Coronation Street viewers reckon they've worked out that dastardly businessman Stephen Reid could be about to kill again after sinister scenes in Wednesday night's episode (November 30). After plotting to fleece his mum Audrey Roberts out of her cash in the ITV soap, Stephen started working in secret as a delivery driver for a fast food company.
In Bolton he was accosted by teenagers who stole his delivery box, work phone and demanded money. As Stephen spotted family friend Elaine Jones approaching he attempted to race away on his moped. But in his haste he lost control and went sprawling across the road.
Kindly Elaine rushed to his aid and in hospital he protested that he didn't want Audrey to know what had happened. Elaine then insisted that he come back to stay with her, and it appears she dropped a clanger as she revealed her plans to sell her house.
