Corrie's George left horrified as he comes face-to-face with someone from his past

Coronation Street's George Shuttleworth faces upset next week on the ITV soap, according to new spoilers.

The character is forced to face his past, as he unexpectedly comes face-to-face with someone he knew years ago.

It seems to be someone from his school days, and it's clear he's not happy to see him.

Next week, George is introduced to Sean's new love interest Frank - but it's revealed the pair already know each other.

Eileen and George meet with Sean and Frank in the pub, but George is soon flustered and it becomes clear to Sean that they share a history.

Spoilers do not reveal what Frank did to George, but it seems to be from when they were teenagers - and it appears they haven't seen each other since.

So when George faces him in the pub he's panicked, and the truth soon comes out.

As Frank's actions come to light, Eileen asks him to find George and apologise to him for whatever it is he did all those years ago.

Frank apologises to George for any upset he caused in the past, and decides to make amends by asking him and Eileen to join him and Sean for dinner to bury the hatchet.

But is all forgiven and can George get past everything, or is Sean set for heartache?

George recently sparked suspicion he was up to something, after his odd behaviour and refusal to stay at partner Eileen's house overnight.

So when he confirmed it was because he was a loud snorer, Eileen and viewers were a little confused.

Later on, Eileen thought him staying over had gone better than expected, but he soon admitted he'd been staying awake all night as not to snore and keep her awake.

George soon revealed all on his secret health diagnosis too, and told Eileen that he suffers from sleep apnea, as he showed her the mask provided by his doctor.

According to the NHS website, "Sleep apnoea is when your breathing stops and starts while you sleep. The most common type is called obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)."

Meanwhile, viewers were hoping for a much bigger or darker secret for the character when the snoring twist was revealed, and they shared their disappointment.

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV and ITV Hub.
