6 Coronation Street spoilers next week
1. Is Joel Deering dead amid sinister discovery?
Having got a voice message from Joel, Dee-Dee Bailey (Channique Sterling-Brown) plays it to DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers), who reckons it could be a suicide note.
Through Joel's phone signal, Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) pinpoints his last whereabouts and finds his car parked on a bridge, with a folded note on the dashboard.
Lisa breaks the news that they are now looking for Joel's body - but has Joel really taken his own life?
Dee-Dee confides in Kit that she phoned the wedding venue and the holiday company, and it seems that Joel has already recouped their deposits.
As the week continues, Dee-Dee confronts Joel's dad, Gus Deering (Chris Garner), at the police station.
She suggests that Joel has gone on the run, and Lisa is forced to step in, telling Dee-Dee to accept that Joel is dead. But is he?
2. Bernie Winter's plan for Paul Foreman's ashes after final journey
With no agreements so far on Paul's funeral, Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) suggests to Bernie Winter (Jane Hazlegrove) that they choose the flowers together.
But this leads to another row, and Bernie tells Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) that she might not be able to give Paul the funeral she would have liked, but she'll find a fitting place to bury his ashes.
As the day of the funeral arrives, an emotional Billy prepares for the ceremony on what would have been his and Paul's first wedding anniversary.
But he's horrified to find Paul's drunken dad Denny Foreman (Danny Cunningham) skulking in the shadows at the church. Billy orders Denny to behave and stay out of sight.
Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce), Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby), Kit, David Platt (Jack P Shepherd), Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) and Dee-Dee carry Paul's coffin, with Gemma Winter-Brown (Dolly-Rose Campbell) and Bernie following them down the aisle.
Billy begins the service, and the following day, the final preparations are made for the memorial rave in Paul's honour.
Bernie asks Todd to bring Paul's ashes so she can give him the best spot on the dance floor, while a hungover Billy is shocked to discover the ashes gone when he calls to collect them.
Bernie thanks the party-goers for giving Paul a night to remember, and reveals her plans to send his ashes into space! How will Billy react?
3. Desperate measures to pay for Bethany Platt's care as Damon Hay reaches out to Sarah Platt
Unable to access her voicemail from Turkey and waiting for news from a loan company, Sarah asks ex-husband Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) to check her messages.
Adam is shocked to hear a voicemail from Sarah's ex-boyfriend Damon - but will Adam tell her about it, or keep quiet?
Meanwhile, in the Turkish hospital, the CEO of the cosmetic surgery company approaches Sarah to offer to pay for hotel accommodation. Sarah demands they pay Bethany's medical bills, but the CEO hands her Bethany's consent form.
Back in Weatherfield, David tells gran Audrey Roberts (Sue Nicholls) that the company is refusing to pay up, and Audrey reckons they should spread the word online to expose the company for what it's really like.
Bethany's gran, Gail Rodwell (Helen Worth), suggests she could sell the house to raise the money. David is horrified, pointing out they'd be homeless.
At the same time, Bethany's boyfriend Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) reveals his plan to use some of son Bertie's trust fund to help her.
Daniel's dad Ken Barlow (William Roache) urges him to think again, but who will be the one to fund Bethany's hospital bills?
Bethany's decision to have liposuction led her to be fitted with a permanent stoma, which she will have to come to terms with in the coming weeks.
