Coronation Street Spoilers: David and Shona’s Baby Diagnosis Rocks Weatherfield in Heartbreaking Week
Next week, Coronation Street delivers one of its most emotional storylines of the year as David and Shona Platt face devastating news about their unborn baby. A special episode will center on their grief, love, and determination in the face of uncertainty — while other residents of Weatherfield face crises of their own.
Here are five major spoilers for the week of Monday, November 10 to Friday, November 14.
1. David and Shona Platt’s World Collapses
The week begins with turmoil when David’s anger boils over during an argument with Kit, leading to his arrest for assaulting a police officer. As a result, he misses Shona’s scan, and it’s Kit who eventually drives him to the hospital.
Their joy quickly turns to heartbreak when the sonographer detects a mass on the baby’s neck. In a special standalone episode, viewers will see the tragedy unfold from Shona’s perspective as she struggles to cope with the news.
Believing David is being dismissive, she orders him to leave, unaware that he’s only pretending to stay strong for her sake. When the consultant later confirms the mass is a tumour, the couple are crushed to learn that it could be cancerous. Shona must now face a life-altering decision about continuing the pregnancy and undergoing complex surgery.
2. Carla Connor Exposes Becky Swain’s Lies
Elsewhere, Carla Connor grows suspicious of Becky Swain, convinced she’s lying about being watched at her flat. Becky’s wife Lisa initially defends her, but Carla urges Lisa to see the truth — warning that if Becky were really in danger, she wouldn’t risk Betsy’s safety by staying at No. 6.
Tension explodes when Becky overhears their conversation, setting the stage for another web of deceit and confrontation.
3. Fiz Dobbs Reaches Her Breaking Point
At Underworld, Fiz Dobbs finally snaps under pressure. Still juggling Tyrone’s recovery and the chaos of family life, she lashes out at her sewing machine in frustration. Confiding in Izzy, Kirk, and Michael, Fiz admits she’s barely coping.
When Michael accidentally reveals her meltdown to Tyrone, he tries to fix things by returning to work. But with Kevin still reeling from his separation from Abi, the garage remains shut — leaving Tyrone feeling helpless and Fiz’s stress at an all-time high.
4. Will Driscoll Hides a Painful Secret
The Driscoll family struggles to guide Will back on track after his return from Leeds. Though Eva arranges PT sessions with James to motivate him, Will’s disinterest and secrecy raise concern.
He lies about attending a meeting with his old athletics team, but when Coach Megan drops him home, Ben insists on thanking her with lunch. Will’s reaction suggests something darker is going on — but what is he hiding from his family?
5. Brody Michaelis Lashes Out at Sally and Tim
Finally, tensions flare between Brody Michaelis and foster parents Sally and Tim Metcalfe. When Lou gets into trouble behind bars, the couple choose not to tell Brody, hoping to protect him. However, Kit lets the truth slip — and Brody explodes, accusing the Metcalfes of shutting him out.
In an explosive scene, Brody calls them “useless foster parents,” unaware that Joanie and her social worker overhear every word. The fallout leaves Sally and Tim’s foster arrangement hanging by a thread.
Next week’s Coronation Street promises heartbreak, tension, and tough choices. From the Platts’ tragic diagnosis to the Metcalfes’ family turmoil, Weatherfield faces another unforgettable storm of emotion and betrayal.
