Coming up on Coronation Street

On Monday at 7:30pm, Lloyd has a hangover and regrets spending the night with Teresa. Meanwhile, Teresa’s walking on air and nips to the corner shop to buy breakfast. Teresa’s proudly telling Darryl about her night when Lloyd drives past in his cab – he’s clearly doing a runner.
Teresa’s gutted but promises she won’t breathe a word particularly to Liz. Liz apologises to Lloyd and tells him she’d like to give their relationship another go. Lloyd confesses to Liz he had a one night stand but doesn’t tell her who with – step in Michelle who unwittingly spills the beans to a horrified Liz. Is this the end for Liz and Lloyd once more?
Tyrone’s upset after Molly’s behaviour recently and accuses her of no longer being interested in him. Molly tries to make light of it and leaves for work, but Tyrone tells a worried Kevin he wants to talk to him about Molly. What’s on Tyrone’s mind?
Leanne returns from the bank feeling despondent. She explains to Peter that although the bank will lend them some money, it’s not nearly enough. She asks him to show her round the old joinery business once more so she can establish if it’s worth continuing with their plans. Meanwhile, news of exactly where Leanne and Peter are planning to open their bar starts to spread and causes concern.
Elsewhere, Luke’s a worried man and Tony accuses him of being a skiver.

At 8:30pm, Liz is furious about Lloyd and Teresa’s one night stand and takes it out on Teresa. Insults and punches fly until Lloyd manages to get himself a bloody nose as he tries to stop them. Michelle throws them out of the pub and the fight spills onto the street where Darryl intervenes and Teresa storms into the cornershop and grabs a bottle of vodka. An outraged Dev tells her she’s fired from her job at the kebab shop.
Meanwhile, Lloyd begs Liz to take him back but she refuses. A devastated Lloyd leaves the pub upset, watched by Teresa whilst Liz cries in the Rovers backyard, realising she’s all alone again.
Peter and Leanne realise they’re going to have drum up some local support if they’re going get their bar off the ground. With even Janice confessing to Leanne that she doesn’t agree with the idea, it looks like it’s going to be an uphill struggle for the would-be bar owners.

Kevin takes Tyrone for a drink and Tyrone confides in Kevin that he thinks Molly’s having an affair. A guilty Kevin assures him he’s imagining it, leaving Tyrone relieved and grateful. Kevin calls in the corner shop and warns Molly of Tyrone’s suspicions and wonders if they should end their affair. How will Molly react?
Helen and Barry arrive to see baby Liam. Helen makes it clear she disapproves of Tony and Maria’s relationship and as they start to talk about the anniversary of Liam’s death, Tony feels distinctly uncomfortable.
Luke’s devastated when he gets a call from his solicitor telling him that his deal with Carla has gone sour – it seems he’s no longer a shareholder in Underworld. What will Luke do now?
On Thursday, soft touch Umed has let Teresa spend the night in the shop, but ushers her out before Dev arrives for work. Teresa’s feeling sorry for Lloyd and she tries to smooth things over with Liz for him, but Liz isn’t interested.
Umed asks Teresa if she’d like a job making curry for the kebab shop, remembering how well her curry went down at the fete. Teresa’s keen but points out she’s homeless and has no kitchen. After finding out how hard she tried to speak to Liz, Lloyd agrees to let Teresa stay one more night in his flat, but makes it clear Teresa’s sleeping on the sofa. Teresa isn’t concerned; it isn’t his body, it’s his kitchen she’s after.
Maria’s feeling suffocated by Helen and Barry’s constant references to Liam and Paul. Tony and Maria are stunned when Helen offers them a family christening gown and shows Maria a photo album she’s made for her and the baby. Tony’s curt with Helen but Maria doesn’t back him up and Tony feels excluded. Tony asks Maria if she’d like him to move out for a couple of nights to give her some breathing space. To his dismay, she agrees and Tony leaves No.7 with his overnight bag. Is this the end for Tony and Maria?
Luke tries but fails to increase his overdraft with the bank. In desperation, he tries to rekindle his relationship with Rosie. Will she fall for his charm and lies?
Kevin’s relieved when Molly meets up with him in the motel, but Molly tells Kevin she’s not sure she can carry on their affair as she hates lying to Tyrone.

On Friday at 7:30pm, Rosie’s spent the night at Luke’s and he asks her if she’d like to move in. Rosie says she’ll think about it, although secretly, she’s delighted. Luke offers Rosie his shares in the factory, pointing out that with her 9% and his 51% she’d be the boss. Rosie’s seriously tempted. Luke’s starting to think he’s finally solved his money problems but it appears time may be running out as he takes a call from Carla.
Tony calls round to No.7. Maria’s shocked at the state of him – it’s clear he’s hung-over and hasn’t slept, and he confesses he thought it was over between them. Maria reassures him that she loves him. Helen, Barry, Michelle and Ryan set off for Liam’s grave to pay their respects on the anniversary of his death. Helen’s annoyed that Maria isn’t going with them and even angrier when she sees her arriving with Tony, just as they’re leaving the cemetery.

As Tony, Maria and baby Liam visit Liam’s grave, Maria tells Tony she feels it’s time to say goodbye to Liam and look to the future instead. Moved by her words, Tony surprises her with a proposal. How will she react?
Lloyd’s impressed when he discovers Teresa’s tidied up after herself and left a thank you note, but he cringes when Liz walks into the cab office to find them sharing a joke. Meanwhile, Teresa’s curry goes down a storm at the kebab shop, but Dev is not impressed when he catches her handing over another batch to Umed.

At 8:30pm, Tony and Maria know it’s going to be a difficult day for everyone, and Helen’s not impressed when Maria insists Tony joins them for a family meal. After a difficult and emotional dinner, Maria and Tony manage to get some time alone when Helen and Barry decide to nip to the pub.

Tony opens a bottle of champagne to celebrate their engagement, but as a loved up Tony and Maria discuss their future together, the mood is broken when Helen and Barry arrive back. Helen demands to know why they’re drinking champagne on the anniversary of her son’s death. The Connors are shocked as Maria tells them that she and Tony have just got engaged.

Dev’s furious with Umed for getting involved with Teresa Morton and calls him a fantasist. An emotional Umed breaks down and admits to Dev the reason he left Mumbai is because he’d run up huge gambling debts, and be believes the time has come for him to return to sort out the mess.
Leanne gets a call from Carla wanting to know if it’s true that Tony and Maria are now an item. Leanne confirms it and Janice is intrigued to know why Carla’s suddenly so interested in Tony.
