ITV Corrie spoilers as Toyah makes shocking admission at Imran's funeral and Abi wins her fight for Alfie

His dramatic death in a horror car smash has been shrouded in mystery and next week Imran Habeeb’s funeral takes place on Coronation Street. His new wife Toyah, who has been accused of deliberately causing his death by crashing the car she was driving, delivers a heartfelt eulogy at the service.

And she makes a shocking admission that she wishes she had died in the crash and not Imran as his friend and colleague Adam Barlow and Alya Nazir look sceptical. With the funeral over, Peter Barlow tells Toyah how the police have just questioned him about their past with baby Susie and her desperation for a baby.

Toyah calls at the police station and tells DS Swain there are things they need to talk about. Leanne Battersby calls at the police station, desperate for news of Toyah, and determined to stand by her sister. And Toyah makes it clear that she didn’t intend to kill Imran or herself.

Meanwhile, Abi Webster learns she has to reapply for custody of Alfie and the hearing is tomorrow. After a call from the social worker, a despondent Abi tells her husband Kevin that the best she can hope for is custody of Alfie but under the supervision of a foster carer.

In the court waiting room, Abi criticises the judicial system to a woman nearby. With the custody hearing about to start, the judge takes her seat and Abi is horrified to realise it’s the woman she met in the waiting room.

Believing she’s ruined any chance she had, Abi listens as the local authority solicitor lists her failings as a mother and recommends that Alfie remains in care. But there's joy for the recovering addict as the Judge orders that Alfie be placed with Abi in a mother and baby foster facility where she will be assessed.

And a Corrie legend makes a comeback as Abi is introduced to Wendy Papadapoulos, their foster carer. When Abi reveals she’s from Coronation Street Wendy, who is best known as Ken Barlow's ex lover Wendy Crozier, keeps her counsel.

Also on the street, as Brian witters on about the new life he has planned for them in Cornwall, Evelyn can see Cathy isn’t as enthusiastic. Then The Kabin owner suggests they get married. And when Phill Whittaker breaks the news to fiancée Fiz that the whole house needs rewiring as it’s a death trap Tyrone suggests she and the girls move into number 9.
