Corrie's Kelly released from prison after murder charge - but dealt devastating blow

Coronation Street's Kelly Neelan returns to the street next week after her prison ordeal.

Kelly was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of Seb Franklin in September, after being wrongly convicted of the crime earlier in the year.

The teen (played by Millie Gibson) returned to court for the verdict after Seb's real killer, Corey Brent (Maximus Evans), walked away a free man.

After being charged, she was handed a life sentence and has remained in prison since.

In upcoming scenes though, Corey is forced to make an escape bid as the walls begin to close in on Seb's real killer.

Elsewhere, and Toyah and Imran are told they may have to choose between fostering Kelly and young Elsie, who they recently agreed to care for.

While Toyah hopes it won't come to choosing between them, Kelly decides that for Elsie's sake she should live somewhere else.

Toyah and Imran are gutted to hear that Kelly has decided to live elsewhere, but the horror is just beginning for the teen as she arrives at her supported living accommodation to find the word ‘murderer’ sprayed on the wall.

Kelly scrubs this away and later tries to reach out to Nina again, this time by replacing Seb's missing ring that Nina is devastated about losing.

But when Nina sees through it she lays into her again, leaving Kelly in tears.

She soon finds herself in trouble with the law again when she's accused of scratching Dev's car, and her alibi, Cole, claims not to have seen her all day.

Kelly is left begging Nina and Asha to believe her innocence and her alibi, but will it be enough to stop the police questioning her again?

Meanwhile, as she heads back to the accommodation she's ambushed by Cole, who threatens her over her story that they were together when the car was vandalised.

He tells her she’s inadvertently dobbed him into the police as he used their trip to pick up a consignment of stolen phones, so is Kelly in danger?

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 7.30pm on ITV.
