Karen's dream wedding becomes a nightmare

In the second of tonight's dramatic double helping of the nation's favourite soap, time stands still for Karen as she struggles to take in what is happening.

After weeks of planning and even more bragging, Karen's big day is in tatters. Tracy Barlow has stunned the congregation and destroyed Karen with the news that Steve, not Roy, is in fact the father of her daughter, and Steve can't deny that what she is saying is true!

As the shocking truth sinks in, Karen runs from the church in tears leaving Steve to chase her to the vestry with the mammoth task of persuading her that he loves her and Tracy means nothing to him.

Meanwhile Roy and Hayley have slipped out of the church amidst the mayhem and are hot footing it back to Weatherfield.

And Deirdre discovers that the sins of the daughter are enough to turn everyone against her, as the guests gossip about the day's events.

Tracy has only one goal in sight and having ruined the wedding she turns her attentions to trying to get her baby back.
