Debbie’s family tries to sway her plea decision in Coronation Street

Tonight in Weatherfield, Debbie’s loved ones tried to convince her on how she should plead – guilty or not guilty.

Michael visited Ronnie and asked him to open up to him on how he was doing. Ronnie then admitted that Debbie might not take Adam’s advice to plead not guilty.

Ronnie worried that he’d lose her, and he knew that he was going to whether it was through court or the dementia.

Later on, Kevin also visited Debbie. She just started having a go at him about his feud with Carl though although she did accept an apology.

On the evening, Ronnie then confronted Debbie over whether Kevin was right to accuse Carl of framing Debbie for the car accident.

Debbie didn’t believe Kevin though and continued to think that she was the reason Billy was dead.

When Ronnie asked her to plead not guilty, Debbie told him that nobody else would make the decision but her as she valued still having her autonomy in tact.

Debbie reveals her plea in Coronation Street spoilers

Later this week on the cobbles, the heat on Debbie just keeps cranking up – and there’s no escape in sight. Ronnie admits to Michael that he’s bricking it Debbie will ignore everyone and plead guilty, a move that could cost him the woman he loves. The stress is clearly chewing him up.

Things explode at the flat when Kevin barges in, convinced he can knock some sense into Debbie. But before tempers (and furniture) go flying, Ronnie steps in and firmly boots him out, knowing Debbie’s hanging on by a thread.

Then along comes Carl Webster, tightening the vice even further and pushing Debbie to take the fall and plead guilty. Thankfully, Bernie arrives with a much-needed reality check, reminding Debbie that Billy’s death was a tragic accident – and that Billy would never want her destroying herself over it.

With Bernie and Ronnie urging her to fight, Carl barely concealing his panic, and Debbie torn in every direction…  whose voice will she finally listen to?

Jodie settled into life at the Platts' house and was soon introduced to Lily and Bethany. Nick wasn't a huge fan though.

David then went to the hospital to pick up a newly discharged Shona and revealed the news that Jodie was staying with them.

Shona then told David that she was scared where Jodie had been all of these years, knowing that she'd promised to return to her years ago but never did in time.

Holding Jodie's wrist, Shona then spotted that it was badly bruised. Jodie was then forced to reveal that she'd been in an abusive relationship.

Once everyone had gone out of the room, Jodie grabbed her SIM card hidden under the sofa and binned it.... Hmmm...

Megan's pregnancy twist

Megan attended Bertie's birthday party but when Alya asked the little one to pass her bag over to her, he mixed it up with Megan's.

Megan then found out all about Daisy's horrible lies and how she tricked Daniel into thinking he was going to be a dad again.

Unable to watch Megan and Daniel looking cosy together, Will then threatened Daniel from behind the Rovers' bar. Luckily, oblivious Daniel thought it was all down to a detention he'd given him. If only he knew...
