ITV Coronation Street fans spot flaws as Stephen burns Leo's clothes in murder cover-up

Eagle-eyed Coronation Street fans think they have spotted a few flaws in Stephen Reid's cover-up after he killed Leo Thompkins. Viewers of the ITV soap were shocked earlier this week when a scuffle led to the character, played by Todd Boyce, pushing Leo to his death.

Leo, played by Joe Frost, arrived on the cobbles back in October 2021 as a new love interest for Jenny Connor. The Rovers Return landlady fell for the younger man following her split from her now late husband Johnny Connor. More recently, the pair got engaged as Jenny finally agreed to leave her much-loved home to start a new life in Canada with Leo.

However, the character's suspicions of Stephen Reid appear to have got in the way as Corrie fans watched Leo plunge to his death after a scuffle with the Canadian businessman. After catching him lying about staying in a hotel when he really slept in his car, Leo discovered that Stephen had also shared a kiss with his fiancee Jenny Connor while they were on a break.
