Coronation Street films surprise arrest in Bernie and Fern story

Coronation Street spoilers follow.

Coronation Street‘s Bernie Winter lookalike plot is going to take another big turn, and thankfully it’s going to be a positive one.

Bernie has found herself in hot water lately, after being framed by her con woman lookalike Fern Lindon, who stole thousands of pounds worth of jewellery and let Bernie take the fall for it. She’s been trying to clear her name, but the police think she’s making Fern up.

We know that upcoming episodes will see Bernie track down Fern’s ex-husband Howard at a country club and ask for his help in setting up a fake lottery winners’ party, but there will also be a kidnapping twist and the possibility that Howard might be in on Fern’s deception.

But it looks like things will turn out for the best, as photos from the filming show Fern being arrested, with a bag of swag in tow.

Will this be the end of Bernie’s lookalike nightmare, or will Fern find a way to get revenge?

Whatever happens, the Winter-Brown family will have a rough time over the holidays. Bernie actress Jane Hazlegrove said: “There will continue to be financial worries for the Winter-Browns, especially with Christmas coming up.”

Fern actress Gabrielle Glaister, who is famous for Brookside as well as a stint on Emmerdale, has admitted that she is currently eyeing up a role on EastEnders as the next box on her soap bingo card.

“I have no idea [what I’m going to do next]. I’m struggling with empty nest syndrome as my son’s gone off to university, so somebody needs to give me a job,” she said.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV and streams on the ITV Hub.
