Coronation Street spoilers<\/a> follow from Friday’s episode (6 February)<\/a>, which is available to watch now on ITVX<\/a> and YouTube<\/a> but hasn’t yet aired on ITV1.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street’s Debbie Webster receives her prison sentence<\/a> tonight – and it’s devastating news for the Weatherfield favourite. As Debbie appears in court to face the music over the Corriedale crash<\/a>, she’s distraught to realise that she’ll be behind bars for years rather than months.<\/p>\n

Friday’s episode follows the emotional day of Debbie’s sentencing hearing, after her recent decision to take the blame for the multi-car collision that brought Coronation Street and Emmerdale<\/a> together in the recent soap crossover.<\/p>\n

Carl was drink-driving when he and Debbie crashed, but Debbie has risked everything to protect her secret son.<\/p>\n

In the latest scenes, Debbie’s husband Ronnie Bailey supports her in court – alongside Kevin Webster, Abi Webster and Ryan Connor. Sadly for Debbie, there’s no sign of Carl despite the huge sacrifice that she’s making for him.<\/p>\n

Summing up the case, the judge starts off on a hopeful note by addressing Debbie’s previously clean driving record, her admission of guilt and the extenuating circumstances involving her vascular dementia diagnosis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, he adds: “In my judgement, this case is so serious that only an immediate custodial sentence is appropriate.<\/p>\n

“Therefore, I arrive at a sentence of four years. After a reduction for plea, the sentence is lowered to two years and eight months.”<\/p>\n

Debbie is beside herself as she’s led away to begin her sentence, without a proper chance to say goodbye to her family. But is she really going to prison for nearly three years, or will a soap twist see her walk free sooner?<\/p>\n

All we know for now is that next week’s episodes see Debbie come face-to-face with Lou Michaelis behind bars<\/a>, as Farrel Hegarty reprises the role for a guest stint.<\/p>\n

“[Debbie’s] going to need her mates more than ever,” Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks recently teased<\/a>. “Glenda, Christina, Bernie and Sally really rally and get her through these darker moments, as she braces herself for a future that is looking quite uncertain at the minute.<\/p>\n

“Obviously, getting sent to prison is a terrible thing. Getting sent to prison if you’ve got early-onset dementia must be a terrifying prospect. So she’s struggling with all these emotions.”<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on weeknights at 8.30pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
