We've heard Carla mention a brother from time to time, most recently in the storyline surrounding her mother's death and funeral. They don't really get on and it seems he's not an upstanding citizen, if you get my drift.
ITV announced today that they're bringing Carla's brother to Weatherfield later this year and he'll be "mad, bad, and dangerous to know" as the saying goes. Actually, what they really said was "He's set to turn heads and break hearts as the new moody bad lad of the Street."
He seems to be unnamed yet (though I seem to recall his first name may be Darren) and uncast though it seems he should be a man in his thirties. I'm curious to know what his last name will be as we've never heard Carla mention her maiden name. And if Danger is his middle name, how much to you want to bet Maria will make a beeline for him?
