Coronation Street, Monday 31October
Fiz awaits sentencing for the murder of Colin Fishwick. Fiz is in turmoil over John but as she heads to court for sentencing she clings to hope that John’s confession will have changed things. Her optimism is buoyed by Chesney, as the police have called at the house and found the murder weapons (the hammer & handbag) which John described. In court her barrister makes her case regarding the new evidence and argues it renders Fiz’s conviction unsafe. Will the judge agree?

Chris tests Cheryl’s feelings for him. When a guilty Cheryl tells Chris she’s not sure what she wants anymore he arranges to move into Jason’s flat. Coming home to this Lloyd can’t hide his relief but Chery’s head is left in a mess.

Fiz makes plans. Fiz is stunned by her latest change in circumstance and is forced to make plans for the future. Has she been sent down for life or will she be returning to the street? Back at the pub the residents have mixed feelings to the news and as row breaks out the Websters are right at the heart of it.

Carla plays Frank at his own game. Getting straight down to business Carla betters Frank’s offer and gets the client to sign the contract on the spot. How will Frank react to her small victory?

The wind taken from her sails Cheryl admits she’s falling back in love with Chris but is she prepared to break Lloyd’s heart?

Elsewhere Julie’s desperate to starts a family with Brian and he’s only too happy to oblige but is there something he‘s keeping from her?

Spring Spoilers for Coronation Street

ITV.com has posted a preview of the upcoming Coronation Street Spring storylines. There looks to be a good mix of comedy and drama coming up, with Sylvia meeting the factory girls, and the Barlow's erotic pottery class adventures!

There's also a small look at the upcoming London special and the following Blackpool special. One thing I'm wondering though, where have I seen the pottery class teacher before?

2011: A fresh start?

At the moment, Corrie seems very Tracy orientated, but I personally think (hope) that they tone her down after New Years Eve as at the moment she is way over the top (it's a bad way to reintroduce a character - thrusting them into the center of the show.) Anyway, here we go, teasers for upcoming storylines in 2011!

• In 2011 we will see the introduction of Sylvie Cropper, who is said to be the new Blanche! (I hope so!)
• Will Gary be able to battle his demons? Or will his demons spell bad news for his family?
• Tommy Duckworth will turn up on the street, once again bringing the Duckworth name back to Coronation Street.
• The street is set to be rebuilt - what will change? Will Dev reopen the Corner Shop? Will Norris decide to stay in the mobile shop buisness (not likely!) will the Joinery reopen?
• Frank Foster will turn up in 2011 as a buisness associate of Carla Connor, I'm hoping he will develop into a Danny Baldwin style character, either say, it will be interesting to have new blood in the factory.
• Speaking of the factory, will John's secrets come to light?
• Finally, how will Claire and the boys leave the street? I've heard whispers that it wont be what we're expecting!
