\t\t\"Sinister
\n\t\tJodie Ramsay has new targets in her sights as she makes an offer to Carla Connor (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

Carla Connor<\/a> (Alison King<\/a>) is taken aback in Coronation Street<\/a> next week when new neighbour Jodie Ramsey<\/a> (Olivia Frances-Brown<\/a>) offers to look after baby Connie. <\/p>\n

Little Connie arrived on<\/a> Carla and Lisa Swain<\/a>\u2019s (Vicky Myers<\/a>) doorstep last week, much to the shock of the fan-favourite couple who had no idea who the six-month-old tot belonged to. <\/p>\n

After some of that signature investigating she does so well, Lisa solved the mystery<\/a>, revealing that Connie is the daughter of Carla\u2019s brother Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis) and prison-guard Mandy Waring (Rebecca Atkinson).<\/p>\n

Carla was against looking after Rob\u2019s child at first, opening up about her own miscarriage<\/a> over a decade ago as she reiterated all the torment Rob had bestowed upon her and the eponymous Street\u2019s residents. <\/p>\n

But after some careful consideration and words of support from Lisa, she had a change of heart, resolving to look after her niece. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s safe to say that Lisa and Carla have been doing a wonderful job of raising the little one but danger is on the cards next week in the form of villainous Jodie, who makes the couple quite an offer. <\/p>\n

The newcomer offers her services to mind baby Connie in upcoming scenes, assuring Carla that she is fully qualified to do so. <\/p>\n

The question is: is this just another lie? And what will Carla\u2019s answer be? <\/p>\n

Jodie, as viewers know, has been causing chaos on the street since her arrival \u2013 and I\u2019m not just referring to the dog poo scandal that has left Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) seething.<\/p>\n

The expert schemer has lied and manipulated her way into sister Shona\u2019s (Julia Goulding) life, wanting drive a wedge between her and husband David Platt<\/a> (Jack P Shepherd). <\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not just her own clan that she\u2019s after as she\u2019s been secretly targeting a few of the cobbles\u2019 finest, with Brian Packham (Peter Gunn) having had his book nicked while Bernie Winter-Alahan (Jane Hazelgrove) was also the victim of her twisted actions as she broke into her house.<\/p>\n

Will Carla and Lisa be next in line to be tormented and traumatised by Jodie? And is baby Connie in danger?Or could Lisa perhaps use those detective skills of her\u2019s to suss what Jodie is really like before it\u2019s too late? <\/p>\n
