Christmas Day looks set to be a particularly dramatic one for Coronation Street couple Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine) and Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) – as a surprise wedding day heads for disaster.
Tyrone has a big day surprise for the woman he loves but, in typical Corrie fashion, getting to the aisle is going to be difficult.
In new scenes being filmed on location, Fiz is left in a crisis when her car breaks down on a country road as she tries to make it to the ceremony.
An onlooker said: ‘Fiz blows a gasket when her car breaks down on a country road on Xmas day morning.
‘After letting off some steam she finds a friendly walker to help her get back on the road to recovery.
‘Will she make it back to Coronation Street in time for Tyrone’s romantic surprise wedding?’

With smoke billowing out of the bonnet and Fiz ranting at the vehicle, the photographer also described it as a ‘funny John Cleese like sketch’ as ‘Fiz sceams at and kicks the car’.
The images also show an elderly man approach to give Fiz a hand – will he be the hero of the hour and save Fiz’s Christmas?
It’s been a tumultuous few years for Fiz and Tyrone, so viewers will be hopeful for an uplifting festive day for them.
They had been estranged for over a year after Tyrone broke Fiz’s heart by cheating on her with Alina.
Fiz moved on and got married to Phill, who became Tyrone’s fierce love rival – and comedy fight sparring partner.
The family is now back together, but the spectre of serial killer John Stape looms large.

Can Tyrone seal the cracks with a happy Christmas wedding?
And will Fiz manage to sort her car trouble and get there on time? Or even at all?
