Coronation Street confirms turbulent scenes for Lisa in unexpected therapy shock
Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) has been struggling recently in Coronation Street. The police officer was deeply affected by the tragic death of colleague and friend Craig Tinker (Colson Smith), and it was clear that his death brought up some difficult emotions from her past.
Lisa's wife Becky, who was also a police officer, was killed in the line of duty as Craig was. She had been chasing a suspect who jumped into a getaway car and mowed Becky down. She died at the scene.
Following Craig's death, we learned more about what happened to Becky, as Lisa opened up to her new partner, Carla Connor (Alison King). She explained that, before her death, Becky was being investigated by the anti-corruption unit.
The stress of being under investigation had taken its toll on their relationship and they'd argued on the day Becky was killed, meaning that Lisa has to live with the knowledge that she and her wife were on bad terms on that day and she'll never have a chance to make things right.
Although the investigation was dropped, Becky didn't get the funeral that she deserved as the cloud of the investigation was still hanging over her.
The whole issue obviously affects Lisa and Becky's daughter Betsy (Sydney Martin) as well.
After going through some of Lisa's papers, Betsy became determined to find out the truth about what happened to her mum and even visited Logan Radcliffe (Harry Lowbridge) in prison. It's known that Logan and his brother Matty (Seamus McGoff) were involved in Becky's death.
Betsy didn't get the answers she was hoping for as Logan wasted her time with a made-up story.

For Lisa, the emotional fallout of what happened to Becky is making it difficult for her to move on with her life, although she has found love again with Carla. More Trending
And it's Carla who, in upcoming episodes, tries to convince Lisa that she might find therapy helpful in dealing with what's happened.
Lisa isn't convinced, but agrees to give it a try. At her first therapy session, however, she's totally thrown when the therapist steers the conversation to Becky and it's clear Lisa's feeling very upset and defensive.

Danny Dyer makes daughter Dani gasp with saucy honeymoon confession
Just back from her honeymoon, Dani Dyer was left speechless when her dad shared a saucy confession about his honeymoon with her mum. Danny Dyer has left daughter Dani horrified with his X-rated honeymoon confession. The Eastenders star left daughter Dani Dyer mortified this week after sharing an X-rated confession about his honeymoon with wife Jo - just as Dani returned from her own! On the latest episode of their podcast Live And Let Dyers, the Celebrity Big Brother winner opened up about her romantic getaway with new husband and West Ham star Jarrod Bowen while proud dad Danny managed to overshare in true Dyer fashion. Back from her sun-soaked trip to Lake Como, Dani revealed the newlyweds were hit with gloomy weather but still made the most of their honeymoon bubble. 'The weather was terrible, it rained for three days,' she tells Danny on the pod. 'But we were very lucky, because it always stopped raining when we went for lunch and for dinners and stuff.' While the couple had hoped for some sunbathing time, Dani admitted they swapped tanning for telly, champagne and baths. 'We just could never sunbathe, and there's not really much to do there,' she added. 'So, we just binged the whole series of MobLand. We ate and I'd just drink champagne and have loads of baths!' Still, the loved-up newlyweds enjoyed the downtime before Bowen heads back to football duties. 'It was actually so nice because obviously I was in such wedding blues - it was so nice to go away for a few days and just have lay ins and spend time together,' Dani says. 'It was just so nice. We was just so happy the whole time.' But it wasn't long before Danny spun the convo onto his honeymoon and things got very a little too honest. 'To be fair, you shouldn't really be getting out of bed a lot in your honeymoon because me and your mother ended up in Florence, and you know, we was appalling!' Danny said Leaving his daughter stunned. 'I mean, honestly, I look back on it and I think, 'f****** hell! How on Earth did I manage to get in those sorts of positions!'' Clearly shocked but cracking up at her father's oversharing, Dani responded: 'Oh, you're disgusting!' Danny fired back: 'What do you mean disgusting? There was two people sharing their love. Them days are long gone now!'

EastEnders fans slam jarring BBC couple who were not a match
Zack Hudson and Whitney Dean were a prominent couple on the show who planned to get married before Whitney discovered her partner's unfaithfulness. Things famously came to a head at their wedding ceremony when Britney revealed Zack had cheated on Whitney. A furious Whitney then attacked Lauren and Zack before storming out of the registry office, according to Digital Spy. EastEnders fans slam 'jarring' former couple who 'weren't a match' on the BBC show Taking on the EastEnders official Reddit page, the original poster asked: "Did anyone actually like Zack and Whitney being together?" Fans of the BBC soap opera were quick to express their dislike of the relationship, with one user writing: "Always jarred a bit for me - the storylines about Peach, the fostering, Britney etc were good, but as a couple they felt a bit flung together. Which was probably the point IDK." Another agreed, penning: "Yeah, I felt the same. I wasn't keen on them as a couple (despite them both producing some good work together) and felt they weren't a match, either personality or chemistry-wise. "But this was by design and what they wanted to portray (given that Shona has known she was going for most - if not all - of that time)." One user said: "I did feel like their relationship came out of nowhere. I don't remember them interacting at all, and then she suddenly had a crush on him. "I didn't really like Zack until the Peach storyline, I think he supported her as best he could, and he seemed like he genuinely cared about her. "I think if Shona hadn't wanted to leave, they would have stayed together. They seemed like a solid couple before the Britney stuff, and I thought they were good together." Another fan added: "No, because I was annoyed that they didn't pair Zack and Sam together. All that build up and nothing, what a waste of time that was." Another echoed this dislike, writing: "Never. Zack was a playboy, and Whitney was a hypocrite with Lauren after she got with Joey while she was in rehab. Recommended Reading: "The dig at her being an addict just before her and Zack got together was uncalled for, too." However, one fan went against the grain, telling the OP: "Yes, I liked them together and was annoyed when he cheated with Lauren. "I'm hoping they don't put him and Lauren together. I don't know why, but I feel he could get with Zoe when she returns to the square"
