Ben Price, who plays Nick Tilsley on Coronation Street was interviewed today on ITV's This Morning. He talked about the Christmas day storyline of Nick and Leanne's wedding and then revealed there's a huge twist ahead for Nick. Digital Spy have the full story here.
Ben said this about filming his upcoming shock storyline: "I'm quite a way ahead - I'm into February now, March. I finish on Friday, we get two weeks off and the studio stops, which is great. Then we come back and you're a bit more energised. But the story moves on so quickly in Corrie. Now I'm dealing with a whole different kind of mess. Peter's sort of gone to the side, and I'm dealing in something very, very big. Huge, really big!
"[It] happens on Christmas Day apart from the wedding. It will ripple through his life for the rest of time - and the Platts'!"
Now then, what are your guesses as to what it could be? I'm wondering if it'll involve Kylie and babies...? The reason I think this is that it's already been rumoured that Kylie will have a fling with a "mystery man" on Christmas Day - and I'm thinking it could well be Nick in light of what Ben said today. Then we'll have a Who's The Daddy? storyline pitting Nick and David against each other early next year. Could be good.

Kylie's on the pill, so it can't be her.

I just can't see Nick doing that to his brother but i suppose...it's a soap. I would have thought Kylie and a heartbroken Tommy would have been more likely to bump uglies in the night. Nick....and Carla maybe?
I'm sure it can be conveniently forgotten that Kylie is on the Pill after the Betty owning the Rovers fiasco. Not sure it will be Kylie and Nick though - I thought she was going to have a fling with Tommeh? Maybe it will be the Gail/Lewis/Audrey entanglement?
They will explain it away by saying the pill isn't 100% and Collinson will go on with another lame and unbelievable story line.
It does not take to genius to work it out. Kylie snogging Tommy was a red herring. The only life consequences for these writers is babies. I would prefer it to be that Nick accidently runs over Max with his BMW. David would set out to murder him (perhaps not literally). Gail would be torn and Kylie would react in her usual dignified, composed manner (yes that is sarcastic). Nick would hate himself. Or it might be Simon he runs over and kills. That would add another dynamic to the Peter/Nick/Leanne triangle.
Not another who's the daddy story! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no and no. NO!
Alas, couldn't leave a comment below to agree with you about the Carla Connor story Flaming Nora! And another who's the daddy story (not to mention adding ANOTHER love interest to the Nick/Leanne/Peter/Carla square)makes me want to scream!!

Kylie boinks Tommy.
Could it be the return of Natasha??? I do hope so!-NN
I really hope its not Nick and Kylie. Nick would not credibly do it to his brother and why spoil a friendship that he has with Kylie for mindless loveless sex? If Kylie is another one that gets pregnant after a one night stand despite taking the pill then I really despair of the writers, its the same old same old with different characters interposed.
WHile it is possible to get pregnant while on the pill, it's most definitely possible to get pregnant on a soap if you've had a one night stand with the wrong person. It's Soap Law. She'll feel faint within a week.
Well, soap weddings often have an uninvited guest who crashes the ceremony. We don't know much about Nick's previous life so it could be he had a family in Nottingham (?). If not this scenario, it's more likely to be Eva than Kylie that he cavorts with.
Ben Price is too old to play Nick. Perhaps he gets diagnosed with that disease that makes you age too rapidly. Probably not. Non emergencies don't get diagnosed on Christmas Day. Just like weddings don't happen then either....
"Well, soap weddings often have an uninvited guest who crashes the ceremony."
Well if not Eva, perhaps the girlfriend prior to her (woshername?) turns up at Nick's wedding - with a baby in tow?
He says it will impact him for the rest of time and the Platts - so could be Natasha returning with his baby? Do hope he does not have a fling with Kylie.
I reckon Nick and Kylie do sleep together!
This is my view of what's going to happen -
On Xmas Eve, Peter will try to stop Leanne marrying Nick. He will try to convince her and himself that they were good together once and should give their relationship another go. He knows Leanne still loves him and will play on her feelings because he hates Nick - it will be obvious that Leanne wants him to kiss her, (Personally, I think Leanne bouncing back and forth between the two men is disgusting)
Peter will have made Leanne question her feelings for Nick, so then he will leave. Mission complete. What he won't know at that point is, Carla has come back!
On Xmas morning, Leanne's head will be all over the place. She will be thinking of Peter and she is going to think that Peter wants her back. She will run over to his flat in her wedding dress, charge upstairs before Peter has chance to stop her and Carla will hear something has gone on. Peter loves Carla, he's not going to want Leanne back now that he's got Carla back, so it will kick off with those three and then Leanne will decide that it is Nick she wants after all!
The wedding will be going very well but Eva will stand up and tell Nick and everyone else why Leanne was late arriving. She will probably say something like, "We were late because Leanne just popped over the road to see her ex-husband Peter Barlow, cos she wanted to know if he wanted her back!" Nick will be upset and run off, Kylie will go to comfort him. It will turn into passion!
Maybe Kylie will discover she's pregnant but I find it unlikely because she's still on the pill, isn't she?
