Corrie Spoilers 1st - 5th January 2018

Coronation Street's Chesney Brown could be exposed as a liar in the New Year when Daniel Osbourne decides to get his revenge.

Chesney (Sam Aston) took his feud with Daniel to shocking new levels this week by deliberately hitting himself with a brick, wanting to frame his rival for assaulting him.

Although Chesney thinks he's now managed to get Daniel off his back once and for all, it seems that his enemy may just be biding his time before retaliating.


As Chesney and Sinead Tinker prepare for their hen and stag parties, Daniel is intrigued to spot that The Rovers' CCTV is hooked up to Peter Barlow's laptop and offers a bird's eye view of the ginnel.

Beth has produced a special DVD full of clips showing Sinead's childhood for the hen party, but when Robert Preston hands it to Daniel to play out at the Bistro, he forms a clever plan to get his revenge.

With the stag party under way at the pub, Daniel corners Chesney in the Rovers' back yard and leads him to believe that he's swapped Beth's DVD for the CCTV footage showing their argument.

Horrified that he's about to be exposed, Chesney rushes over to the Bistro and knocks Beth to the ground in a desperate bid to stop the video from being played.

Sinead is appalled as Beth is left injured on the floor, while Tracy takes things further by pressing play on the DVD. Is Chesney's deception about to be exposed?

Coronation Street 2018 spoilers: Pat Phelan kills Luke Britton as he claims his next victim?

The end could be nigh for Luke Britton as he makes the mistake of confronting Pat Phelan over Andy Carver’s death in Coronation Street – at the mill where Andy was shot!

After spotting the wire model in the cab office, Luke confronts Eileen who admits that she found it in the house that Phelan was working on which, as viewers know, was where Andy was held hostage.

Luke starts to doubt the yarn spun by Phelan and Andy’s supposed mate Matt and so gets in touch with him, arranging to meet him in a bar. When Luke arrives early, he sees Matt getting a pep talk from Phelan and his suspicions mount.

He confronts Matt after Phelan has left and gets to the truth at last – he doesn’t know where Andy is and Phelan created the story of Andy backpacking in Belize.

Determined to find out where Andy is, Luke finds out that Phelan is at the mill development site and races to have a showdown with him, firing questions that Phelan is unable to answer, having been caught off guard.

As Luke makes it clear that he is going to the police, Phelan strikes him over the head with a rock and the men end up in an intense fight.

Luke hits out at Phelan, punching him to the ground and fleeing into his car. As he drives off, Phelan pursues him, giving chase in his van.

Can Luke outrun the killer or will Phelan catch up with his prey and make him his next victim?

One to watch: Friday 5th January at 8:30pm on ITV.

Coronation Street's Rana Nazir vows to dump her husband Zeedan as her lies catch up with her in the New Year.

Rana (Bhavna Limbachia) makes the big promise to her secret lover Kate Connor after realising that she can't keep stringing Zeedan along.

Although Rana made her marriage to Zeedan official with a registry office ceremony a few weeks ago, she's since started an affair with Kate.

Scenes airing in the first week of January see the pressure increase for Rana when Luke Britton mentions her "pregnancy" in front of Zeedan (Qasim Akhtar).

Rana had previously lied to Luke by claiming that she was expecting Zeedan's baby, wanting to make sure he didn't expose her secret relationship with Kate.

A wrong-footed Rana can't believe it when Zeedan then confronts her and demands to know whether it's true that she's pregnant.

With everything getting on top of her, Rana tells Kate that she can't live with the lies anymore and is going to tell Zeedan that she's leaving him.

Kate is delighted by Rana's grand promises, but when Zeedan starts excitedly making plans for his future with Rana, can she really go through with breaking his heart?

She was not married to Nick nor Peter for long enough to get any alimony, I would think ..

please get rid of Sinead, Daniel, Carla, Seb I am sooooooooooooo bored with these dull plots, how many more times am i going to fall asleep when Corri is on!!!!

So chesney got daniel fired by pretending to have food poisoning then hit himself with a brick to frame him. But according Tyrone chesney is the victim and Daniel is the bully? Alright then

That's why people out their do not know what is right and wrong anymore!

classic case of inventing a story to make use of the characters, Sinead and DAniel and sorry even Ches are as empty as a christmas stocking on New Year!!

both are victims with that airhead sinead :p

I cannot understand how it is so helpful for the prints on the gun to be Seb's. He has no motive for the double murder (or is that to come?) Surely any police officer will investigate further especially when Seb claims the gun is Phelan's. Seems rather like clutching at straws.

Yeah, but these are soap police, and in Weatherfield the boys in blue tend to take Phelan's word over hard evidence!

Indeed. They don't even bother to look for any evidence. If Phelan says something that's good enough for them, no need to check.

Theory: phelan kills luke and those racist guys get the blame

ah jack balls phelan killing all the wrong ones for me

Not to harp on but leather gloves have an uneven surface, you can match the whirls and swirls of the leather to the prints on a gun, it is as individual as a finger print. I am basing this on CSI but it seems logical as leather is skin. That would be a good twist if it is not widely known!

It's depressing how much Pat is getting away with now. It's an over the top storyline even by the usual standards and I can't wait for it to end - that's if anyone's left alive to work out what he's doing...
