Coronation Street’s Dylan Wilson (Liam McCheyne) and Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin) finally give into their feelings for one another this week – but their romantic realisation could not come at a worse time.
The teens have long shared a close bond but the recent death of Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan) has strengthened the grieving pair’s friendship.
But things take a romantic turn in forthcoming scenes – just as Dylan is awaiting his fate, having been charged with possessing the knife that Matty and Logan Radcliffe (Seamus McGoff and Harry Lowbridge) used to kill their brother.
As he prepares for his big day in court, Dylan is certain he will be going down.

When Betsy hears this, she she urges him to stay positive and tries to offer him some comfort.
After assuring her friend that she will visit him inside, the pair then share a tender moment.
Dylan is stunned when Betsy leans in for a kiss, and he soon kisses her back.


While temporarily buoyed by the development, reality later hits for Dylan when things don’t go as his brief Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) had hoped in court.

The judge then confirms Dylan will serve a sentence in the secure training centre – but how long will he get? And what will this mean for his fledgling romance with Betsy?
Speaking about the knife-crime storyline, actor Liam McCheyne, who plays Dylan, recently said: ‘It’s an absolute privilege to be able to do this storyline and of course it’s great as an actor to have one as important as this.
‘The power of soaps at the minute is that we target social issues and different audiences within one episode. This storyline I’m currently involved in is predominantly aimed towards younger people, and if we can get even just one person to stop carrying a knife, then the storyline has done its job.’
