Coronation Street fans were absolutely gobsmacked during last night’s (Wednesday) double-bill of episodes, when Eileen Grimshaw was filmed sitting on the loo in the Rovers.

The taxi coordinator had nipped into the toilets while having a drink with newly returned Moira Pollock and didn’t expect Liz McDonald to pop her head over her cubicle door while on the throne.
Liz was hiding in the ladies, worried that Moira would tear a strip off her after Liz gave evidence at the Medical Centre’s practice manager’s tribunal branding her emotionally unstable.
The former Rovers landlady pleaded with Eileen to help her escape unnoticed but Eileen hadn’t forgiven Liz for insulting her husband, evil Pat Phelan.
But viewers got a LOT more than they bargained for when they were treated to shot of Eileen sat on the toilet!
They took to Twitter to share their disbelief at the hilarious scene.
“OMG! Eileen sat on the bog!” one stunned fan tweeted.
“I’ve missed a couple of Corries and all of the sudden Billy’s a smackhead and we’re treated to the sight of Eileen having a dump?” commented another.
And a third said: “Just catching up on the 2nd #Corrie and am being treated to Eileen having a poo.

We’re pretty sure Eileen was only doing a number one, having said to Liz: “now close your ears, I’m having a wee” but some viewers imaginations had clearly gone into overdrive.
Later, Eileen headed back into the bogs complete with a bottle of Pinot and two glasses as she too tired of Moira.
Fans praised the comedy scenes, saying it was much more like old Corrie after all the much darker drama of recent times.

As the two reconnected, Liz suggested Eileen throw a ‘getting to know Pat party’ so his friends and neighbours could get to know him better after Eileen confessed the hatred towards her husband was getting her down.
