Last night’s episode of Coronation Street (Wednesday, April 10), saw Roy come face to face with ‘Kerry’ – Lauren Bolton’s mum.

‘Kerry’ explained that she just wanted to speak to someone who knew Lauren, ending up agreeing to stay the night at Roy’s.

With Roy being constantly trolled and abused by sleuths, Corrie fans have truly had enough of this storyline.

Coronation Street: Roy met ‘Kerry’

After finding Lauren’s mum’s contact details online, Roy has been trying to get in touch with her.

Last night, Nina made it clear that everyone was to continue picking up the phone in case ‘Kerry’ called.

Roy continued to receive abusive phone calls though, with Evelyn even finding some nasty comments made by Hayley’s son, Christian.

Later on, Lauren’s mum turned up at the café and revealed that she and Lauren had lost touch. The police wouldn’t tell her anything so she wanted to hear about Lauren from someone who knew her.

She believed Roy to be innocent, admitting that she’d travelled up North without a place to stay. Roy then offered his flat to her for the night.

Once Roy was out of the room though, ‘Kerry’ took a mysterious phone call. Viewers then saw that she had pepper spray in her bag, suggesting that she had an ulterior motive for befriending Roy.

Coronation Street fans had enough of Roy targeting

Corrie fans think that the current Roy storyline has gone on for long enough. They don’t like seeing Roy being treated badly, losing their will to watch the soap as long as the storyline continues.

Another person shared: “I find myself pausing during the Roy bits, then fast forwarding through them, as it’s quite upsetting.”

A third viewer moaned: “I skip the Roy storyline right now. I hate what the writers are trying to do so I just fast forward. I feel like I am growing out of soaps? Life is hard enough without watching good characters being treated harshly. Maybe I need to switch to happier entertainment.”
