Coronation Street confirm when Joel’s killer is revealed – and it’s just days away
Coronation Street fans are on the edge of their seats as the countdown begins to reveal who murdered Joel Deering, with two more Weatherfield locals joining the list of potential culprits.
The upcoming week promises a series of gripping episodes that will unveil the final suspects in Joel’s (played by Calum Lill) murder case, leading up to the dramatic unmasking of the killer next Friday (November 15).
As shown in the thrilling new trailer, viewers can expect a sequence of intense flashbacks that build up to an explosive climax, where a bloodied and beaten Joel is seen fearing for his life on the railway tracks.
In addition to the suspenseful episode, ITVX will host a live special at 9pm immediately after the show on Friday, featuring exclusive live interviews with the cast and reactions to the revelation of Joel’s murderer.
Sharon Marshall, writer, broadcaster and Queen of Soaps at This Morning, will be presenting live from the cobbles. As we enter next week, with Joel’s murder still unsolved, the police are feeling the heat to solve the case, reports Plymouth Live.
Joel’s aggrieved ex Dee-Dee Bailey (Channique Sterling-Brown), her father Ed Bailey (Trevor Michael Georges) and Uncle Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan) have all made it onto the suspect list.
They’re joined by bad boy Mason (Luca Toolan), DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) who was taken off the case after Joel’s involvement with her daughter Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin) came to light, and the detective leading the investigation, DC Kit Green (Jacob Roberts).
However, on Monday (November 11), in another revealing flashback, viewers saw Carla Connor (Alison King) leaving the factory on the night Joel vanished. Initially, fans speculated that she might be hiding something, but as she calls out to someone, it’s revealed to be Max Turner (Paddy Bever) and Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton) lurking outside in the dead of night.
What were they doing on the street on the night of September 27 and could they be involved in Joel’s murder? With Weatherfield’s crime wall photo now filled and all evidence presented to the viewers, the real killer’s identity will be unveiled in just a few days.
