GEMMA Winter is getting ready to tie the knot with long-term partner Chesney Brown.
But when a forgotten member of the family returns to Coronation Street, her mother Bernie is less than pleased.
Gemma Winter (portrayed by Dolly-Rose Campbell) has been planning ahead for her dream wedding, despite her twin brother Paul Foreman's health and legal troubles.
In recent scenes of the ITV drama, Gemma and Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) made the decision to invite a very special member of their large family – Joseph's maternal grandmother Linda Hancock.
Coming up next week, actress Jacqueline Leonard reprises her role as Linda arrives and thanks Gemma for inviting her to the wedding.
Linda soon offers to pay for the catering… but Bernie Winter (Jane Hazlegrove) is left seething.

Linda was last seen in Weatherfield in March, 2022, following a storyline which saw her suggest that Joseph should live in Portugal with her.
The young boy played by William Flanagan was feeling left out by his father Chesney following the birth of quadruplets.
To make matters worse, he was also bullied by his classmates due to his father low income.
Joseph was also at the core of a shocking kidnapping ordeal during which Bernie Winter tried to get her hands on some extra cash.
Coronation Street airs every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8pm on ITV.
