Betsy (Sydney Martin) proves to be nothing like her mother DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) in Coronation Street next week as she stirs up trouble by threatening a teenager.
When we were first introduced to Betsy, she was seen hanging out with friend Sabrina (Luana Santos), who had been cornered by Joel Deering (Calum Lill).
Betsy immediately worked out Joel was bad news and, after finding him in Weatherfield, told him that she’d keep quiet if he gave her money in return.
Elsewhere, Betsy’s troublesome behaviour has seen her blackmail Carla Connor (Alison King), who put a young boy in hospital after hitting him with her car door. Betsy told Carla that she’ll keep quiet and stop her going to prison if she gave her a summer job in return – and it worked.
Coming up, Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton) deals with the aftermath of her early labour as her little boy lies in an incubator.
She’s interrupted, unfortunately, due to the arrival of Swain, who is intent on asking Lauren some questions.
Meanwhile, Betsy reminds Joel how he threw her out of his car in the middle of a rough estate and he owes her, which leaves him seething.
When Betsy heads back to Weatherfield, new mate Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan) updates her on his new job at Speed Daal. He tells Betsy that he’s prepared for trouble and later, she stirs the pot by telling Dylan Wilson (Liam McCheyne) he’d better not mess with Mason as working in a restaurant will mean he has access to sharp knives.
In the week, Betsy admits to Mason that she told Dylan he carries a knife. Annoyed, Mason asserts he can fight his own battles.
When Dylan later finds Mason at the precinct, he fears trouble is brewing. What will happen next?
And will Betsy regret getting involved with Mason?
