While tampering with the brakes on Kev’s car, the vehicle then lowered itself onto Carl’s body and crushed him. Carl’s in a bad way but is still hanging on by a thread, but could his injury suggest that multiple villains die this week? Carl was crushed under the car (Credit: ITV) Carl’s car injury in Coronation Street Carl Webster’s exit from Weatherfield took a dangerous turn after what initially looked like one final act of recklessness at the garage. Before the incident, he had already spent the day stirring up trouble and tying up loose ends. But, things escalated when he slipped under Kevin’s car and began tampering with the brakes. What Carl didn’t realise was that someone was close by, watching his every move. Article Continues Below Read all the latest Spoilers As he worked underneath the vehicle, a shadowy figure appeared nearby. In a sudden and terrifying moment, the car was lowered without warning. Carl was still beneath it, leaving him trapped and crushed under its weight. The severity of the situation quickly became clear. In the next scene, Carl was no longer at the garage, but slumped in the back of a car, visibly injured and struggling to speak properly. Barely conscious, he slurred that he needed a hospital, showing just how serious his condition had become. The driver was then revealed to be Ronnie Bailey, who delivered a chilling message about second chances and made it clear he isn’t someone who offers them lightly. His involvement has left a major question hanging. Did Ronnie cause the garage incident, or arrive after it happened? Either way, Carl’s condition is critical, and his fate is now hanging in the balance.Don't miss a single story!

Carl’s in a bad way (Credit: ITV) Coronation Street fan theory predicts multiple villains die by end of week With Carl Webster already seeming to be nearing death, Corrie fans have ‘ruled him out’ of being the dead body discovered during Friday’s upcoming scenes. They don’t think the death would be so ‘obvious’ this early on in the week. Some are now believing that Carl dies but he’s not the body that is found. Instead, there could be multiple villain deaths uncovered by the time the week is out. A new Coronation Street fan theory on Reddit suggested just this: “Have we considered the possibility that multiple people will die this week? After watching the episode and seeing what happened to Carl it seems like that could be a possibility? “What is the point in doing mysteries with the other characters if they already show what basically is a death sentence injury for Carl if the other characters are safe? “So maybe we’ll get more than one death. Of course Carl might survive but let’s be realistic, that kind of brute force trauma is basically game over.” Is this theory onto something? Is a huge double death twist in the works? Friday’s episode (May 1) should hopefully give us the answers! What else happened in tonight's episode? George and Christina worried about Todd George and Christina could be seen inside the pub worrying about Todd. Christina was then ditched by George just when their food was served, with George rushing off to check on Todd. Of course, viewers who watched the previous night's episode will know exactly what happened there!
