Coronation Street spoilers: Izzy Armstrong returns

Ready to take action, Linda first slyly suggests Joseph should come live with her in Portugal in scenes due to air on our screens next week.

Fuming, Chesney throws Linda out of the house, making it clear to her that she is to stay away from Joseph in the future.

Later on, Chesney and Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) discuss how they can ensure Joseph’s happiness… while the young boy listens in.

After misunderstanding the conversation, Joseph is convinced that he is not wanted at No.5 anymore and says he would rather live with Granny Linda.

But while Chesney begs his son to reconsider, another member of the Armstrong clan steps out of the woodwork.

Linda’s second daughter Izzy returns to Weatherfield to cross swords with her estranged mother, tearing a strip off her for trying to take Joseph away from his family.

The first member of her family to be introduced to Corrie fans, Izzy was followed into the cobbles by her father and sister Katy soon after her arrival.

Actress Cherylee Houston hasn’t been seen in the ITV programme since 2021, after a brief appearance via video call.

How will Linda react to her daughter confronting her?

Will Joseph really leave Weatherfield?
