Shona and David receive some devastating news about their baby in Corrie

How will the shell-shocked couple respond?

 8-14 NOVEMBER

Accosting David in the precinct, Kit accuses him of winding Sarah up with his jibes about their relationship. However, David is unrepentant and shoves past him, so a seething Kit arrests him for assaulting a police officer.

When David fails to show up to take her for her scan, a fuming Shona asks Sarah for a lift, whilst David pleads with Kit to let him go as he couldn’t bear to let Shona down.

Relenting, Kit drives David to the hospital, and as David and Shona gaze at their baby on the monitor, the sonographer’s face clouds as they point out a mass on the baby’s neck.

In a unique heart heart-wrenching episode on Wednesday, the first half hour follows both Shona and David’s journey as they prepare to set off to see the consultant to find out more about the mass found on their unborn baby’s neck.

We first see the morning from Shona’s point of view as an emotional Shona wonders how David can be so casual when their baby’s life could be at risk and eventually orders him out of the car, insisting she doesn’t want him at the hospital.

We then see the same timeline but from David’s point of view as he focuses on preparing himself and his determination to be strong for Shona, despite breaking inside. Before we move back to reality as the consultant confirms the presence of a tumour on the baby’s neck and explains that if they decide to continue with the pregnancy, Shona will have to undergo complex surgery.

As the consultant reveals that their daughter’s tumour could be cancerous, how will a shell-shocked Shona and David respond?
