Theo Silverton’s killer is set to be revealed to Coronation Street viewers next week, but could Liam Connor be the culprit?

Next week on the cobbles, a huge dinner party is set to uncover what really happened to abusive Theo.

But, could one of the key suspects Gary actually know more than he’s made out?

Gary Windass is a top Theo murder suspect

Gary Windass is one of six official Coronation Street Theo murder suspects. He joins Todd, Summer, George, Christina and Danielle on this list.

The evidence so far does make Gary look dodgy – he told the police that he was at the builder’s yard at the time of Theo’s death but Tim and Sally’s photo shut down his story.

He also deleted the CCTV at the yard, and a flashback shown to viewers saw him standing at the top of the scaffolding with a weapon – staring down at Theo’s body.

Gary’s also very obviously keeping secrets about that night, with Sarah Platt in the know.

With the truth set to come out at a dinner party next week, Gary is firmly seated at the table. But, did he actually kill Theo? Or, was Theo already dead by the time he found him?

Coronation Street fan theory predicts Liam Connor Theo murder twist

Gary either killed Theo, covered his murder up for someone else, or ever so unfortunately happened to be an innocent bystander (with a weapon) at the scene of the crime.

Despite no obvious motive for wanting Theo dead, a new Corrie fan theory has suggested that Liam Connor was the one to kill Theo. And, that Gary and Sarah helped him cover his tracks.

If Maria found out, she’d be filled with worry – hence Gary possibly keeping the truth from her. And, it would be quite the twist.

Taking to Facebook, one adamant fan commented: “It’s Liam, Gary hides the evidence.”

But, could young Liam Connor be behind Weatherfield’s latest murder mystery?
