Coronation Street has confirmed that Debbie Webster will face a new enemy amid her prison storyline. Viewers know that Debbie will be locked up<\/a> after taking the fall for Billy Mayhew’s death last month, with her secret son Carl actually responsible.<\/p>\n

During her stint in prison after being sentenced tonight<\/a> (6 February), she is set to reunite with Lou Michaelis as her carer. However, Debbie is warned of a notorious other inmate called Paula, who has some history with Debbie, as she barred her from the hotel.<\/p>\n

“She makes a lovely friendship with Lou, but there\u2019s another inmate who is hard as nails and she gets into a few fights while she\u2019s in there,” star Sue Devaney told The Mirror<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Paula will be played by former Emmerdale star Kelli Hollis<\/a>, who confirmed her role herself<\/a> this week after recent reports emerged about her casting.<\/p>\n

Sharing a series of TikToks from her first day on set – presumably filmed a few months ago – Kelli said everyone had been “so nice” since she started work, while also crossing paths with some former colleagues who worked with her on Shameless.<\/p>\n

In a clip walking down the iconic set, Kelli told her followers: “Now I know how people felt when they used to come up to Emmerdale<\/a>. The bloody Rovers! I’m filming just around the corner\u2026 bit of Rovers, f**king hell!”<\/p>\n

Before that, tonight’s scenes will see Debbie suffer a TIA mini-stroke in her cell. In the coming weeks, she can also expect a visit from Carl, who had always believed that Debbie was his sister before learning the shocking truth recently<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Carl comes to see her and decides to turn the situation to his advantage,” Sue teased. “He pulls on Debbie\u2019s heartstrings and she says she\u2019ll do everything she can to make it up to him. She\u2019s his mother and she just wants his love, however that is.<\/p>\n

“She will still love him whatever he does and when she finds out he\u2019s not moving back to Germany and he\u2019s staying in Weatherfield, in her mind that\u2019s because he loves her and he doesn\u2019t want to leave her.”<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on weeknights at 8.30pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
