Dylan Wilson has made a crucial confession in Coronation Street's bullying storyline.
The teen finally turned the tables on bully Mason Radcliffe in Friday's (March 8) episode, after being made to take the rap from police over bullying Liam Connor Jr.
Mason had stitched up Dylan to be caught by police officer Craig Tinker with the zombie knife used to threaten Liam weeks ago.

In Friday's (March 8) episode, Dee Dee Bailey was working with Dylan and his dad Sean about how the boy would plead to his CPS charges.
Dylan had an emotional encounter with Liam, where his former friend revealed how much torment the bullying had caused him.
"It was really bad," Liam recalled. "I wanted to kill myself… I just wanted it to end."
Dylan was shaken to the core by his former friend's words, later telling Sean that, while he wasn't the ring leader, he contributed to Liam's pain.
The teen decided he was going to plead guilty in order to take responsibility for what he'd done. Later, Dylan had a run-in with Mason where the bully thanked him for pleading guilty and promised he'd "owe" him a favour.

"I told them about the hit-and-run," Dylan then revealed to a horrified Mason. "I'm not a grass. I did it because it was the right thing to do."
The boys had no idea that Gary Windass was listening in to their conversation from a few metres away and later told Sean and Eileen what he'd heard.
Because Dylan hid the knife in Eileen's garden, she told Sean he'd need to find someplace else to live.
"I'm really sorry, Sean," she told him.
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
