Coronation Street fans work out what Lisa Swain’s hiding after ‘odd’ question
Coronation Street fans think they have worked out that Lisa Swain is hiding something from Carla Connor following the latter’s ‘odd’ question amid what appears to be a break-up for the pair.
Fans of the ITV soap have been championing the couple, dubbed ‘Swarla’, ever since they gave into their feelings for one another around a year ago.
But it’s fair to say its been a rollercoaster of a 12 months – and that’s putting it lightly – with Carla’s ill health, the return of her murderer brother – who held them at gunpoint inside No.1 – and now the return of Lisa’s late wife, Becky.
And it’s the latter that currently appears to be the final nail in the coffin for Lisa and Carla, after emotional scenes in the long-running show on Wednesday night (November 26).
As viewers know, Becky made a shock arrival in Weatherfield back in September, on her and Lisa’s daughter, Betsy’s, 18th birthday, which comes after the detective sergeant was led to believe her partner had been killed in the line of duty four years ago.
Becky, who claimed she was hiding out in Spain, having been put into witness protection following an undercover operation gone wrong, has since been getting in between Lisa and Carla, with a clear intention to get her family back together, whatever it takes.
During the mid-week visit to the cobbles, Carla had been planning a romantic meal and hotel stay for herself and Lisa so that they could spend some much-needed alone time together now that Becky is staying under their roof. But having heard about their plans, a devious Becky decided to come between them – again.

After stealing a bottle of Carla’s red wine, Lisa found an intoxicated Becky lying out on the doorstep of No.6, with no choice but to get her inside and make sure she sobered up. At the hotel, Carla realised that Lisa wasn’t coming, and when she arrived home, she put on Lisa’s bathrobe.
Despite Lisa trying to offer an explanation, it seemingly sealed the couple’s fate. Lisa begged Carla not to make her choose between their relationship and Betsy’s relationship with Becky, but the Underworld factory boss felt like her partner’s decision had already been made and she left the house in emotional scenes.
Now, Corrie fans think that Lisa wasn’t actually taking Becky’s side, but more a matter of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer, after a question from Carla.
