Liam Connor will be confronted over Mason Radcliffe's bullying in Coronation Street.
The soap's bullying storyline intensifies in the coming week when Mason threatens young Liam with a knife after his plot to stitch up the teen doesn't work.
Mason has been bullying the other teens in recent months, even forcing Dylan Wilson to hand over his trainers due to a dispute over selling vapes to fellow students for extra cash.

In upcoming scenes, Liam tries to pull a sickie from school so he doesn't have to face Mason but Maria won't hear of it.
What to Read Next
Once he gets to school, Liam questions Dylan about why he's agreed to sell vapes for Mason, only for their teacher Mrs Crawshaw to overhear them.
Mrs Crawshaw immediately orders Dylan to come to her office, while a furious Mason angrily stares at Liam for ruining their vape-selling ploy.
The trouble for Liam continues throughout the week when George Shuttleworth recognises that Liam is being bullied at school.
George invites Liam to have a chat and opens up about his own experiences of being bullied when he was a young boy.

Because George worries that Liam is going to suffer in silence, he speaks to Gary Windass to share his concerns about the other boys picking on Liam.
Will Gary be able to get through to Liam about the bullying?
Earlier in the year, Gary had warned Maria against Liam becoming friends with Mason since he's familiar with the Radcliffe family's bad reputation in Weatherfield.
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
