JUST a few months after Alya Nazir suddenly left Coronation Street mid-episode, she is set to make a big return.
The character had just started exploring a romantic relationship with her boss Adam before she left Weatherfield, and fans have been dying to know what could have happened between them.
Alya (Sair Khan) was waved off in May without much fanfare when she unexpectedly got selected for a six month work placement at a top notch law firm.
Now she is back in town, viewers will be intrigued to see how the budding lawyer has changed after her time in Dublin.
She is set to get off to a rocky start back in Weatherfield as she immediately becomes implicated in a disturbing case.
Poor Carla Connor has been attacked and is fighting for her life in a hospital bed.
DS Lisa suspects Matty is responsible, but when he is hauled in for questioning, Alya corroborates his alibi.
Although she believes in Matty’s innocence, Alya will only get more entangled in the situation as Lisa is spotted following Matty and Logan while looking for evidence.
She has a new job shadowing a criminal solicitor, and this means she ends up having to make a complaint at the police station about Lisa’s alleged harassment of her client.
Lisa claims that she bumped into Matty and Logan by accident, but her co-worker Kit starts to become suspicious.
Meanwhile, outside of the office, Alya’s former boss and flame Adam is happy to see her.
The pair share a romantic moment as he admits he has missed her and asks her out to dinner.
Is their love story finally back on the cards?
Or will Alya’s defence of a potential criminal just make her life in Weatherfield come crashing down?
