So, this is where Carla's been

Today’s Coronation Street ITVX episode scenes (Wednesday, December 24) saw Carla Connor return to our screens as her dark fate was revealed.

As we’d all suspected, Carla had never made it to her hotel in Lanzarote and had instead been tied up elsewhere. Literally. We’re not kidding.

Poor Carla had been bound and gagged by Becky Swain. It’s not the first time this has happened to her either, bless her.

Today on the cobbles, Becky Swain continued to dig her claws into Lisa.

Preparing for Christmas, Becky noticed that Lisa was tense and gave her a massage. Lisa was reluctant but when Becky said she’d ‘take care of her’ in more ways than one, she didn’t shove her off.

Instead, she allowed her to kiss and kiss away before they ended up sleeping together.

However, Lisa clearly wasn’t head over heels after this and sent Carla a voice message telling her that she’s the only one she wants, and that it will always only be her.

She then sat, waiting for Carla to reply back to her message. But, her phone had fallen into the wrong hands.

Carla’s fate revealed in Coronation Street ITVX episode

Lisa believes that Carla is sunning herself up abroad for Christmas, ‘living her best life.’

However, Carla’s true fate was revealed tonight. Becky Swain was seen texting Lisa back on Carla’s phone, pretending to be her.

She told Lisa that they both needed to move on, but this was just another step in her huge plot to win back her wife and move back to Spain with her family.

The end of the episode then saw Carla bound and tied up, with Becky telling her to ‘get back in the closet’ before shutting the closet door on her.

Yes, Becky Swain had held poor Carla hostage and it’s now unclear what she plans on doing with her next…

We know that Carla is set to appear in January’s Corriedale episode as she is involved in the car-pile up stunt scenes, but how does this come to be? Does Becky let her go before she attempts to flee the country with Lisa and Betsy? Or, does Carla manage to free herself?
