Coronation Street fans could be in for a shock as the soap may have hinted at an unexpected murder suspect following Joel Deering's death. It appears that someone closely linked to the investigation might be the real killer, attempting to pin the blame on another character. Joel was found dead last month, his body discovered in a river after an attack.
But who is the murderer? Several characters are under suspicion, including DS Swain, Ed and Ronnie Bailey, Dee-Dee Bailey, and even Carla Connor. However, could the actual culprit be someone else entirely? In tonight's episode, Ryan retrieves a police file left by Kit at the Rovers Return bar. During their conversation, Kit jokingly warns Ryan he would have had to arrest him if he'd looked inside the file.
The discussion then shifted to Ryan's ex-girlfriend Daisy, with Ryan confessing he's not over her yet. Kit comforted him, saying it takes time to heal, especially considering what they've been through together. Ryan admits he still misses her, to which Kit advises him not to dwell on it and suggests they go out for a drink later.
With hints that Kit might be interested in Daisy, could he be planning to permanently remove Ryan from the picture? After all, a jail sentence is a surefire way to eliminate competition. Could Kit be behind Joel's murder, now trying to frame Ryan to clear his path to Daisy? Jacob Roberts, who portrays Kit on the show, has intriguingly hinted at his character's enigmatic backstory in a chat with The M.
