TRAILER: Phelan's Revenge
All eyes will be on Pat Phelan as he makes a dramatic return to Coronation Street this month for one final showdown.
A bruised and battered Phelan has been lying low away from Weatherfield. But despite his absence he’s still been keeping a close eye on those he feels have wronged him and on those he may wish to take his revenge. So when Gary tracks Phelan down to a campsite in Wales and drags him back to the Street, his pent up fury is unleashed.
In this gripping trailer from ITV Creative the residents reel in shock and horror as they realise Phelan has been watching their every move. As he lurks around each corner we see there is nowhere to hide from Pat as he wreaks his villainous revenge.

Tony Pipes, Executive Creative Director of ITV Creative said:
"Pat Phelan, arguably Coronation Street’s greatest villain of all time, deserved an equally villainous promotional spot to alert the audience of his return to the Street. We wanted to take the iconic street and show it as it’s never been shown before, dripping with a claustrophobically foreboding atmosphere.
"We placed Pat Phelan at the heart of the promo, appearing impossibly around every corner of the street for five unsuspecting characters: Nicola, Seb, Eileen, Gary and Sarah. The spot ends by revealing an army of approaching Pat Phelan's surrounding the five huddled characters. This final climactic scene was captured using a combination of motion control and lighting special effects."
The dramatic week of episodes will be stripped across the week between Monday 28th May and Friday 1st June, as some of the show’s biggest storylines come to a head.
As well as Phelan’s vengeful return to the street, Michelle prepares to marry Robert and David fights to take control of his life after his rape ordeal.
But with emotions running high and twists around every corner can good prevail over evil and will love conquer all?
