Preview of tonight's Coronation Street, Mon 8 April


Monday 8th April

CARLA GETS THE MESSAGE It’s a bad day for Carla as she refuses to visit Aidan’s grave on his birthday, not wanting to bump into Kate. Peter doesn't give up on the idea and collars Johnny to ask him for a favour. Having convinced Carla her family has already visited, Peter guides her towards Aidan’s grave.  Back at the Rovers the Connors raise a glass to Aidan, and Kate is outraged when Peter brings Carla to join them, angrily accusing her of killing Rana. As Kate storms into the back, Carla’s horrified when she receives a message online: “you destroy everything you touch”. Shakily handing her phone to Peter and Michelle, they are aghast to see the sender’s name is Rana!
WILL CHEMMA MAKE THEIR RELATIONSHIP WORK? When Emma announces she’s holding a Mr & Mrs contest at the Rovers, Gemma persuades reluctant Chesney to enter. Chesney is shaken when he steps into the path of a milk float and, faced with the ramifications of his death, resolves to make a will. Gemma insists that she would take on Joseph. Despite Gemma’s offer, Chesney asks Tyrone if he and Fiz will look after Joseph in the event of his death.
GARY IS LEFT HOLDING THE BABY Gary takes charge of minding Harry for the day but when Mary calls on Gary to repair some damaged guttering at No.3 he forms a plan.
ELSEWHERE Instructed by Nick, David gives Natalie a series of menial tasks in the barbers to encourage her to quit. After getting her to clean the toilet, David asks Natalie to count and test all of the shampoo bottles. Sussing what he’s up to, Natalie agrees without complaint. Sinead’s a bag of nerves ahead of her final treatment session. Daniel tries to reassure her but Sinead fears if it hasn’t worked she isn’t strong enough to go through it all over again.

Monday 8th April

CARLA NEEDS TO WATCH HERSELF A row ensues when Peter accuses Kate of sending Carla the message from Rana’s account. As Kate and Imran vehemently deny it the two wonder who sent the message. Johnny confides in Michelle that he fears the message could push Carla over the edge. When Peter finds Carla sitting in Victoria Gardens and leads her home, Carla looks around nervously, certain she’s being watched. Back at No.1 Ken and Peter worry as Carla knocks back wine gazing listlessly into thin air. When Carla receives another message from ‘Rana’ she is completely freaked out.
GEMMA AND CHESNEY QUIZ THEIR RELATIONSHIP Attempting to make amends with Gemma, Chesney promises her he felt Fiz and Tyrone were best placed to take on Joseph and it’s not a matter of her being too irresponsible. Gemma is unconvinced as they head to The Rovers to take part in the Mr & Mrs competition. Tracey blames Steve when they are the first couple to be knocked out of the quiz and argues they are the only genuine Mr&Mrs taking part. When Chesney retorts that he and Gemma don’t need to be married to prove they are committed, Gemma is pleased. However things go quickly downhill when Chesney names ‘irresponsible’ as Gemma’s greatest fault and they lose the quiz.
GARY’S MONEY WOES INTRIGUE SARAH Gary enlists Faye to look after Harry while he does Mary’s guttering. When Sarah ticks off Gary for dumping Harry, Gary lies that Peter’s bribe money all went on paying his workers’ wages so he’s still got to graft wherever he can. Seeing he’s doing his best, Sarah hugs a guilty Gary.
ELSEWHERE As Natalie’s about to head home for the day, Nick produces a fancy dress costume and sends her to hand out leaflets. Wise to his game, Natalie calmly goes. Back at the barbers she informs David she won’t quit as she really wants to learn the trade. What will David do next? Sinead gets emotional as she prepares to go into hospital overnight but Daniel assures her that he and Bertie will be waiting for her when she’s finished treatment.
