Coronation Street has confirmed Mick Michaelis' dramatic escape plot in a brand new trailer that teases danger for some of the residents of Weatherfield.
Back in May, local thug Mick was sent to prison for brutally attacking Craig Tinker, who tragically died in hospital after facing serious complications from his injuries.
The soap has now shared a tense trailer confirming Mick's escape from prison in which the desperate criminal goes on the run and attempts to reunite with his kids.
In scenes that will air next week on Monday, 14 July, Mick gets the news that his family is falling apart and orchestrates a prison break in order to do a runner with his children Brody, Joanie and Shanice.
Having little to lose, the desperate killer poses a danger to anyone who gets in the way of his mission to find his kids.

Speaking about Mick's motives, Mick actor Joe Layton said: "He isn't after revenge. This is about him wanting to get his family together and start a new life with them.
"The anger that we saw when he killed Craig has been replaced by desperation and love for his family, but that doesn't make him any less dangerous. Kit is potentially putting his life on the line once more in his attempts to stop Mick."
Mick’s escape episode airs on ITVX and YouTube at 7am on Monday, 14 July and on ITV at 8pm.
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
