Coronation Street flashback special 'set to reveal' Maggie Driscoll’s dark side
How many skeletons does she have in her closet?
Maggie Driscoll hasn’t been on the cobbles long, but she’s already making waves. She’s clashed with Eva in the Rovers, supported Asha through a tough time, and even helped Will dodge trouble after his latest antics.
But Maggie may not be as innocent as she seems. Reports suggest her past is far darker than anyone realises. Whispers of a shocking murder secret are set to come to light in upcoming episodes.
Could the newest resident in Coronation Street be hiding something deadly?
Maggie Driscoll ‘the mother in law from hell’
Maggie Driscoll made waves when she crashed Eva’s party at the Rovers, and dropped a bombshell. Ben hadn’t bought the pub for Eva after all… he’d used Maggie’s money! That made Maggie the true landlady, leaving Eva stunned and betrayed.
The fallout was fierce. After a fiery showdown, Maggie let Eva run the pub and even allowed her name above the door, but made it crystal clear she was still the one calling the shots behind the scenes.
Still, Maggie showed she wasn’t all power plays and pub politics. She stepped up for Asha, offering emotional support and even phoning for an ambulance when things took a turn.
But the Driscolls didn’t just bring drama, they brought secrets. Reports of Maggie’s dark past have started to surface, and Weatherfield looks poised to uncover just how dangerous she really is.
Coronation Street to air dark flashback scenes for Maggie Driscoll
The Sun has reported that a special flashback episode is in store for Maggie. It will reveal that she’s hiding a huge secret. She’s killed someone. And, someone viewers know well.
The murder would’ve took place before Maggie came to the cobbles, with a source telling the publication: “When viewers see whose death Maggie was behind it will really send shockwaves through Weatherfield and life will never quite be the same again for her.
“The killing happened prior to her moving into the Rovers Return with her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren, and none of them will be aware of it.
“But it will all come out in a bombshell storyline leading up to the festive season.”
But, who could Maggie have killed? We won’t have long to wait until we find out!
