Coronation Street viewers are going to see Geoff Metcalfe (played by Ian Bartholomew) return to Weatherfield in upcoming scenes after being discharged from hospital following Yasmeen Nazir’s (Shelley King) attack. After the slight hiccup of his key not opening the front door, official soap spoilers have shown Geoff removing all CCTV footage from the night of the incident. But it seems this could be a major slip for the evil man and could be how he finally gets his comeuppance.
For months, Alya Nazir (Sair Khan) has tried to convince her grandmother Yasmeen how controlling and manipulating Geoff was towards her.
Unfortunately, Yasmeen was too far under Geoff’s influence to see it herself and it wasn’t until she lashed out in self-defence did she realise what a monster Geoff was.
In recent scenes, Yasmeen entered a bail hearing but was denied access to return home after the judge decided her 999 phone call, in which she admitted to trying to kill Geoff, was enough to consider her a flight risk.
While this wasn’t the outcome Yasmeen, her lawyer Imran Habeeb (Charlie De Melo) or Alya wanted, the latter still managed to throw a spanner into Geoff’s plans when she changed the front door locks.

Gail Platt exit: Will Gail Platt leave Coronation Street?
But this only interrupted his day for a matter of hours and after settling comfortably into his home, Geoff remembers he needs to delete all evidence of him provoking Yasmeen.
A few months ago, after setting up a burglary in their house, Geoff insisted they install cameras.
Yasmeen was furious with her husband for not consulting her on the matter and asked him to remove them all.
While Geoff did what she asked, he left one of them up so he could spy on his wife while he wasn’t there.
The camera films 24/7 and it presumably caught all the actions which took place that fatal night when Yasmeen slashed Geoff’s neck with a broken wine bottom after he lunged at her.
Realising he needs to delete this, he sets about turning on his laptop but is interrupted by his son Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine).
Spoilers have shown Tim’s presence surprising Geoff, with his focus on the laptop screen.
The night of the incident, Geoff had forced Yasmeen to wear a provocative red dress – something which would be extremely obvious on camera footage.

There has been speculation Tim may have spotted Geoff trying to delete the footage and the actor who plays Geoff has spoken out about this scene.
“He doesn’t want anything to contradict his side of the story,” Ian reveals.
“Any CCTV footage, incriminating or not, has to go. Then it’s his word against Yasmeen’s.
“And for months he’s been spreading the story that, ‘She’s not a well woman is she?’”
