Ed's Demons Return

Ed Bailey, played by Trevor Michael Georges, is facing the devastating return of his gambling addiction on Coronation Street. The character first revealed his struggle with gambling when his family settled on the Cobbles in 2019. However, it seems that Ed's demons have resurfaced in recent weeks.

The Temptation

In upcoming episodes of Coronation Street, Ed finds himself in a difficult situation when Neil, the site manager, suggests they place a bet on when the digger will arrive. As the lads gather in the Rovers to watch the match, Neil tempts Ed to join in. Despite his past struggles, Ed is sorely tempted to give in.

A Dark Past

After snapping at Neil, Ed apologizes and reveals that he used to be a gambling addict. This admission highlights the deep-seated issues that Ed still battles with, despite trying to move forward.

A Shocking Discovery

While at the building site, Ed notices that the digger driver seems troubled and rushes over to investigate. To their horror, Ed and Ronnie discover that the digger has unearthed a dead body. This shocking revelation has far-reaching consequences for their building project.

The Fallout

Dee-Dee, the solicitor, breaks the news that the project's investor has pulled out due to the grim discovery. Ronnie suggests cutting their losses and abandoning the project, but Ed is determined to see it through. Despite the risks, Ed is unwilling to give up.

Will Ed Risk It All?

Alone and with the adrenaline pumping, Ed finds himself watching horse racing, faced with a dangerous temptation. The question remains: will he risk everything, including his family and their future, for the thrill of gambling once again?
