The previews for next Friday night, April 18 say that: "Rita's shocked to learn that Dennis is in hospital after being beaten up. She goes to visit him and tells him he has some explaining to do."
And for the second episode next Friday night it says: "Rita's unsympathetic when Dennis tells her how it all went wrong with Gloria and he ended up sleeping on the streets but she later allows him to stay on her sofa, making it clear it's only temporary."
With Tina's upcoming murder much on my Corrie-fan mind, I'm wondering if Dennis has been brought back to be involved in Tina's murder storyline somehow. Might he even be the one to do her in?
Would Rita take him back in, though? Really?
