ITV Coronation Street death ‘sealed’ – and fans are heartbroken
Coronation Street viewers are convinced that a member of the Platt family will be killed off in an upcoming house fire stunt on the ITV soap in twist "nobody would see coming"
Coronation Street fans are certain a beloved member of the Platt family may meet a tragic end in the near future.
In the new year, the cobbles will be shaken by a shocking house fire, and residents near the soap’s set have been warned about the filming of a dramatic fire stunt. They’ve been advised to expect loud explosions and fire effects, but reassured not to panic.
The notice also revealed that the show will recreate a house fire, complete with a triggered explosion. A source told the Metro: “The early part of the year is going to kick off the new era of Corrie with a bang pretty literally and one of the show’s core families are right at the heart of the fire storyline.”
“With a new boss at the helm, the show isn’t pulling any punches and it’s fair to say some fan-favourite lives are on the line.”, reports Plymouth Live.
Recent photos obtained by The Sun show the drama unfolding as a fire ravages the Platt’s home, No. 8. However, it’s unclear if the neighbouring house, belonging to Sally and Tim Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor and Joe Duttine), will also be affected.
Several cast members have shared behind-the-scenes photos from the night shoots, including Bethany Platt actress Lucy Fallon, who posted a snap with co-stars Paddy Bever (Max Turner) and Julia Goulding (Shona Platt), all trying to stay warm in dry robes. Meanwhile, Coronation Street’s very own Sally Carman-Duttine who plays the gutsy Abi Webster, has been teasing fans with behind-the-scenes snippets.
She took to social media posting a pic of her survival kit for the night shoots – heat patches and body warmers, captioned simply with “Night shoots”.
Now, the fans are piecing together the clues, certain they’ve cracked the case on who will be next to perish in an infernal plot twist and it’s a real tearjerker. On a Corrie Facebook fan page buzzing over the fiery storyline, one Corrie addict posted: “Yet another fire if my street was so dangerous I’d move fast! “.
Another threw in their two pence with a prediction: “I think someone will be killed off.” A third detective-in-the-making added their hunch: “Could be Shona,” and yet another fan teased with a tantalising theory: “Nobody would see it coming..”
