Bernie calls Fern for more dodgy jobs in Coronation Street
It’s a risky idea (Pictures: ITV)

Bernie Winters (Jane Hazlegrove) recently met a lady called Fern (Gabrielle Glaister) in Coronation Street – and they look exactly alike.

In a storyline pitched by Jane, who is often mistaken for Gabrielle and vice versa, Bernie met Fern after picking up her posh jacket from the shopping centre.

Once they had established they share a lot (like, a lot) in common, Bernie and Fern have decided to use their doppelgänger quirks to their advantage.

At No.7, Aadi (Adam Hussain) urges Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) to make a go of things with Bernie if that’s what he really wants.

Calling round at No.5, Dev admits to Bernie that he thinks about her a lot and reckons they should give their relationship another chance.

Bernie is pleased, but when Dev admits he feels a bit uncomfortable having her back as his cleaner, Bernie calls Fern and tells her that she’d be up for anymore jobs she can throw her way.

Working with Fern is a risky idea – but Bernie knows it’ll earn her good cash.

Is she making a mistake by continuing this?

Will she live to regret it if Dev finds out?
