It's set to be the winter of discontent in Weatherfield this year. Steve's (Simon Gregson) resigned himself to the fact he's not meant to be with Michelle (Kym Marsh) and so embarks on a bad boyfriend routine, hoping that she'll dump him before he's forced to carry out the dreaded deed. Steve's new love, however, isn't going to hang around for him forever.
Molly (Vicky Binns) and Tyrone's (Alan Halsall) relationship is also pushed to its limit as Tyrone continues to lie to his fiancée as to his whereabouts. He's out selling dodgy goods with Auntie Pam (Kate Anthony), but Molly gets the wrong end of the stick and makes a drastic decision which she could soon be regretting.
Peter Barlow's (Chris Gascoyne) another focus on the Cobbles this Christmas as he struggles to come to terms with fatherhood. Ken's (William Roache) disappointed that Peter is more interested in alcohol and Leanne (Jane Danson) than bringing up his son Simon (Alex Bain). Old tensions within the family soon begin to emerge and it takes a Christmas catastrophe to shock Peter into changing his ways.
Tony Gordon's (Gray O'Brien) in trouble, too, as a ghost from his past resurfaces in the form of Jed Stone (Kenneth Cope). Maria (Samia Smith) is slowly beginning to unravel his scheming and murdering ways, but when her mental state is called into question, it'll be touch and go as to whether anyone will believe her before another body increases Tony's murder count to two.
Elsewhere on the Street, Liz (Bev Callard) realises that a potential life partner has been right under her nose; Leanne picks a boyfriend with plenty of baggage; Rita (Barbara Knox) and Norris find themselves some Christmas love, albeit not together; there looks to be a reconciliation on the cards for Dev (Jimmi Karkishi); and Eileen's (Sue Cleaver) father Colin puts in an appearance.
