Coronation Street DNA twist as Alya finds new information about Stu

Coronation Street fans are in for a DNA shock next week, as Alya Nazir receives new information on Stu Carpenter's case.

Viewers were taken aback when they found out Stu had been in prison for the murder of a young waitress he had been having an affair with. Yasmeen was hit with the news from Stu's ex-wife Lucy after Stu had tried to make contact with his daughter, Bridget.

Stu has maintained his innocence, with Yasmeen's granddaughter Alya digging into his case to seek out the truth.

Next week, Stu is becoming close with his daughter Bridget again as she meets Yasmeen in the Rovers, the Mirror reports. Yasmeen thinks Bridget and her daughter Eliza want to continue seeing Stu, but Lucy is dead set against it.

Secretly, Yasmeen tells Alya and Stu that the pair are coming round the next day, but they'll keep it from Lucy. Bridget and Eliza enjoy a brunch with Yasmeen and Stu, but a question from Eliza about her granddad's time behind bars proves too much for Bridget, and she runs out into the garden.

Stu follows her to comfort her, letting her know how angry he was at being jailed for something he didn't do – but he's soon left reeling by Bridget's shocking revelation.

Meanwhile, Dee-Dee, pops into Speed Daal to tell Alya the DNA results are finally in, leaving her shell-shocked.
