Ed Bailey has taken on a huge job in Coronation Street, renovating the archdeacon's house into a halfway house and is on the hunt for labourers.

He's thrilled to learn his brother Ronnie will soon be in town to offer his expertise, but despite Ed and the boys' enthusiasm, Aggie is clearly less than pleased.

Is he here to stay?

Debbie and Kevin are still trapped in the fridge

Elsewhere, Abi Franklin vows to get to the bottom of Kevin and Debbie Webster's disappearance and soon her investigation leads her to the Bistro.

She's horrified to realise there's people in the restaurant fridge, but will she be able to get them out? And is it already too late?

Simon Barlow is worried for Leanne Battersby when he realises she's been wasting money on a psychic, Paul Forman has a painful admission to make to himself and Tyrone Dobbs is rushed to hospital.

CHECK OUT Coronation Street Monday 15 - Friday 19 February:

Abi is concerned when she learns that Kevin never showed up on the camping trip and goes to the Bistro looking for answers, only to find the signed contract. With the police still no closer to finding them, Abi vows to get to the bottom of it.

Johnny pays a visit to the prison psychatrist, who diagnosis him with Charles Bonnet syndrome. But despite the doc being confident the symptoms will disappear with medication, Johnny admits to Jenny that he doesn't want the hallucinations to stop as he takes comfort from seeing Aidan.

Simon's suspicions are roused when he comes home to find Leanne asleep on the sofa, with Crystal Moon on the sofa. Logging into their phone records, Simon sees Leanne has run up a huge bill calling the premium rate 'psychic'. When he confronts her, Leanne admits she's still finding it hard to cope.

Back in the Bistro, Debbie and Kevin discuss their childhood as they try desperately to stay awake, but soon they both pass out from hypothermia. Meanwhile Faye and Abi have broken in and Abi is horrified to hear sounds from inside the fridge, realising there's someone in there.

Over at number nine, Fiz is furious at Tyrone for allowing Gary's stock to be stolen now that Gary is demanding the money back. As they argue, Tyrone clutches his chest in pain and a frantic Fiz calls an ambulance.

Having finally admitted to himself there's still a spark between Todd and Billy, Paul resigns from his job, telling Todd it's too painful to work with him. Hearing Paul is looking for work, Ed tells him he's working on a conversion at the archdeacon's house and is looking for contractors, if he's interested.

Finally saved from the Bistro fridge, Kevin and Debbie are rushed to hospital and Kevin manages to tell police it was Ray who locked them in. Realising she'd nearly lost him, Abi gets down on one knee at the hospital and proposes.

With his new contract on the archdeacon's house about to start, Ed is thrilled when his high-flying brother Ronnie turns up to lend a hand. As Michael and Ed launch into a joyful reunion, it's clear Aggie is less than pleased at his arrival.

But before all that, here's what's happening this week...

Family man Johnny Connor has been behind bars ever since he confessed to his involvement in a historic murder but this week we see he's struggling to adapt to life behind bars.

When one of Johnny's prison-mates overdoses in his cell, Johnny begins to have hallucinations, thinking he can see his late son Aidan, who died by suicide.

Tyrone is rushed to hospital

Everyone is concerned but when Carla Connor pays a visit to him in prison, he begs her not to say anything.

Meanwhile, Kevin Webster isn't convinced by his sister Debbie's account of how Ray Crosby died and iis convinced she's hiding something, but he soon finds himself more involved than he bargained for.
