a cancellation in 3 weeks time.
ELSEWHERE When Joanie reveals that she’s invited some friends round for a Christmas party, Sally and Tim go all out for her with a buffet. A loved up George and Christina discuss the situation with Todd. Christina tells George that it’s obvious he misses him and should try and patch things up.
