We're up in Manchester again at the moment with a couple of busy days ahead of us, so we've had to record early this week, covering the episodes of running from Sunday 5th to Thursday 9th April (Episodes #11,828 - 11,832).

There’s a huge Easter bombshell for Steve and Ben this week as Maggie drops the news that they’re half-brothers. Both men are left reeling, but it’s Ben who’s hit hardest, immediately fearing what it could mean for his own health - has he inherited his newly discovered da’s condition? In fact, medical drama is everywhere you look this week (though, refreshingly for Corrie, not a hospital scene in sight!). Sam appears to be in the grip of a serious mental health crisis whilst Debbie undergoes an MRI scan that confirms her dementia is worsening. Elsewhere, klepto Jodie adds yet another item to her growing stash, Tim decides it’s time to confront Tricia, and Theo walks in on Todd and Sarah together at the flat - but what fallout lies ahead for poor Todd?

Another slow news week this week, but still plenty of feedback, so we round off the episode with another rummage through the virtual mailbag!
