Coronation Street will see some shocking scenes next week – as one resident collapses.

Amid the huge drama with Roy Cropper’s arrest, things get considerably tougher for him in prison as he awaits his trial, whilst the mystery surrounding Lauren continues to grow as the police are no closer to finding who really attacked – and potentially killed – her.

Elsewhere, Steve looks set to find love again following Tracy’s decision to leave him whilst there is a new arrival in the Paul Foreman storyline, with his mum Bernie hiding a huge secret – but what is she keeping from her kids?

Shock collapse

There is heartbreaking drama next week when Roy Cropper collapses in a shock turn of events. This week, he calls the café to try and speak to Nina, but when Carla is handed the phone, she hangs up and hurries out.

Bernie is clearly hiding something and is worried Denny will reveal all about her past. Paul invites Denny to watch a film in the flat, and Billy reluctantly leaves the pair of them alone. Later, Denny heads out for ice cream, leaving Paul alone in the flat. He sees Gemma and begs her for a chance to meet his grandchildren, leaving him distracted.

Back at the flat, Paul has a coughing fit and is left struggling to breathe. He calls for an ambulance but when he gets through, he drops the phone. Denny returns to the flat and is left stunned when he sees Paul barely conscious. Will Paul be ok?

Elsewhere, it’s clear Bernie is hiding something as she uneasily searches through an old shoebox of letters and photos. leaving Dev perplexed – but what is she looking for and what is she hiding from her children?

Steve’s lucky in love

Steve has turned to dating apps in the hope to find love after splitting from Tracy Barlow. In the cab office, he tells Tim that he’s got three matches after joining the dating app that Abi suggested. There is a lady called Maggie that has caught his eye, but a sexist comment from Kevin leaves Abi frustrated as she fumes over what he said.

Maggie agrees to date in the Bistro for lunch. Is Steve’s luck finally changing – or will this romance end before it begins?
