As Christina convinces George to report Summer, all the ‘clues’ that Christina ‘killed’ Theo in Coronation Street

Christina was acting rather suss

In tonight’s episode of Coronation Street (Wednesday, May 20), Christina persuaded George to snitch on Summer to the police in a bid to protect themselves.

Christina had just been asked some questions at the station, before coming back all flustered and giving George some words of advice.

George then approached DS Connor-Swain when she was off duty and decided to snitch on Summer. But, is this just to protect Christina’s own ‘killer’ secret?

Christina encouraged George to snitch on Summer in Coronation Street

Tonight in Weatherfield, Lisa turned up to speak to Christina and asked if she could go down to the station to clarify some details from the night of Theo’s death.

Christina agreed and headed off to help the police with their investigations. However, when she returned, she was really flustered. She just told George that she had to fill in some gaps as she’d forgotten she’d gone to get petrol before she picked Todd up that night.

Brushing off the police inquiries as nothing to worry about, Christina then gave George a few words of wisdom. She suggested that he rethinked telling the police about Summer’s journal.

With George being the only other top suspect right now, the police looking further into Summer could help his case.

Outside on the Street, George then pulled an off duty DS Connor-Swain off to one side and admitted that he had something to tell her. She said it would stay between them.

All the ‘clues’ so far that Christina could be Theo’s killer

Time to kill

Christina definitely had time to kill when she nipped out of the house to fetch Todd on the night of Theo’s death. During this time, she was alone, now telling the police that she’d forgotten all about going to get petrol in between.

With nobody watching her on her way to get Todd though, and with Christina missing out this huge piece of information, it almost seems like she’s hiding something. Did she make a quick detour and bump Theo off before fetching Todd?

Overly protective of George

Christina also seems to be really fretting about George. While it’s normal to be concerned about your partner, being more concerned than they are about themselves makes us wonder.

Is Christina fearing that George might do time for a crime she committed? Was she so keen to get rid of George’s bloody sweater because she knew that it looked bad but he didn’t do it – she did?

Pinning it on Summer

George and Christina were really close with Summer until they’ve suddenly gone against her and are now ready to pin Theo’s death on her.

Considering they all hated Theo and wanted him gone, their reaction over Summer’s journal entry was a bit baffling. There’s proving your innocence by throwing someone else under the bus, and then there’s taking desperate action to get away with a crime. Which is it in this case?

What else happened in Coronation Street tonight?

Daniel accused David

With Truthteller still trolling him online (and knowing some rather specific and personal information about him), Daniel vented to Jodie in the bistro.

Jodie then added more fuel to the fire. She told Daniel that David was looking over at them. Remembering the comment about him and Max, Daniel jumped to the conclusion that David was behind the messages.

It turned out that he'd gotten the wrong end of the stick though. He was then forced to apologise.

Sarah got drunk

With the Street remembering Craig on the one year anniversary of his death, the factory workers were a tad distracted from their work.

Sarah was stressed and had a go at everyone. Carla then tried to smooth things over by buying everyone a drink in the pub after their shift.

But, Sarah decided to down a whole bottle of wine to herself. And, Carla then had to take her home while worrying that she might not be ready to work so soon after the attack.
