Latest Coronation Street spoilers can reveal that Stephen Reid steals evidence to cover his tracks. But, as he attempts to recover the proof of his own crimes, it looks as though he might be caught out.
Last week’s episodes revealed that Rufus’s widow, Lou, suspected foul play in her husband’s death. She told Stephen that she found a tie pin by the pool where Rufus died.
This tie pin was Stephen’s, left at the scene of the crime. Stephen tried to talk Lou out of her suspicions, but she was adamant that she would go to the police.

Both tie pin and watch could be damning evidence of Stephen’s crimes. Will he face the music at last, or will he wriggle out of this one too?
