There\u2019s lots of drama on the way on the cobbles, as star footballer James Bailey (Nathan Graham) suffers a shocking health emergency during a charity match. Will he be okay? Also, Toyah Habeeb (Georgia Taylor) is embroiled in yet more trouble as she makes a new decision about Spider Nugent (Martin Hancock)<\/a>. And Spider\u2019s activist associate Griff makes quite an impression on Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne), who is still smarting from recent injustices.<\/p>\n

Stephen Reid (Todd Boyce) will be challenged by ex-wife Gabrielle over his behaviour, but can he cover his tracks? Stu Carpenter (Bill Fellows) will find himself harassed thanks to his past; while young Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) is having problems trying to fit in with those his own age. Elsewhere, can teenage bride-to-be Kelly Neelan (Millie Gibson) convince those close to her to approve of her future plans?<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a look at what to expect on Coronation Street<\/a> from 5th \u2013 9th September 2022<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. James has a cardiac arrest on the pitch<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As the Rovers\u2019 charity football match kicks off, pro player James is forced to step in when Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine) storms out, wrongly thinking that his ongoing issue has been disclosed. James\u2019s mum Aggie Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw) isn\u2019t present as she invites a glum Tim for a brew \u2013 but in nurse Aggie\u2019s absence, James collapses on the pitch with a heart attack. It\u2019s left to his brother Michael (Ryan Russell) to perform CPR on James as Ed calls frantically for an ambulance.<\/p>\n

At the hospital, James is informed he has a condition called cardiomyopathy and he needs surgery to be fitted with a device to prevent further cardiac arrests. Aggie breaks down as her son is wheeled away to theatre, but what does this mean for James\u2019s future?<\/p>\n

2. Toyah makes a big decision after more trouble<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Toyah once again warns Carla Barlow (Alison King) about taking a closer look at Nadeem\u2019s business practices as they explain about the protest. Carla later tells Nadeem their deal is off, and the police arrive to stop the protest. But as officer Craig Tinker (Colson Smith) tries to get people to leave, Griff has no intention of complying and hurls a bottle which hits Craig over the head! Spider is left horrified as Toyah is also caught up in the chaos, and there\u2019s worse to come for her.<\/p>\n

Imran\u2019s mum Saira Habeeb (Kim Vithana) arrives later in the week, and once again accuses her of murdering him \u2013 this time suggesting that Toyah did so to be with her new boyfriend. Toyah denies this, and Griff steps in when Saira refuses to back down. Griff suggests they let Saira\u2019s car tyres down before offering to torch it instead, but Spider advises Toyah to leave it as her trial looms. Spider begs her to cut ties with Griff, revealing he loves her and his marriage is over. The pair kiss on the balcony as they agree to keep their renewed romance a secret \u2013 well, you\u2019re already smooching out in the open guys! Naturally, it\u2019s not long before Saira spots them \u2013 what will she do next?<\/p>\n

3. Carla fears Griff is a bad influence on Peter<\/strong><\/h2>\n

After the protest, Griff lies that he wasn\u2019t the person who threw the bottle, saying that he doesn\u2019t condone violence. Carla isn\u2019t convinced, and is rattled when she sees the man lecturing her husband Peter on his conspiracy theory on big pharma companies. Could this be the start of a worrying new friendship for Peter?<\/p>\n

Carla makes it clear that she disapproves of Peter getting involved with Griff, but how will he react? Remember, Peter is still angry over his discovery that surgeon Thorne rushed through his liver transplant last year \u2013 so could he be an easy target for someone like Griff who seems to have an agenda over what he sees as injustices of the world?<\/p>\n

4. Stephen is threatened by his ex<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Stephen has been coercing niece Sarah Barlow (Tina O\u2019Brien) over her involvement in the factory for his own gain; but just as she explains that she has a meeting with potential investors, Stephen<\/a> is shaken by an unexpected visitor. It\u2019s Gabrielle, who demands he pay back the 200,000 Euros he stole from her company or she\u2019ll report him to the police!<\/p>\n

Stephen finds the trust fund papers and begins practising mum Audrey Roberts\u2019 (Sue Nicholls) signature, intent on committing forgery to access the funds. But when Audrey arrives, has she caught him in the act? What will deceitful Stephen do next to placate Gabrielle?<\/p>\n

5. Stu is targeted<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As Zeedan Nazir (Qasim Akhtar<\/span>) looks over the empty bookings diary at Speed Daal, he worries that Stu\u2019s reputation as a murderer is destroying the business. Of course, fans know that Stu has protested his innocence<\/a> \u2013 and Zeedan and his family are standing by Stu. But things soon take another nasty turn for the man.<\/p>\n

On his way home, Stu is harassed by two lads in the street who brand him a killer. Later, Roy Cropper (David Neilson) tells Zeedan about the attack on Stu. Is Stu going to face more of the same now that his past has been exposed publicly? Can he prove he didn\u2019t murder Charlie, and how will Zeedan deal with the restaurant\u2019s problems?<\/p>

6. Sam struggles to fit in<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As Sam does a class presentation about chess, another boy called Owen tells him how much he enjoyed it. But Sam fails to recognise that Owen is being sarcastic as he offers to teach him the game. Sam sets up for chess at the caf\u00e9, oblivious over the fact that Owen has no intention of showing up. Pal Hope Stape (Isabella Flanagan) suggests that Sam pretends he loves gaming, so he invites Jack Webster (Kyran Bowes) and Liam Connor over after school.<\/p>\n

But when Sam comments that the computer game is pointless and requires no skill, the boys look at him in disbelief. It\u2019s clear that Sam is struggling as he tries to chat with them \u2013 but when they question him over his letter-writing, he changes the subject. Sam ends up continuing to impress as he attends Jalena\u2019s party in a football top, but Jalena tells him she doesn\u2019t like football and was hoping they could meet up for chess. Sam\u2019s gutted when she explains she\u2019s now invited someone else; but will he learn that the best thing is to be himself? And who has he been writing to?<\/p>\n

7. Will Kelly get her way?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Kelly tries to keep the peace between stepbrothers Jake Windass as Liam Connor as they fight over the Xbox, and offers up her laptop instead. But the boys soon spot that she has been researching Gretna Green for her wedding to Aadi Alahan (Adam Hussain).<\/p>\n

Kelly is quick to avoid their questions, but as Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) hears about it, she tells husband Gary Windass (Mikey North) they need to stop Kelly\u2019s plan. Gary warns her that they could drive Kelly away if they stand in her way \u2013 so will they decide to stand by her instead?<\/p>\n
