Coronation Street viewers were left reeling after the latest episode - which saw Peter Barlow involved in a violent turn of events.
The latest episode of Coronation Street (which aired Monday 13th November 2023) saw Peter clash with school bully Mason Radcliffe, with things getting violent between the pair.
Viewers were quick to comment on the dramatic episode, leaping to Peter's defence. One fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), 'Poor Peter can't catch a break! As if bullies weren't bad enough, now they're bringing knives to the playground?
'Time for Liam to block Mason's number and keep everyone safe! Can't wait to see the drama unfold on #Corrie!'

While another said, 'Seriously?! They arrested Peter on #Corrie when he acted to defend someone else? Meanwhile, #DAYS couldn’t even arrest a serial killer.'

We already know that Peter is sadly due to leave the cobbles at the end of this year - could this be the beginning of things spiralling out of control?
