Devastating funeral, surprise return and arrest on Coronation Street next week
Coronation Street fans may want to get the tissues next week, as the soap are set to air the final goodbye for PC Craig Tinker - but one resident fails to attend
It's set to be an emotional week in Coronation Street next week as Craig Tinker gets the send off he deserves after being brutally killed. However, things are thrown into chaos when one resident fails to show up.
We'll also see Betsy sneakily visit someone in prison, and a shock arrest for another unlikely resident.
The funeral day starts off in panic when Sarah's concerned to discover that Kit's already left for the day. Lisa is then forced to step in and make a heartfelt speech at the funeral after he's still no where to be seen. But where is Kit?
It's evident he has a lot on his mind as absence comes after he finds Brody injured in an alley with a broken bottle of whisky next to him.
It's also a tough week for Lisa - as Carla confides in Betsy that she's worried for her partner. However, Betsy only adds to the worry as Lisa soon catches her daughter snooping through some of her old files.
If the emotions of the weeks on goings weren't enough for Lisa, she's set for another shock when she learns her daughter has lied about her whereabouts.
Unbeknownst to Lisa, Betsy shows best friend Lauren a picture on her phone of the letter she found containing information on her mum, Becky, and is intent on getting answers.
She then seeks support from Lauren, who accompanies her to the prison visiting room where she prepares to meet Logan, the villainous brother of Mason and Matty Radcliffe. Betsy tells him she's here to find out what really happened to Becky. But will Logan's return come with the answers she needs?
However, it's not long before Steve lets slip to Lisa and Carla that Betsy has lied about her whereabouts and in fact ordered a cab to Highfield Prison. How will Lisa and Carla react?
Betsy's not the only one in trouble - as Maria's shock altercation leaves her in trouble with the police.
During the Platts barbeque, Maria demands Lou empties her pockets after assuming she's stolen money from Shona. But are Maria's accusations correct?
The drama later escalates when Lou is found on the living room floor with a broken coffee table - with Maria standing over her.
The police quickly arrive and tell Maria they're arresting her on suspicion of ABH. But did she do it?
Elsewhere, there could be more upset for Todd after saying goodbye to his mother Eileen last week. He's left gutted when Theo cancels their date - could their relationship be on the rocks?

Emmerdale's big Robert Sugden return falls flat as ratings are revealed – and it's bad news for the soap
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EMMERDALE'S big return for Robert Sugden failed to impress fans - with ratings DROPPING from the previous night. The ITV soap's big comeback for actor Ryan Hawley six years was hoped to bring in a major ratings boost for the cash-strapped channel. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 2 The big return for Emmerdale's Robert Sugden failed to bring in big ratings Credit: ITV 2 Robert crashed his ex-husband Aaron's wedding in the hope of winning him back Credit: ITV However that failed to materialise with his return actually seeing viewers switch off. In fact the episode broadcast the evening before his comeback pulled in just over 3.1m viewers. By Wednesday, the day of Robert's big return - and despite ITV axing the episode from its streaming service ITVX in an effort to get people to watch the TV broadcast - just over 3m tuned in with the show losing viewers. Worst still - the next night that continued Robert's return saw a further 600,000 viewers switch off. In contrast the first edition after Robert was returned to prison, the following Monday's episode rebounded to 3.1m. A source said: 'It's not ideal for such a big moment to not pull in the numbers. 'Bosses expected a great deal of excitement from fans about Robert's return but it doesn't seem to have transferred into actual ratings. 'The so-called Robron coupling was seen as a previous heyday for the show to tap into - but the reality appears to be quite different. 'With all the cuts ITV is having to make, people will be wondering if his return is worth it.' Actor Ryan, who quit the show in 2019, recently revealed he had been struggling for work during his six year absence from the show. Coronation Street and Emmerdale humiliated at British Soap Awards as rival soap wins EIGHT gongs It even led him to move to Brazil with his wife Daisy Prestes de Oliveira and their children for a life away from the spotlight. 'I've got to do things like All Creatures Great and Small, Miss Scarlet, Casualty and Silent Witness,' he told the Mirror. 'I wasn't as busy as I would have liked, but that meant I got to be around my kids a lot, so I was very lucky.' The ITV soaps both suffered a blow at this year's British Soap Awards with Emmerdale winning just two awards and Coronation Street on compared to EastEnders' eight and Hollyoaks' three.

Jeremy Clarkson's girlfriend 'burst into tears' over comment from his daughter
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Lisa Hogan, Jeremy Clarkson's partner and star on Amazon's Clarkson's Farm, became emotional recalling a tender moment related to her family. The 51 year old former model divulged that during Emily Clarkson's podcast 'Shall I Delete That?', the young influencer and author talked about Lisa's daughter with such affection that it moved Lisa to tears. Reflecting on their relationship, she shared, "Emily has this podcast called Shall I Delete That? and she spoke about my daughter in such a sweet way that I burst out crying. They've known each other for nine years, and I think they really care about each other."

During an intimate chat with the Daily Mail, Lisa openly addressed the topic of marriage, stating she cherishes her current standing and identity: "Mrs Clarkson? No, thank you, I like Lisa Hogan. We decided not to have children together." (Image: Getty Images) (Image: Amazon/Everett/REX/Shutterstock) (Image: undefined via Getty Images) She expanded on why they've chosen not to expand their brood, advocating for their contentedness with life as is: "We're at a stage where we are not going to have kids. I'm just happy pootling along. I think because of our age, it's much easier." As the new instalment of Clarkson's Farm hits our screens, fans have been keenly observing Lisa and Jeremy's dynamic, yet it's Jeremy's health that has raised eyebrows, especially after his heart surgery last year where he had two stents fitted. Jeremy Clarkson himself has noticed a decline in his wellbeing throughout the latest series. Chatting with The Sun, he remarked: "You can see me becoming more and more ill as the days go on, because I just lose my sense of humour, lose my ability to stay calm. "I get in a proper old panic. I didn't know at the time. I knew I wasn't being me. Because if you don't sleep, it very quickly has an effect." These revelations follow Lisa's own disclosure about managing conversations with Jeremy, as she told the Mail on Sunday. She divulged her tactic for uninterrupted dialogue: "I've worked out that when he's wearing a mic, he can't interrupt me. So that's when I go for it." Lisa further shared her strategy for avoiding disputes with him, stating: "I'm more conniving than that. Why argue with someone like Jeremy? He's so eloquent. I have to be a bit more... nimble. I like the long-term diplomatic approach." Additionally, Lisa offered a glimpse into Jeremy's off-camera persona, revealing to the publication: "He's always incredibly inquisitive. His mind is always on the move. He'll come in fizzing with energy about the smallest thing. I like that."
