CORONATION Street appeared to take advantage of its pushed back timeslot after Amy Barlow was heard swearing in a rare moment.
The Weatherfield resident let her mouth run away with her when discussing her mum Tracy and her latest antics.
This week, the ITV soap has faced further disruption as a result of coverage of the Euros sporting tournament.
It has meant that as in previous weeks, it has been moved out of its regular timeslots in order to air where possible on the ITV schedule.
The latest episode found itself airing in the 9pm post-watershed timeslot in an unusual move.
It saw the writes of the show opt to be more daring when it came to the language used by some of the residents.
In particular, Amy Barlow opted to use a coarse word when sounding off about Tracy.
During a conversation with Leanne, she said: “Do you remember me telling you that my mum was meant to be coming over for this stupid unveiling of her boyfriend’s head?
“Turns out she can’t even be bothered coming which wouldn’t be bad but her and Mary were supposed to be having a meeting with the accountants to sort out the shop.
“Now she has left it to me to sort it!
“And it’s not because she thinks I am capable or be good at it, it is because she can’t be ar**d!”
Leanne butted in to calm Amy down as she got increasingly irate.
The moment left some viewers open-mouthed who were surprised to hear the language leave the waitresses mouth.
In shock, one fan shared a laughing emoji as they penned: “The language on #Corrie.”
Following on from their conversation, Leanne began to introduce Amy to the teachings of The Institute as a way for her to decompress and de-stress.
However, this caused notable concern for Toyah who was left panicked at the thought of Amy being taken in by Rowan and his cronies.
