Coronation Street spoilers: Cassie taken aback as Evelyn Plummer makes unexpected gesture to her

When Cassie (Claire Sweeney) returned to Evelyn Plummer’s (Maureen Lipman) life in Coronation Street, things were difficult to say the least.

Cassie’s introductory storyline saw her discover mum Evelyn had been living with Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) and his family for years. Due to her daughter’s history with drugs, Evelyn was reluctant to introduce Cassie to the Stape/Dobbs family – but she had other ideas.

Making her way to Weatherfield, chaotic Cassie found Tyrone and said that she’s his mum. This left Tyrone stunned, as he had spent his life under the impression his birth mother had died.

Moving past the secrets and lies, Tyrone decided to get to know Cassie, but things weren’t easy.

She slipped up multiple times while trying to stay off the drugs, with one incident putting her in hospital after Hope (Isabella Flanagan) found her on outside on the floor.

In recent months, however, Cassie has slowly shown her family that even though she makes mistakes, building relationships with her loved ones is incredibly important to her.

Her daughter changing for the better is at the forefront of Evelyn’s mind in upcoming episodes, so she decides to cook lunch and buy Cassie a drink afterwards.

The behaviour leaves Cassie bemused and later, in the pub, there’s huge progress as she raises a toast with her mum while they both agree to put the past behind them.

It’s a turning point, but will we see anymore troublesome behaviour from Cassie?

Or will this mark the end of things?
