Kevin Webster was seen telling a huge lie about his testicular cancer in tonight's Coronation Street - and fans were fuming with his behaviour.
It's been a tough year for the Websters, but it looked like things had taken a positive turn when it was revealed in tonight's episode that he'd been given the all clear. However, it seems like he's keeping the good news to himself...
Earlier in the episode, Kevin was seen heading to his appointment alone, as Abi was forced to attend a breakdown call. Abi was later left fuming when she realised Carl Webster could have attended the breakdown, meaning she'd completely missed Kev's "life-changing" consultation.

Following his appointment, Kevin and Abi headed to Speed Daal for a date night, and it was there that we learnt that Kevin had been given the all clear. As Abi headed to the bathroom, Kevin was approached by Dr. Gaddas, who congratulated him on getting the all clear.
As he thanked her, Kevin then asked if she could just keep it between them, as he hasn't yet told his family. "Of course not, I wouldn't break patient confidentiality," she said.
Despite Kevin telling the doctor he'd be telling his family about the all clear, it doesn't look like he's planning on doing it anytime soon.
"What was that about?" Abi asked as she returned from the bathroom. Fans of course, expected him to tell Abi the good news, but instead he let her believe he still has the illness.
"She was just saying how sorry she was," Kevin told Abi, as she was seen getting emotional during his 'sick lie'.
"Kev, what ever lies ahead, I'm here," an emotional Abi said, as the two expressed their love for one another. But how long will Kevin keep the lie up?
Fans were disgusted with the character, as they took to X, formerly known as Twitter to share their disappointment. "kevin webster is on my hit list omg I HATE HIM!! #Corrie," exclaimed one. Another angry fan tweeted: "Woahhhhhh... not Kev lying, because he knows Abi will leave him if he is in the all clear. How MAD!"
A third exclaimed: "Kev showing his true colours! How could he stoop so low?!" as a fourth said: "Sickening behaviour from Kev!"
Kevin's lie comes after he continues to grow suspicious of his brother Carl and Abi's actions. Earlier in the week, Kevin picked up Abi's phone and spotted a flirtatious message that Carl had recently sent.
However, spoilers from next weekreveal that Kevin's lie is set to be exposed as he admits to his brother Carl that he's got the all clear and needs no more cancer treatment, despite his wife Abi Franklin being under the impression he needs more chemotherapy.
Soon enough, Kevin makes up to his sister Debbie and pal Tyrone that his cancer is unresponsive and he has to have further treatment. But feeling the pressure of his lies, he admits to Tyrone that he lied and his cancer has gone.
Coronation Streetairs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
