Coronation Street will see Amy Barlow take to social media to expose her horrific rape ordeal - as Aaron's family hits back.
Amy was raped by Aaron Sandford back in February when she was too drunk to consent. He has always denied it was rape, and later insisted she wanted it as much as he did.
She has since been trying to get her life back on track after trying to report the incident to the police. However, she wasn't taken seriously and ended up taking back the allegation - but is understandably still struggling with what happened to her.
And in new episodes, Amy opens up about what happened after she spots Mia at the garage and tells her.

Mia later confronts Aaron over the allegations but he told her they slept together and Amy cried rape and later changed her mind, with the police dropping the case.
Mia returns to thinking Amy made the whole thing up and is disgusted at the idea of Amy dragging his name through the mud.
Later, Amy receives a call from DS Swain, who tells her that a serious allegation of harassment has been made against her.

However, Tracy is adamant that they should fight the case.
