Big news from Weatherfield: Amy Barlow has found herself in a perilous situation after joining a mysterious cult known as The Institute. This group has a chilling practice called “uploading,” where members disclose their deepest traumas. Given Amy’s traumatic past, including a horrific rape experience, this process was especially daunting for her.

Amy was convinced to participate in this traumatic sharing by Leanne, who promised it would be a therapeutic experience. However, it turned out that Rowan Cliff, a key figure in the cult, was secretly recording Amy as she recounted her painful memories. When Leanne discovered this breach of trust, Rowan defended his actions by claiming the recording was for Amy’s own good and assured that the footage would be destroyed once the training was complete.

Unaware of the recording, Amy decided to make a significant donation to The Institute, hoping it would mark a fresh start for her. Her next step was a session involving a blindfold, intended to further her supposed personal development. Al Mulaney, a fellow cast member, revealed that this experience was deeply unsettling, as being blindfolded made Amy feel lost and vulnerable, intensifying her trauma. Rowan uses such tactics to break people down, only to build them up again, ensuring they become reliant on him.

Amy’s distress reached a tipping point, leading her to decide to leave the cult and return her money. However, she soon discovered that her £40,000 donation was non-refundable. Rowan insisted that it was Leanne’s responsibility to rectify the situation. Facing this financial setback and the threat of public exposure, Leanne offered Amy her job back at the bistro to dissuade her from suing The Institute. Leanne argued that the cult’s methods were ultimately beneficial, trying to convince Amy that The Institute had her best interests at heart.

Amy was still weighing her options when she received a voicemail from an unknown number. The message filled her with terror, leaving viewers on edge about what this ominous communication might mean for her future.

In other news, longtime fans of Coronation Street are mourning the departure of Lisa George, who portrayed Beth Tinker. After 13 years on the show, Beth’s exit was both abrupt and emotional.

Kit, enraged by Beth’s attempts to expose his corrupt activities, threatened to reveal damaging information about her son Craig unless Beth left town.

Lisa George has expressed her deep sadness about leaving the show, describing how emotional her final scenes were. Fans took to social media to voice their dissatisfaction with Beth’s hasty exit, criticizing the rushed nature of her farewell and expressing disappointment over the lack of closure.
