Coronation Street characters Emma and Faye were recently involved in a car accident which saw them run over an old man named Ted, but Ted died shortly afterwards. Could they be facing prison?
In Monday’s episode (January 3) the two girls were returning home from a party with learner driver Faye behind the wheel and Emma supervising. However Emma was still drunk from the party.
As they drove down a street, Ted walked out in front of the car after dropping his shopping and Faye knocked him over.
He appeared to be okay but he already had a broken leg. Ted assured the girls he was fine and just had a small knock to the head.
He refused to go to the hospital but accepted a lift home from Faye and Emma.
Emma wanted to go and check on him and they later paid him a visit but were horrified to find him dead.
Emma wanted to get help, but Faye feared she would go back to prison and begged her to cover their connection to Ted.
The two girls cleaned up any forensic evidence in the flat and left Ted, hoping he would be found by a family member.
