Coronation Street's Shona Platt will make a blunder after landing a new job in next week's episodes.

Shona (Julia Goulding) ends up with the responsibility of helping out in The Kabin, but an incident with one of the suppliers leaves her wondering how much trouble she might be in with Rita Tanner (Barbara Knox).

The storyline starts off with Brian Packham (Peter Gunn) and Cathy Matthews (Melanie Hill) planning to go on holiday.

When Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) suggests finding cover so Rita won't be left on her own to look after The Kabin, Brian hires Shona.

Brian updates Rita on what's happening, as he and Cathy prepare to set off for Cornwall. While being trained, Shona promises Rita that she won't disappoint.

But later on, Shona has an awkward encounter with a supplier named Gordon, who is delivering new stock. Shona is bored by Gordon's stories, and speaks her mind as she forces him out of the shop.

Will Gordon tell Rita what happened, and how will Rita react if she finds out?

Elsewhere on the cobbles next week, Zeedan Nazir must decide whether to come clean to Marrium about the money laundering and the fire, while Sally Metcalfe grows increasingly suspicious about Tim, who is hiding the truth about his ill health.

Producer Iain MacLeod also confirmed that David Platt and Daniel Osbourne's current feud is set to last a while.

Coronation Street airs these scenes on Friday, January 14 at 7.30pm on ITV.
