Coronation Street‘s next set of spoiler clips has arrived – offering our first look at a huge week for Debbie Webster. As Debbie anxiously prepares for her sentencing hearing, her secret son Carl starts to feel guilty for deceiving her over the recent road disaster. What will happen when his conscience finally gets the better of him?

Elsewhere, Bernie Winter-Alahan is left unsettled as newcomer Mal Roper insists on staying in Weatherfield. And Todd Grimshaw sparks further concern over his behaviour, as Theo Silverton’s abuse continues to take its toll.

Bernie faces her worst nightmare, as Mal plans to stick around in Weatherfield for the foreseeable future to carry out the electrics job at Roy Cropper’s café.

Fearful over what Mal’s intentions may be, Bernie has a quiet word with him at the Rovers Return – making it very clear that she’s not interested in him romantically because she’s a married woman.

Mal promises to stay out of Bernie’s way, which could be a difficult task since the café is her place of work! Is Mal being genuine with his reassurances?
