Coronation Street favourite Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) is left heartbroken over the festive period as Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine) moves on for good with her new man.
When Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) lets slip how much Tyrone is dreading Christmas without his family, Fiz feels awful.
As Tyrone and his grandmother Evelyn Plummer (Maureen Lipman) prepare their Christmas dinner for two, they’re interrupted by the arrival of Fiz with the girls.
Tyrone’s thrilled to realise she cancelled the holiday, even if it does mean spending the day with Fiz’s new man Phill Whittaker (Jamie Kenna).
But with a rescued pigeon, Phill’s visit to his mum and an ill timed kiss from Tyrone, will there be peace and goodwill amongst men?
Tyrone tells Evelyn that its obvious Phill will get bored of playing the family man and says he’ll be waiting for Fiz when it all ends in tears.
Meanwhile, when Phill suggests the girls might like to call him stepdad, Fiz reckons it’s a great idea.
Phill then reveals he’s seen a super family house but understands if she’s not ready. How will Fiz respond?
When Fiz drops the bombshell that she wants to sell No.9, Tyrone’s shocked.
The mechanic asserts the house is rightfully his and he’s not selling it but as Fiz explains to Evelyn that Tyrone’s ruined her happy memories of No.9 and she needs a fresh start.
Evelyn tells Tyrone it’s his duty to do right by Fiz and the kids and if that means selling the house, so be it. Will Tyrone agree?
Elsewhere, Nina Lucas (Mollie Gallagher) gets a very special Christmas present from Carla Connor (Alison King), who’s really concerned for her.
Nina later admits she’s struggling and tells Asha Alahan (Tanisha Gorey) how she’s suffering from anxiety.
The youngster says she lives in constant fear that something bad will happen to the people she loves.
Asha suggests they sync their phones so she’ll always know where she is.
Having spent the night at Asha’s, Nina feels refreshed and gives Asha her Christmas present, a framed drawing of the two of them.
Asha is overcome and Dev’ Alahan’s (Jimmi Harkishin) pleased to see her happy again.
However, when Asha calls in the cafe she finds Nina suffering from another anxiety attack and does her best to reassure her.
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday on ITV at 7.30pm and 8.30pm
