Coronation Street spoilers may have revealed who will come to Adam Barlow's rescue on the ITV soap, as he faces turmoil at the hands of his ex Lydia Chambers.
Carla Connor, the partner of Adam's uncle Peter Barlow, grows suspicious about newcomer Lydia in upcoming scenes.
Viewers have already seen Carla questioning Lydia's version of events, as she continues to secretly plot against Adam - something he is trying to prove his innocence over.
Now, it seems Carla will encourage Adam's wife Sarah to think things through before cutting her husband out of her life for good.
It comes following Lydia's reign of terror, that has seen her convince Weatherfield residents that she and Adam have been having an affair.

With hotel visits, dodgy bank statements and a secret phone, Lydia has stitched Adam up, and no one believes his claims of innocence.
Lydia has told Adam all about her plan to bring him down, while she hasn't explained why exactly she is doing it - other than to "dismantle his life".
The pair had dated when they were at university together, and Adam seems to recall their romance being quite brief.

From two months to six, he isn't entirely sure to be honest - while Lydia has suggested there was much more to their romance than he has claimed.
Lydia has yet to confirm her exact reasons for targeting him, but did confirm something happened in their past.
Next week, Adam tries to reconcile with Sarah after she recently kicked him out.
But after drowning his sorrows and being left pretty hungover, Adam's state does not impress his wife who still believes Lydia over him.
Spotting Lydia watching from the street, Adam storms over and tells her he will find a way to prove his innocence and expose her lies.
Later, Carla has a word with colleague Sarah that may hint whose side she is on.

Despite her differences with Adam after their past fling, Carla remains convinced that there is more to Lydia's claims.
She soon tells Sarah to reconsider what has been happening, and to think hard before cutting off Adam for good.
Carla suggests Lydia can't be trusted, so will she be the one to find out the truth and bring her down?
