The streets of Weatherfield are once again filled with fear as Rob Donovan makes a terrifying return! After vanishing without a trace, the notorious villain has resurfaced,
and this time, he has a brand-new target in sight. The Connor family is in grave danger, and the tension in Coronation Street has never been higher.
Rob’s reappearance was set in motion when his estranged sister, Carla Connor, found herself in desperate need of another kidney transplant. In a shocking twist,
Bobby Crawford reached out to his father, Rob, asking him to be the donor. Seeing this as his perfect opportunity for freedom, Rob devised a cunning escape plan. With the help of his girlfriend, Mandy, a former prison guard, he plotted to use the transplant as leverage to walk free. However, his scheme fell apart when Lisa Swain, determined to ensure Carla’s survival, double-crossed him.
The betrayal sent Rob into a blind rage, pushing him to take drastic action. He kidnapped both Carla and Lisa, demanding a ransom in exchange for their lives. But as things spiraled out of control, a brutal showdown took place. Carla and Lisa managed to overpower Rob, leaving him for dead at the bottom of a staircase. But when the police arrived, his body was nowhere to be found.
Since that terrifying night, Carla has lived in constant fear, knowing that Rob could strike at any moment. Her worst nightmare came true when she returned home to find her flat ransacked—money and painkillers missing, evidence of a break-in all around her. Though reports suggested Rob had been spotted miles away in Brighton, Carla and Lisa had no doubt who was responsible.
Lisa, terrified for her daughter Betsy’s safety, insisted that she stay indoors until Rob was caught. But like any rebellious teenager, Betsy refused to believe she was in danger. Ignoring her mother’s warnings, she snuck out to attend a friend’s party, completely unaware that Rob was lurking in the shadows, watching her every move.
As Betsy stepped out into the darkened street, oblivious to the lurking threat, it became chillingly clear—Rob had been meticulously planning his next move. With his sights set on Betsy, his intentions remain unknown, but one thing is certain: Rob is far from finished with the Connor family.
Will Betsy become the next pawn in his sinister revenge plot? How far is Rob willing to go to get what he wants? And can Carla and Lisa stop him before it’s too late?
The drama is intensifying, and the stakes have never been higher. Rob is no longer just a fugitive—he’s a man on a mission, determined to destroy those who wronged him. With his cold and calculating mind, he has become one of the most dangerous villains to ever walk the cobbles.
