Coronation Street Reveals Dramatic Christmas 2025 Storylines in 32 Explosive Spoiler Pictures

Coronation Street Christmas spoilers follow.

Weatherfield is preparing for a Christmas unlike any other, as Coronation Street lines up a festive week packed with manipulation, betrayal, romantic temptation and a shocking act of violence that will leave the cobbles reeling well beyond Boxing Day.

From scheming minds at the Rovers to dangerous power plays behind closed doors, Christmas 2025 promises high drama, raw emotion and consequences that will echo into the New Year.

At the heart of the chaos is manipulative Maggie Driscoll, whose carefully constructed Christmas Day plan threatens to blow apart relationships and leave at least one resident fighting for their life. But Maggie isn’t the only character pushing boundaries

Elsewhere, Becky Swain escalates her obsessive attempts to reclaim Lisa, while troubling news surrounding Carla Connor sends shockwaves through the Street. Meanwhile, secrets, jealousy and control issues come to a head in several households,

proving that peace and goodwill are in short supply this festive season.

A Call That Changes Everything

The drama begins on Monday 22 December when Carl Webster receives a phone call that visibly knocks the wind out of him. His reaction alone suggests devastating news, and his distress quickly ripples outward. Bernie Winter, meanwhile, fields a call from Debbie, who reveals she’s stranded in Leeds and unable to attend her own hen party. While the hens try to salvage the celebration, the mood darkens when Abi rushes off after receiving urgent news connected to Carl. Something is unfolding that will cast a long shadow over the week.

Elsewhere, Eva Price is already struggling emotionally. A quiet moment in the Rovers’ backyard sees Adam Barlow find her in tears after Susie innocently mentions wanting a baby brother or sister. Eva’s vulnerability leads to a heartfelt conversation, but their closeness does not go unnoticed. Watching from a distance, Maggie Driscoll clocks every detail — and begins drawing her own dangerous conclusions.

Becky Crosses Another Line

Over at the hospital, Costello shows signs of improvement and is prepared for transfer to a rehabilitation clinic. But his relief quickly turns to horror when Becky Swain intervenes. Flashing her police badge, Becky manipulates hospital staff and insists she will take charge of the transfer herself. Costello is visibly shaken — and rightly so. Becky’s actions suggest control rather than care, and it becomes increasingly clear that she has her own agenda.

By Christmas Eve, Becky’s focus sharpens on Lisa Swain. With Carla supposedly sunning herself in Lanzarote, Becky encourages Lisa to relax and enjoy the festive period. When Lisa complains of neck tension, Becky offers a massage that quickly crosses into intimacy. A kiss planted on the back of Lisa’s neck leaves everything hanging in the balance, blurring boundaries and exposing Becky’s obsession.

Maggie’s Snooping Sparks Chaos

Meanwhile, Adam encourages Eva to process her feelings by writing them down. It’s a private, therapeutic exercise — until fate intervenes. When Alya enters unexpectedly, Adam asks Eva to hide a jewellery box meant as a Christmas present. Maggie, ever watchful, soon rifles through Eva’s handbag and discovers the letter. What she reads becomes ammunition, and Maggie wastes no time planning how to use it.

Elsewhere, Sally Metcalfe orchestrates a touching moment as Lou’s children hold up a banner outside the prison on Christmas Eve, hoping their mum will see it via security cameras. The gamble pays off when Lou calls, offering a rare moment of warmth amid the surrounding darkness.

Christmas Day at the Rovers: A Trap Is Set

Christmas Day brings the storm to full force. The Rovers plays host to an expanded guest list, courtesy of Maggie Driscoll, who deliberately invites Adam and Alya to ensure maximum discomfort. With Eva firmly in her sights, Maggie is determined to ruin her day — and possibly her future.

As Daniel, Megan, and other Driscoll family members gather, tensions simmer beneath forced smiles. Will Driscoll’s jealousy intensifies, and Maggie’s control of the room becomes chillingly apparent. Her plan unfolds through the seemingly innocent game of Secret Santa, but when Ben unwraps his gift, the atmosphere shifts instantly. Shock ripples through the room, and it becomes clear that Maggie has orchestrated something deeply cruel.

The fallout is immediate. Relationships are strained, trust is questioned, and Eva is left reeling, unaware of how meticulously Maggie engineered the moment. As voices rise and accusations fly, the festive façade collapses, exposing fractures that may never fully heal.

A Perfect Christmas — Built on Lies

At the Swain household, Christmas morning initially appears picture-perfect. Becky is euphoric, basking in the family life she has always craved. Betsy happily unwraps her presents, while Becky clings to the illusion that everything is finally falling into place.

But the cracks soon show. Becky once again kisses the back of Lisa’s neck, forcing Lisa to plaster on a smile — until Roy delivers a bombshell. Carla never checked into her Lanzarote hotel. The question hangs heavy in the air: where is Carla Connor, and why has she vanished?

Violence Strikes Weatherfield

The consequences of Christmas Day erupt violently on Friday 26 December when Evelyn Plummer stumbles across a horrifying scene in the ginnel. Someone lies unconscious, the victim of a brutal attack. As the Street reels in shock, it’s revealed that the injured person attended the Driscolls’ Christmas dinner — immediately casting suspicion on the explosive events of the previous day. Was this a crime of passion, revenge, or something even darker?

Todd’s Dangerous Dilemma

Elsewhere, Todd Grimshaw finds himself facing a quieter but no less disturbing dilemma. Theo Silverton surprises him with the promise of a mini-break — a gesture that initially seems generous. But Todd soon realises the trip clashes with an event Summer booked for him as a heartfelt gift. The timing feels calculated, and suspicion creeps in. Has Theo deliberately engineered the situation as another act of control?

As Todd weighs his options, viewers are left questioning just how far Theo will go — and whether Todd is finally ready to confront the truth.

A Christmas to Remember — For All the Wrong Reasons

With manipulation exposed, violence erupting and secrets unraveling, Coronation Street’s Christmas 2025 episodes promise a festive season drenched in drama. As alliances shatter and danger lurks in unexpected corners, Weatherfield proves once again that Christmas on the cobbles is never just about goodwill — it’s about survival.
