Coronation Street's cast and crew have today filmed two different outcomes to Frank Foster's rape trial.

The soap's team were out on location in Manchester this afternoon to film the conclusion of Frank's court case, which is expected to unfold on screen in a few weeks' time.

One scene recorded by the crew saw Frank (Andrew Lancel) leave court a free man after being found not guilty - celebrating outside on the steps with mum Anne (Gwen Taylor) and girlfriend Sally (Sally Dynevor) by his side.

Frank's victim Carla (Alison King), meanwhile, appeared devastated as she left the building with Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) and Maria Connor (Samia Ghadie).

However, the Daily Mail reports that another scene has been filmed showing Anne and Sally distraught outside the building following a guilty verdict from the jury - leaving Frank in custody to await sentencing.

Frank attacked Carla in the autumn after she called off their wedding. However, he has managed to convince some Weatherfield locals - including Sally - that he is innocent.

Last month, a tabloid report claimed to have revealed the outcome of the storyline but the rumours were unconfirmed.
