Joseph Brown makes a shocking admission in tonight’s episode of Coronation Street on Wednesday 8th January 2025 at 8.00pm. See our TV Guide for full listings.
After hearing Asha Alahan telling Dev that a hoax call delayed them getting to Mason Radcliffe after he was stabbed, Joseph hands himself into the police and tells Kit Green that he was responsible for the prank call that sent the ambulance on a wild goose chase.
Joseph's parents Chesney and Gemma are horrified when Craig Tinker informs them about the hoax call to the emergency services. When Craig leaves, Joseph admits that it was Hope Stape’s idea. How will Chesney react?
The stabbing is the talk of the cobbles as news spreads that the police have found the knife. Abi Webster struggles to cope with what she saw and thinks a news report of the incident is about her late son Seb.
Meanwhile, Betsy Swain confesses to mum Lisa how she helped Mason's brothers Matty and Logan to raid the factory. Lisa reels when Betsy admits that Carla Connor knows about it, but swore her to secrecy and heads to the hospital. Lisa confronts Carla over Betsy’s involvement in the factory robbery and she apologises for not saying anything, explaining how she was just trying to protect her.
Later on, Carla is touched when Bobby Crawford visits her and offers to donate a kidney if she needs it.
Elsewhere, Evelyn Plummer tells Roy Cropper that she has an induction at the university that afternoon. When Tyrone Dobbs asks if she’ll look after the girls, Evelyn agrees but it’s clear she feels put upon. Will Evelyn express her true feelings?
