Steve McDonald (played by Simon Gregson) hates seeing his daughter Emma Brooker (Alexandra Mardell) so upset after being dumped by her boyfriend Curtis Delamere (Sam Retford) on Coronation Street (ITV, 7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings).

So it does not go down well when Steve's wife Tracy (Kate Ford) catches him offering Curtis a lift in his taxi.

Steve attempts to talk his way out of trouble, but Tracy spills the beans to Emma, who feels betrayed that Steve is being so nice to the fella who broke her heart.

When Steve and Curtis return to the Street, Emma decides to confront them both and find out what's going on.
