Dylan Wilson (Liam McCheyne) recently made a friend in Coronation Street. But when you have friends like Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan) you most certainly don’t need enemies. That boy is seriously bad news, and his horrible behaviour is about to get a whole lot worse.

Previously Mason has targeted young Liam Connor (Charlie Wrenshall), resulting in Liam ending up in hospital. He suffered an asthma attack after Dylan and Mason goaded him into trying a disposable vape. As Liam began to fall ill, Mason legged it and left Dylan to deal with the situation.

Maria (Samia Longchambon) and Gary (Mikey North) were furious when they found out what had happened to Liam, and Gary warned Maria that Mason’s family were notorious in the area and Liam should avoid him.

In upcoming episodes, Sean (Antony Cotton) is on the warpath about Dylan’s missing trainers. Mason made Dylan hand the shoes over after Sean got rid of some disposable vapes that Dylan had been hiding in the house for Mason.

Sean plans to go to the school to report the missing trainers to the head, and a scared Dylan warns Mason.

Mason tells the head that it was Liam who stole Dylan’s trainers and sure enough when she opens Liam’s locker, there they are. Liam immediately realises he’s been stitched up.

Poor Liam then starts to receive a barrage of texts from Mason, warning him of the consequences if he tells Gary who really stole the trainers.

Obviously Mason fancies himself as a hard man, but he’s not hard enough to go up against Gary Windass.

In this new video, we see the moment Mason threatens Liam and says that if Gary gets wind of what’s going on, Maria will suffer.

Liam rushes off, leaving a quiet Dylan to wonder if he’s doing the right thing by sticking with Mason and his so-called friends.

The storyline is set to get very dark indeed as it becomes clear exactly how far Mason is willing to go.

‘He’s a very angry and disturbed soul,’ actor Luca Toolan told us. ‘I would stay away from people like Mason.’

Unfortunately Liam doesn’t have much choice about that and soon finds himself in horrific danger when Mason and his gang corner him in Victoria Court, showering him in rubbish and calling him a rat.

And then Mason pulls out a knife and threatens him.

It’s a terrifying situation for the young boy, but with Mason’s threats about Maria still ringing in his ears, he knows he can’t tell anyone about what’s happening to him.

How will Mason be stopped?
