Drug lord Harvey terrorises Simon and Leanne

Drug lord Harvey will arrive on the scene and tangle Leanne Battersby’s son, Simon, in his terrifying drug ring.

Leanne will find herself trapped in Harvey’s world of drugs and despair as she fails to free Simon from the drug lord’s clutches.

The harrowing storyline will come shortly after the passing of Leanne’s youngest son Oliver, who passed away from an incurable form of mitochondrial disease .

Cobbles boss Iain MacLeod has teased the upcoming storyline, revealing that what “starts quite small” turns into a “colossal, thriller-ish, high-octane piece, which “forces Leanne to put her war paint on and go out in defence of her remaining son.”

When things don’t go quite as Harvey planned, the drugs lord enlists the help of a family face who has a history of causing trouble for the residents of the cobbles.

Who will it be?

Tyrone embarks on an affair with Alina

Fans have been convinced there’s an affair on the cards for Tyrone and Alina ever since he kicked her out of the flat after she burst in on him wearing nothing but a towel .

And it seems fans were right as Tyrone will gravitate towards Alina in the coming weeks as he suffers a midlife crisis.

Meanwhile, an oblivious Fiz will try and reignite the passion in their relationship.

In 2018, Tyrone sent shockwaves through Weatherfield when he had a shock romp with Gemma Winter behind Fiz’s back, but the pair managed to overcome Tyrone’s infidelity.

Could another affair be the end of Tyrone and Fiz?

Ronnie Bailey’s secret is revealed

Aggie has been wary of her brother in law Ronnie ever since he burst onto the cobbles, and admitted that she didn’t like the way he always manages to lead Ed astray.

But Corrie bosses have confirmed there’ll be more to Aggie’s dislike of Ronnie than meets the eye , as the newcomer’s huge secret comes exploding out in the coming weeks.

What will it be and could it threaten to destroy Aggie’s family?

Hinting at what’s to come for Ronnie, Corrie boss Iain MacLeod recently teased: “In comes Ronnie with a hand grenade with the pin already out and we are all wondering when he is going to drop it and as you can predict on a show like ours he will drop it when it will do maximum damage.

“It’s an exciting time in the Bailey household.”

Carla and Peter race against the clock

Carla and Peter will be forced to race against time to tie the knot in the coming weeks as Peter’s health worsens.

The alcoholic was recently told his liver is failing after years of battling his addiction.

But Peter refused any treatment and announced he wanted to die on his own terms.

Coronation Street has unveiled teasers for its spring storylines this year, including the arrival of drug lord Harvey, played by Will Mellor.

Harvey will drag Leanne Battersby into his drugs ring as she attempts to free her son Simon from his clutches and repay him, in harrowing scenes as the grieving mum is taken advantage of.

Soap boss Iain MacLeod said the storyline “starts quite small” but turns into a |colossal, thriller-ish, high-octane piece, which “forces Leanne to put her war paint on and go out in defence of her remaining son.”

Tyrone Dobbs is also set to have a steamy affair with Alina Pop, who moved in with him and girlfriend Fiz Stape, before he realised he had feelings for her.

The younger and beautiful Alina burst in on Tyrone wearing just a towel, and Tyrone appears to be suffering from a midlife crisis as he is consumed with thoughts of Alina when a health scare forces him to spend more time at home, with her.

But Fiz is totally unaware and will try to rekindle the flame in their relationship – will she find out the truth, and how will she react?

Spoilers tell fans to expect “catastrophic consequences” of the illicit storyline.

Newcomer Ronnie Bailey has a big secret that is set to be revealed in shocking upcoming scenes, after sister-in-law Aggie is less than impressed he is back.

Ed’s brother has been impressing him and his son Michael, but Aggie has been far from welcoming – but for a “more personal reason” that will become clear in months to come.

What is Ronnie’s big secret, and will it tear the family apart?

Corrie spoilers reveal Ronnie is hiding “the daddy of all secrets” – could this be a teaser for a paternity revelation?

Elsewhere, Carla Connoe and Peter Barlow commit to getting married, but it’s a race against the clock as Peter’s health is rapidly declining.

Will they make it down the aisle to become husband and wife at last?

Coronation Street airs Mondays and Wednesdays 7.30pm and 8.30pm with an hour-long episode at 7.30pm on Fridays on ITV

Alejandro G. Iñárritu is underway on his first feature in the director’s chair since he won three Oscars for The Revenant.

The Los Angeles Times reported that the new project has rolled cameras in Iñárritu’s hometown of Mexico City and that it is going under the title Limbo .

The Spanish-language movie is being led by Daniel Giménez Cacho, the Mexican actor who starred in Lucrecia Martel’s Zama . Story details are unknown as of yet but it is understood to be a form of fable exploring the political and social modernity of Mexico.

Crew include the Oscar-winning production designer Eugenio Caballero ( Pan’s Labyrinth ) and DoP Darius Khondji ( Seven ).

First images from the set show Cacho walking among a collection of extras who are lying on the ground. The pic is understood to be filming for a further five months around Mexico, including at Churubusco Studios, and it could release as soon as this year.

Deadline has contacted Iñárritu’s reps for comment.

A Black Lives Matter (BLM) supporter who hurled sections of metal fence at fleeing police officers in London has been allowed to walk out of court with a suspended sentence.

Shayden Spencer, 20, admitted violent disorder in the British capital and showed up for his sentencing late, but still escaped with a suspended sentence, small fine, and requirement to perform some upaid work and attend a 15-day rehabilitation course after the judge and even the prosecutor appeared to join the defence in attempting to offer mitigation for him in court.

“The defendant is seen clearly to walk towards the waist-height barrier and throw a piece of barrier that had been broken up. He then returns 55 seconds later and does exactly the same thing,” said Tyrone Silcott for the prosecution, describing footage of his attack — but then went on to say Spencer had “expressed his regret [for] what he described as being in the heat of the moment. He said his actions did not ‘reflect the person I am’.”

“He stated he went to the Black Lives Matters protest as part to raise a voice for racial rights in a peaceful manner. He said he never thought the protest would become violent,” the prosecutor went on, according to a MailOnline court report , adding that “It was the first protest he had ever attended” and that he “expressed serious regrets for his actions”.

Judge Gregory Perrins, too, appeared more than willing to offer excuses for the convict, conceding that Spencer had committed “an extremely serious offence of public disorder” but adding that he had been “swept away with events as they unfolded” and “shown true regret”.

The judge went on to praise Spencer — a teaching assistant — as being “plainly someone who has the potential for a bright future”.

Nelson Statue Vandal Walks Free After Judge Lets Him Off With Conditional Discharge https://t.co/kDBnS77t1X

This light-touch approach to justice when it comes to Black Lives Matter supporters is nothing new in Britain, with the authorities having previously let off a demonstrator who clambered on the Cenotaph war memorial and tried to set fire to one of the British flags adorning it with a conditional discharge and small fine, let off someone who v andalised a statue of Admiral Nelson with a similar non-punishment, and let off someone arrested in connection with the destruction of a statue in Bristol with a caution in exchange for attending a meeting “to discuss the future of all statues in the city” — arguably more of a reward than a punishment.

This contrasts sharply with the authorities’ treatment of a pro-statues counter-protester who was pictured urinating beside a small memorial to a fallen police officer, apparently without realising it was there, last year.

This statue defender was arrested, charged, convicted, and imprisoned within a matter of days despite handing himself in at the earliest opportunity.

EMMERDALE fans were left in tears after Amy Metcalfe begged Cain Dingle not to abandon baby Frankie in a desperate plea.

Cain turned his back on Nate last month after the pair disagreed over the return of Faith Dingle.

And in tonight’s episode, Cain ignored Nate and Tracy as they sat in the pub with baby Faith.

Tracy later approached Cain at the garage and said: “Aren’t you a little old for the silent routine?”

She went on: “I saw you looking at her in the pub, or am I wrong?

When Cain didn’t say a word, Tracy cried: “All this because you can’t forgive your own mother for doing something that affected him way more than it ever did you.”

Cain told her: “That’s nothing to do with you.”

But Tracy passionately replied: “Yes it is. I’m family now.”

Pointing to the baby, she added: “She is your family now. You’re so angry at Faith for taking Nate away from you that you can’t see that that’s exactly what you’re doing now.

“Are you really too stubborn to say sorry, or to at least try and understand why a man who has felt abandoned his entire life might not want to turn his back on his own grandmother? He misses you.”

Still getting no reply from Cain, Tracy said with tears in her eyes: “I would do anything to have my dad back here. To have a chance for him to meet Frankie. You’re the only granddad she’s ever going to know. Doesn’t that mean anything to you?”

Tracy’s emotional speech clearly struck a chord as later, Cain turned up on Nate’s doorstep and asked if he could come in.

One viewer tweeted: “How can cain not be interested in the first baby ever born?”

Another wrote: “Well said Tracy.”

A third added: “Ooooo did Tracy just touch a nerve in grumpy Cain?”
