To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video With the wedding of their dreams just around the corner, Carla Connor (Alison King) and Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) are forced to bid a heartbreaking farewell to a beloved family member. Damn you, Corrie. Swarla was in a good place. Carla had forgiven Lisa for being seduced her Fatal Attraction On A Budget ex-wife Becky Swain (Amy Cudden). She got over the whole being locked in an airing cupboard’ debacle and accepted Lisa’s romantic proposal in the Rovers. They were happy! Us viewers were happy! We had a wedding to look forward to. Okay, said wedding was somewhat overshadowed by the grim portent of a flashforward where Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin) discovers a body at said wedding, but hey. A wedding is a wedding. Then, back in late February, the Corrie writers threw Swarla another curve ball when they found an unexpected delivery on their doorstep – a baby. Bye bye, baby. (Picture: ITV) That awkward moment when Amazon deliver the wrong parcel…(Picture: ITV) … and that parcel needs its nappy changing. (Picture: ITV) This wasn’t a case of the stork making a stop at the wrong house. This was Connie, the daughter of the daughter of Carla’s murdering brother Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis). Rob made a name for himself in the Corrie Villain Hall Of Fame by murdering Weatherfield icon Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan)to protect Carla from the fallout of Peter Barlow’s (Chris Gascoyne) affair.  Although Carla initially promised to keep his secret, she couldn’t live with the guilt and ultimately called the police on her own brother, leading to his 25-year prison sentence. It’s just as well that Connie’s deranged dad Rob isn’t still around. (Picture: ITV) However, Rob managed to cause even more chaos from inside by fathering a child with prison guard Mandy Waring (Rebecca Atkinson), then pretending to be Carla’s kidney donor only to use the surgery as an opportunity to bust out of jail. Cue a violent hostage situation ending in the tragic accidental shooting of Betsy Swain, leading to Rob’s recapture and return to the nick where he belongs. However, it turns out that Mandy was pregnant and gave birth to Baby Connie. This was a surprise to viewers as much as it was to Carla and Lisa, who discovered that Connie’s grandmother had left them to care for the infant while she was in hospital. Carla was not exactly thrilled to be left holding the baby. (Picture: ITV) Don't miss a Soaps scoop!

Not just because the little mite was the daughter of her psycho baby bro, but due to own trauma from a tragic miscarriage in 2014. But Lisa pointed out that without their help, the poor kid would have ended up in care. So with Lisa’s help, Carl agreed to take on the baby. Caring for a little girl was the perfect bit of sweet comic relief audiences needed after an unhinged ex spent months trying to split up their favourite soap couple – even if it was slightly spoiled by bunny-boiling baddie Jodie Ramsey taking a weird interest in bonding with the baby and randomly stealing Lisa’s police badge. Jodie’s enthusiasm to babysit Connie left fans baffled. (Picture: ITV) But all good things must come to an end – on Corrie, anyways. Upcoming episodes will see Carla get some heartbreaking news about the newest addition to their family.
