Coronation Street's murder trial for Sarah Platt delivers dramatic twists — including shock testimony from Kit and Todd — as her case for killing violent abuser Theo Silverton in self-defence reaches its devastating conclusion on ITV, after months of build-up since her arrest.

Todd Grimshaw, a key witness, is so traumatised by reliving the abuse he suffered that he initially fails to appear in court.

Kit's cancer diagnosis is eventually revealed to Sarah on visiting day, with Bethany pleading for her mum to fight harder for her freedom.

Sarah faces calls to expose Gary Windass's role in the cover-up to save herself — a move that could blow the trial wide open.
