Coronation Street's Daniel and Bethany to struggle over 'attraction' after Sinead's death

Daniel Osbourne and Bethany Platt horrified Coronation Street viewers last week by kissing one another - just days before Sinead Tinker's death.

Unfortunately, this really doesn't seem to be a one-off and Sinead's aunt Beth's suspicions about the pair may prove correct.

Bethany has been vilified by the cobbles residents after snogging a grieving Daniel, but she is convinced she is in love with him.

Opening up about the future for the pair, actor Rob Mallard (Daniel) has revealed that Daniel will need to "untangle all his emotions" to find where the truth lies with his guilt and attraction.

He said: "Him and Bethany share a guilt and there's a Sinead attachment to that, there'll be something that he wants but he doesn't know what it is that he wants from her.

"I'm not sure whether he needs to forgive her or whether he wants Bethany to forgive him as well."

Rob added: "There's something there."

Meanwhile Corrie's executive producer Iain MacLeod confirmed that their storyline would run into next year.

"It's got legs and it's emotionally complex," he said. "Bethany certainly thinks she's in love with him... is she in love with Fantasy Daniel or is she in love with the real man? Does she even really know the real man?

"For Daniel's part, the story going forward is about loneliness and isolation and it's about the Barlow family not knowing to which degree they should wade in and take over and look after Bertie for him or to what degree they should back off."

*Coronation Street airs tonight at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV
