Cradle snatcher
WHEN Johnny does a runner with baby Susie, Eva is understandably frantic. The keys to the Rovers are also missing and when Kate and Jenny search Johnny’s flat, they realise that Johnny has disappeared and left his MS medication at home.
Eva does a media appeal to find her missing daughter and the police spring into action.
Hiding in a hotel with the baby, and with his anxiety growing, he calls Liz.
Liz thinks she is the best person to persuade him to come back but it is a race against time as the net closes in.
Johnny confesses that he wants to flee with the baby to Spain and tries to persuade Liz to go with him...
Meanwhile, a dodgy school bus arrives at the garage and, when Abi finds a stash of drugs, it sets in motion a chain of events that could endanger her chances of getting the kids back.
With Eileen returning and Abi treating her home like a squat, there’s little wonder she wants to throw the ex-junkie out on her ear but Steve begs her to reconsider. She will, as long as he calls off his engagement to Tracy.
Naturally, the psycho florist is far from happy when she realises Ms Grimshaw is trying to split them up.
Elsewhere, Kayla does her best to ruin Craig’s career, and when Bethany tries to help him get it back on track, sparks fly between them.
In less pressing news, Cathy and Brian decide to open a shop and Gemma is the centre of attention when Chesney attempts to confess his love for her, but is pipped to the post by Henry. Gemma is flattered, but can she trust him?
