Coronation Street actor Liam McCheyne has revealed that Dylan Wilson and Betsy Swain will soon be in the limelight, starring in an important plot on the ITV soap.<\/p>\n

We’ve seen slightly less of Dylan in recent months, as he’s kept himself out of trouble since his darker storylines exploring knife crime<\/a> and car-stealing<\/a>. As the focus now shifts to Dylan’s relationship with Betsy, what will the show’s writers have in store? <\/p>\n

“It’s going to be quite a big 2026,” Liam told Inside Soap<\/a>. “I’ve got a nice storyline to get my teeth stuck into, which is great.<\/p>\n

“It’ll be quite a lot of work with Sydney [Martin, who plays Betsy]. It’s very coming of age. It’s a subject storyline, which is obviously Corrie’s speciality \u2013 it’s one thing the show is amazing at. So I’m very excited for that.” <\/p>\n

Fans know that Betsy has already had a dramatic start to the year, as she was involved in the Corriedale crash in January<\/a> thanks to the sly antics of her mum Becky.<\/p>\n

We’ve also recently seen a flashforward scene showing Betsy being interviewed by police after finding a body<\/a> on Lisa and Carla’s wedding day.<\/p>\n

Asked whether he’d like to see Dylan and Betsy build on their relationship, Liam replied: “Yes, it would be nice. Because of the off-screen friendship I have with Sydney, it’d be really nice to get into it a little bit more. And Dylan’s trying hard here, let’s be honest! He\u2019s a trier, bless him.” <\/p>\n

Quizzed on whether he thinks they’re compatible, Liam confirmed: “I do. Dylan is a nice kid at the end of it. He’s had a troubled upbringing, but he’s always kept to his roots.<\/p>\n

“He has a good heart, he knows what’s right and wrong. He’s done the wrong thing, he’s learnt from that. I think he’d be good for Betsy, but I also think she’d be good for him. It’s quite a nice balance in how they’re different.”<\/p>\n
