A horrified Angela discovers Katy's terrible crime

In tonight’s thrilling episode of Coronation Street Katy (Lucy Jo Hudson) stands over her bleeding father as Angela runs over to him. Her distraught mother (Kathryn Hunt) screams for Tommy (Tom Craig) to wake up, while a shaking Katy tells him its about time he got a taste of his own medicine. As Tommy dies in his wife’s arms, Katy realises what she has done and sinks to her knees, totally paralysed with fear. Angela cannot believe what has happened and is in turmoil as to what to do next. Does she call the police and get Katy arrested, or will she rally behind Katy and attempt to cover her crime?

Deirdre (Anne Kirkbride) waits at the hospital to see if Ray (Neville Buswell) is going to be all right, despite Tracy (Kate Ford) telling her mother she is wasting her time. During their conversation Ray admits to his ex-wife that he isn’t back to cause any trouble for the Barlows. He wants to make amends with Tracy, as he is a dying man.

Danny Baldwin (Bradley Walsh) tells Warren (Danny Young) that his poor scoring on the pitch is down to his off-the-pitch performances with ‘Randy Candy’. Warren worries that Candice (Nikki Sanderson) will dump him, but after some moral boosting from Danny, both Warren and Jamie (Rupert Hill) bet they could outlast each other’s chastity vows!
