Yahoo News Coronation Street airs Angela Griffin cameo return as Fiona Middleton
Coronation Street aired some dramatic scenes for Emma Brooker tonight (August 21), as she attended her dad's funeral... and learned that he wasn't her real dad.
After tearing into her brother Morgan for keeping the truth secret, Steve McDonald told Emma that he just received the DNA test results and discovered that he is her true father.
An upset Emma called her mother via Skype after watching a video message from her earlier in the day, which meant that viewers were treated to two cameo appearances from Angela Griffin reprising her role as Fiona Middleton!
No way! Fiona's back #corrie

Unfortunately, it was just those two scenes and not a full return, but we did get a powerful scene where Emma defiantly told her mother than she had had enough lies and was going to live her life without her family.
But what stood out to viewers more was the quality of the Skype call, which was just standard footage on the laptop screen. Fans had a giggle imagining how good the internet must be on the Cobbles (we still wouldn't move there, though – too many murders).
Wow Skype's improved #Corrie

Is that Sky_pe thing 4D? It looks like Fiona is in the same room as Emma. 🤔 #Corrie
