Coronation Street has revealed that Joel Deering was murdered and several suspects have emerged, but fans believe they’ve figured out the identity of the killer.
Coronation Street has recently unveiled a captivating murder mystery surrounding the nefarious character Joel Deering, played by Calum Lill.
Initially, it was believed that Joel may have taken his own life after his sinister actions were revealed and he disappeared from the scene. However, a shocking twist on Monday night confirmed that Joel had been murdered, prompting a thorough police investigation where everyone has become a potential suspect.
In the coming weeks, Coronation Street will present a series of dramatic flashbacks to help viewers piece together the mystery. The storyline will revisit the night of September 27, a pivotal moment in one of the soap’s most significant mysteries.
As several beloved characters are implicated, viewers will see them highlighted on a crime wall photo. This week, the first suspects revealed include Ronnie Bailey, portrayed by Vinta Morgan, who is the uncle of Joel’s distressed fiancée Dee-Dee Bailey, played by Channique Sterling-Brown, and Mason, played by Luca Toolan, a bully who has recently shown signs of reform.
On Wednesday night, the first thrilling flashback will air, allowing ITV viewers to relive the tragic night of Joel’s disappearance and the events that unfolded. As more evidence comes to light, audiences will witness Officer Kit Green, portrayed by Jacob Roberts, struggling under the pressure, while DS Lisa Swain, played by Vicky Myers, who was compelled to step back from the investigation, begins her own inquiries, according to reports from the Liverpool Echo.
As the storyline thickens with unexpected twists and turns, the big question looms: who is really responsible for Joel’s death, and how long will it take for Kit and Lisa to catch the killer?
Soap fans have already started to theorize about the real culprit, suggesting that both Ronnie and Mason might just be red herrings. One viewer shared their theory on social media: “I just had a thought. I think Joel’s dad might have killed him. Remember when Joel told Lauren that his dad used to hurt him? Just a theory.”
In response, another user agreed, saying, “I thought it was the dad too,” while another chimed in, “Me too!” A different fan speculated, “…or maybe his mum, since he’s fallen from grace and ruined her life?”
Meanwhile, another soap fan speculated: “It’s obvious they didn’t kill Joel. I think the murderer will be someone unexpected, like Joel’s parents or his ex-wife. #Corrie.”
Another user shared their own theory: “I love this idea. Joel’s dad could turn out to be another shady Deering. He pockets the £15,000 and decides to eliminate his disappointing son at the same time! I’m all for it! #Corrie #WhoMurderedJoelDeering.”
Additionally, one more fan theorized: “I believe it’s Joel’s dad. They likely had an argument, and Joel confessed to something from the past. His dad may have lost control in a fit of rage. #Corrie.”
