Coronation Street Gary Windass' whereabouts and what happened revealed after update

The latest episode of Coronation Street saw concern for missing Gary Windass, with fans and characters left asking where he was and what had happened to him.

New spoilers have shed light on the details, with them giving away his exact location. While we still don't know fully what has led him there, spoilers have hinted at what happened to him ahead of scenes airing.

Recently we saw Gary flee the street to stay with his mother Anna Windass, after his marriage to Maria Connor hit the rocks. A shocking blackmail storyline with Lou Michaelis left Gary with something to hide, with him soon visiting Anna.

He was due back ages ago though, leaving Maria annoyed and concerned when he failed to show. Spoilers confirmed that Maria would be left unsure what had happened to him, trying to make contact to figure out where he was.

With Maria's son Liam Connor concerned about his stepfather, Wednesday's episode showed him panicked over what was going on. He also feared the couple were splitting up, and maybe that was why Gary had failed to return home.

Maria did her best to reassure him, suggesting Gary may have gotten mixed up with his dates and would be home soon. With her clearly worried herself, she claimed there was nothing to worry about before leaving Gary a voicemail, wanting answers.

Spoilers for Friday's episode have revealed she does finally get a message seemingly from Gary, who tells her he has been with a mate. He claims he's coming home soon leaving her relieved.

But a twist in spoilers for next week's episodes have hinted at a dark twist. In the spoilers, Gary's whereabouts are finally revealed and it's not good news.

Not only do the spoilers give a specific location, but the cryptic teasers also hint something bad has happened to him. Ahead of the full details being revealed, we can confirm that next week's episodes reveal Gary is unconscious in hospital.

As confusion mounts over his whereabouts and him not coming home, it seems Maria loses contact with him. Viewers will then see Gary in a hospital bed, as we finally see him after weeks offscreen.

It seems his life could be on the line in a deadly twist, as the character takes a turn for the worse. As he deteriorates, a nurse rushes over to him and tries to help him.

But can Gary be saved or is a shocking death about to be announced? It's clear something very bad has happened to Gary in his absence, while spoilers and images remain coy over what went down.

Whether it was a medical issue or someone has put him in hospital remains to be seen, but fans will find out very soon. As for Gary's fate and whether anyone will find out where he is next week, that's another thing fans will have to keep an eye out for.
