Coronation Street will air an EXTRA episode this week – here’s why and what time you can watch Corrie on ITV
IT'S the week Coronation Street fans are affectionately calling Super Soap Week after having spent SEVEN DAYS away from their Weatherfield favourites.
The hit ITV soap is back with a bang - promising more drama, chaos and scandal. Here's what to expect.
England went head to head with the Czech Republic and Bulgaria last week as they competed in the Euro 2020 qualifiers, meaning Corrie fans had to endure an entire week without visiting the world’s most famous cobbled street.
But, to make up for that huge loss, this week the soap will air SEVEN explosive episodes, which will see the death of long-term favourite, Sinead Tinker.
David Platt will also have to make one of the most difficult decisions of his life as he comes face to face with rapist Josh Tucker in prison and has the opportunity to attack him with a pair of scissors.
What will he do?
While Daniel leaves wife Sinead with the palliative care nurse, he’s alarmed when he spots Kirk, Beth and Craig in festive jumpers.
As they tell Daniel that they’ve planned an early Christmas for Sinead, he fears that she’s far too poorly for anything like that.
But, having followed Daniel outside and seen Kirk’s efforts with a snow machine, Sinead insists it’s the best idea ever.
Fans will later see a weak Sinead settle down to enjoy her last Christmas lunch with her family and Daniel.
But tensions are high and before long Sinead is telling an over-protective Daniel that he’s not wanted at the celebrations which causes him to storm out.
Daniel collapses in tears outside in the ginnel where he’s soon found by Bethany Platt.
Bethany tries to comfort her friend, and before long, Daniel ends up kissing her.
Stunned and love struck, Bethany reciprocates the kiss as Ken Barlow catches them and furiously tells his son to go home to his dying wife.
Corrie is back this week for its usual double bills - Monday and Wednesday.
There’s also an extra episode at 20.30 on Thursday and an hour long episode on Friday from 19.30.
