Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) and Gemma Winter’s (Dolly-Rose Campbell) life changed a great deal at the end of last year in Coronation Street when Les Battersby died. Bruce Jones’ Corrie character died suddenly at work. In the aftermath, a comment from Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) sparked an investigation into the place Les worked.

Toyah (Georgia Taylor), Leanne (Jane Danson) and Chesney discovered the abattoir Les was working at when he died was willing to pay the trio a share of £50k – provided they signed an NDA. During Les’ wake, Chesney was approached by a man who worked alongside Les, who insisted he owed it to the former resident to tell his family the truth.

As the man revealed that the company had previously cut corners when it came to health and safety, leading to several serious injuries in the past, he explained that he believed there was a cover-up going on.
Now Chesney has received his cheque of £20k, upcoming episodes will see him tell Gemma that he’s paid off the last of their bills. With a little bit of money left over, Chesney reveals to Gemma that they can book a week in Alicante. That evening, Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) and Bernie announce their engagement in the pub. Ches, Gemma, Summer (Harriet Bibby), Aadi (Adam Hussain) and Asha (Tanisha Gorey) are completely delighted for them.
