The neighbors Shona and Todd (Gareth Pierce) are in for a Weatherfield Street war after Shona issued Todd a homemade parking ticket after he dumps the Shuttleworth hearse outside No.8.
However, their feud results in a horror accident this week when Shona accidentally hits Todd and leaves him fighting for his life.
In the upcoming episodes, Shona has to move David’s car to park somewhere else because Todd’s hearse is already parked outside No.8.
But while in the process, Shona hits someone and, due to panic, she drives away without checking the worrying scene to confide in her husband David (Jack P. Shepherd).
After confessing that she might have hit someone, David checks the scene to see any evidence of the accident but finds none.

Shrugging off Shona’s worries, David brings the car to Abi Franklin (Sally Carman) to have the dents mended.
But soon the couple’s peaceful world tumbles down when Eileen (Sue Cleaver) announces that Todd has been a victim of a hit and run.

But instead of surrendering his wife to the police, David assures Shona he’s hidden the car so they can run away from justice.
It looks like the odds are in their favor when Todd wakes up from his sleep and quizzes his mother Eileen about what had happened. When revealed that the culprit left him fighting for his life, Todd admits he can’t remember anything.

Speaking about Todd’s horror storyline, the actress Julia Goulding revealed that when Todd admits he clean forgets the accident, the couple will feel hopeful.
“David is completely aware of the problems Todd could cause them (if he remembers being run down),” she said.

But in a devastating twist later next week, police officer Craig (Colson Smith) arrests David after finding the latter’s abandoned car miles away from the cobbles.
Feigning his relief, David tells Craig his car was stolen, but Craig questions him after finding that the paint fragments on Todd’s clothes match those on his car’s dent.
“David is arrested and Shona feels awful, it is the worst thing ever for her. It is all her fault but she can’t say anything,” actress Julia confessed.
“Shona is more panicked about what could happen to her for breaking the law but David is more worried about what will happen if they get away with it where the police are concerned [as] they won’t get away with it with Todd,” she explained.
“David knows of Todd’s form far more than Shona does as she doesn’t remember but she knows he is a wrong’un, she knows about all the Paul and Billy stuff so she is aware he’s a bad egg.” she added.
But David is soon released when Craig informs him they found other evidence. Did Shona do what she had to do? Or did she frame someone else?
