ITV Coronation Street ‘confirms’ who really finds Cassie out – and it’s not Tracy
Coronation Street showed some new scenes tonight between Cassie Plummer and Ken Barlow, with it now seeming obvious who will rumble what she's done after a new clue on the ITV soap
Coronation Street has seemingly confirmed who really finds Cassie Plummer out tonight after a new twist.
Viewers will know that Cassie Plummer – played by Claire Sweeney – has been drugging Ken Barlow by slipping medication into his drinks. She has taken on a caring role with the Barlow matriarch, with family and friends suspicious.
Tonight, it was revealed that Cassie was found out buying things with Ken’s card. However, in order to get the heat off what she’s been doing, Cassie tells them it’s a present for Tracy Barlow.
Suspicions have continued to grow around Cassie, with Tracy being the one that’s most concerned about her true intentions – but could the scenes tonight lead to Ken actually rumbling what Cassie is really doing?
Viewers know that little Bertie spotted Cassie putting something in Ken’s drink, but kept it a secret after Cassie told him not to tell anyone. Can one of the Barlows step in before its too late?

Claire Sweeney previously revealed to us that Cassie is in “survival mode”.
She said: “She’s just gone into survival mode. She hates herself for it. She absolutely adores him and nobody’s ever shown her kindness like he has. Tracy has been onto her from the beginning. Tracy will go to any lengths to destroy Cassie. In a way, Cassie’s nicked her husband, although she’s with Tommy, she’s nicked her father’s affections, and taken her place in that house. We know Tracy is capable of some terrible things and she’s also met her match with Cassie. Cassie’s not a wallflower.”
Things will only get worse for the Barlows, when Ken asks Cassie to move into the house full time. Could he be at more risk having Cassie around all the time? Someone else starts to get suspicious of Cassie when she makes the announcement, with mum Evelyn unsure of her own daughter’s motives when Cassie tells her she’s moving in to care for Ken.
However, those suspicions are unlikely to go anywhere as actress Maureen Lipman, who plays Evelyn, recently revealed she would be taking a break from the show to coincide with her character’s studying.
“I’ll be absent for a while, and then coming back. I’m not going to die but then I’ll be in and out of it because I want to have a bit of a life. David and I are thinking of having a bit of a gap year,” she said previously.
