However, when Carla reveals the testing will be done at the prison he appears to be put off.
Rob says, ‘I just thought they’d want to do it in a hospital that’s all’ and was ‘looking forward to a day out’.
His reaction appears to shake Carla, who looks concerned and guarded.
It comes after it was revealed the fire is proven to be arson and some of the street’s best known residents start to feel the heat and find themselves forced to try and convince the police of their innocence.
Viewers will see a mysterious hooded figure we see pushing a petrol-soaked rag through the letterbox of Number Eight, starting the ᴅᴇᴀᴅly blaze.
Next week, Coronation Street will air on ITV for one hour from 8pm on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
