Peter fears for Carla's mental health in Corrie as she takes on killer Stephen

Carla (Alison King) and Peter (Chris Gascoyne) have been through a lot together over the past few years, but hey, what can you expect when you live on Coronation Street?

One of their biggest challenges was Carla’s battle with psychosis in 2019, which took a toll on the whole family.

Despite having now made a full recovery, Peter will soon be worried for her mental health once more, as she begins a feud with murderous Stephen (Todd Boyce) that, according to show producer Iain MacLeod, will turn into ‘psychological warfare’.

‘Principally their story will centre on her war with Stephen, Peter’s role in that is being deeply concerned about his wife’s history of mental health problems.’ Iain explained.

‘He’ll put her offside but trying to be overprotective and fight her battles, intervene in an unhelpful way to suggest her priorities are all wrong.’

‘We want to play them as a couple that bicker and fall out, like over Peter’s conspiracy mindedeness. Dramatizing tensions that exist in a normal couple that have different political views. They are bubbling along nicely but in readiness for when Carla is thrust into Stephen’s crosshairs and the danger that comes with that.’

So, don’t worry Carter stans, there is still plenty to come for the couple.
