Coronation Street is set for dramatic scenes next week as one Weatherfield legend is arrested for Actual Bodily Harm (ABH).

Soap watchers will recall that only recently, Lou Michaelis has found herself isolated on the cobbles after her husband Mick Michaelis murdered young police officer Craig Tinker.

Maria Connor took particular umbridge with Lou, especially after Mick attacked her husband Gary Windass before killing Craig.

After sacking Lou from her hairdresser job and being left livid over Gary supporting the single mum, Maria was given food for thought as she gave Lou her job back and a second chance after a chat with Gary.

However, it looks like things backfire next week as Lou asks Gary for more support as she asks him to help her sell Mick’s van while in Speed Daal.

When Maria arrives, Lou quickly makes herself scarce and later when Lou calls at the salon and reveals that David asked her to cover his shift, how will Maria react?

Later in the week, Lou continues to wind up Maria in the salon who orders her to hold the fort while she attends Craig’s memorial.

When Gary tells Lou that Craig was well loved in the community and she should show people that she’s sorry for what happened to him, Lou decides to go to the memorial, but will she receive a warm welcome?

Later in the week, Maria chats to Shona Platt about the Platt family’s barbeque plans, aware that Lou is listening. As Maria passes Lou, she warns her to keep her distance.

Over at the salon, Audrey Roberts cashes up, and gives the money to Shona for David to take to the bank. After noticing Shona left her phone, Lou seizes her opportunity to join in.

When Lou arrives, Shona invites her to stay. However, it’s not long until Lou spots the envelope of cash in Shona’s bag and whilst Nick raises a toast, Lou slips into the house.

Toying with stealing the cash, Lou is interrupted by Maria’s arrival and, assuming the worst, demands she empty her pockets. Did Lou steal the money from Shona’s bag?

Suddenly, there’s a loud crash from the living room and Lou is found on the floor with the broken coffee table and Maria standing over her. As Maria off loads to Sarah Platt, the police arrive and tell Maria they’re arresting her on suspicion of ABH.

Could this be an exit for Maria after 25 years on the cobbles, did she really do it and what is Lou playing at?
