BIG changes are coming to Craig Tinker as he makes the decision he’s ready for a lifelong commitment with Faye Windass.
The Coronation Street copper receives life-changing careers news next week but is everything really as it seems?
Craig Tinker is ready for big changes in his life
He recently got engaged to Faye Windass
But something is going on behind his back
Craig (portrayed by Colson Smith) has been involved in the police for several years and his career has remained steady.
But in scenes airing next week on ITV, the constable arrives in the Rovers and breaks the news to his fiancée Faye (Ellie Leach) that he’s been given a secondment with the Criminal Investigation Department.
This means that Craig has been transferred to a new position and Faye is over the moon for him.
In later scenes, she talks to fellow Underworld employees Beth Tinker (Lisa George), Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor) and Izzy Armstrong (Cherylee Houston) and tells them she’s planning to throw a surprise party for Craig to celebrate.
With the help of her father Tim Metcalfe, Faye soon goes through the details of Craig’s party with Bistro co-owner Leanne Battersby.
Unfortunately, Faye isn’t as happy as it may seem.
Scenes preceding her finding out about Craig’s promotion will show her faced with her daughter Miley as the young girl admits how much she’s going to miss her ahead of her move to Slough.
Miley soon puts pressure on Faye to move with her and Jackson, unaware her father already asked her in previous scenes of the Manchester-based drama.
But could Faye think it over?
This remains to be seen but Faye’s brother Gary Windass (Mikey North) senses something is going on between her and Jackson when Miley asks them to help her with her family tree.
Jackson praises Faye and she’s clearly not indifferent to him.
Later on, Gary questions Faye about her feelings for Jackson but she insists she only has eyes for Craig.
Gary lures both Faye and Jackson to the furniture shop to talk things out but will it go according to plan?
Coronation Street airs every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV.
