There's drama heading for Coronation Street next week as Shona Ramsey gets held hostage...

There's some serious danger heading for Coronation Street next week when Shona Ramsey finds herself dramatically being held hostage - by her own son!

The drama starts when Shona decides to go to Clayton's dad's funeral, and takes Billy along with her for moral support.

But once they're there, things rapidly go downhill when Clayton decides to escape from his prison guard just as they're laying his dad to rest.

Clayton has been manipulating Shona for weeks in Coronation Street

The official website for Coronation Street revealed today: "Billy offers to accompany Shona to Dane's funeral, but when they arrive Macca tells Shona she is not welcome.

"How will she react when Clayton wants nothing to do with her?"

But it soon becomes clear that her son not forgiving her for his prison beating is the least of the worried mum's problems, because it's not long before trouble erupts at the funeral service.
