Coronation Street Spoilers: Sally Webster ALONE in court
Coming up in Coronation Street, Sally's pre-trail hearing arrives and it all goes pear shaped
Author: Jack MallinsonPublished 14th Sep 2018 Last updated 14th Sep 2018
Across the cobbles, last week's Coronation Street saw Imran Habeed hardly believing how lucky he was. Two sisters, both interested in dating him - he was as happy as Larry. This week, the harsh reality of the world comes crashing down on him as Leanne and Toyah Battersby finally find out what he's been up to - and make sure that they get their revenge on him.
Sally Webster is involved in that, but also has more than her fair share of drama of her own to contend with. The legal system is a complicated beast, and she finds out why lawyers spend so much time learning their craft as she attempts to go it alone in the courtroom.
Across the cobbles, Steve McDonald's got his dancing shoes on, but it looks as if he's got two left feet. His wedding plans are going from bad to worse, it seems.
Coronation Street spoilers Monday 17 - Friday 21 September
Imran's double date
Toyah and Leanne both arrange a night out with Imran, unaware that he's seeing them both. Adam knows that Imran should make a decision about the sisters, so does the sensible thing and advises him to make a pros and cons list of the women to help him decide. What, you are wondering, could possibly go wrong with such a foolproof plan?
Coronation Street Spoilers: Sally Webster ALONE in court
2 of 15
Honest work for Ronan's son
Ronan, Drug Dealer Ronan, corners Adam and explains that his son is coming out of Youth Offenders soon and he needs to find a job. Now when a drug dealer corners you like that you usually do what he wants, so Adam manages to persuade Michelle to give Ronan's son, Cormac, a job washing up at the Bistro. What could go wrong?
Imran's double date
Toyah and Leanne both arrange a night out with Imran, unaware that he's seeing them both. Adam knows that Imran should make a decision about the sisters, so does the sensible thing and advises him to make a pros and cons list of the women to help him decide. What, you are wondering, could possibly go wrong with such a foolproof plan?
Somehow, SOMEHOW, Imran gets caught out
Sally finds a list of names that Imran dropped in the cafe (seriously, Imran and his bloody lists (doesn't he know about iPhone notes)) so she goes to the solicitors' office to return it. There, she overhears Adam advising Imran that he can't keep sleeping with both sisters, and Imran saying he's lost a list of witnesses for Duncan's case - the list Sally happened to find earlier. What is she to do with her new information? Enter: Power Sally. She decides to tell the sisters the truth and they teach Imran a lesson by going along with it. They all go for lunch and the champagne flows as the sisters promise Imran the night of his life - the big fool.
Imran comes back to Earth
When the shoe is on the other foot and Imran finds a pros and cons list about him (made by Leanne and Toyah), he takes his anger out on Leanne and fires her. This, though, doesn't last long, as Adam tells Imran to give Leanne her job back because the filing system is in a state. Imran, Toyah and Leanne meet in the bistro, with the sisters forcing Imran to apologise for what he did. But, of course, it isn't all plain sailing as Leanne can't help but notice the way that Toyah looks at Imran - perhaps there are feelings there still...
Sally's discovery
Nervous for her pretrial hearing, Sally goes in search of Sophie at no.13, but walks in on her and Paula together. She calls one of the witnesses on Imran's list that she found earlier. Paula tells her that she can get in serious trouble for it, and Sally promptly sacks her for chiming in. Just to put the cherry on the cake, she also tells Sophie that she doesn't want her in court either. Tim, naturally, is very worried.
Solo Sally in court
Sally goes to court with only a very worried Tim and Gina to support her. Imran can't help but see the funny side of Sally representing herself in court, and promptly tells the judge that she harassed a witness. Imran the big snitch.
Terrible Tim
Later, realising the error in her ways, Sally phones Sophie, asking her to reinstate Paula. Tim has gone from worried to angry, first at Sophie, then at Imran when he learns that he threatened Sally over exposing his affair with Toyah and Leanne.
Gina offers support to Tim
Sally is upset when Tim tells her of his argument with Imran. Back at home, Gina comforts Tim and reassures him that he was just looking out of his wife, doing nothing wrong. Poor old Tim.

Hannah's collapse could be coming sooner rather than later
Later, Hannah pretends to collapse after hearing that Liz still has money from her sale of the Rovers. Liz asks Hannah to move in with her following this, so that the can look after her. Tracy isn't so convinced. Jim questions whether of not he and Hannah are actually going to go through with their play, and if they're going too far. Hannah asks if Jim still has feelings for Liz, sensing his uncertainty about their evil rouse.
Poor Simon
Tyler and his friends steal Simon's bag and rip up his homework. Peter seeks out and confronts Vicky, Tyler's mum, but she makes it clear that she is blaming Simon for her son being in prison. Uh oh. It gets worse still for Peter when he find's that Carla has given Vicky a job at the factory.
Vicky wins this round
Despite Peter's protests, Carla keeps Vicky on in her job when Beth and Kirk both call in sick. Looks like she's here to stay, Peter.

He tells Vicky that she can work at the factory if she calls off Tyler and his mates. Carla is confused by his sudden change of heart, but at least he isn't on the hunt for her to get the sack anymore. But: with things at the factory no better, Peter looks too buying the old snooker hall on Victoria Road.
Dancing queen
Peter shows Steve and Tracy an article about a castle that they booked for their wedding being destroyed in a fire. Steve tries his hardest to act disappointed - you can image how that goes. Later, Steve is left embarrassed when Abi and Mary make fun of him at a wedding dance class. When he storms out Abi offers to help him. See, who said storming out doesn't ever get you anywhere?
Evil Evelyn at it again
Eevlyn's proving to be quite the difficult housemate. When taking part in the Rovers quiz she upsets her team by getting the tie break question wrong. To be fair to the old girl, we've all been there. Liz thinks it may be a good idea for her to live somewhere else, but Tyrone has other ideas.
