🌑 THE END OF INNOCENCE: Sam Blakeman’s Darkest Storyline Is About To Shock Weatherfield 🚨

Coronation Street‘s Sam Blakeman turns to drugs to improve his falling grades next week, after twisted Megan Walsh attempts to ruin his reputation. As the only person wise enough to observe Megan’s grooming of teenage boys, Sam is now in her sights.

To keep her secret safe, Megan is using underhand tactics to show him the consequences of speaking out. Will he be able to rise above it, or become her next unwitting victim?

“Sam’s fighting a losing battle against devious Megan,” our Corrie source warns. “She knows how important school is to studious Sam – and she’s about to wreck it.

“Megan will do anything to keep her sick secret safe, no matter how low…”

Megan’s vendetta against Sam aims to show him what she’s capable of if he tries to cross her. And the stakes couldn’t be higher. If Sam reveals what he knows, Megan’s life is over.

However, after Megan’s manipulation, Sam is trapped – even if he tells the truth, he might not be believed…

At school, Sam is confused when Daniel Osbourne reveals that his essay has gone missing. Viewers recently saw Megan sneakily steal Sam’s work, taking the opportunity while Daniel was making his way through a pile of marking at the Rovers Return.

Realising Megan is behind the sabotage, Sam becomes furious. Feeling the burden of carrying Megan and Will’s terrible secret, Sam gets concerned about his slipping grades.

“Sam’s finding it hard to concentrate after Megan’s threats,” our spy continues. “When he hears Daniel talking about students misusing ADHD medication to boost their studies, Sam’s intrigued. It’s so out of character for Sam, but it’s all down to Megan…”

The next day, as Sam sets off for school, he gets a text offering him Ritalin for £5 a tab. Sly Megan also approaches him with an offer of extra support at school, claiming that she’s worried about his work. Which path will Sam take?

Later in the week, Megan begins sowing more seeds in her campaign against Sam. She lays it on thick with Daniel, pretending that Sam hates her and that he threw her tutoring offer back in her face.

Will Daniel believe the picture Megan has painted of model student Sam? Or will her efforts to destroy Sam’s credibility as an honest teenager pay off if he succumbs to taking drugs in secret?

Coronation Street‘s producer Kate Brooks first teased this story last month, warning that Sam would face a tough time once he knew the truth about Megan.

“[Sam] potentially gets wind that something’s amiss,” Brooks said. “We will see the lengths that Megan will go to in order to manipulate Sam and to keep him quiet, and it will be massively detrimental to Sam’s wellbeing.”
