Abi Franklin (Sally Carman) was rocked to learn that the twins she gave up for adoption are emigrating to Australia. But with the support of long-time Coronation Street resident Kevin (Michael Le Vell), she has been coping better than expected and has even debated saying goodbye to them before they leave.

She recently revealed that she is confident she made the right decision, certain that they will live a happier and more full life in the hands of another family.

But, sensing that she will regret it if she does not see them one last time, she seeks Seb's (Harry Visinoni) help in arranging for her to have one final moment with them so she can close this chapter for good.

That time comes next week and she is delighted when she hears that she will be able to see them. As she works before the meeting, Kevin heads off to deal with a breakdown and she continues alone, happy with the distraction.
