\n\t\tBecky Swain is gone for good\u2026 Or is she? (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n
Coronation Street<\/a> fans let out a sigh of relief as Becky Swain (Amy Cudden) was finally sent to prison for her crimes<\/a> earlier this week \u2013 but some Metro readers fear this isn\u2019t the last we\u2019ve seen of the twisted villain.<\/p>\n Becky first hit our screens as part of a major plot twist last summer, when she gave wife Lisa Swain<\/a> (Vicky Myers<\/a>) the shock of her life.<\/p>\n Lisa and daughter Betsy Swain<\/a> (Sydney Martin<\/a>) had been led to believe that Becky had been killed in a hit-and-run while on duty at the scene of a burglary nearly four years prior.<\/p>\n However, it transpired that she had actually been living in Spain under a different identity. She claimed that she had been part of an undercover operation into a dangerous gang, and had to fake her death<\/a> when it went wrong, but over time it became clear that nothing she said could be trusted.<\/p>\n Becky was far more corrupt, and far more dangerous, than anyone had expected.<\/p>\n Her return to Lisa\u2019s life came after she learnt of her engagement to Carla Connor<\/a> (Alison King<\/a>), and she wasted no time in trying to get her old life back.<\/p>\n \t\t She managed to manipulate her way back into Lisa and Betsy\u2019s life, driving a wedge between Lisa and Carla which eventually led to their break-up.<\/p>\n Away from her family life, she had a criminal past to bury, and to ensure her secrets stayed hidden, she arranged for DI Costello (Daon Broni) to be attacked<\/a>.<\/p>\n Little did she know, Carla and Kit Green<\/a> (Jacob Roberts<\/a>) were already getting closer to uncovering all of her lies.<\/p>\n When Becky caught Carla snooping around her flat for evidence, she kidnapped the factory boss and kept her locked in an airing cupboard for several weeks.<\/p>\n At the same time, she managed to convince Lisa and Betsy to run away with her to Spain, leaving Carla to die without access to her anti-rejection medication.<\/p>\n \t\t Thankfully, Kit managed to track Carla down, and the pair raced off after the Swains, with Carla making a call to Lisa to reveal the truth about Becky.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tDon’t miss a Soaps scoop!

Once it was clear that all three Swains were going to be okay, Lisa arrested Becky for all of her crimes<\/a>, including fraud and kidnapping.<\/p>\n However, Becky wasn\u2019t going to go down without a fight, and told Lisa when she visited her in prison that she planned to paint her as an accessory and drag her down with her.<\/p>\n When Betsy learnt about this plan, she too paid Becky a visit, and tore into her, telling her she wished she really had died.<\/p>\n \t\t This was obviously a sobering moment for Becky, who later pleaded guilty without so much as mentioning Lisa, and was sentenced to 12 years in prison.<\/p>\n While this came as a relief to most viewers, some Metro readers, like Irene, \u2018don\u2019t think this is the end of this storyline\u2019.<\/p>\n In fact, several Corrie fans have speculated that Becky may stage an escape from prison and come after Carla and Lisa for revenge.<\/p>\n \u2018See her in 2 years when she escapes to get revenge,\u2019 James commented on Facebook, while Kitt added: \u2018No doubt there will be a twist, let me guess she escapes from prison and comes back to the street\u2026 In a revenge plot after Carla and Lisa\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n While Roy \u2013 no, not that one \u2013 speculated that, \u2018She breaks out of prison and kills Carla\u2019, Robert had an entire story arc mapped out.<\/p>\n \t\t \u2018No doubt Becky will escape in no time at all. She\u2019ll come back to Coronation Street and take someone hostage. Then Betsy will kill her in an act of self-defence. Subsequently, Becky will emerge in another soap,\u2019 he theorised.<\/p>\n Though others are hopeful there will be no prison escapes in Becky\u2019s future, there are some who fear that she will set her sights on Lisa again as soon as she is released for good behaviour in six years.<\/p>\n \u2018Lisa said last night Becky out of our lives for good but if she got twelve years she will do half of that so she will be back for her,\u2019 Janet pointed out.<\/p>\n So, have we really seen the last of Becky? Or are Metro readers right to worry?<\/p>\n Arrow Arrow Arrow![\"Lisa,](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/26_11_coro_lisa_becky_carla_01-a2b9.jpg\")
