Coronation Street: Mason’s family didn’t turn up to court – and fans are baffled

Mason only had his mate to support him

Yesterday’s episode of Coronation Street (Monday, April 8), saw Mason have his day in court as Dylan and Liam stood up against him.

Dylan initially lied for Mason but then decided to backtrack and tell the truth about his knife possession.

But, as none of Mason’s family showed up for him in court, fans have been left rather confused.

Coronation Street: Mason went to court

Last night on the cobbles, Mason attended court as Liam and Dylan testified against him.

Through a video link, Liam explained how Mason had threatened him with a knife during his bullying ordeal.

Dylan then stood up and lied that Mason didn’t have a knife. However, he then looked at Sean and ignored Mason’s threats, deciding to tell the truth.

Mason failed to defend himself which didn’t help his case.

After some deliberation, the jury found Mason guilty and revealed that he would be sentenced to time in prison.

Liam, Gary and Maria all breathed a sigh of relief as Mason finally got the punishment he deserved.

Coronation Street fans confused over Mason court scenes

Mason often makes out that he comes from a bad background, with a big family that could come for Liam, Dylan and their families.

However, last night, fans of the soap have been left wondering where Mason’s family was in his hour of need. No-one turned up in court to support Mason apart from one of his mates.

One fan commented: “How come the only person supporting Mason in court was a mate and not his family? Or are they all in jail too?”

Another person shared: “Clearly Mason’s giant family couldn’t fit in the court room. Unless they’re all in prison.”

A third Coronation Street viewer wondered: “Where was Mason’s family?”

A final person questioned: “Why wasn’t Mason’s family at the trial?”
