Itvx release exposes hidden-camera footage that could undo Megan Walsh on Coronation Street
Hidden-camera footage released early on Itvx appears to show teacher Megan Walsh together with pupil Will Driscoll, escalating a storyline that has placed Sam Blakeman at the centre of an effort to expose her. The clip arrives as the soap prepares to air at 8: 30 p. m., bringing new urgency to Sam’s campaign to catch Megan out.
Sam plants a camera at Leanne Battersby’s flat
Sam Blakeman used a spare key to enter Leanne Battersby’s flat and planted a camera on a bookshelf in an attempt to record Megan and Will meeting in private. The recording surfaced in the early Itvx release and shows Megan leaving the flat with Will before they drive away, after she has booked a hotel room to avoid being seen. Sam has been watching the footage on his phone in the Bistro when his father, Nick Tilley, takes the device and declares a night out without technology.
Secrets, threats and a pregnancy claim
Megan has told Will that she is pregnant and has claimed the baby is his, while also maintaining a relationship with Daniel Osbourne, who remains unaware of Megan’s secret meetings. Will, a character described as recently turned sixteen, has been linked to Megan since her arrival in Weatherfield, and another young man, Lee, later confirmed he and Megan had been intimate while he was under age. When Sam confronted what he suspected, Megan issued a menacing warning to keep him quiet.
How the clip reached viewers and what happened next
Viewers first saw the footage in an early stream on Itvx ahead of the broadcast. In scenes that followed, Megan tried to manage Sam by telling him she would be back by 4 p. m. and asking Will to play 'good cop' while she played 'bad cop' to keep Sam onside. Will later invites Sam out and tells Megan by text that he has “sorted it, ” but Sam has already hidden a camera and reviewed the footage in the Bistro before his phone is taken by Nick Tilley.
Daniel Osbourne has been portrayed as Megan’s unsuspecting partner, having helped her secure a teaching role at Weatherfield High while she nurtures a secret affair with the pupil. The mounting revelations — the hidden camera, Megan’s pregnancy claim, and Lee’s confirmation of a prior encounter — tighten the focus on whether Sam’s evidence will survive the confiscation of his phone.
Fans watching on social media have mocked the camera’s concealment in the flat, calling it obvious, while Sam’s insistence that something is wrong has hardened into a determined attempt to expose Megan’s conduct. The early Itvx release places that attempt at the centre of the storyline as the episode airs at 8: 30 p. m.
The next confirmed moment for viewers is the evening broadcast at 8: 30 p. m., when the episode will reveal whether Sam regains his phone and whether the footage in the early Itvx release changes how other characters respond to Megan’s actions.
