The day of baby Bertie's christening arrives on Coronation Street next week, but it's far from harmonious.
Granddad Ken is in a bad mood after receiving a letter from the council charging him with dog fouling while auntie Beth is delighted, and as the families bicker mum Sinead pleads for calm.
Godfather Chesney Brown is upset that gobby girlfreind Gemma Winter is feeling too ill and hungover to go to the christening. Then she tries to make amends by cooking a fish pie (perfect for a hangover) but falls asleep leaving it to burn.
She later reads Chesney's texts to Tyrone and fears their relationship is over, and with Gemma still feeling sick Chesney implies that she has a drink problem.
Her pal Rita Tanner questions whether the sickness could be something else and suggests a pregnancy test, and she's shocked when the test is positive.
Bertie’s christening descends into chaos, and a food fight, as the Tinkers and the Barlows row over the dog fouling issue. In a bid to try and keep the peace Kirk picks up his guitar and starts singing - but will it do the trick?
