She's seemingly adamant to drag her sibling through the mud, while Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) spills on the circumstances that he found her in on the night of the multi-vehicle pile-up.

Meanwhile, as Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) wars with Maggie Driscoll (Pauline McLynn) over the potential sale of her Rovers share, Ben Driscoll (Aaron McCusker) takes unwell and is rushed to – straight into the direction of son Will (Lucas Hodgson Wale) and his groomer Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon).

Elsewhere, there could be hope for Swarla with thanks to the late Hayley Cropper, and Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard) faces the wrath of Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall).

Here's everything happening in Coronation Street between Monday 19th and Friday 23rd January 2026.

Eva pretends to be shocked when Leanne suggests that she would like to buy Maggie out of the pub, but it doesn't take long for the mother-in-law from hell to realise what's going on.

The women begin to bicker when Leanne offers £160k for her share, and Maggie takes a tumble when she falls over Leanne's bag. They're unaware that Ben is beginning to feel unwell when retrieving the beer delivery. He clutches his chest in pain and suffers heart palpitations...

Meanwhile, having explained that she's going away for a while, Will wonders whether Megan is ill. They're at A&E, unaware that his dad is making his way to the hospital too.

Finally alone with Shona, Jodie decides to rake up the past and challenge her sister for abandoning her with their awful parents. She's clearly on a mission to ruin Shona's character, and begins to drip poison into Lily's ear about their past.

The next day, as the siblings head to Roy's Rolls for some brekkie, Jodie is spooked by the sight of Kit and does a runner. Shona is naturally intrigued, and when Jodie fails to give any answers, she asks the copper instead.

He explains that they met in the woods near Connelton following the car crash, and that he found her wrists bound with cable ties. It seemed to him that she was trying to escape someone.

Later, Jodie offers to land a helping hand at the caff in Nina's absence, and enjoys a flirtatious moment with Carl. Abi warns her against it, while over at the hospital, Shona tells David that she's trying to find their dad so she can work out what happened.

3. Nina Lucas is suspicious of Roy Cropper's penpal

Amid his pen pal mystery, Roy begins to write another letter to Alice. Nina teases him – saying that perhaps it's time to take their relationship to the next level - and he's deeply offended.

But is she everything that she seems?

Following their conversation, he urges Carla to make amends with her ex-fiancée as Hayley would want her to be happy. She notes that their departed loved one would want him to be happy too.

The next day, Carla is stunned when Ryan hands her a letter from Lisa, inviting her to lunch at the Bistro. She can't resist texting her back, but turns off her phone while having lunch with a client at the hotel.
