Corrie's Big Week: Death, coma, lust and a Kylie online episode

Coronation Street are trumpeting their "Big Week" next week which is another way of saying that us Corrie fans are having our soap schedule messed up because of another ITV moneyspinner, Britain's Got the Idol Factor, or summat.

Anyway, in the "Big Week" the schedule will change and Corrie will be on every night - check out the revised schedule here. 

The storylines are going to be dramatic, that's for sure, with Tina ending up in th'ospital after being whacked by Terry Duckworth.  This week's Inside Soap magazine reveals that Terry and Tina end up arguing which turns into a scuffle, Terry pushes Tina over and she whacks her head on the floor.  Actress Michelle Keegan, who plays Tina, tells the mag that she did all her own stunts and ended up covered in bruises.

Anyway, Terry then panics and leaves Tina lying in a pool of blood and when he finds Tommy he lies and says he found Tina like that and blames Rick the nasty, evil loan shark.  Tina's rushed to hospital and put in intensive care.  Will the sexiest woman in soap survive?  I'll give you three guesses.

Elswhere in the "Big Week", Lesley dies while being looked after by Eileen, Karl and Sunita start sniffing around each other (or as I like to call them by their new celebrity name, Snarkita).

And there'll be an exclusive online mini-episode at itv.com with David Platt finding out where wife Kylie's really been hiding!  Oo-er!

You can watch the "Big Week" TV trailer here on the official Coronation Street website.
