5 Coronation Street spoilers next week

1. Desperate Gemma Winter-Brown arrested for stealing kids' shoes

Kit stands against a cell wall with arms crossed as sheepish Gemma sits on the bed in Coronation Street — Gemma has no idea detective Kit is her half-brother. ITV

Gemma's day goes from bad to worse when young daughter Carys desperately needs new shoes and she gets a £70 parking fine in the post.

Gemma takes Carys to the shoe shop to get her feet measured, but the shoes are too expensive at £45 and Gemma is gutted.

While the staff are distracted, Gemma grabs Carys's hand and they flee without paying! Bernie Winter (Jane Hazlegrove) asks how Gemma afforded the shoes, but will Gemma admit she stole them?

Her husband Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) serves up kebabs for son Joseph's (William Flanagan) thrilled schoolmates, but Gemma gets a shock when she sees one of the dads who has come to collect his child.

Kit is later startled to see Gemma being brought into the station, having been arrested for stealing the shoes.

Bernie begs Kit to secure Gemma's release, so Kit heads to the shoe shop and asks the owner, Bruce, if he will drop the charges against Gemma. Gemma is intrigued as to why Kit wants to help her, and introduces him to Ches and the kids.

At their house, Kit gets a surprising call from his dad, but what has happened? And will Kit reveal his identity to Gemma?

But when Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney) lets slip that Joel and Dee-Dee are engaged, Anthea and Gus are taken aback.

Meanwhile, Sabrina Adetiba's (Luana Santos) friend says that Joel is clearly a creep and she should steer well clear.

Kevin confides in Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) that Stefan has agreed to pay to take down the deep fake videos of Abi (Sally Carman-Duttine).

But later, Stefan tells Kev that the deal is off, because he's not willing to pay £60k per year to remove the videos. How will an angry Kevin react?

As the week continues, Abi tells Kev that she needs to get away for a few days, so she's going to stay with her twins and their adoptive mother Lynsey.

Sally tells Tim that she's off to buy a new outfit, and Steve hears, growing more convinced than ever that Tim's organising a party.

But he's gutted when Amy reveals mum Tracy (Kate Ford) has cancelled her visit and is staying in Spain. With Steve's plans to win Tracy back up in smoke, he later quizzes Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney), Kevin and Tyrone about his surprise party.
