Coronation Street's Dev Alahan faces a heartbreaking task in tonight's double bill (April 5) as he must tell Aadi and Asha that their mother has passed away.
As a new day dawns on the cobbles, Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) still hasn't spoken to the kids about Sunita's death, but he knows that he'll have to break the news soon to prevent them finding out from someone else.
When the right moment finally presents itself, Dev broaches the subject as gently as possible with the twins, who aren't able to fully understand the finality of the tragic situation.
Amid the heartache, Dev has the support of neighbours and friends like Sophie, Jenna, Steve and Marcus. But with gossip still rife about the Rovers fire, how will Dev cope?
