Toyah Battersby will receive some startling news at the hospital in Coronation Street.
In scenes airing next week on ITV and top streaming service ITX,
Toyah has some frightening medical problems in the middle of her battle with The Institute.
Viewers will see Toyah complaining about serious pain in her stomach before Nick later finds her doubled over on the floor and in need of urgent medical care.
Nick ensures that Toyah gets to the hospital, as Leanne Battersby rushes to her sisterâs bedside. The trio arenât at all prepared when Toyahâs doctor delivers some shocking news.
As Toyah tries to come to grips with what sheâs been told, her doctor returns with another unexpected bombshell.
This medical emergency comes during a very difficult time for Toyah, as she has been locked in a legal battle against The Institute and its leader Rowan Cunliffe.
The cult has been trying to silence Toyah with an expensive legal case, only offering to drop the matter if she signed a non-disclosure agreement and stopped publicly criticising The Institute.
Unfortunately for Toyah, The Institute managed to get a picture of her kissing future brother-in-law Nick and has threatened to use it as blackmail.
Leanne has no idea about her partner Nick and sister Toyahâs kiss, nor does she know that The Institute has sent someone out to spy on Toyah.
Will these secrets be revealed?
Earlier in June, cast member Georgia Taylor said she âcanât waitâ for Leanne to see the truth about the manipulative Rowan and his cult.
âItâs going to be so good to play,â she added.âBut I have to say, Iâm loving working with Emrhys [Cooper, who plays Rowan].
âWeâve had quite a few scenes now where they have a big stand off and theyâre so delicious. Everything heâs doing is just so understated but really creepy at the same time, and subversive.â
