Coronation Street spoilers follow for Tuesday’s (7 April) episode on ITVX, which hasn’t aired on ITV1 yet.
Coronation Street’s Sam Blakeman might have done the right thing by exposing Megan Walsh’s horrific grooming, but his honesty has come at a personal cost. After finally putting an end to Megan’s scare tactics, the teenager is now being intimidated by Will Driscoll. How will he cope with the pressure?
In Sunday’s episode, Eva Price asked her stepson Will to apologise to Sam for his part in Megan’s bullying. With Sam in counselling following the ordeal, it was clear that he was still struggling with his mental health.

Will tracked Sam down at the Bistro and said sorry in front of a relieved Leanne and Toyah Battersby. However, he later called Sam to retract his apology, telling him to watch his back.
Tonight’s episode sees Sam confronting Will over his malicious warning, insisting he isn’t scared of him. But with Liam Connor present, Will pretends he doesn’t know what Sam is talking about.
Back at home, Will tells Eva that Sam was accusing him of intimidation and an unimpressed Maggie urges her to have a word with her sisters. Eva heads over to the Bistro to defend her stepson.
“Will said Sam’s accusing him of making nasty phone calls. Threatening him. Why would he say that?” enquires Eva, before Leanne insists that Sam never lies.

Later, as Sam heads out of the chippy he believes he sees an angry Will waiting for him around the corner. He tries to run away but trips and falls onto the ground, with Nick fortunately nearby to help.
Sam tells his dad that he just “tripped”, but worriedly looks around the empty street, paranoid that Will is still lurking. How far will Will go to enact his revenge?
