Coronation Street: Carla’s found an unlikely friend in DS Swain
Viewers will know that Carla has been spending a lot of time around DS Swain in a bid to get Roy out of prison.

Getting into DS Lisa Swain’s car, Carla then provided her with a listening ear as she confessed that her partner Becky had died and that her daughter wasn’t handling things well.
