Sally admits her affair

Gail (Helen worth) is determined to find out what Sally (Sally Whittaker) is hiding. She arranges for them to meet for a drink in the Rovers and quizzes Sally on her relationship with Ian (Philip Bretherton). Rather than trying to deny her affair Sally tells a stunned Gail that what she is doing is for the good of her family and what Kevin (Michael Le Vell) doesn’t know won’t hurt him. Elsewhere, Sally tries to seek reassurance from Kevin that he is happy, but will her guilty conscience get the better of her?

Maria (Samia Ghadie) and Tyrone’s (Alan Halsall) good news isn’t well received by everyone. Liz (Beverley Callard) and Candice (Nikki Sanderson) are shocked and can’t understand Maria’s sudden U-turn. Maria shows off her engagement ring insisting that this is what she wants, but whom is she trying to convince? Vera (Elizabeth Dawn) is worried that Tyrone is setting himself up to get hurt and tells Jack to talk some sense into him. Maria tries to reassure Jack (William Tarmey) and Vera that she has only good intentions towards Tyrone but will they believe her?

Norris (Malcolm Hebden) is getting on everybody’s nerves with his new book. Disappointed in Ken’s (William Roache) reaction to his masterpiece he suggests the formation of a book club. The first meeting of the club is held in the Rovers and proves to be a shambolic affair.

Elsewhere, Jamie (Rupert Hill) and Kirk (Andrew Whyment) hatch a business plan while Frankie (Debra Stephenson) and Leanne (Jane Danson) make an effort to be nice to each other.

Tommy (Thomas Craig) and Angela (Kathryn Hunt) are preparing to celebrate their wedding anniversary while daughter Katy (Lucy Jo Hudson) is struggling to keep her own good news a secret. Just as her parents are preparing to go out for a romantic meal Katy turns up with Martin (Sean Wilson), armed with expensive gifts that they hope will soften the blow. Soon the conversation turns to universities and in a childish strop Katy blurts out that she won’t be going to university because she is pregnant. Tommy appears livid but who will bear the brunt of his frustrations?

Shelley (Sally Lindsay) is still trying to impress Charlie (Bill Ward) by losing weight but reluctantly agrees to help Sunita (Shobna Gulati) out with some taste testing. The girls are having a laugh as a blindfolded Shelley tries out some new food samples that Sunita hopes to sell in the shop. Unexpectedly Charlie returns home and demands to know why Shelley isn’t at the gym. Shocked by his reaction an angry Shelley argues back, how will Charlie take it this time?

Sally (Sally Whittaker) tries to justify her affair with Ian (Philip Bretherton) as being ‘for the good of the family’, despite obvious objections from Gail (Helen Worth). She is annoyed when Gail insinuates that she is almost prostituting herself but then feels unnerved when Rosie (Helen Flanagan) brings Gemma Davenport (Jodi Hamblet) home for tea. Gemma tells Sally that her mum has been crying a lot lately and isn’t herself. Sally, thinking that Justine (Sophie James) has discovered the affair, tackles Ian about it. How much does Justine know?

Disagreements between Roy (David Neilson) and Norris (Malcolm Hebden) are causing a rift amongst the book club members.

Monday 31 January 8.30 - 9pm ITV1

Shelley (Sally Lindsay) is still brooding over her row with Charlie (Bill Ward) but is unnerved when he doesn’t retaliate to her telling him off. He manages to contain his anger until he is out in the street alone before going off to sulk in the Weatherfield Arms. Liz (Beverly Callard) tries her best to wind Charlie up and isn’t surprised to see him leave the pub with a girl, only to return alone soon after. Shelley manages to track Charlie down and is keen to get to the bottom of his strange behaviour towards Sunita (Shobna Gulati) but she isn’t prepared for the explanation he is about to give.

Tommy (Thomas Craig) and Angela (Kathryn Hunt) are struggling to come to terms with Katy’s (Lucy Jo Hudson) pregnancy. They both feel that Katy is too young to have a baby and should have an abortion, but Angela insists that she is not going to listen to them, especially as she seemingly has Martin’s (Sean Wilson) support. Martin, meanwhile, is not happy as he feels forced into backing Katy up despite his own true feelings.

Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) and Sunita are lightheartedly preparing to go head-to-head for the presidency of the Weatherfield Trade Association. Both are sure that they will win and jokingly offer each other the position of first lady by way of consolation. Let battle commence!

And Joshua (Benjamin Bereford) creates a stink in the Peacock household, leaving Fred (John Savident) and Audrey (Sue Nicholls) to clean up the mess!
