Tony’s getting closer to Maria reveals Coronation Street star Gray O’Brien. But just how close will they get? Tony sleeps with Natasha – is he over Carla? “Tony bonks Natasha for comfort.

They’re developing feelings for each other, aren’t they? “There is some feeling creeping in and Tony knows it’s dangerous territory.” What are Tony’s intentions towards Maria? “His intention is not to bed Maria, as Tom suggests to her.
