David and Kylie Platt are together again in adorable Coronation Street reunion photo

But after a police officer calls at the house, Mary is upset to learn that Angie has filled them in on Jude's duplicitous background, worried they won't take his disappearance seriously.

Still embroiled in his murderous mess, Ali convinces Moira to let him into the surgery to collect something, but leaves with anti-depressants.

Afterwards, he heads over to the bistro, where he has far too much to drink and starts to flirt with Ryan's girlfriend Bethany.

Michelle and Robert arrive back to the bistro to find the two brother's at each other's throats. Robert steps in to break up the fight, and Ryan is shocked by what he has to say.

Having stormed out of the restaurant following the fight, Michelle finds Ali back at the flat alone. Angrily, he tells her to leave him alone, before heading back out into the night.

With Ali in the state he's in, Michelle is worried. Having left the flat, Ali starts a fight with two burley biker types outside the tattoo shop. Ryan turns up and scares them off, but not before his brother has taken a good beating.

Michelle is distraught when she hears about his injuries. Robert is there to comfort her, and once again asks her about having a child of their own.

Meanwhile, Emma and Chesney arrange to go for a drink together. When his crush Gemma invites herself along, Chesney is thrilled – until she drops the bomb that new boyfriend Spike will be joining them.

Gina is still looking for love online, but her dates are going from bad to worse. When she finds herself on the other side of town with a date only interested in one thing, she calls Tim for help.

Tim speeds across town in his taxi, where he finds Gina alone on the street. She tells him that she thought her date was chasing her – it was a false alarm.

Tim tries to explain the situation to a nearby police officer, who had witnessed the commotion from his car.

But the officer smells alcohol on Tim's breath, and he is arrested on suspicion of drink driving. When lawyer Paula finds out that the judge on the case is the same one Sophie insulted, she is concerned.

Oblivious to the arrest, Sally stands up in court for the first day of her trial and is upset to see that neither Tim or Gina are there. They eventually arrive just before proceedings are about to start.

Duncan takes to the stand. An accomplished conman, he gives a moving account of how he fell in love with Sally and was coerced into defrauding the council, painting himself as an innocent victim. Who will the court believe?

Aware that Duncan is a skilled manipulator, Paula and Sophie are desperate to find Sally an alibi. To stall the case, Sophie tells her mum to pretend to be ill, while she searches for CCTV footage from the hospital the night of her birthday.

Despite her initial reservations, Sally's new cell mate Abi Franklin convinces her to fake an illness. The next day, proceedings have to be put on hold when the court hears Sally is in hospital.

Shocked by the lengths her sister has gone to to evade court, Gina starts having doubts and visits Duncan for more information. He spins her an elaborate lie, and she believes every word of it.

After their date, Chesney finally admits to Emma that despite his mission to make Gemma jealous, it's her he really fancies. Emma is thrilled, but his plan is already working and Gemma is seething.

When the Pizza shop gets broken into and Spike gets arrested, Gemma lashes out at Chesney and accuses him of shopping Spike to the police.

When it turns out that it was the shop owner, and not Chesney, who reported Spike, Gemma admits that she's made a mistake and asks him out for lunch. Feeling threatened, Emma joins them, and asks Gemma if she really has feelings for Chesney.

Following the revelation at the end of last week that Nick is in fact married to newcomer Elsa, Leanna is furious and doesn't want to hear any more from him.

And now that everything is out in the open, Nick tells Carla the deal is off... until Elsa turns up to the Underworld offices, and says Nick defrauded her of £40,000 to buy into the factory in the first place!

Carla suggests to Elsa that as she actually owns Nick's share of Underworld they should go into business together. Elsa confronts an embarrassed Leanne who tells her she didn't know Nick was married.

Meanwhile, Phil has told Brian that it's his job to take over the school Christmas production – a mash up between Lord of the Rings and Cinderella. In a barely disguised threat, Phil implies the show must be spectacular if Brian wants to keep his job.

Brian proudly presents Phil with his plans for Lord of the Rings meets Cinderella. But he's disappointed when Phil tells him there's been a change of plan and he'll have to come up with some new ideas.

A crestfallen Brian is comforted by Cathy, who worries that Phil is putting him under too much pressure at work.

Mary thinks they should report Jude as missing to the police, as they haven't heard from him for weeks. Angie is exasperated – Mary is fussing over nothing.

But after a police officer calls at the house, Mary is upset to learn that Angie has filled them in on Jude's duplicitous background, worried they won't take his disappearance seriously.
