Coronation Street took a very dark tonight as Pat Phelan planned to chain up Daniel Osbourne "for the rest of his life".
Andy Carver hit rock bottom and planned to commit suicide by taking all of the painkillers he had been storing up over time.
The former barman has seen his own freedom cruelly torn from him from Pat Phelan time after time - and it appeared that he had lost all hope in ever escaping.
But in a shock twist, Phelan finally agreed to Andy's replacement plan, with Daniel set to become his latest victim.

Recently, viewers have watched as Andy has hoped that he would be able to swap with another prisoner, but Phelan laughed off the idea.
Now it seems that Andy may finally be able to see the light of day again, at the expense of unsuspecting Daniel.
The wannabe journalist's snooping around the Calcutta flats scam has attracted the attention of Phelan, who followed him to an old people's home and threatened him on his doorstep.

Viewers were led into thinking Andy had taken his own life by overdosing, but it was revealed he was only sleeping as Pat managed to shake some life back into him.
Revealing his new plan, the villain said: "I'm no killer, but I've found somebody else. Someone I'd be happy to see chained up in here for the rest of their lives.
"Your replacement plan, it's on son, people should really learn not to make Pat angry."
While it's bad news for one resident, Andy will be delighted to secure his freedom and could take his old job at the Bistro back.

Coronation Street fans were left stunned earlier this month when it was revealed Andy was alive.
He'd been presumed dead for months, but it turned out he was actually just being held hostage.
And last month it looked as though Phelan was finally going to let Andy free, planning to sneak him into France with a fake passport.
However, they were involved in a van crash and Andy took his chance to run.
But Phelan being Phelan, he came round and chased Andy, before knocking him unconscious again and taking him back to the cellar.
