Coronation Street's Steve McDonald causes a wild panic next week, when Tyrone Dobbs' son Dorin disappears from underneath his nose.

At No.9, Steve sets himself up in front of the telly while promising to keep an eye on Dorin.

However, the comfy cabbie ends up snoozing on the job – leaving 3-year-old Dorin to his own devices…

"If anyone should be kipping, it should be Dorin! It's thoughtless of Steve to fall asleep with a toddler in his care," our Corrie source points out.

"And it doesn't take much to imagine the terror that goes through him and the rest of the family when it becomes clear that Dorin really is nowhere to be found…"

As the search for Dorin begins, the Dobbs clan grow concerned that the little one might have clambered into an old fridge that has now been taken away. If proven true, could Tyrone's boy be in serious danger?

Before this, Steve makes the bold decision to move out of the home that he shares with Tracy until their divorce is finalised. But that's not the only announcement that takes his ex-wife by surprise that day…

"Steve means business. He turns up at Preston's Petals with Cassie to tell Tracy that he has a copy of the business valuation, and wants his share.

"Tracy is livid and quickly suspects that Amy handed the information over to her dad. Then not long after that, Steve says that he's moving out – it's a lot for Tracy to process."

Once Steve packs his bags, Tyrone reveals that he's happy for the dad-of-one to move in with Cassie. Not everyone agrees with Ty's decision though, as Fiz struggles to hide her annoyance at the sudden change.

But with Dorin missing, has Steve already wrecked his relationship with Cassie's family? And where could Tyrone's mini-me have possibly gone?
