Coronation Street spoilers follow.

Coronation Street has filmed a shocking car accident for Faye Windass and Emma Brooker, to air around Christmas.

Faye will be back on the Cobbles after a stint in prison, but her good fortunes take a turn for the worst when the pair run down a pensioner accidentally during a driving lesson.

The two decide to keep it secret, but as is typical in soap world, will it stay secret for long? Probably not.

The pensioner is being played by Duggie Brown, who is the real-life brother of Ivy Tilsley actress Lyn Perrie.

It's another big storyline for Emma, following the dramatic festive events surrounding herself and Curtis Delamare — who drops a bombshell so huge it may completely derail their planned wedding. You can find out about that and Corrie's other planned Christmas storylines right here.

Of course, Faye isn't back on the Cobbles at the moment, but scenes that will air this week will see Tim Metcalfe visit her in prison (where she has been sent for her attack on Adam Barlow) and see that she isn't doing well in there.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 7.30pm on ITV.

Joe Anderton is a freelance news writer and resident Welsh person at Digital Spy, having worked there since 2016. 

In his time he's covered a host of live events, interviewed celebrities big and small and crowbarred a countless amount of great/awful (delete as appropriate) puns into articles. 

A big fan of TV and movies both mainstream and obscure, Joe's main interest is in video gaming. Although particularly a PlayStation gamer, he plays across Xbox, Nintendo and PC/Steam Deck, and likes to keep tabs on many games he's not got the time to play.

Joe currently does not use Twitter, but he only ever used it to tell people to watch the film Help! I'm a Fish (which you really should do).
