One Coronation Street star has promised “big” scenes ahead on the ITV soap in the coming months.

Summer Spellman actress Harriet Bibby spoke exclusively to The Mirror about the upcoming storylines for her character. She also teased the 65th anniversary plans for later this year, and the big Emmerdale crossover airing in 2026.

After months of not being onscreen much, Harriet explained to us that she was having a quieter year following the huge and emotional 2024 storyline, that saw Summer’s father figure Paul Foreman d13 after battling motor neurone disease. Summer featured heavily in this storyline, with lots of difficult scenes for actress Harriet.

Often in soaps when a character features in a massive storyline, they tend to then go quiet which is what has happened with Summer. But that’s all about to change as next week, she takes centre stage once more.

This time, Summer and other characters are caught up in a DGs storyline, as three characters take *** at a house party. What follows is a dramatic and devastating sequence of events.

Teasing more from Summer ahead, Harriet told us: “I’ve had a quieter year this year after the big storyline with Paul last year. It was brilliant, we loved doing it even though every day we were in tears.

“We will be seeing more of Summer in the coming months.” Harriet also teased the big stuff on the way, saying: “I’m really excited about the crossover. It’s never been done before. It will be fun and a little different.

“I am hoping to be a part of it but we have no idea. I’d love to meet the Dingles.” When asked about the 65th, she said: “I’m the worst person to ask, everything you’re asking me I’m asking the bosses! It will be something big though.”

As for the huge DGs storyline that is coming up, Harriet teased what the fallout will be with it clear something has happened, and that Summer and pal Nina Lucas have been witnesses to something while high. Revealing “the night takes a turn”, she teased: “Even with no DGs in their system they’d be feeling really shocked, upset and concerned about what’s just happened.

“So times that by 10 with the *** they’ve got in their system and they’re distraught. They’re really worried and really scared about what’s just happened.” Harriet went on: “They figure out that they’ve witnessed something.

“They have different opinions on what to do with this and it causes a little bit of friction between them. Nina thinks they should tell someone and report it whereas Summer is more convinced that they don’t know what they’ve seen because they were affected by the *** so there’s no point in reporting anything as they don’t know for sure that something happened.

“They’re very confused by what they think they saw because they’re unsure about what was reality and what was not.” On the future impact of the huge plot, she shared: “I think when you find yourselves in quite dangerous situations, and it’s not just Summer and Nina who are affected, you look back and think that was a really stupid idea. It affects a lot of different people in different ways and it could have been avoided if these DGs were not at the party.”
