Chesney and Linda call for help when Joseph Brown falls unconscious in tonight’s episode of Coronation Street at 8.00pm. See our TV Guide for full listings.
Linda hands Chesney a business card for a family solicitor but he refuses to discuss it. When Joseph gags on his milk, Chesney realises that the fridge is broken and all the food has gone off. He emerges from No.5 with a sickly-looking Joseph Brown and assures Gemma that it’s just an upset tummy as Dr Gaddas listens to their exchange with interest.
At No.5, Gemma finds the solicitor's business card and accuses Chesney of plotting to take her kids off her but he assures her he’d never do that. When Linda reveals it was her idea as she doesn’t think she’s safe to be around her own children, Gemma storms out.
Later, Chesney receives a call from school telling him Joseph is poorly. At No.5, Chesney and Linda fuss over Joseph but as he stands up his legs give way and he collapses on the sofa, barely conscious. Panic-stricken, Chesney orders Linda to call an ambulance. At the hospital, the doctor approaches and explains that after talking to Dr Gaddas, they suspect Joseph has Lyme disease which he contracted whilst camping.
