Gemma Winter (Dolly-Rose Campbell) had the day from hell in Monday’s (June 24)

episode of Coronation Street. As soon as morning broke, she was stressing over

being unable to afford some new shoes for Carys, her young daughter.

While Carys was at nursery, things got even worse for Gemma when she received a £70 parking fine. When Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) discovered the letter she was shocked, with an upset Gemma pointing out that she only has £20 to last her till the end of the week.

Gemma then received a call from the nursery informing her Carys was upset because her shoes were rubbing on her feet. Feeling terrible, Gemma took her to a shoe shop and found some smart looking ones that she believed were in the sale.

Sadly, the assistant told Gemma the shoes weren’t at a discounted price and she couldn’t find anymore in Carys’ size.

When the shop worker walked away, Gemma reflected on her situation and hated how unfair the world was treating her. Not wanting her daughter to suffer, she kept the shiny shoes on Carys’ feet and legged it out of the store.

Returning home, Bernie found Gemma and wondered how she could afford to get some new shoes for Carys, but stressed over paying a parking fine.

After Bernie discovered Gemma’s crime, she returned to the store and placed the shoes back, but was spotted by the owner.

That evening, with Gemma back at home, hoping the matter had been put in the past, she got the shock of her life when the shop owner arrived at the front door, ready to pick his son up – aka Joseph’s (William Flanagan) mate.

The man alluded to calling the police before the episode ended, and we know in upcoming episodes Gemma will end up in a cell, and will speak to Kit (Jacob Roberts), unaware he’s her brother.

Will Gemma end up behind bars for this crime?

Or will she be saved by her sibling?
