ITV Share By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 6 theories on who could die in Coronation Street flashforward scenes A death has been teased Features Share By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks has revealed that a death flashforward will soon air on our screens. And, there will be five potential victims on the list… Here are six huge fan theories on the characters who could be at risk. Carl has destroyed many bridges (Credit: ITV) 1. Carl Carl Webster isn’t a very popular guy on the cobbles right now. Tyrone doesn’t even want to look at him after realising that he was the one behind his hit and run and injuries. Kevin also can’t stand to be around his half-brother after realising that he’d planned to do a runner with Debbie’s money. And, to add to this, he even framed Debbie for the Corriedale crash so that he wouldn’t get the blame.

But, could one of these people finish him off? One fan suggested: “If it’s Carl who gets murdered. The five suspects in question are Kevin, Abi, Ronnie, Tracy and Tyrone.” Coronation Street flashforward 2. Theo The same fan also said: “Or if it’s Theo, it’s gotta be Todd, Summer, Bernie, Gary and George.” Billy Mayhew was the only person who knew the truth about Theo’s abuse of Todd. Now that Theo failed to save him in the crash and watched him die in the burning minibus, his secret is safe. But, secrets always have a habit of coming out in Soapland. When it does, Theo will be the Street’s No.1 enemy. Will someone serve him his comeuppance though? A Corrie fan on social media said: “I can see Theo getting the fatal push down the stairs by Todd when he reveals what he did to Billy.” Megan’s still grooming Will (Credit: ITV) 3. Megan Megan Walsh is grooming teen Will Driscoll. But, she has no idea that Will has a killer in the family – Maggie. Will himself has also proven to have a violent streak — attacking Daniel on Christmas Day. While nobody knows about Megan and Will’s relationship, she’s playing a dangerous game. Will she soon pay the price? A fan wondered: “If it’s Megan, it’s gotta be Ben, Eva, Will, Lauren and Maggie.” Coronation Street flashfoward 4. Kevin Poor Kevin’s had a hard time recently after his cheating wife Abi left him for his half-brother Carl. We know, right?! And, then, Kevin found out all about Carl’s dodgy dealings, hit and run of Ty, and his attempt to frame Debbie. Yet, nobody believed him. But, every hero has to face a villain to bring them down. What if the villain beats them to it though? One person wrote: “Carl murders Kevin is my guess. So he makes his control over Debbie even stronger.” Could Carl bump off Kev? Summer has already lost a lot (Credit: ITV) 5. Summer Summer’s lost three of her dads over the years, with the latest being Billy Mayhew. She’s had a lot to deal with at such a young age, and misery seems to follow her. Could it strike once again but this time finish her off? One fan morbidly joked: “Summer would be funny, full family knockout.” Coronation Street flashforward 6. Lauren Lauren’s already been part of two murder whodunnits (one her own although it turned out she never actually died). The second was that of Joel Deering’s. It’s a stretch, but could she be involved in a third? And, could she be the victim once more? For real, this time? One fan on Reddit feared: “If Lauren does get murdered for real this time it will bring heartbreak but I hope she survives and takes care of Frankie forever.” Read more: Coronation Street fan theory predicts Todd will murder Theo – and George will help him dispose of body Share Good to Know Share By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 By Tamzin Meyer Jan 9 2026 Previous Story Next Story
