Coronation Street viewers were stunned as Shona Romsey was revealed as Clayton Higgs' mother in a huge cliffhanger on Monday night.
At the end of tonight's first episode, Shona - who had confronted Gail Platt after finding out that David was behind Anna Windass' horrific burns after planning to blow up Clayton - went to visit her murderer son in prison.
"Hello mum," he said - and viewers weren't sure how to react.
"Oh. My. Giddy. Aunt. I'm shocked. Didn't see that one coming!," tweeted one excited fan.

Another said: "Oh my actual god."
While others argued: "How is Shona Clayton's mum? She looks old enough to be his sister not his mum. Isn't he about 17 and I would say she is about 27?!"
Shona hinted to David's mum Gail that she could be ready to tell Anna the truth - and fans aren't sure how to feel about the latest development.
One viewer tweeted: "@itvcorrie Shona the thief? Suddenly turned saint Shona?"
Another added: "Shona on slightly shaky moral ground preaching about the law #corrie"

A different userspeculated: "Clearly shona is related to Clayton somehow... she's only p***ed off because she knows David was trying to KILL calyton! #Corrie (sic)"
In an up-coming twist in the storyline which has seen Anna and Kevin Webster brought to near ruin, the street's latest mysterious new-comer will discover the truth - only for her own secrets to be revealed.
Having already hinted at a secret connection to David's dead wife, Kylie, when she was seen visiting her grave, Shona is set to reveal all as she discovers the truth behind the day of the explosive crash.

Finding herself alone in the Platt's house, she can't resist having a root around to see what tasty gossip she can find.
However, while Shona is having a nosey around, Gail and Sarah return home - forcing an embarrassed Shona to hide up the stairs in a panic.
Unaware they're not alone, the two Platt women can't help but voice their worries for David - as his recent behaviour is causing people to ask questions.
Worried that people will discover his failed plan to kill Clayton, which led to him causing Anna untold amounts of pain, Sarah and Gail talk a little too candidly.
At that point, Shona - who has been unable to escape as the two talk amongst themselves - bursts out of hiding in shock.

Flabbergasted that they've let slip the secret, Gail and Sarah try to keep Shona calm, begging her to keep quiet.
After she flees the house, Shona and Gail talk in the street.
Worried she might destroy her family, Gail is blown-away by Shona's own shocking revelations.
