In the July 29 episode of Coronation Street, Tyrone Dobbs' father Ross Wilkes made a deadly threat to Cassie Plummer, warning her that if she comes between him and Tyrone again, he will kill her. The threat comes as Cassie's exit from the ITV soap looms.
Ross's dark side emerges
Ross arrived in Weatherfield two weeks ago after Tyrone's daughters Ruby and Hope tracked him down via a DNA website. However, Ross failed to reveal that hours before meeting his son, he had been with Cassie at the Chariot Square Hotel. Cassie, unaware of his identity, shared drinks with him. As she drank more, Ross began making vile comments about her behavior, leaving her horrified. After he left, Cassie saw the bar tab and realized she had been with Tyrone's father.
Cassie's traumatic revelation
In the episode, Cassie confessed to Tyrone that she met Ross when she was 15 and that he paid for sex, resulting in her pregnancy with Tyrone. Tyrone confronted Ross, but Ross convinced him he had changed. Cassie reluctantly agreed to give Ross another chance, but later, Ross approached her alone, pinned her against a wall, and threatened her life if she interfered with his relationship with Tyrone.
What's next for Cassie?
With Claire Sweeney's exit from Coronation Street approaching, the threat raises questions about whether Ross will kill Cassie to keep his secret. The episode aired on ITVX and YouTube before its ITV1 broadcast, and viewers are left wondering what Ross is capable of.
