Episode 9652 (28th December 2018)

Plot
Johnny is released on bail and stops Jenny from handing herself in. Gail tells Nick what she saw at the hotel and supposes that Lewis plans to fleece Audrey and take his fancy woman to the Dominican Republic. She dig outs the photo she took as proof but it transpires that she accidentally took a selfie instead. Sophie tells Gina that they need a confession from Duncan to help Sally. Johnny is confident that his alibi will keep him out of prison. Peter shows Simon around the snooker hall, where they're confronted by a chalk message reading "Get Out 666" and snooker cues arranged in a pentangle. Simon warns him that it's a sign of devil worship. Rana, Toyah and Imran end up at a gay bar where Rana is chatted up by Tiff. Gail warns Audrey that Lewis is two-timing her and tells her about D-Day. Audrey thinks she's being vindictive and stands by Lewis. Peter steps on some nuts Kirk was eating in the snooker hall and realises what's really going on. He gets back at Kirk and Dev by saying he's seen the light and pulled out buying the property, losing his deposit. They feel guilty at leading him up the garden path. Rana and Tiff are joined by Tiff's mate, who turns out to be Kate's ex Imogen Pascoe. Imogen is intrigued to hear that Rana and Kate are no longer together. Gina sees that she was blinded by her affection for Tim and decides to return to Newcastle as there's nothing left for her in Weatherfield. Kirk talks her round and tells her she's welcome to stay for as long as she likes. Lewis makes out to Audrey that he went shopping and denies being in a hotel. He asks Audrey to trust him.
