Secrets are being kept in different places in Coronation Street next week. Having placed Michael’s £1000 on a horse, Ed watches the race on tenterhooks. When the horse wins, Ed punches the air in delight.
Arriving home he stuffs the cash in a bag in the hallway to hide it from Dee-Dee and Michael. Unaware of its contents Michael grabs the bag as he heads out to Underworld to try and get his job back. But he is stunned when DS Swain arrives and wants to interview him about the cash Stephen stole.
Having answered DS Swain’s questions, Michael opens his bag and is baffled to find a huge wad of cash. DS Swain clocks the money and demands to know where it came from. Ed is horrified to see Michael being taken away in a police car under suspicion of working with Stephen to defraud Underworld.
