Coronation Street fans have predicted that an innocent character will be 'going down for murder' after Rufus Donahue's death is confirmed. During Wednesday night's trip to the cobbles, viewers of the ITV soap saw the businessman face an unknown visitor at his home.
Rufus was seen in his plush abode, which boasts its own swimming pool, as the music blasted out while he waited to see Michael Bailey who he had offered a fancy new job in London.
It came after things were ramped up a notch between Rufus and Stephen Ried who was forced to agree to Rufus’ demand for 50% of the profits from the Nippersnapper deal after he learnt of the serial killer's plans to take over Underworld by drugging Carla Connor with LSD to make her think he psychosis had returned.
