Coronation Street spoilers have confirmed worrying scenes are ahead with a fire leaving one character in danger.
Next week, fans of the popular Virgin Media One soap will watch as Aaron Sandford discovers his father has been rushed to hospital after his house goes up in flames.
The teenager, who is going out with Summer Spellman, has been distant with his dad Eric since he revealed how his alcoholic father was violent towards him.

Refusing to see him, Aaron is relieved next week when Billy and Todd agree to visit Eric to check on him so that he doesn't have to.
Aaron is bombarded with angry text messages from his dad who lashes out at him, Mirror UK reports.
Summer fears what Eric will do to Aaron if he returns home, and soon Billy and Todd return from their visit and they report back that he was drunk and angry. This stops Aaron from going to see him - but then disaster to strikes.
Later that day, police show up at Summer's apartment and inform a devastated Aaron that there's been a fire at his home.
His injured father is rushed to hospital where he remains unconscious initially.
When he eventually wakes up, Aaron is left heartbroken when Eric groggily wishes he hadn’t survived the fire.
Aaron blames himself for ignoring his messages and leaving him unsupervised, believing if he had been at home it would never have happened.
Summer begs Aaron to let her share his burden, but her boyfriend refuses to open up about his heartache.
Instead, the character leaves his partner heartbroken when he tells her that he has to focus on his dad, and leaves.
Summer is crushed, but will Aaron change his mind and seek support from her?
It was only recently that Summer learned the horrifying truth that Aaron was beaten up by his dad, and that it had happened several times before.
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on Virgin Media One and the Virgin Media Player.
