Love is in the air at 'Coronation Street' - or is it? (ITV)

Coronation Street's residents are set for a Valentine's Day to remember for all the wrong reasons with revenge, torment and family rifts on the cards.

Love might be in the air for many on Monday, but heartache is set for two of Weatherfield's couples as a sinister storyline kicks off and a Romeo-and-Juliet-style forbidden romance hits a stumbling block.

Viewers will see scheming Lydia Chambers (Rebecca Ryan) attempt to rip ex Adam Barlow's (Sam Robertson) life apart as she tries to ruin his relationship with wife Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) once and for all.

In a recent shock twist, the ITV soap revealed that Adam's recent tormentor was his ex-girlfriend who has befriended Sarah in an effort to get close to the couple.
