Coronation Street fans have said they have 'switched off' amid the latest twist in Stephen Reid's storyline. It's fair to say that viewers of the ITV soap have been screaming at their TVs over the character, played by Todd Boyce, after he became Weatherfield's latest serial killer.
After killing both Leo Thompkins, who was close to outing the floundering businessman's money woes and plans to fleece his much-loved mother Audrey Roberts, and his dad Teddy, who knew he was lying about Leo fleeing to Canada as planned, Stephen has now set his sights on a new victim.
Stephen has been working at Underworld and factory boss Carla Connor has been increasingly getting under his skin. And this couldn't have been more obvious when Carla called a meeting in which she announced that his niece, Sarah Barlow, had been re-hired and will be Underworld's head of design.
