Coronation Street star Colson Smith has revealed why it was the "right thing" to kill off his character Craig Tinker after the beloved police officer met a devastating end in tonight's episode (Wednesday, May 21).
Colson has played the lovable Craig for 14 years, but his time as the Weatherfield policeman was cut short after Craig was killed in the line of duty at the hands of evil Mick Michaelis (Joe Layton).
