Since the arrival of Jacob Hay’s (Jack James Ryan) dad Damon (Ciaran Griffiths) in Coronation Street, things have taken a turn for the worse for the teen. They’re set to spiral even further out of control when a sniffer dog identifies drugs in the Bistro kitchen.

A new spoiler video has shown a party of police officers celebrating a colleague’s retirement, alongside Simba the sniffer dog.

However, as PC Craig Tinker (Colson Smith) raises a toast, they spot Simba behaving strangely. The off-duty officers are quick to note that he appears to have caught a scent, and ask Leanne (Jane Danson) for access to the kitchen.

As they enter, clever Simba makes a beeline for a crate of what should be balsamic vinegar.

It becomes suddenly very apparent to Leanne what is happening, as she asks where Jacob has disappeared to. She demands that he is found, and Ryan (Ryan Prescott) agrees in quiet understanding.

This unexpected search comes just after Damon demanded that his son help him smuggle drugs into the Bistro through the deliveries.

Jacob, having just started to get his feet back on the ground, was reluctant to get involved, though Damon didn’t offer him much choice.

With Leanne determined to get to the bottom of the apparent drug discovery, will it end in disaster for poor Jacob?
