Alya Nazir (Sair Khan) was left in peril in tonight\u2019s dramatic Coronation Street<\/a> (25th January), as doctors battled to save her after she was stabbed by teen Blake (Adam Little)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The awful action unfolded during the drop-in session for the refugee centre, which was taking place at Speed Daal. Alya and her grandmother Yasmeen Metcalfe (Shelley King) were helping councillor Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) host the event, but at home, groomed youngster Max Turner (Paddy Bever) watched as Blake livestreamed from the venue.<\/p>\n

Blake was keen to spread his own message of hate over Maria\u2019s plans, and Max\u2019s viewing was interrupted when dad David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) confiscated his phone. When he finally tuned back in, Max panicked when he saw Blake brandishing a knife, and he rushed out of the house to raise the alarm.<\/p>\n

At the event, Maria gave a speech about welcoming everyone into the community, no matter who they are or where they are from. All was going well, but Blake circulated, and made furtive running commentary as he ridiculed Maria.<\/p>

When Max tried to get into Speed Daal, Maria\u2019s already anxious husband Gary Windass (Mikey North) barred him from entering \u2013 thinking that Max was only bringing trouble their way. Stuck watching from a distance, Max was horrified as Blake suddenly held the knife up, and Daryan Zahawi (Twana Omer) shouted that there was a weapon.<\/p>\n

As Blake launched at Maria, Alya jumped in to protect her<\/a>, and she was stabbed in the stomach. Alya fell to the floor as blood poured from the wound, while Gary and Daryan were able to grab the knife and trap Blake.<\/p>\n

He was soon arrested, and chillingly, Blake told Max that he had inspired him to go on the attack. Gary pointed the police in Max\u2019s direction, while Maria headed to the hospital to check on Alya.<\/p>\n

Once there, Yasmeen informed her that it looked like Alya would be OK \u2013 but as a doctor approached and explained that she had a punctured lung and was being taken into surgery, Yasmeen crumbled in Maria\u2019s arms.<\/p>\n

Will Alya survive? And what\u2019s next for Max as he faces the consequences of Blake\u2019s actions?<\/p>\n
