Coronation Street 'confirms' new romance for unexpected duo
Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton) has been in hospital ever since she took LSD at a party last week. The evening was hosted at the Alahan household, but it descended into disaster due to Lauren, Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) and Nina Lucas (Mollie Gallagher) all taking hallucinogenic drugs.
Lauren consumed the drug and stumbled into the ginnel. There, a man asked if she was okay, but in her delirious state, Lauren believed the man to be Joel Deering (Calum Lill) and completely panicked.
As her hallucinations got stronger, Lauren stumbled into the factory, where she believed that Joel had taken Frankie.
Aadi Alahan (Adam Hussain) found her, and has continued to support Lauren in the aftermath.
This was picked up on by Lauren's mate Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin) a couple of days ago. She said she had no idea Lauren was so close to Aadi, and it was clear that Lauren hadn't really thought about this, as it just felt quite natural. More Trending
In tonight's episode, Aadi remained consumed with guilt following the disastrous party. He attempted to tell Lauren the truth about the drugs, but he bottled it when she was nice to him, and said he shouldn't blame himself.

It's very clear that Lauren and Aadi are getting closer, but could they start seeing each other romantically?

Bob Vylan no longer playing Manchester festival after Glastonbury controversy
The group were due to headline the Saturday slot at Radar festival but no longer appear in the line-up. It comes as police launched an investigation after rapper Bobby Vylan led crowds in chants of 'death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)' during their livestreamed performance at the Somerset music festival last weekend. A statement posted on Radar festival's Instagram account said: 'Bob Vylan will not be appearing at Radar festival this weekend.' It has since updated its website, changing the Saturday slot to 'Headliner TBA' (to be announced). In response, the group shared the festival's statement on their Instagram story, adding the caption: 'Silence is not an option. We will be fine, the people of Palestine are hurting. Manchester we will be back.' The rap group had issued a statement on Tuesday claiming they were being 'targeted for speaking up' after Avon and Somerset police began its investigation. The BBC has also faced criticism for livestreaming the set and has since apologised, describing the chants as 'antisemitic sentiments' that were 'unacceptable'. It later emerged BBC director-general Tim Davie was at Glastonbury while the performance was being livestreamed. Bob Vylan performed on the West Holts Stage at Glastonbury (Yui Mok/PA) A BBC spokesperson said: 'The director-general was informed of the incident after the performance and at that point he was clear it should not feature in any other Glastonbury coverage.' The group have since been banned from entering the US, ahead of their tour, with deputy secretary of state Christopher Landau revoking the duo's visas for their 'hateful tirade at Glastonbury'. They have also been pulled from their upcoming performance at a German music venue. Bob Vylan are expected to perform at the Boardmasters surfing and music festival in Newquay, Cornwall, in August. The group was formed in Ipswich in 2017, and are known for addressing political issues in their albums including racism, masculinity and class. Bobby Vylan is the stage name of Pascal Robinson-Foster, 34, according to reports, while his bandmate drummer uses the alias Bobbie Vylan.

Warning over 'dangerous' fake Labubu dolls
A warning has been issued over fake Labubu dolls, which present a choking hazard to young children, after a number were seized in Scotland. The toy's popularity began last year after K-Pop star Lisa from girl group Blackpink shared a photo of herself with one, with other celebrities such as Rihanna and Dua Lipa following suit. Pop Mart, which makes the furry bag charms, announced in May that it would be pulling all of its Labubu plushies from its 16 UK stores for a month over safety concerns. Toys seized from four premises in Aberdeen were found to have loose parts, posing a choking hazard to young children. Labubus are mischievous, wide-eyed dolls created by Hong Kong-based artist Kasing Lung With their wild tufts of hair, sharp-toothed grins, and childlike charm, they straddle the line between cute and creepy They are sold in a blind box so buyers don't know which version they'll get – fuelling a booming resale market First popular across China and Southeast Asia, they've have sparked viral trends on TikTok and Instagram For many, they've become more than a doll — Labubu is a fashion and lifestyle accessory Trading Standards Scotland Toys seized from four premises in Aberdeen were found to have loose parts, posing a choking hazard. East Ayrshire Trading Standards also issued a warning on Tuesday, saying it was 'aware of concerns of safety and counterfeiting'. The products also do not have the required safety labelling, including a supplier in the UK or EU. Labubu was created by designer Kasing Lung, and is also the name of the main character in the series of toys. Trading Standards Scotland Fake labubu dolls are flooding the market in Scotland. Trading standards manager Graeme Paton said: 'Following the discovery of counterfeit toys, we want to alert consumers and particularly parents to be extra vigilant. 'These counterfeit toys can seem like a bargain compared with trying to source the genuine toy, especially when they are a much-sought-after item, but they are potentially dangerous. 'Counterfeit toys can potentially pose significant dangers to young children, such as chemical exposure and choking hazards. 'These products routinely lack proper safety testing, and we encourage anyone concerned about the safety of toys they've purchased to get in touch with us via Consumer Advice Scotland.' Parents are being urged to check the toys' packaging carefully for CE or UKCA mark and the name and address of the supplier in the UK or EU to show that the product complies with safety regulations. Most will have warnings and instructions to ensure their safe use. Customers should only buy from reputable sellers and consider the price; if it's a lot cheaper than expected, it may be counterfeit.
