Coronation Street has an Abi Webster-shaped plot hole going on right now. During Monday's hour-long episode of the ITV soap, the former drug addict spied her old dealer Dean Turnbull skulking away from the Webster's Autocentre entrance. In reality, he'd come to scare newcomer Cassie Plummer into squaring a £70 debt with him, yet Abi assumed that he was back on the scene looking to do some business with her.
Having witnessed Abi then ring Dean up, ordering him to back off, Corrie fans on social media pointed out that if she was truly off the hard drugs, she'd have deleted his phone number ages ago. "Why does Abi still have the number of her ex-dealer saved onto her phone. #corrie," asked one of them, before three more concurred: "Love how Abi still has her drug dealer on speed dial", "So hang on, Abbie is in 'recovery' yet has the smack dealers number on speed dial?" and "Abi is done with her old dealer but obviously keeps his number on her phone.
Yeah... #coronationstreet #Corrie". The backlash didn't stop there, either, as another load of soap watchers weighed in with their disbelief.
"Abi still has the drug dealers number. No chance. #Corrie", "Abi the reformed substance misuse police who is apparently in recovery but kept dealers phone numbers #Corrie" and "How convenient 'ey recovered Abi keeps the number of her old dealer in her phone for when he comes looking for her friends crackhead mother...
#Corrie," they wrote. Having eventually caught Cassie raiding the garage's petty cash tin, Abi made her tell the truth about what's going on. The parallels between the pair were there for all to see, with the addict-in-recovery offering some much-needed support to a struggling Cassie.
