Everything happens for a reason in Corrie, so that one-night stand between Abi and Imran after the trial that only we know about was bound to lead to something juicy \u2013 like a surprise pregnancy, for instance. Oh yes.<\/p>\n

This week, Abs faces the possibility she could be carrying Imran\u2019s baby and arranges a clandestine meeting with the cheating lawyer in Victoria Gardens, telling him if she is up the duff she\u2019s going to come clean to Kevin. The same Kevin who is hovering around as they\u2019re chatting in hushed tones\u2026 What has he overheard? And is Abi actually preggers?<\/p>

Emma and Faye\u2019s cover up<\/h2>\n

Learner driver Faye is already nervous behind the wheel, and when she gives a more-than-slightly merry Emma a lift home from a New Year\u2019s Eve party she panics when she knocks over an old man. Ted (Duggie Brown), the injured pensioner in question, seems fine and the girls take him to his nearby flat to make sure he\u2019s OK.<\/p>\n

Emma insists they don\u2019t report the incident as she\u2019ll get in trouble for being drunk and in charge of a learner, an ill-advised decision which quickly comes back to bite both girls. As their cover-up gets increasingly complicated, Emma and Faye turn on each other \u2013 then end up living together when Craig Tinker (Colson Smith) arranges for him Ms Windass to move into the salon flat. It\u2019s going to get awkward.<\/p>\n

Tim\u2019s deadly bombshell<\/h2>\n

New year, new start says Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor) as she puts her and Tim on a health kick, which involves a check-up with Dr Gaddas (Christine Mackie) for a physical MOT. Sal gets the all-clear and so does Tim \u2013 at least that\u2019s what he tells his missus, the truth is the check-up highlights more heart issues and he\u2019s referred to a cardiologist.<\/p>\n

Confiding in Aggie Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw) his chequered health history, including the heart attack wake-up call from a few years back, Tim admits he\u2019s scared the doc will deliver bad news. When Aggie makes him attend the appointment he\u2019s told another cardiac arrest could kill him and he needs a triple heart byass \u2013 but he refuses to tell Sally\u2026<\/p>\n

Sam finally speaks<\/h2>\n

Sam is still mute and withdrawn following his mum\u2019s murder and Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) is at a loss. When he leaves his despondent son in the care of Mary Taylor (Patti Clare), Sam develops a fascination with chess \u2013 could this be his first step back to social interaction?<\/p>\n

Turns out smart Sam is the male equivalent of Beth Harmon from The Queen\u2019s Gambit and wipes the floor with Mary when he starts playing. Beating grown-ups at the game restores the spring in Sam\u2019s step, and during a match with his dad he starts properly talking again. The power of chess\u2026 who knew?!<\/p>\n
