Coronation Street fans ‘work out’ Stephen’s next murder victim – and how he’ll do it

Who's a gonner?

In last night’s episode of Coronation Street (Monday May 1, 2023), Tim stopped Elaine from marrying Stephen in Las Vegas. But Stephen managed to charm Tim round in the end.

Stephen told Tim that he truly loved his mum and would set up a prenup so that money concerns would be removed from the situation.

Now, Coronation Street fans have ‘worked out’ Stephen’s next murder victim – and how he’ll commit the murder.

Stephen arranged a prenup for him and Elaine

Last night, Elaine and Stephen planned on marrying each other in Las Vegas. They arranged to fly out and tie the knot that following evening.

Tim begged Elaine to reconsider and see through Stephen but she was adamant that she would be marrying him.

Things soon escalated when Tim pretended to get on board with the couple’s plan. He offered to drive them both to the airport.

However, with his mum in the car and Stephen having not caught up, Tim drove off and kidnapped Elaine.

Delaying them from getting their flight, Tim tried to get through to his mum but she told him that they’d get the flight another time.

Elaine then panicked as she told Tim that she needed her blood pressure pills, making Tim bring her home.

Back at home, Stephen told Tim that he loved Elaine and definitely didn’t want her money. He then offered to draw up a prenup so that Elaine’s money would be safe.
