Coronation Street fans distracted by Kevin Webster as Abi flees the cobbles

Kevin told Imran he knows he lied in court, telling a judge Abi had been using drugs again in a bid to get custody of Alfie. Imran couldn't deny it any longer, and promised Kevin he would "make things right" and rearrange custody.

He called Abi and left a voicemail, while viewers saw her sobbing in the street. While some watching at home were quick to slam Imran for his actions, others were distracted by Kevin's appearance.

Taking to Twitter, Marilyn said: "Has Kevin got a new jacket the same colour as the one he had before?". Floweroflondon said: "Kev's jacket is older than the street".

Owen said: "His coat is probably older than Rosie and Sophie". William said: "You all laugh at Kev's jacket but at least he looks like he's been hit by the cost of living crisis unlike Shaun with his vast collection of snazzy jumpers he must have put into storage while he was homeless, its authentic."

Coronation Street usually airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8.30pm on ITV and the ITV Hub - but this week sees a schedule shakeup
