Nick has been left vulnerable following a shock drug arrest for Damon in Coronation Street.

A series of events were set in motion during Wednesday's (February 8) episode that led to Damon finally being arrested on Class A drug charges following all of his criminal activity.

After finding out two arrests had been made over the ordeal with the masked gunman, Nick demanded Damon pick up his drugs or else there would be "nothing to collect".

Damon arrived to collect the gear, warning Nick he'd have to keep using the bistro to run drugs until he found another venue. Damon tried to make up for Sam's trauma by bringing him deluxe headphones.

However, when Damon went to leave, Craig confronted him at his SUV and arrested him for supplying a Class A drug. As a worried Nick watched from the balcony above, Damon stared back in fury.

When Nick tried breaking the news to young Sam, his son defended Damon as being "nothing like Harvey". Nick finally snapped as he warned Sam that Damon and Harvey were both dangerous.

"Damon is Harvey's brother," Nick finally confessed.

A dejected Sam rushed off to his room in a rage over the lies, while Leanne rolled her eyes over the way Nick had mishandled the situation.

The situation grew tenser when Sam finally came out of his room to ask Nick and Leanne about how long they'd known about Damon and Harvey's relationship.

Leanne admitted she'd only discovered the secret a few days earlier, whereas Nick had to confess to his son that he'd been hiding the truth for much longer.

Sam said he wanted the headphones from Damon to be dropped at a charity shop and for Nick to move out while he processes the lies.

Can Nick make things right?
