Coronation Street fans are convinced viewers could be getting a new DS Lisa Swain family member.
DS Lisa Swain, played by Vicky Myers, has been on the ITV soap since 2021 but became a cobbles regular earlier this year, where viewers were introduced to her rebellious daughter Betsy, played by Sydney Martin.
Not much is known about DS Swain’s life other than the fact she has a daughter, Betsy, and her partner Becky – Betsy’s other mum – tragically died.
Only recently, DS Swain and Betsy have been a big focus on the ITV soap due to the Joel Deering (Calum Lill) whodunnit.
DS Swain is investigating the case while her daughter Betsy was targeted by the evil solicitor before he went missing and was murdered.

In a recent episode, Betsy spoke to Mason Radcliffe, played by Luca Toolan, who is also a suspect in the Joel whodunnit, at Roy’s Rolls. Mason, who has been sleeping rough, was seen tucking into toast to which Betsy commented: “Trying to make your hair go curly? That’s what my aunt says when you eat the crusts!”
Soap watchers were left delighted over the mention of another Swain family member, predicting they could make an arrival on the cobbles. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: “‘My aunt’ Ok, swarla nation, Betsy has mentioned an aunt… Lisa’s sister? Becky’s sister? Who is she! #corrie”. (sic)
Meanwhile, a different viewer wrote: “Betsy has an aunt! New Swain unlocked. #Corrie!” This caused another account to reply: “THIS IS NEW INFORMATION.” While a different soap watcher speculated: “I’m thinking Becky’s sister.” (sic)
