CORONATION STREET

All Hope is lost — literally and metaphorically — when the youngster briefly goes missing because of things her classmates are saying. And the cause of the distress? The first extract from the John Stape book in the Gazette. Seriously? How did the local rag (which normally headlines with parking spaces) secure a book about a multiple murderer? When Nick says he wants Hope to stay away from Sam, a furious Tyrone calls and punches Nick (below). When an irate Leanne arrives at number 9, Fiz turns on Tyrone, claiming he’s cost Hope her friendship with Sam. Nothing to do with her own psychotic antics, then? At least super-lawyer Adam is around. He tells Fiz and Tyrone they may be able to take out a privacy injunction against the journalist who duped Hope into giving information for the book (of course all roads lead back to her; she probably wrote it). How will Nick react when learning from Fiz, via Hope, that Sam’s still writing to Harvey? In stranger news, Summer is still pregnant but agrees to let Mike and Esther adopt the baby — for £10k.
