Monday (1)Peter explains to Ken how desperate Toyah is for a baby and persuades him to lend him the money for a consultation at a private fertility clinic. When Peter announces that he's booked an appointment for this afternoon, Toyah is thrilled.

However, when Toyah witnesses Leanne forgiving Eva for her part in keeping Toyah and Peter's relationship a secret, she gets jealous and follows Leanne into the Victoria Court lift. Once there, she rails at Leanne for her jibe about her not being a mum.

Suddenly the lift judders to a halt. Having discovered the alarm isn't working and there's no phone signal, the girls start to panic - especially when Leanne's waters break.

Meanwhile, Steve tells Robert that Michelle confessed to trying to kiss him, but she deeply regrets it and he hopes they can remains friends. Will Robert mask his hurt? Steve and Michelle then head off to the seaside with Ruairi's ashes.

Elsewhere, after spending the night at Nathan's, Bethany returns home and lies to Sarah and Gary - telling them that someone nicked her phone and she crashed on Mel's sofa. But when Rana and Kate enquire after Bethany and reveal that they found her drunk in town before heading off with some bloke who she knew, Sarah is fuming.

Finally, Brian assures Roy that he'll look for alternative lodgings when they continue to rub each other up the wrong way.

As Leanne's contractions increase, she cries out in pain and grips Toyah's hand. Rana also shouts up to Leanne from the lobby, offering her birthing advice.

The ambulance arrives at Victoria Court, as do a panicked Nick and Eva, but will they be able to get into the lift to help Leanne before her baby is born? And will the dramatic events of the day bring about a reconciliation between the sisters?

Meanwhile, Sarah confronts Bethany, who is clearly under pressure and admits that she stayed at Nathan's flat. Bethany explains that he's her boyfriend and he rescued her when she collapsed. When Sarah wants to know if they've had sex, Bethany assures her they haven't, but is she telling the truth?

As their row escalates, Sarah bans Bethany from seeing Nathan again. Will Bethany accept this, or has Nathan got her just where he wants her?

Back at home, the Platts visit the new baby. Peter and Toyah discover they both know that Nick is not the baby's father and it must be very difficult for him.

Later, alone at last with their new baby, Leanne breaks the news to Nick that she doesn't want his name on Oliver's birth certificate as it would seem wrong. How will Nick react to this?

Meanwhile, when Michelle finds out Leanne has had the baby, she is emotional but genuinely pleased for her and insists they visit.

Nick is thrilled, but as they're about to leave, David stops them and explains that the Register Office will have to wait as Gail has organised a party in the Bistro to celebrate the birth of their baby.

As the Platts gather in the bistro, Michelle and Steve are forced to watch the party from their table, with both struggling to mask their conflicting emotions.

Meanwhile, Jenny resolves to try to win Richard Drake round, but Johnny warns her she's wasting her time and could damage relations permanently. Jenny scrolls through some photos from the Gazette.

Over on Coronation Street, Eva Price makes a decision that leaves Aidan Connor squirming after she visits Maria in prison.

When Eva (Catherine Tyldesley) heads to the jail to see Maria, she insists on taking Liam with her – convinced that it'll do mother and son the world of good as they're both clearly missing each other.

Eva's bold decision pays off as Maria (Samia Longchambon) relishes her reunion with Liam after two months behind bars, but there's another surprise when talk turns to living arrangements.

As Liam admits that he'd rather be living with Eva and Aidan than Kirk, Maria reluctantly gives her blessing for it to happen – even though she's still harbouring some bitter resentment towards Aidan after he abandoned her in her time of need.

Later, Aidan (Shayne Ward) can't believe his eyes when he returns home from a busy day to find Liam sharing a pizza with Eva.

Eva drops the bombshell that Liam will be staying with them until Maria is released from prison, but will this make life for Aidan more awkward than ever as he desperately tries to forget his affair with Maria?


Coronation Street airs these scenes on Friday, February 24 at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.
